After missing out on the top four in the Premier League last time out, Liverpool have regained their best form this season and are at the top of the Christmas tree in the new year.
The Reds moved ahead of Arsenal after beating Burnley on Boxing Day but could lose their place if the Gunners win their game.
Given how tight things are at the top of the table, the January transfer window could change everything for the men’s bid for a second Premier League title under Jurgen Klopp.
Manchester United are said to be looking to sign a certain Premier League star when the transfer window opens in the coming days.
Liverpool’s new transfer
Liverpool went on an unbeaten run in December, a month in which injury problems mounted.
Klopp recently dropped Joe Gomez in the left-back role due to injuries to Alexis McAllister, Joel Matip and Kostas Tsimikas, while Andy Robertson remains absent.
Injuries have left Klopp aware of where he needs to improve his squad over the next month, with a certain left-back likely to arrive.
Liverpool are considering a move for Fulham left-back Anthony Robinson in the January transfer window, according to Graham Bailey. The American star has been in top form all season and can now solve Anfield’s ongoing problems at left-back in the winter transfer window.
However, it remains to be seen whether Fulham will approve the sale of Robinson given his importance to Marco Silva’s side. Furthermore, if Reds are to do a deal, they will need to convince the Everton academy graduate to join their childhood rivals.”Great” Robinson had an excellent audition at Anfield.
Some players can take time to win over Liverpool fans, but Robinson impressed at Anfield earlier this season despite losing 4-3. Jermain Jenas said on Day 2: “Robinson was excellent throughout the game. I thought he played well with Alex Iwobi. I thought Robinson did a lot in the game when Salah was calm.
I thought Robinson did a lot at stake.” It’s Fulham and Marco Silva will look back and say: ‘How did that happen?’ It’s going to be one of those games that you think about.”The pundit continued: “Robinson was unlucky to be in the losing team.
His drive was directed down the left and his determination to get in behind the Liverpool defense and link up with Iwobi was superb. “When you go into space, you don’t make the right decisions at the right time.
“Robinson’s energy stuck out like a sore thumb as it was still too late to score.”Keeping Mohamed Salah calm isn’t easy, but Robinson has done just that to prove he can make the switch at Anfield.
