"NESV, or as they now are FSG"

FSG, or Fenway Sports Group, is a separate company owned by NESV. it does sports marketing, and doesn't really have anything 2 do with liverpool fc

After having a mooch around other rumour sites ie manowe and chelski, i think the only way is up for us, they both are worried about their current squads chelski saying roman is not going to put any more money in and they have to sell to buy and all their squad is over 30 and the younguns not as good as ours they are panicking, and manowe same and on s* tty site they are saying theres more to come out in the news about shrek involving a senior member of the squad, can't wait to hear what that is, and than manowe are desperate to get rid of shrek out of embaressment but don't think anyone will pay enough for him, hope its all true,

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

it is generally known that both those teams are getting weaker. Man u and Chelsea don't have the money power that used to have. Both have older squads (Chelsea do). Saf can't be far away from retiring. I reckon this season and next season will be the last 2 seasons they will be challenging unless large investment is made. I think if we make 2, 3 top class signings and keep our stars we could win the pl. Oh and a new manager. By top class signings I mean Benega, Sanchez and Hulk and maybe Honda for back up. We can sell shed load of bad players Kuyt, Babel, Cole, Lucas (sorry but I think Benega is better, jova, konchesky and aqua. I also think we have a big enough squad too. I

by next season I think this team can win pl

just what I think can win pl.

But yeah man utd and Chelsea are falling fast. It'll be us, arsenal and city competeing for pl soon. I think spurs will fall soon. Just my opinion

About Garcia

He was a very good player for us few years back, now he is not so great , he is over 32 years old with no pace or strength which makes C Cole look good.

We can all see that width pace and striking options are short at Liverpool. But would you sign a winger purely for attacking ability? We play Kuyt on the wing for workrate and to cover Johnson. Would Adam Johnson/ Ashley Young etc leave gaps in the midfield for teams to break?

Spriggo

We are Liverpool. Why would we be worried by our oppenent. This is the problem. Our manager plays to defensive worrying about other teams because that's all he's used to from mid table clubs. He doesn't understand that we need to attack them, not be scared by them.

"01 Dec 2010 18:45:28
Liverpool RumoursI got a question for the lfc fans and the ed. We sold alonso and spend 20 million for a replacement. Looking back who do you think was the best replacment?

we could have went for sneijder and at 14m would have been a much better buy than aquilani"

And what 20m is that then, we only paid 5m upfront for aqua boy, the rest was in installments, not every selling club is happy with installments Real in particular as they need the money.

Houllier plays some youngster Clark at villa and he scores 2 goals
who says our youngsters can't do the same play pacheco there is something about players between 17-21 that makes them fearless to try things or do some skill to beat a man that's why bale and A.johnson are so highly rated we have that in players such as amoo and pacheco 65th minute bring one on gets a bit of space and as they've always dreamt about the player sprints past 2 and cuts it back for torres something maxi doesn't have the pace or composure to do. Thoughts ed? im only 15 so i ain't go that much footy watching experience but my favourite position is right wing and i know that kuyt can't do what a winger is meant to. {ed's note - I am of the belief that you only find out if the kids are good enough by playing them. We already know half our current first team are not good enough so we have nothing to lose by trying a youngster or two in the side.}

Question for you all and this includes you to ed.

What of by some stroke of genius ROY actually within the next 2years wins the league or something major are we still gonna be slagging him off or will he be the next Shankly and as for Honda cska have asked for 8 Million which will rise to 12 million with add on's and liverpool have tabled a bid

my source: Is the kit man who was asked to prepare a under 13's kit for January lol

but i really do hope we sign honda and start making money in Asia as we are missing out so much

Kenny chung had the right idea

ramy the red 2007 YNWA {ed's note - if he wins us the league then he will have succeeded, but it takes a lot more than that to be Shankly. Roy doesn't understand the fans, he hasn't connected like Shanks did.}

I fail to see why we are being linked with 27 year old carlton cole who is currently with west ham at the bottom of the table facing relegation? he can hardly be seen as the missing piece of the puzzle to turn our season around, when he is hardly setting the world on fire at a floundering hammers.
i think, just because of the so called interest in the last window, when hodgson was pretty desperate to change the squad, amid the takeover madness the press are just re igniting the same old story, with lack of information about players that fit into NESV/ FENWAY'S future plans for liverpool fc!
we will know the truth in january.

