Liverpool could look to add one more solid defensive midfield option to their squad to complete their midfield rebuild - Robbie Savage backs Joao Palhinha to be that man
Liverpool have been urged to make a January move for Fulham's Joao Palhinha by former Premier League midfielder Robbie Savage.
Mac Allister clearly isn't a long-term answer in the deeper role, highlighted by him playing a part in the errors that led to his former club Brighton taking the lead against Liverpool on Sunday, and the fact on average around a goal-per-game is currently being conceded. Could Fulham's Palhinha be the answer? Yes, says Savage, confident the Portugal international is exactly what is needed at Anfield.
"Liverpool have transitioned well in those areas, there is more dynamism in there. Szoboszlai and Mac Allister are good acquisitions, recruitment has been good and I think that has gone under the radar really.The failed transfer alluded to by the 48-year-old was loosely tied to the deadline day deal for Ryan Gravenberch. While the Reds were beaming as a result of getting their man, Bayern Munich hoped to use the funds from the Dutchman's sale to bring in Palhinha.
