Can't believe I missed it for the sake of getting fucking married on that day.

I ( And Jurgen ? )  thought Ox and Keita would be ideal for the shite who need dismissing at Anfield , but I think that now it has transpired that we can whack them even with the solidity of 3 workaday midfielders he has a bit of a ( good ) dilemma.

The 'work horse' thing is a bit silly. Look at Wijnaldum, for example. Scored one in three in a different role with Feyernoord and PSV and similar with Newcastle. Still scores regularly further forward for the Netherlands. Bagged two for us when we needed them most against Barcelona with Mo and Bobby out.   He's playing a less eye-catching role that Klopp wants him to play and doing so very well.  A team needs balance.   Still, I was sorry the Fekir deal fell through as we could do with a different type of midfielder in some games and he looked ideal. Keita or Ox haven't consistently worked out there yet, due in large part to absences through injury. Hopefully that will change soon.

I before E , except after C.   First English lesson ever in junior school , sheesh.

He's definitely not an 'average work horse'. He has much more to his game than just being a work horse, even if he does work horse stuff very well. I think that's pretty unfair. I do agree with you that we need some creativity through the midfield though. I just don't think you're right that it has never worked for Klopp. He has had players like that, including Goetze and Coutinho. I do think he wants somebody in there, though. That's what both Naby and Fekir have been about, I think. AOC to a certain extent, too.