I don't reckon anybody on this site knows anything on transfers, what formation the Manager wants to play or anything. We will have to wait and see what happens and trust in the judgement made as like it or not he is our Manager. The owners are in the same bracket for me, I doubt anybody really knows their intentions and prioities at the moment. I would like 90 minutes effort out of the players though instead of 45.

I'd much prefer Rami to G.Cahill, saw him a few times for France and Lille and he luks strong and a great tackler. i don't see wat people like about cahill he never seems to impress me tbh. The move for honda seems very likley to proceed, but we are still in need for a striker and winger (personally i think we shud renew our interest in bryan ruiz and lisandro lopez).
Who wud u prefer out of rami and cahill, and do you think we are likley to sign honda?

LFC have not had a quality target man since John Toshack . If Roy Hodgson is successful at bringing the right centre forward to the club in January it would make for an interesting team performance , based upon the recent upturn in team play . A target man in a front 2 with Torres and good play from the back may really look the part .

Hi all
we all no our squad needs major rebuilding , a clear out of deadwood is a must also some of the older players need moving on to these include soto , hes 32 in the summer , ryan babel not good enough , aqua not going to cut it in the prem , polsen need we say more agger great player but allways injured koncheskey not good enough there are many more we all no who will never be the up to the standard of our great club ,
i don't think we will do big deals in january as its a overpriced market so any big buys will be in the summer when nesv have addressed what we need and hopefuly a new manager
as for january i would like to get in honda , steven taylor of newcastle good center half and can cover right back hes out of contract in the summer get him cheap hes young and english and a foward on loan and have a major sort out in the summer what are your thoughts reds ed

If Roy is only to be at the club until summer then why should he be allowed to buy anyone in January window. I mean we are not rolling in money yet we are lead to beleive that he could be spending possibly £10 million on Carlton Cole of all people. I know it's only ifs & buts, but it certainly wouldn't make any sense. Carlton Cole makes Heskey look like Ronaldinho Ffs.

Honda is a free kick maestro if we get him we could use a free kick tactic which means player just look for a free kick in a certain area.

Then we could sign Rory Delap just for his long throws? Maybe a defender who can kick it far up the pitch. . Oh! Scrub that last statement! We've already got a few of those.

I wouldn't want Carragher as manager, as no one would want to play for him .He told the guy helping him up to F* k -O* , totally unexceptable behaviour.He might of been in a lot of pain, but there is no need to be so abusive. I have never been a fan of is behavior on the pitch he doesn't care if children are watching him. He is not a great role model for children. I am old school, I never swear in front of children.

Cahill no more than £12m tho
hazard up 2 £20m
honda up to £15m

If not Cahill then I would like to see Dann come in. A local lad from what I understand and will certainly have that extra fight in him!

Honda and Hazard are a MUST.

Ed - do you know if Dann is Liverpool or Everton?

PJ Red {ed's note - he is a red mate.}

Then without a doubt we should sign Dann and he is only 23 and a RED!

Sell off Agger, Soto and Skrtel to bring in Dann and either Shawcross or Cahill.

Both would make an excellent partner for him at the back. All British, know the Prem inside out and the partnership could last for years.

With Ayala, Wilson and Wisdom all competing for a spot on the team, could look very tasty if you ask me.

Would also love to see Carragher becoming Player/ Coach and getting our defence playing as one!

Ed, this is probably not realistic, but is there any chance og getting andy carroll? How much do u Think he'd cost us if we went for him in the summer? {ed's note - for one he won't leave Newcastle, for two he is not that good and most of all he is a complete and utter scumbag.}

Why do you rate him so low?

My opinion is the guy could be a fantastic player potentially one of the best in the business, but to do that he will have to leave Newcastle.

I also thought that he was compossed for England and played good for a debut, better than some of the regulars.

{Editor's Note: I assume the Editor was referring to his off-field antics.}

What do you base Honda being garbage on? Because it's obviously not on watching his playing ability.

