    Blind is a DM primarily. He's a bit on the slow side to play LWB in a fast league like the Prem

    Rojo is the left footed CB they are desperate for. And can cover LB, LWB

    Seems like Ashley Young is doomed then. Backup to Valencia at RWB and no chance of playing LWB

      Under Van Gaal, at the World Cup, Blind played LWB and LCB in a 532 system the majority of the time. He only really plays that midfield role at Ajax. Would be some move by LVG if he benches a 30 million buy.

      I think people really rate Lovren as a defender and think he'll help Liverpool tighten up. Also he's a good goal threat. Liverpool only need to tighten up a bit and he's a good pick. If they tighten up just a bit more, I think he's a great pick. Mignolet's unpopular, I assume, because cheaper rotating gks tends to be more economical.

          Like Eriksen but I think Poch is building the team round Lamela. Completely torn now on the teams. Not sure which way to go.

        Nope. Should've been Diouf instead Costa as the third striker.

        Post fail. Will repost I guess...
