Our Liverpool fans inside the Transfer Tavern are hoping Jurgen Klopp gets it right in this winter window.
Although this way of playing is pleasing to the eye, our landlord can’t see how it will help Liverpool to fill their trophy cabinet and as our barman mentions, all title winners are built from the back.
Despite all this, it looks likely the German will be in for Arsenal’s out of favour winger, Theo Walcott. Having not started a Premier League game yet this season, it seems his Gunners time is over and Anfield would surely be ready to welcome him with open arms.
His former team-mate Alex Oxlaide-Chamberlain made the move in the summer and might welcome teaming up again.
Our glass collector takes a look at why Walcott would thrive at Anfield…
Pace
Walcott’s been blessed with some terrific pace and that would suit Klopp’s fast and attacking team set up. The German has created a team that can punish many a team with its counter attacking style, much to the delight of supporters.
With Walcott being able to play in a variety of positions, he can slot in to many a different formation to help the team.
Goals
The England man can certainly score a goal or two. In recent seasons, he’s been one of Arsenal’s top goal-scorers, despite all the flack he receives.
Liverpool have, in an abundance, players that can find the net but one to come in from deep on the wing, behind the front three may pose a different problem for the opposition.
