He's like Ledley King now. Probably better though.

He's not even better, Ledley King was a truly top cb it's an apt comparison.

Interesting little note in Mel Reddy’s latest article about the CB issue.

“When Liverpool do buy a centre-back, it will be their intention that the player ultimately replaces Matip”

I think that's a well known assertion to be honest.

I would have thought our next CB is just an addition to Matip. We need 4 so does mean two CBs in the summer?

We were happy with Fab being 4th choice so we'd probably be content with going into next season with 3 dedicated CBs. That being said, I don't see us actively selling Matip unless we get an offer, so we'd probably have 4 center backs next season.

I took that to mean replacing Matip in actually being good and frequently available.

With two players coming back from long term knee injuries that's another season of Fabinho at the back then.

Well no...not literally
If he's being asked to head the ball too frequently - which isn't exactly his specialty - it could affect his ear and cause an infection. Especially if the ball hits him on the ear directly.

Was it Williams and Fab against Spurs?

Kane & Son would both get in the United team and they were kept relatively quiet apart from the Son goal.

True, but this game is even bigger than that one, and our form such that getting a result is even more important. Personally I'd be surprised if he doesn't play.
