Even an aging Suarez would have stuck some of Watkins and Ings chances away vs. Spurs.

I mean they do have 3 world class central defenders already for two positions, and Klopp doesn't rotate that often unless he has to.

You'd rather finish 12th?

Both.

May as well just spend a bit more and get someone with no injury issues. He'd cost a lot but Fikayo Tomori would be an instant upgrade if we are prepared to break the bank for a defender.

Is it a mindset issue?
-
Unfortunately it's the only way Villa or Everton currently would be able to attract players like Coutinho or James.

If we finish the season badly, and Gerrard is sacked. We can kiss goodbye to Coutinho.
-
Our chances of signing Bissouma are dwindling and we've probably missed the boat by not signing him in January. We are currently below Brighton in the league, why would he move here when he'll have a host of clubs in Europe to choose from?
-
I think Purslow would be under serious pressure to sack Gerrard, if for example he lost the next 7 games. It would be hard to defend his man in that scenario, unlikely as it is.
-
I read somewhere that loans are better for FFP, as they don't count as a loss or something.

KKH stays, he's younger and probably won't mind sitting on the bench and coming on if needed or get a few games if Cash is injured or suspended. Guilbert is having a really great season in Ligue 1, he likely won't want to sit on the bench behind Cash. And Strasbourg will be in Europe next season so we could sell to them or another Ligue 1 club.

Someone like John Terry perhaps? It's no coincidence our defense went to sh*t when he left.
-
It would be a good bit of business selling him to United, we signed him for £3m and could easily ask for £30-40m.
-
I think we’d be a more attractive team to manage if we established ourselves in Europe.
-
We’ll if Gerrard manages to finish 6th three years in a row, he’ll be doing quite well.
-
The defence wasn’t fine for the first 11 games this season, else Smith would still be manager.

Spot on. Hickey won’t be signing with us now. He left for Italy to get first team football. He’s not signing for us to sit on the bench behind Digne or Cash.

I’m not certain we’ll get Bissouma anymore, we are below Brighton in the league currently. He’ll have plenty of suitors above us.

For that to happen, Watkins or Ings (or both) would have to be sold. Although with 5 subs next season perhaps one of Archer or Davis could be an impact sub.
-
I’d like to see it before next season tbh. A wide 433, with Nakamba at the base of the midfield, two 8s of your choice, Coutinho or Bailey left, Buendia or Traore right.
-
The squad is mid table. A rebuild is necessary at some point if we want to get into Europe.
-
I don’t think anybody thinks Archer is a nailed on PL player, but he is 4 years young and has a much higher ceiling than Davis.
-
We also can’t blame SG for the chances that should have been put away. We created loads in first half, the most I’ve seen from us in a single half in a long time.
