Not exactly the best time to be posting in the 'Let's all laugh at Liverpool' thread, but...
The rumours recently were that he was a signing the Liverpool scouting team were completely against but Klopp overruled them and forced through the signing.
With Klopp now not starting him in the...
Oh sorry mate, my intention wasn't to dig out Johnson at all so apologies if my wording made it come across that way. Very happy to have Johnson in the team, but we 100% need to supplement Johnson's strengths by having a 1v1 specialist opposite him.
Think it's just a case of do you want to be crossing the ball into the box with Son up against Van Dijk and Quansah? Watching the game back you can see that Son doesn't even look for the ball to crossed or make any runs across the defenders to even tempt a player to cross it into him.

1. He's our second choice RB who has had to be thrown in at LB due to...
In todays game where the holding midfielder is quite possibly the most important position on the pitch i.e. Rodri, Tchouameni, Rice etc., I truly believe that Hall might be right next to Mikey Moore as our most valuable player in the academy (I personally ever so slightly prefer Hall actually)...
