Liverpool fans are split when it comes to replacing the crocked Conor Bradley after the full-back was ruled out for the rest of the season with a knee injury, and while the chances of landing a major signing look bleak, one surprise answer could emerge from a forgotten Reds star.<\/p>\n
Controversy erupted on Thursday night when Bradley<\/a> went down clutching his knee in the latter stages of the goalless draw at Arsenal, and with the player being shoved out of play by Gabriel Martinelli, despite the player\u2019s obvious discomfort. And while Martinelli has since offered a grovelling apology, not realising the extent of the Northern Irishman\u2019s problem, it has now been confirmed that the Liverpool full-back faces between four to six months on the sidelines.<\/p>\n Right-back has been a problem position for Arne Slot all season. Following Trent Alexander-Arnold\u2019s departure as a free agent to Real Madrid, the Reds have played a mixture of Bradley, Jeremie Frimpong and attacking midfielder, Dominik Szoboszlai, there this season.<\/p>\n But with Szoboszlai considered too important to move back as the Hungarian continues to enjoy an excellent season on a personal level, Slot is facing up to seeing out the season with just one senior option to play there in Frimpong.<\/p>\n Debating the issue on the Talking Points<\/a> platform, Liverpool fans have called on Slot to give forgotten star Calvin Ramsay a rare chance to impress, while some also feel two big-name signings could be made as an alternative.<\/p>\n Scottish star Ramsay<\/a> was a \u00a34.2m signing from Aberdeen in summer 2022, but has never fulfilled his potential at Anfield.<\/p>\n Having made just three appearances for the club, he has been loaned out to the likes of Preston, Bolton and Wigan, though none of those moves saw him catch the eye.<\/p>\n Now fans are championing Ramsay\u2019s cause, with one stating: \u201cWe have Calvin Ramsay a natural right-back, give him a chance. Maybe sign a young right back but when everyone is fit again, that signing may well be redundant.\u201d<\/p>\n Another said in response: \u201cRamsay is really the only option. We can\u2019t rely too heavily on [Joe] Gomez as he\u2019s the only other choice at CB. We really have royally messed up with our defensive planning.\u201d<\/p>\n Some supporters, though, feel the Reds should buy their way out of trouble, with two names coming to mind.<\/p>\n \u201cThe lad at Feyenoord, Givairo Read, looks like a real prospect. If Bradley is out with an ACL, then we simply have to do something, especially as Gomez could leave in the summer,\u201d one stated.<\/p>\n A fourth fan felt a move for Marc Guehi must now be made to bring more options to the defence.<\/p>\n \u201cNo brainer, we have to sign Guehi in the Jan window; if we wait, we will lose out.\u201d<\/p>\n Want more breaking transfer lines from original sources?
