🚨🚨LIVERPOOL ALREADY HAVE A PSG-STYLE MIDFIELD IN SZOBOSZLAI, MAC ALLISTER AND GRAVENBERCH
Liverpool already possess a midfield capable of operating in a PSG-style structure. Dominik Szoboszlai, Alexis Mac Allister and Ryan Gravenberch have the technical quality, energy and progressive ability to function as a midfield three in a straight line rather than a rigid double pivot.
1. All three are natural progressive midfielders
None of them is a pure defensive midfielder. Each prefers to step forward, carry the ball and influence play higher up the pitch. Forcing two of them into a deep double pivot wastes their strengths and leaves the side short of creativity between the lines.
2. A straight-line midfield maximises their qualities
Playing Szoboszlai, Mac Allister and Gravenberch as a midfield three allows them to share defensive responsibilities while maintaining constant presence in advanced areas. This structure mirrors successful PSG setups that prioritise fluid, technical midfielders over a fixed holding pair.
3. Double pivot restricts rather than protects
A double pivot would push two of these players deeper than their best positions. It reduces their ability to arrive in the box, switch play, or support the attack. The result is a safer-looking shape on paper but a less dangerous team in practice.
4. Control comes from quality, not just numbers
These three can dominate matches through technical security and intelligent movement. A straight midfield line gives them the platform to do that while still offering enough defensive cover when organised correctly.
Liverpool do not need to force a double pivot.
They already have the profiles for a fluid, progressive midfield three.
Using them in a straight line is the clearer way to get the best from the group.

[🟢] NEW: Liverpool spoke with Jorge Mendes in recent days but consider price for Ibrahim Mbaye too high at the moment.
Ibrahim Mbaye situation remains not clear.
(@FabrizioRomano)
🚨| NEW: "Liverpool are planning to sign TWO wingers especially IF Gakpo leaves."
"Liverpool spoke with Mbaye’s new agent, but PSG want €200m which is a huge package if they were to sell both Mbaye and Barcola."
"So Mbaye’s situation remains unclear."

(🟢) NEW: It wouldn’t surprise me if Tottenham test Liverpool’s resolve with a bid for Cody Gakpo because the feeling is the player would be open to the move.

If you look at Bradley Barcola,
if you at Barcola’s face looks very clear that the player is probably thinking about leaving the club.
Bradley Barcola face is speaking for himself, the body language of Bradley Barcola looks very clear , Barcola was almost not even celebrating
🚨🗣 Bradley Barcola on his move to Liverpool after being left out against Aston Villa in the Super Cup final:
“I think everyone understood what that meant. When you’re not even on the pitch for a final, you start asking yourself questions.”
“I’ve had a lot of respect for PSG, but Liverpool feels like the right next step for me. Iraola made it clear that he wants me to play with freedom.”
“I’m ready for the Premier League. I want to play, I want to win and I want to make the #LFC fans proud.”
(🟢) NEW: Barcola’s body language was very clear tonight, almost as if he wasn’t celebrating. I’ve told you several times, personal terms are almost in place and Barcola is attracted to Liverpool.
It’s now down to club-to-club negotiations, with PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi confirming for the first time that Barcola is not “untouchable” and that his situation remains open. The deal is absolutely on.
Once Mika Godts and Ferran Torres are completed, the chances of Barcola joining Liverpool increase even further.
