The attack, for me, is the most frustrating part of our squad because whilst we've managed to bring in some talented players (at huge expense), there seems to be no obvious way to build a consistent and balanced attack that gets the best out of everyone.
We've been playing one up top for most of the last two seasons but Sturridge, our best striker and player when fit, isn't really suited to playing as an out and out number 9.
It feel like there is a huge decision to make here. Do we build around him or not? Or maybe there is some neat solution that I'm missing?
Elsewhere, we've got the Lallana, Firmino, Coutinho dilemma. It's all too one paced and samey with all three in the side. We desperately need something different in the side - namely pace.
Coutinho is still effective playing deeper in midfield so what do we do with the 50-60M pair of Firmino and Lallana? Rotation?
