With Wataru Endō bought for the here-and-now and Stefan Bajcetic back sooner than expected (albeit in need of careful handling at his age, after a few injury issues so far in his career), the Reds now appear to be looking for a midfield all-rounder.

(Although if Liverpool did still need a new no.6, I hear that Moisés Caicedo is now available for 37pence, after giving away two huge chances, including a penalty, in a very costly debut as a sub.)

As Liverpool move on to look at midfield all-rounders, sources (who refuse to be named to protect relationships with their fictitious existence) inform me that Todd Boehly is excited about this great Brazilian player he's just heard about, with a ton of money being found to buy the attacker.

Some guy called Pelé, apparently. Guarantees you goals. An eight-year deal, with the option to extend to 17 years.

But let Chelsea marinade in their own madness (young side/short side/new side/price-tag pressure), which may or may not work, but remains madness all the same.

Liverpool have to be smarter, and that means getting a mix of leadership and experience, with youth, energy and hunger.

So, who should Liverpool go in for? Over the summer I've created radars for various midfielders, and I've created some new ones, for other potential targets.