Did you see him in the CL last season? He was outstanding. Maybe the Russian league is poor, but he took his form onto both the big stage in European football, and in world football (World Cup with Japan). I remember him against Inter Milan in the CL quarter-final, and he was impressive. I just remember saying "that Asian with the white hair looks good".

And why base his ability as a player on the league he plays in? Agger played in a carp league, is he crap? Skrtel played in the Russian league, is he carp? Wilson played in a crap league, has he no potential? Man Utd got Vidic from the Serb league, guess he's carp? Didn't we sign Kenny Dalglish and Souness from the Scottish League? Should the big clubs ignore Affelay because he plays in a carp league?
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Can't believe how many times I wrote "carp" instead of "trout". LOL.

To the guy who replied to this:

I understand what your saying ands its spot on, but i can litrally see us liverpool fans saying in a years time "waste of money that honda" and the two examples i used in bentley and santa is because there the only ones i can think of availible we might be able to loan. As for you ed weres my last post eh? No reply to me?

I'm telling all you 'Woy doubters' that Roy Hodgson is a very intelligent manager who has the potential to do very well at Liverpool and take us back to the top! (If he doesn't sign Carlton Cole and no more Konchesky's that is)

The problem is. . we have lost so many established players before the start of the season and did not replace them with quality. .nor did we even replace them for that matter! Roy clearly does not have a lot to work with at the moment.

A lot of youngsters have to step up to the mark and gain the valuable first team experience they so desperately need. However this will only pay dividence in a season or two; providing we hang on to the likes of Pacheco etc.

We do need more pace and width to our game, we need to keep the ball (Mr Carragher) and not give the ball away too cheaply. We all know that the other team cannot play or score without the ball evidently. .(funny that!)

I think that if we sign Honda, a target man and replacement for Paul at left back we will be battling for fourth spot however we could still get in the top four which will mean some major summer signings!

Please please please give Suso some first team exposure which will only help his development! Play Kelly at CB.

Keep hold of Agger and Pacheco!

Lose Babel and Poulson (Im on the fence with this guy).

Sign Honda, Adam Johnson, Jesus Navas, Lassana Diarra and Marcelo

- - He starts the hardest games, man. Sir Alex puts him on against teams like Arsenal, City, Liverpool and other big European teams and I never seen less than 100% from him. Always working, energetic. If you ask me, I'd say he is even stronger than Nani. No wonder people say he is the "Unsung hero of Manunited."

Luis Garcia is to make a shock return to Liverpool in january, since we are after an attacking winger. 100% going to happen

My source - jamie carragher - my daughter goes to the same school as his son and i spoke to him while we were waiting to pick the kids up from school last week.

LUIS GARCIA TO LIVERPOOL FOR £2, 500,000

YNWA! !Are you having a laugh? for 1 you really think jamie carragher knows about our transfers? that's down to comolli hodgson dalglish etc he wouldn't just walk up to carra in training and go o ye think we might get that luis garcia back , 2 why would we want him? hes 32 years old that wouldn't make sense with nesv policy of bringing young talent through. this is complete bull and you must be a mank fan or the blue lot to even put this pure rubbish!

Dear mr editor

i have a query. .

a lot of people on this website seem to hate the idea of signing c.cole. i hve never watched west ham so i dnt know much about him, so yesterday i took particular interest in him against united and he played well, the KIND of player we need sombody who can hold a ball up give player chance to get forward, and finishing, he also showed decent pace. now i can't make a judgement on him through one game but he seemed ok. and im not saying hes my ideal signing but he is quite cheap a home grown so it could be beneficial. so ed my question what do you people all see wrong in carlton cole and who your ideal striker is. {ed's note - for starters that was the best game by miles he has played all season and he still made so many embarrassingly bad errors that he would be getting pulled up on if United hadn't been so poor and given him loads of chances to make amends. Secondly he is lazy, extremely lazy and makes little effort both on the pitch and in training. A friend of mine who supports Villa calls him the lamppost for his lack of movement and effort while playing for them. He has a terrible attitude, criticising team mates constantly and generally making himself unpopular. He is simply not good enough.}

