When Diaz signed we all assumed that we were getting Mane's replacement in early and obviously that's were he played initially but with Klopp's preference for inverted wingers and Nunez now seemingly making the left forward position his own I have s feeling that the plan now is for Diaz to replace Salah at right forward. This fits in with the theory that Salah's new contract was to protect his value and he'll be off in the summer to help finance the rebuild. Thoughts?

I’m not sure who buys Salah for the price we would want. And that’s not meant as an insult to Salah.

For some unknown reason his face doesn’t seem to fit when it comes to big money transfer talk.

He might not have been at his world class best this season in regards to performances but no other player in the squad matches his numbers for goals and assists.

And they haven’t in the whole time he’s been here.

Don’t fix what’s not broken.

Just play Nunez the centreforward thru the middle and Diaz the left winger on the left.

Why are we selling Salah?

I would've thought the same as u jude that nunez needs to play as a centre forward but now that gakpo has come in and played the central firmino role I think we look much better as a team that way, gakpo dropping deeper, he good control holds onto it well and we have extra man in midfield which helps defensively. i don't think nunez can play that role, his link play not good enough.

have no idea, but it is nice that FSG spent money so that we would have lots of options and depth.

It’s not beyond the realms of reality, but I think next season hopefully they ALL stay fit we will see the transition of the front 3 klopp will use the lot of them and don’t forget carvalho will be given mins too. Excited to see how it pans out I don’t see Mo leaving ( unless he goes the ronaldo route)

Yeh Digger but Nunez wasnt bought to play as a winger, and he hasn't really had a run of games through the middle yet.

Put Nunez back to the middle, his finishing has started to click now but he’s not getting anywhere near the amount of chances he was previously which is a shame. Get him back where the goals are and Diaz can have his left wing position back.

Put Nunez through the middle and you lose any press on the DM or link play. If we go full in for a possession style then it could work but not if we want to return to full intensity pressing. Personally prefer the high intensity style.

Isn’t the point that our forwards can play in a number of positions across the front line? I think that’s one of the benefits they bring - we pick the three in the best form until we get an injury / loss of form then we have a ready made replacement or two. We have a front five and not just a front three.

It's a shame we don't have another right back to experiment with. I'd like to see what happens if we go 4-4-2. Trent RM in a Beckham role and Diaz LM, Nunez up top with Salah as a two so they can both drift out wide but also be central enough to be a constant goal threat. It could work, but equally it could be an awful idea and we don't really want to go into another season unsure of our best lineup.

Darwin drifts inside from the left into the CF position anyway whenever Gakpo goes wide so for me, these are not fixed positions cos Klopp likes constant movement from his forwards anyway. There's nothing to worry about, really IMO.

Atm Nunez and Gakpo seem to be developing an understanding - they switch between centre and left wing and it works well imo. Add Diaz to that, and if he develops a similar understanding, then them 3 in those 2 positions will be excellent

Look I think Salah needs rested games, can't and shouldn't play every game but replaced? Nobody has come close to the numbers he reaches every single season - even this season, Liverpool have been awful, every pundit says so. They've also been praising the season Rashford is having (and he is having a good season) but Salah's numbers for goals and assists aren't exactly dwarfed in comparison are they?

I mean Liverpool have been poor this season. Salah has not been at his worldclass best since he went to AFCON, but jeez his numbers are still very impressive in spite of this so sell? Awk hell no for me.

Nunez made the position his own? What planet are you on, he’s played okay but hardly world beating just yet.
