I don’t know about Liverpool’s reported interest Barcelona star Frenkie de Jong, but I do know that we are flaky in midfield. The fact that we’ve got two players who are injury prone, as well.
Naby Keita, in particular. Curtis Jones hasn’t had great luck with injuries lately, Thiago Alcantara and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain have been out quite a lot.
So that leaves you down to four midfielders basically, maybe five if you count Fabio Carvalho, which is not ideal. Keita could continue to be injured this season, and Oxlade-Chamberlain is out for a long time and can never seem to get back on track.
