Anthony Robinson and Milos Kerkez They are two of Premier League Stars being considered by Arnie slotThis is in light of the wonderful performance they presented in the first half of the season.
Although Robertson is considered an important player, there is a belief that a younger option is needed in the future, and Kirkese is a particularly good fit, given he is only 21-years-old.

BILD reporter Falk has now provided an update Liverpool's pursuit of DaviesHe indicated that a move to Anfield remains a real possibility, despite widespread interest from other clubs.
Falk said: “CORRECT: Alphonso Davies is open to a potential move away from Bayern Munich. He is not 100% consistent at Manchester United or Real Madrid. I heard that talks with Bayern are currently on hold until January.
“His agent, Nick Jose, will talk to any big club interested in the new year. When Jose is on his tour of England, it's possible Liverpool could get a meeting with him. It would be a good club for Davies, of course, given they play a style of football that suits him. Liverpool, Of course, he has a chance.
I think Manchester United and Real Madrid are more realistic in comparison at this time. Bayern are also putting pressure to sign him to a new contract. They remain optimistic about getting this work done. “So Liverpool are still in the race if they want to sign him.”
