Despite being a man down for almost the entire second 45, Newcastle managed to create more chances than Liverpool and were dominating the game.

One gaping issue that has emerged in the first two games for Liverpool is the central defensive partnership.

While Virgil van Dijk has continued to look like a rock at the back, Ibrahima Konate’s performances have left a lot to be desired.

Liverpool have been linked with a new central defensive signing since the beginning of the summer.

One player on their radar is Crystal Palace star Marc Guehi.

Guehi is highly touted as one of the best English central defenders going around.

The Frenchman, for all his ability, always seems to play on the edge and more often than not, he seems to have a mistake in him.

Arne Slot currently has three central defenders to count on, without factoring in Joe Gomez.

Everything comes down to how the negotiations play out with Palace for Guehi and let’s wait and see how things play out.
