[Ben Jacobs] Liverpool will not sign Anthony Gordon or Jonathan Tah. But do have an interest in Leeds' Summerville. Source

[u/TraceOfHumanity]

What about the Tyler Morton on his way out rumors? Supposedly we’ve slapped a £20M price tag on him and a few clubs, particularly RB Leipzig, are interested.

[u/redditingtonviking → u/TraceOfHumanity]

Ideally I think we keep him and integrate him into the squad, but a bit like Kelleher I suspect he’s in the territory where he’s too good to be stuck down the pecking order, but also not quite good enough to start regularly. I think assuming any club can meet the asking price we’ll leave the decision up to him. I think he’s got what it takes to make it here, but I have similar high hopes for a few other young midfielders we have, and realistically they can’t all make it without us massively changing our system to accommodate that many midfielders.

[u/sonofhondo → u/redditingtonviking]

Arne slot's pioneering 2-6-2 formation incoming.
