Why did you bring it? 4 reasons Liverpool may not need a new midfielder for the 2022/2023 season

There have been many trends in the past, wanting to see Liverpool strengthen in the midfield. Because I believe this is a position that the team needs to improve. However, there is a reason manager Jurgen Klopp may not choose to reinforce his squad in midfield!

At present, the Reds’ midfield is quite strong, with Fabinho, Jordan Henderson, Thiago Alcantara, Naby Keita, Curtis Jones, Harvey Elliott, James Milner and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain

Recently, the club has signed Fabio Carvalho to join the army to prepare for tactical adjustments by which the player can play as a central midfielder. and moved to play as a playmaker including going up to play offensive line

Looking at it, it looks like Liverpool have a lot of options in midfield. But really, “Reds” fans are starting to worry because the main character in the midfield panel, “Hendo”, is 32 years old, while Thiago is 31 years old, but has ongoing injury problems like Gei. da

While Jones and Elliott still have to gain experience. And develop the potential for another period of time. Milner will turn 37 years old next year, it would be difficult to stand long-term for the team in the Oxlade-Chamberlain. Probably the future is already gone. For Carvalho, it still takes a while to adjust.

So what reason could Klopp and the board choose not to strengthen in midfield? Let’s analyze this work better.

Don’t forget Fabio Carvalho
The Portugal Under-21 midfielder may still need some time to adjust to the top team at Anfield, but Klopp will not be able to make full use of him in the 2022/2023 season.

The 19-year-old is the future of the club. But with his age and just moving to the team It would be difficult to keep Carvalho on the pitch, so Klopp had to look for the perfect position for the players.

However, Carvalho’s statistics show that he can play both offensively. And playmaker, the result of 10 goals and 8 assists while playing for Fulham until the ticket is promoted to play in the Premier League Shows that players can develop their potential continuously. and can be the future of “Reds”

With Carvalho’s talent, Klopp believes he has the courage to use his players on the pitch both in the Premier League. and football cup which will allow him to develop his own potential more and more and ready to squeeze into the main character of the team

Jones and Elliott are ready to be the main characters?
while Jones, 21, and Elliott, 19, are two youngsters that may be forgotten. But their performance was at a level that pleased Klopp and gave them the opportunity to play last season.

Both will step up as options in the new season. Just like last season, because Jones and Elliott were sent onto the field in the first team continuously. and both were able to show their talents to the fullest.

Especially Elliott was able to shine in the middle at the beginning of the last season. But pushing the broken ankle in the game against Leeds United resulted in a long stay. And when he returned to the field, he still couldn’t break his good form back.

Klopp sees Jones and Elliott as investments for the future And they need to have the opportunity to play regularly to develop their potential. Although both have not yet reached the level of being the main character of the first team, but “Boss” looks positive for these two youngsters.

for Jones and Elliott to show their full potential They need to play a lot. So signing an elite midfield could potentially limit the two youngsters’ opportunities and Klopp wouldn’t want to see such a fine product!

Waiting for Bellingham to join the army
Virgil van Dijk, Alisson Becker and Ibrahima Konate are three clear examples that Liverpool are happy to wait for them. until the contract with these players It was a worthwhile wait.

And in the case of Jude Bellingham, it might be the same! Borussia Dortmund have no way of selling players this summer. Because the team just lost a famous star Erling Haaland to Manchester City at the beginning of June.

It would not come as a surprise that Liverpool will be looking forward to signing Bellingham next summer, as Klopp views the Birmingham-born midfielder. It fits perfectly with his playing system.

Bellingham is currently only 19 years old and if a player joins the team, he will likely be a key figure in Liverpool’s midfield for many years to come. Henderson’s successor

It is now important that Liverpool try to move forward in negotiations for Bellingham, who is Real Madrid’s eye for next summer. If successful, this will be another worthwhile wait for the “Reds”.

Adjusting the system to suit the situation
Many believe that the signing of Liverpool this summer. The acquisition of Carvalho and Darwin Nunez, in particular, could be a turning point in terms of tactical play that Klopp may turn to a 4-2-3-1 plan for the new season.

Of course, if adapting to this system of play, Klopp will have to choose only 2 midfielders, not 3 people, as the “Reds” fans have seen regularly. Because his potential is suitable for this position, with 3 offensive line acting to support the front.

Carvalho must have looked in the back. Spearheading the Uruguay national team In the position of the number 10 player or playmaker, Mohamed Salah will stand on the right side and Luis Diaz will act on the left side. With the squad at the moment, Klopp should be happy that there are many attacking players who are ready to switch and rotate on the field.

This event, the German boss Should use both 4-3-3 and 4-2-3-1 systems in the new season because that will increase the variety of play. and making it much harder for competitors to catch their way.
