What would your preferred midfield trio be in light of Thiago joining and Wijnaldum staying?

I'm going full on X-rated football here:

Thiago as the DM or anchor.
Wijnaldum and Keita in front.
 
Fabinho is essential. I see Henderson still as the captain and driver. Thiago is above all the others.

I envisage these 3 starting most games. I can see Fabinho not being played against the really shit teams or slow teams and playing Thiago as the deepest playmaker. I also think we might see more of the 4-2-2-2 when needed.

4 midfielders, two of Salah Mane Firmino when one needs a rest or we play tough opposition away from home
 
Yeah, there'll be a lot of rotation in there. Can't see how Ox ever starts, though.

Yeah my post was mostly tongue in cheek. There will be rotation, however 3 players will feature more than others and I'm with you regarding Fabs.
 
We'll see how Keita pushes on. I could see Thiago, Hendo and Keita being a very effective 3. But it almost baffles me that we'll have a team where you can argue that Gini, Fabinho or the new and improved Hendo shouldn't start. Its more normal to say Keita shouldn't.
