Liverpool Q&A recap - transfer news, Jude Bellingham, Virgil van Dijk injury and your questions answered

Welcome to a recap of our latest Liverpool Q&A, with the ECHO's Paul Gorst who has answered some of your questions about the major issues affecting the Reds.

Liverpool kicked off 2023 with a disappointing 3-1 defeat at Brentford which left them on 28 points from 17 games and closer to the Premier League relegation places (14 points) than to leaders Arsenal (16 points).

Jurgen Klopp's side are far from certain of finishing in the top four and face a battle to secure their place in next season's Champions League. They are currently seven points behind fourth-placed Manchester United having played the same number of games.

Klopp has managed to strengthen his squad with the signing of Dutch attacker Cody Gakpo, but after chasing an unprecedented quadruple last season the drop off has been noticeable and Paul explains the chances of Klopp dipping into the transfer market again this month, plus the latest on Jude Bellingham and FSG's proposed sale.