Editor I know honda has versatility, but where do you think his best position would be to play in liverpool's interests? Also i have noticed that although he's an attacking player, he has not scored very many goals. Would very much appreciate your views, thank you {ed's note - he has played a lot of games at left back and defensive midfield mate, it is impossible to judge his goal record, especially when you remember he was playing for a weak team in Holland. I think he is best as an attacking central midfielder or support striker myself, though he did look excellent as a target man for Japan.}

Will all you reds wake up, honda is garbage, if he was that good he would have been picked up when he was in holland or before, he's playingn russia for gods sake. Mark Gonzalez is playing well there and he was carp aswell! I can name 2 players that have done well comming from russia arshavin and pavulychenko. No 1 else, why? Coz its a carp standard. We need proven premiership players, who don't need to settle in. If i was manager i wouldn't buy till the summer, why let other clubs know we have money to then pay over the odds for players. Just a few loan deals. Why not loan bentley? Doesnt play for spurs, but good player? Why not try and loan santa cruz? Doest play fot city, but again look how well he did at blackburn when he did play? Theres a winger and a striker what every liverpool fan says we need till the end of the season. After that, if they work out sign them if not then spend our money on thd likes of hazard and a world class striker who we can afford. What do u think ed?
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

What do you base Honda being garbage on? Because it's obviously not on watching his playing ability.

Did you see him in the CL last season? He was outstanding. Maybe the Russian league is poor, but he took his form onto both the big stage in European football, and in world football (World Cup with Japan). I remember him against Inter Milan in the CL quarter-final, and he was impressive. I just remember saying "that Asian with the white hair looks good".

And why base his ability as a player on the league he plays in? Agger played in a carp league, is he crap? Skrtel played in the Russian league, is he carp? Wilson played in a crap league, has he no potential? Man Utd got Vidic from the Serb league, guess he's carp? Didn't we sign Kenny Dalglish and Souness from the Scottish League? Should the big clubs ignore Affelay because he plays in a carp league?

I hear Honda is off to the bundesliga - Wolfsberg I think.

Apart from that Roy's here till the summer at least. If he was going anywhere it would have happened already. Only way I see him going is if I drop back into the bottom half for significant period of time.

Not in the know but I know you know?

quote from ssn
Liverpool are believed to be in pole position to secure the services of the 24 year-old, with the club reportedly already in the process of tabling an offer

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
My guess is as good as theirs! The press speculate just as much as we do!

We were interested in him when he was at VVV and he ended up at CSKA. I'm pretty sure SSN said we were in pole position then!

For the 6 months I've been reading this site (. .love it & read it every day btw) no mentioned transfer target has ever materialised. The same could be said for all the new ownership speculation we had in the summer, none of it was spotted by anyone. Nor was Joe Cole's arrival, neither Meireles. So on that basis alone, when I read people on this site continue to post 'Carlton Cole to sign 100%' & Rijkaard to be Liverpool mangager by end of week!'. .it comes as a great comfort to me to read it - as the chances of them joining LFC are now nil. Thanks guys.

Liverpool WILL sign Carlton Cole in January for £8 million. He was and still is Roys first choice striker to come in. West Ham will be offered a choice of Babel, Pacheco and Eccleston on loan as a sweetener.
Remember everyone thought Zamora was useless when Roy signed him (coincidentally from West Ham) but he had a great season and was worth twice what Fulham paid for him when he suffered his injury.
Like all managers Roy has his favourite players and Cole is one of them.

Roy didn't sign Bobby Zamora for Fulham.

And regardless of whether Roy likes C.Cole or not he isn't in 100% control of transfers.

What you've wrote above is a pile of tard if you're being critical in a minimal sense.

Please don't make me do it Roy, Damien and the rest please!

Plus:
John Carew to Liverpool - Mental rumour where did that get digged up from?
Vucinic for £20m far to much for a slightly better version of Jova!
Elmander on a free maybe with a reasonable wage pack.

I want to see Cassano or using Eccleston (if Napoli really are interested) as part of a deal to bring in Lavezzi.

Honda, Ireland & Bastos (anywhere down the left i think?)

Alexis Ruano but I think Sevilla just signed him or Cahill. Apart for the international never seen Rami play so I hold judgement till I do and Shawcross I just don't rate.

