You know what I mean?
What numbers they could get to.
So, you know, I think Ekki TK, loads of potential.
I'm really excited to see what he's going to become, but we need more.
What Liverpool have not had nearly enough of this season is a direct outlet.
You know, when the pressure's on, you talk about Sadio, you could hit Sadio all the time, anywhere.
He could play on the shoulder, he could put it behind the full-back, he could do it for pace, but if he was a full-back that he couldn't do that, he'd fight for it, he could launch it, you know, a ball in the sky and he'd get up there and he was as good a header of the ball as anyone.
He could get it down, he could protect it, bring others into play.
He was everything.
Liverpool this season, one of the reasons I think that they're so slow and so passive in the build-up is because they've got nowhere to go.
Now, you spoke to me about Viet being the outlet.
And yes, absolutely.
You can get the ball to Viet if he finds pocket of space.
But actually, sometimes you need to go down the channels.
Sometimes you need to be able to ping it 60 yards and be able to get out and let someone go and deal with that.
Let someone go and fight for that ball.
Fight for it in the air.
Fight for it on the ground.
Salah was brilliant at that previously.
Diaz was amazing.
