Our next EFL cup opponents are a severely weakened Fulham, who seemed to have fallen off on their standards the last few months.
Assuming we beat them, Chelsea likely awaits us (again). It would be hilarious to beat them in a penalty shootout again.
First of all I think that Salah's best alternative would be Mbappe. I'm talking about Salah also because he is likely to leave Liverpool in the summer. It could have happened even last summer if he got that offer from Saudi Arabia earlier. Now Liverpool have enough time work on an alternative signing for Salah's possible departure. Honestly I don't expect Mbappe to leave PSG in January but anything can happen in the summer. I think Liverpool and Real Madrid will be the teams making a contract offer to him.
We are definitely not signing Mbappe this year, he probably goes to Real Madrid or stays at Paris We most likely replace Salah with some up-and-coming winger.
