"Right now it would probably do Konate a favour just to take him out of the firing line a little bit, Redknapp said on Sky Sports' coverage of the game. But they haven't really got those options because they've got to manage Conor Bradley's minutes, Joe Gomez has had so many injuries so you've got to be really careful there with his knee."
"He would be a perfect fit for Liverpool. That's exactly what they need to play alongside Virgil (van Dijk). As much as I think the (Mohamed) Salah situation will dominate, I think they need to get another centre-back in. Liverpool to sign Marc Guehi in January? At the moment there are slightly mixed signals on Liverpool's pursuit of Guehi, following on from missing out on him late on in the summer."
Liverpool's defence showed vulnerabilities in a 3-3 draw that intensified scrutiny on Ibrahima Konate. Squad options are constrained by the need to manage Conor Bradley's minutes and Joe Gomez's recurring knee injuries. Marc Guehi will be out of contract at Crystal Palace in the summer, making January Palace's last opportunity to secure a fee. A January acquisition of Guehi would provide a centre-back to partner Virgil van Dijk and add defensive stability. There are mixed signals about Liverpool's pursuit after missing out on Guehi late in the previous summer transfer window.
