Summary

Just over two weeks are left in the summer transfer window without the Reds bolstering the first team squad, despite the arrival of 17-year-old Sepp van den Berg. So, as the clock ticks down should Jurgen Klopp be considering moves before the deadline strikes? In the latest offering of Poetry in Motion, led as always by Neil Fitzmaurice, he’s ably assisted in dissecting the latest transfer gossip by Connor Dunn and Caoimhe O’Neill. On the list of subject involved are Nabil Fekir following his move to Real Betis as well as Bayer Leverkusen youngster Kai Haivertz and even a certain Phillipe Coutinho. With Real Madrid doing all they can to offload winger Gareth Bale Fitzy also poses the question whether Liverpool should consider a move for the Welshman with his future clearly looking beyond the Bernabeu. While the transfer window counts down, with it brings nearer the start to the new Premier League season, which leaves the panel to discuss who may be in Jurgen Klopp’s first Premier League team at home to Norwich on Friday 9th August including how youngsters Harry Wilson and Ryan Kent have fared during their pre-season run-outs.
