Our weekly Liverpool jury columnists take stock of the season so far and where Jurgen Klopp's side could end up

Another international break is upon us, representing the chance for Liverpool to reflect on their start to the season.

Assessing the team's current start to the campaign and what could be possible in the months ahead, four Liverpool supporters have shared their views as part of a weekly ECHO fan column.READ MORE: Liverpool handed Andy Robertson injury blow after Scotland incidentTo be sitting where we are in the table given some of the refereeing howlers so far this season instils me with great hope for the campaign and Liverpool’s chances across the board.

Offensively, we look sharp and dangerous, which should increase fan confidence about a title challenge. Defensively, we look, at times at least, brittle and vulnerable, which should perhaps temper heightened optimism. What is plain to see is that Klopp’s 2.0 team is beginning to bud. While there are some signs of defensive decay, the midfield is ripening and our attack is in full bloom.On the one hand, it’s way too soon to start making predictions. Yet, it is the international break and this represents a good time to take stock of the current situation. The only way forward is to make bold predictions and extrapolate meaning from a limited sample size. Fandom at its finest.

Arsenal pose a threat too, but their collapse last season looms large and I’m not sure they’ve got the mentality for another run-in. The bottom line is, we’re back in the hunt and challenging the usual suspects.
