Ed please can you explain the situation with Rossiter. He was apparently the next big thing before the hamstring injury, played in the U21's at 15 and very highly thought of throughout. Is the player pushing for a move or have Liverpool just decided he's not up to it?

Ruud

{Ed001's Note - he was struggling due to the injuries and found himself behind Stewart and Chirivella in the pecking order. The progress expected from him was just not happening, so it is best for all parties he goes somewhere that he can play regularly and rebuild himself.}

I think Rossiter was held back by his lack of physical development as well. I think that's the same thing that may hold Chirivella back. The first thing I'd have Pedro doing is bulking up in the gym like how Sterling did in his second season. Or he'll just continue to get knocked around like he did against Swansea.

That's why I fancy Stewart and Brannagan to make it ahead of Rossiter and Chirivella. Although physical presence isn't everything, you've got to be in Xavi or Pirlo's league to make it at the top when you have no outstanding physical attribute. When Stewart or Brannagan go in for a challenge, it's full blooded and tough. Chirivella and Rossiter just bounce off people and until they are tougher, men's football will be too much for them as defensive midfielders.

It's the same reason why Allen has failed to stamp down a position in our midfield. Klopp has actually pushed him forward into a more advanced role because he cannot dominate a midfield.

Very few midfielders as short, slow and weak as Pedro and Rossiter make it in English football though. The only ones I can think of are Leon Britton and Cesc Fabregas of the current crop. The young lads will lose out on every 50/ 50 so they need to either bulk up or become more intelligent in terms of their positional play.

It's a shame because they're very technically gifted and they spot danger well. They just lack the presence to deal with that danger.

Hi Eds, is Ante Coric a viable option if Countino leaves?

I think your looking at it through rose tinted glasses teabag, I feel sorry for Ings but he's never been good enough for LFC but now with his knee injury history he will never be the same. At the minute Origi is not going to improve us and Sturridge's body has we all know is unfortunately not up to it.

You don't win anything without a top striker so it's time to get ruthless and get rid of the dead wood.

I don't understand the mentality of we already have 4 strikers so don't need anymore. if it's a upgrade get them. Ings and Origi are not good enough to push LFC to where they need to be so do something about it and go all out to get a top striker. Same with anywhere on the pitch if it's a improvement get them and sell what we don't need.

Do u know why Harry Wilson is not getting a look in Ed, U23 captain and scoring plenty of goals? Does Klopp not rate him or is it more he's physically or mentally not strong enough yet?

Ruud

{Ed001's Note - he is just a bit behind some of the others for now, in the pecking order, due to their performances when they got a chance earlier in the season. He is defo in Klopp's thinking for the future.}
