Ed2 reading online that lfc had scouts at the leverkusen game, watching Jonathan Tah apparently. Anything too confirm this?

{Ed002's Note - Maybe they have Brendan Rodgers doing the scouting? This sounds like a couple of years ago when he was with Hamburg. With so many centre backs at Liverpool (Lovren, Sakho, Skrtel, Ilori, Wisdom and Matip arriving in addition to any youngsters coming through) it strikes me as unlikely that Liverpool would look to Tah who has only been with Leverkusen this season. I can think of other players who might be of more interest in the BL team, Bellarabi perhaps?}

LFC should send their scouts on a one-way trip to Timbuktu for all the dross they seem to recommend.

Hey ed, can you think of any other Leverkuzen players we might be interested in? I love them as a team, but I am not a huge fan of Bellarabi, think he is overrated.

{Ed002's Note - Karim Bellarabi is by far the most likely. Julian Brandt another possibility, as is left-back Wendell.}

Bellarabi sounds plausible ed2 your probably right there. I agree on too many cbs, but if we moved on toure, skrtel and perhaps lovren would we then move for a cb. Maybe Sule would be the better option.

{Ed002's Note - Toure will be going certainly DR but that still leaves six. The club has far too many players right now and I am not aware of plans to look for any further centre backs. If others were to go Sule strikes me as a very good option but Klipperty keeps looking at Subotic.}

He still looking at Subotic even now Matip is done mate?

{Ed002's Note - I don't expect anything to happen until Liverpool move on numerous players.}

I think Toure, Ilori, Wisdom, Caulker will all be gone in the summer, leaving LFC with Sakho, Lovren, Skrtel and the arriving Matip. Perhaps Lloyd Jones and Jordan Williams will be send out on loan again.

I see no need for any further addition in this area as we do have Joe Gomez, and even Lucas to cover for any eventualities.

Ed Any idea if skrtel to be moved on (i hope)
And ed regarding the youth defenders, i regularly follow the youth setup but i havnt really been impressed with any of the youth centerbacks. (i might be wrong) but who the managment think is good enough for the first team next season?

Many thnx.

{Ed002's Note - I am not aware of plans to move Skrtel on this summer. Klopp does not seem to be looking at grabbing any of the kiddies for the first team right now.}

Surely the looking reflects ambition and reality. We may be awash with centre backs but we're not awash with top 4 EPL level CBs. We are where we are in the league because that is the level of players we have in much of the squad and CB is a prime example of that. The worry to me is if no one wants to buy who we need to sell and finding players who will add that extra 5-6 places in the league. The challenge could be do we stick with what we have, knowing that everyone fancies themselves against our defence or try to have a clear and take a chance on some new faces.
