2. Jan Vertonghen (Tottenham)
Liverpool’ major concern has been their defense which has been surprisingly leaky for a side harboring title ambitions. The attack, which is one of the highest scorers in Europe, has bailed them out on numerous occasions this season, but that is not the way in which a title is likely to be won. Hence, defensive additions will be of paramount importance in the summer.
Left back has been a problem area for Liverpool and loan signing Aly Cissokho has hardly impressed enough to start on a consistent basis. Summer signing Kolo Toure too has been poor in recent weeks and his error have cost Liverpool crucial points. With two problem areas in the defense to sort out, Tottenham defender Jan Vertonghen seems like the perfect solution.
He is equally capable of playing in central defense out out on the left and he will add some much needed quality and versatility to the back-line. With Tottenham struggling to find their feet, he could be snatched away for an affordable sum in the summer especially if Spurs fail to qualify for the Champions League.
