In the six years that Uncle Scum has been the head coach of our army, there are very few active moments in the January transfer window.
The obvious exception is 2018, this winter window is a transformative winter window, laying a solid foundation for our army's future life. Van Dijk joined from Southampton and Coutinho travelled to Barcelona, both of which could be said to be decisive.
So while a radical deal is unlikely, loyal Anfield fans can dream of signing a player who can help Liverpool close the gap with Manchester City.
Even without big money coming this month, Uncle Scum could decide to boost the overall depth of the team, which has been put on the agenda due to injuries and a virus that has spread this season.
Liverpool's top priority is to settle the future of "goal talisman" Salah, whose contract has less than 18 months left. The Egyptians have consistently highlighted this season, scoring 22 goals and nine assists in 25 games, and the stats are gorgeous enough to make people think they are in an FM game. But his new contract has remained at the negotiating table for months without achieving substantial results.
Best-case scenario
Liverpool's base line-up at this stage is strong enough to patch up some of the shortcomings. The addition of Killian Mbappe and Florian Wiltz will bring liverpool a star-studded eleven.
One particular problem area this month is the offensive, with Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane leaving a huge gap after travelling to Cameroon for the Africa Cup of Nations.
Liverpool are linked to Leeds United's Rafinha and West Ham's Jarod Bowen, both of whom will be a valuable addition to the forward line in the absence of Salah and Mane. However, neither Rafinha nor Bowen will necessarily make it to Liverpool's strongest XI when all players are available.
To this end, Liverpool remained in close contact with Killian Mbappe and received a welcome promotion in late December as the Paris Saint-Germain star distanced himself from joining Real Madrid.
Signing the Frenchman will be one of the biggest transfers in Liverpool's history, even though he has less than six months left on his contract.
According to the Daily Star, another player who could transfer at a handsome price is Bayer Leverkusen genius Florian Wirtz, who is worth at least £70 million and has attracted the attention of many European giants.
A gifted attacking midfielder, the 18-year-old could add creativity to the Reds' backbone, ease the burden on the attacking trio and strengthen the team that lost Giorgio Wijnaldum this summer. Wouldn't it be beautiful for one Thiago to give me such a big boost to the midfield combing?
Worst-case scenario
While Klopp is confident of retaining his key players in January, Liverpool fans are understandably concerned about Salah's situation.
Voices from the Egyptian media and Anfield executives have been positive, but after months of negotiations, his future remains unresolved.
Salah believes he has had enough of everything in Merseyside and it will bring disaster to Liverpool as his performances since coming to Liverpool in 2017 have been stunning, but that doesn't mean all of it, and the possibility of pursuing new challenges is always there.
The former Chelsea winger will turn 30 next summer, so he may only have one big transfer left in his playing career, with Real Madrid, Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain all former suitors.
For Liverpool, a series of nightmarish events will leave Salah outright rejecting a new contract before being sold in the January window, leaving the club without a chance to sign a replacement.
For supporters, this situation is not worth considering, they just want to hear positive news of the renewal soon. Our army really don't want to grind and chirp, the pharaoh has repeatedly expressed loyalty to the hint that he will not be disturbed by other teams, hurry up and sign the name on the new contract, and then it is the rhythm of erecting statues and naming stands!!
