Is that Paul Walsh?

If you ever see early pictures of Bob Paisley (taken during the war) he looks exactly like that.

Of all our summer signings, this is the one i'm most looking forward to seeing develop under Klopp... echos of Coutinho in this young lad....and we all know what Klopp and the coaching staff did with that set of tools.

Well yeah as for #10 this or Coutinho that, thing is that Díaz and Jota are ahead in the pecking order for the LW spot right now and he's yet to prove himself at a Premier League level. He needs to get time in training sessions and the domestic cups to bed into the system and then hopefully be good enough for a starting role down the line. We need to be realistic about the step required to go from tricky Championship winger to potentially starting a Champions League knockout game. When Coutinho was the same age he was ripping it up for Espanyol in La Liga and had great top-line experience from Vasco and Inter.

I wouldn't be too surprised if he goes to Fulham on a loan at some point this season to get proper Premier League experience if the squad remains as stacked as it is right now. With the long winter break and the longer spring season that might be the ideal time. Maybe even some time during spring at one of Benfica, Porto or Sporting would be a great thing. They're aces at making players take the final step.

Only just been announced by the club, although it feels like he's been around for months already. NGL, this is a really exciting signing. Can't wait to see him in action.

Welcome to the club Fabio.

Be strange for us to go through the season without a number 10 though, wonder if it’s offered to Jota or Diaz?

Seems unfair to me to give him the same shirt number as Bruno Cheyrou, how is he realistically supposed to live up that legacy?

Surely Fabinho literally means Little Fabio? So he needs an upgrade to Fabiao.

[When (Brazilian) Ronaldo first burst onto the scene, he was known as Ronaldinho, as there already was a footballer called Ronaldo. Then, when the player more commonly known as Ronaldinho arrived, he was known as Ronaldinho Gaucho, to distinguish him from Ronaldinho, as he was still known.

Eventually, (old) Ronaldo became Ronaldao, Ronaldinho became Ronaldo and Ronaldinho Gaucho became Ronaldinho...]

Me personally I have only seen bits of him this kid according to a few reds is the real deal. Let him play in the cups and with 5 subs he should be coming on the pitch if we are a few goals up. Talking about CL knock out game is irrelevant because if the rest of the team are firing/solid playing Carvalho won’t make a difference because he strikes me as a good footballer with a good work ethic.

I’ve plenty links to the clubs playing and backroom staff as many on here know thank you very much. Fair enough, I admire your optimism. But you’re absolute ostriches if you think this squad, even with 2 or 3 new, “cut price” players with potential get us anywhere close
