Central midfield:
Liverpool’s central midfield is outstanding. Steven Gerrard anchors the side, while Joe Allen or Jordan Henderson provide the team with legs and energy. Lucas can play as the combative battler, while Coutinho also has the ability to play as a deeper playmaker.
With Champions League football imminent though, injuries or suspensions to any of these five could see them badly short in the middle…
The Reds could turn to Sevilla for Ivan Rakitic, although he’d likely be very expensive as he just signed a new contract. They are also still interested in Porto’s Brazilian Fernando, and Frenchman Yann M’Vila.
