If he can stay injury free for a while, Sturridge has to be our priority next summer. I can see him leaving if Liverpool finishes outside CL spots.
Apart from Carvalho, are there are any other good defensive midfielders out there ? We might need to sign at least one in January or in next summer before the Euros.
Decent shouts, not sure McCarthy would join Arsenal to sit on the bench but he is a decent at distributing the ball too which is another plus.I believe there couple decent players in the PL that would provide excellent cover for Coquelin for the DCM role.
McCarthy - Granted he has had a couple of poor games this season but last season he was consistently good. Plays at a high tempo, closing players down, pressing, harassing & technically decent player to too.
Yacob - Criminally underrated, easily one the better players in this role in the league.
Decent shout that, Kouyate is versatile and can play at CB too. But he is of the same age as Coquelin. Wenger may not be able to guarantee him games.Kouyate is a better shout.
Shame lad, who are the clowns now?
Stewart Fisher (Journalist for the Herald) reported that Brian McDermott was at the Celtic vs Fenerbahce and he speculated that Brain was possibly there to keep tabs on Fernandao.