IMO very little activity in January maybe one purchase and one swap deal involving babel or jovanovich. I think this season can be written off. Roy will get a nice payday in the summer. I'm sure the advisors to NESV have three/ four top young manager targets (Coyle, Boas, Emery and Flores) and the summer of 2011 will see a massive player/ squad change. IMO Torres will leave for abroad in a swap deal involving 1 or 2 players plus cash (no one can afford him outright and I hope he wouldn't sign for another english team). Outs will also include, kuyt, pouslon, jovanovich, soto, aurelio, ngog, babel, maxi, agger, konchesky, johnson, aquiani (i hope he stays)and insua. IMO it will be championship manager meets liverpool fc in the summer. It means Liverpool will need to sign at least 14 players (I hope we at least offered affelay a contract) but players such as urby emanuelson and stephen piennar will be looked at as well as a host of other out of contract players. And finally IMO the fans and media alike will no nothing about it until Liverpool announce it themselves just like business should be done

Torres £70-£100?!?!?

You must be joking mate! On current form the swap with Adebayor doesn't seem such a bad idea. Darren Bent has scored more goals than Torres this season (and last season by the way!).

Lets stick to stats. Torres hasnt done it for almost 2 years now, but still we put this halo and mega price tag on him. Stevie G is the real red icon.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Have you been living in Middle Earth for the past few years? Torres has had injury problems which is why he "hasn't done it". Mostly due to the fact that Spain played insisted in playing him despite our doctors not wanting him to. And for your information, when he's played in the team he's scored and performed.

And so what if Bent has scored more goals? If your suggesting that Bent would be better than Torres then you need to visit the doctor.

And swapping with Adebayor? What has Adebayor done since moving to Man City for £5m more than Torres cost us?

If it's true that Liverpool, Ac Milan and Barcelona are interested in Keisuke Honda well then Liverpool i guess would have to be the favorites.
1)Barcalona just signed Afellay
2)Ac Milan signed Kevin Prince Boateng and Robinho
3)Liverpool could do with a player like honda, and he fits the profile that nesv are looking for.

Over the past ponth i have heard so many players linked with us some really good and some not even sunday leaugue material now some of these are well within LFC's grasp all that is left is for NESV to dig deep into there pockets but anyway here is the list.

Players we are linked with for November

Honda
Cisse
Rami
Cahill
Gutierrez
Cole
Ireland
Elmander
Taarabt
Adebayor
Bent
A Johnson

Gameiro
Cassano
Dann

Pogrebnyak
Matuidi
Mata
Defour

Now that is a lot of players and altogether would probably cost around £7-800 Million at there full price. But preferably who would you want out of that list to go to the reds.

Eden Hazard £15-25million

ha yeah lets swap a Donkey for a Stud (Adebayor for Torres)

This will never happen.

I just want to say that if and when Torres does leave we should all remember him for the legend that he is. He loves this club and us fans. Anybody would be ticked off with a club if we were in as much muck as we were and kind of still are. I just hope with whatever bunch of players and whatever manager we get back to the top.

Rumours circulating of a proposed bid from man city of £20m plus adebayor for torres are an insult to the true valuation of probably one of the best strikers in the world. Despite his stop start career at Liverpool he is still one of only a few players who has the ability to spearhead a top European side and shouldn't be judged because he can't get on the end of overhit passes from a mediocre Liverpool midfield. If he was surrounded by quality players then he would be probably be the best striker in the world. This is the reason that despite poor form he is still so sought after. I'd take £40m plus tevez though

I find it really funny that when Liverpool are linked with crap players who are over-priced and on high wages, everyone believes it and moans about it and it's all doom and gloom. Then when we're linked with a good player, it's deemed not true and typical paper lies.

Torres £70-£100?!?!?

You must be joking mate! On current form the swap with Adebayor doesn't seem such a bad idea. Darren Bent has scored more goals than Torres this season (and last season by the way!).

Lets stick to stats. Torres hasnt done it for almost 2 years now, but still we put this halo and mega price tag on him. Stevie G is the real red icon.

Targets that have come out and look like they could be realistic if we are to spend a good sum to get them.

