Gomez and now Ings both ruled out for the rest of the season with ACL injuries?! FFS! 

Recall Balotelli? haha.

I think we may see this line-up

Sturridge (£12m)

Lallana (£25m)        Coutinho (£8.5m)      Ibe/Milner (£0.5m/Free)

    Can (£10m)            Milner/Lucas (Free/£6m)

Moreno (£12m)     Sakho (£18m)     Skrtel (£6.5m)      Clyne (£12.5m)

Mingolet (£10m)

I was thinking that was an uninspiring team, then I started to wonder how much it cost to assemble, so added the cost of each player. Making this as nice as possible (starting Milner and Ibe), that team cost £115m. That also doesn't include Beneteke (£32m), Frimino (£29m), Markovic (£20m), Lovren (£20m), Ballotelli (£16m), Joe Allen (£15m).

That is a fudge of a lot of money wasted.
