Where do we go from there?

Are we doing half a season of frimpong at right back?

What happens if that's going really, really bad?

Are we potentially burning another season off the back of that?

So, yeah, it's a tricky one right back, I think.

I wouldn't be hugely averse to it.

I think as well, he's probably wanted to do a little bit more experimentation to work out what Frimpong is in this squad, and he just hasn't been able to because of how the season's gone, and he's ended up going for a little bit more of a solid, sure thing.

And a lot of injuries as well.

And a lot of injuries, so there might be a point where he is able to sort of work that out a little bit better next season, but

It's almost sort of a short-term question because I do believe, and I am biased on this as well, but I do believe if Conor Bradley comes back the same player and sorts his injury record out, he is absolutely capable of being the number one right-back for Liverpool.

Does he do that?

Is it February before he does that?

And what do we do until then?

It doesn't feel very Liverpool to get somebody in short-term.

But, I mean, we know here Trada has done right-back and has done centre-mid, so it can give you a little bit there and, you know,

You're going to come in until Christmas and you're going to play right back, but when Conor Brown comes back, it is his spot, but you'll get your odd game here, you'll get your odd game there.

I mean, he hasn't even played that much for Sunderland this season, but their fans do seem to read him.

So I don't think that one's completely out of the equation, is it?

I don't... When Simic asked him, and it felt really easy that we had very little sort of backup and fullback positions, sort of going back 10 years, and...

Simicast was the first player we signed and well he is a bona fide back up left back this is what he is and everyone is what he was bought to do all the way back in 2020 yeah completely and I just sort of think I understand why people get frustrated with him and Andy Robertson's injury record over the years has been excellent so we haven't seen loads and loads of Simicast playing right back for a prolonged period of time and I understand why he frustrates people I also don't really understand what people think