Gary Cahill £10-15million
Scott Dann £5-7million
Adil Rami £10-12million
Rod Fanni £6-10million
Eden Hazard £15-25million
Keisuke Honda £10-12million
Teofilo Gutierrez £6million
Johan Elmander (Cost Bolton £10million) ?
Carlton Cole £10-12million

Im sure we will be linked with a lot more.

from the above i wud only accept

cahill no more than £12m tho
hazard up 2 £20m
honda up to £15m

If not Cahill then I would like to see Dann come in. A local lad from what I understand and will certainly have that extra fight in him!

Honda and Hazard are a MUST.

Ed - do you know if Dann is Liverpool or Everton?

Just a couple of points to put in from people's comments today:

Carlton Cole - hopefully we will not sign him no matter how well he played last night - do you know that's the first time he's scored twice in a match in 8 years!

Carraghers Injury - he's having surgery so he comes back stronger (as in the shoulder) rather than not operate and have further complications down the line; comments on it being his last competitive game are very wide of the mark!

Don't be too sure on Agger leaving; he's injured so someone's going to only want to loan him (if he recovers in time); then we would need to buy a replacement; can't see this decision being made when it's clear other areas of the team need improving.

Honda - the guy IMO is good enough to play for us first and foremost and would add something to the team - this is what we should look for in buying new players; the fact that his marketability (if that is a word) would bring money in is just a bonus.

Cisse - We had trouble farming him out last time for an £8m loss; can't see us paying £14m for him now - brilliant sometimes awful others and can remember him sulking when a ball wasn't played through how he wanted it - not saying I didn't think he was ok but the 2 leg breaks didn't help.

The Over 21 Squad Rules - we don't need to buy more english players if Carra's out; as long as we don't have more than 17 over 21's classed as foriegn players we will be ok (NB we named a 21 man squad for this at the beginning of the season).

Ed do you think we need a cb as we have a couple of good youngsters already. Seems like a waste of money to me, we need 2 good wingers or even just a left sided player and stick Johnson on the right. Could then put kuyt up with torres till summer. We have enough squad players in the starting 11 we don't need to add to it ie: Cole and swp. {ed's note - I agree completely, it is time to trust in a youngster alongside an experienced head. Better to put the money towards a top class player in a position such as left back or striker.}

Honest summary.
Reina - World Class and unsettled
Johnson - Bad attitude, bad defender
Konchesky - S* *e
Meireles - Not bad, needs to settle
Agger - Upset Roy, going.
Aurelio - Squad player at best
Gerrard - World Class but other side of 30
Torres - World Class but unsettled
Cole - Best years behind him
Jovanovic - Chicken with no head
Kyrgiakos - Tries hard but s* *e
Maxi - Obviously talented but homesick
Kuyt - Hard Worker but average
Babel - S* *e
Lucas - Improving but still not good enough
Carragher - Legend but it's over.
Spearing - In my opinion not good enough
Poulsen - Worst since Ferri/ Dundee
Skrtel - Bad defender.

I know some people will not agree with the above, but let's be brutally honest and admit, this lot are no where near good enough to finish in the top 4. The entire sqquad needs to be rebuilt.

Ed I don't know what matches you were watching back in the day but for me Evans didn't have problems with goal scoring as a certain Robbie Fowler will surely put you right on there. Surely the problem was letting the goals in?! He played with the Keegan school of football - attacking at all cost. Houillier came in and went straight for tha backline in his changes with Henchoz and Hyypia and Westerveld coming in. I loved those games like Newcastle 4-3 twice and Man Utd 3-3 - they were pure entertainment and the man should be applauded for giving the people what they love to watch as the standard now is to park the bus most days for a visiting team.

There is a real like of depth in our squad but overall a real lack of quality in certain area that make our side weak - especially away from home. Peter Crouch did a fantastic job for us when he was brought in and I think we could do with a similar arkward big player up front away from home. I think this is why the could be looking at Cole (even though he's not the best). The move for Babel as a swap was lambasted by some LFC supporters but we all know Babel won't work at Anfield so if Cole gives us anything get the deal done as Babel is a waste of time. I was at the West Ham match last season and certainly don't think the lad is lazy. For a big man he covers some ground.

