Jurgen Klopp's desire to bolster his midfield options at Liverpool are well documented, but with just days of the January transfer window left it remains to be seen if he'll get his way.
The Reds are struggling desperately by their standards this season, currently languishing as low as ninth in the Premier League table a whopping 10 points behind Manchester United in fourth. The gap between Liverpool and league-leaders Arsenal defies belief when thinking about how these two fared last term, with the Gunners 21 points in front.
It is for that reason that there is huge demand both from Klopp and the Liverpool fanbase that new recruits are brought in before Tuesday night's deadline. While the demand for incomings is high, it looks unlikely that there will be any key players departing, with Nat Phillips the most likely to head for the Anfield exit.