Width is definitely needed, however with our main center half gone in Carra this is a real problem as he organises and reads everything as well as talking Johnson through a game never mind Kelly. We may need better cover or the goals will flood in. Hodgeson isn't doing all that badly but in my opinion he could look to kill games a bit more after going 1-0 up.

Spriggo {ed's note - you are forgetting just how many chances the team created under Evans, we would have been out of sight in games if they had been taken as they should do. Yes Fowler was deadly, but the rest of the team were missing some ridiculously easy chances game after game.}

My personal opinion is we should go with the team below until the end of the season. The full backs and midfield could support each other in defence and attack and would cause the opposition some real problems. I think Johnson should be given a chance on the RM as he has some great qualities in attack but can't defend!

Liverpool Rumours
Unforunately it is very unlikely that Jamie carragher will return the same player, an injury of this calibre and at his age can easily end a career, so unfortunately I can't see carra around much in the future. This brings me on to a replacement, I think we should look at a young English centre back, I think we should look at Scott Dann, Gary Cahill and James Thompson, all three are good defenders ready to take the next step in their careers and all 3 would cost less than ten million. Another area I think we need to strengthen is centre mid, the prime candidate would be kesuike Honda, he can play anywhere across the midfield, rafa stupidly rejected him when he was at VVV in holland. Now we have the opportunity to sign him again, and I think we could get him for about ten million, he would also boost revenue in japan so it seems a sound investment.
The last area we should target in January is a decent striker, I think NGog is a decent striker, but he needs some loan experience, I think we should make a big money move for llorente, around 18 mil would do it, as we have a good relationship with them , as we let mikel San Jose leave cheap to them in the summer.
Any addition ed?
Liverbird {ed's note - I would love Llorente, but you are looking at 30m+ to buy him, not 18m, unfortunately. I think he is probably a bit out of our budget right now, though getting Honda in January would increase revenue which could be put towards him in the summer.}

The carlton cole comments by ed i agree with he isn't good enough, but am afraid that the deal is already done and dusted, the only thing i can see stopping him coming is new manager get in b4 or he gets a bad injury that keeps him out the game for long time, its so sad that the only way roy is going to lose his job is bad a bad run of results, i think its about 15 to 1 that want roy and to give him the time if not more surly ed the new owners do not want to take the action letting roy cos of the reaction H&G got wen they tried to get rid of rafa, but in this case a hell of a lot ov fans are saying he isn't good enough plus his history in the prem should say a lot to. i think these new owners need to grow a pair if they are so confident they will do there job right in the end surely letting roy go now and start to get a better squad together will make sure fans do not turn against them as we did with the 2 cartoon fellas. the only message i think will get through to owners to let roy go now is if we shouted for his head ( by that i mean at least 3 quarters ov home game crowd) then they will no they have fans backing, but as we know we don't do that at anfield for opposition to gain confidence of our problems, the reason why is we have always trusted our board to make the such decisions as needed, i know he hasnt had the time but this just isn't right, there was a lot more to him being given the job in the first place, ie just to get anew owner/ to steady the ship as was in a awfull state, . . so i think if these new owners are confident they should be growing a set of balls and making big desions even if some fans don't agree, as long as it comes good in the end, ok this isn't realy realy desperado time as we sitting in 10, lower and we could have big argument, but as we all no football and they dont, we know his tactics are balls. so i suppose what i am saying is i hope new owners are groing a big set of balls, as some fans are hard to please but as they have and are proving there ways do leed to success in sport. {ed's note - the owners just don't want to make a change until they have the right man in place to take over. It is not about anything other than trying to keep turmoil to a minimum.}

More of a prediction that a rumour. I think we have seen the last of Carra in a competitive match. We all know that he has been struggling for pace for a couple of seasons now, his footballing brain often makes up for it but he is now too prone to giving away penalties. Three months out at Carra's age will be a lot for him to come back from. Add to that some great young central defenders we have coming through - Wilson, Wisdom, Ayala and Kelly (although I'd like to see him at RB) I don't see a future for him. Personally I hope Wilson gets the chance and takes it and that by March no one would even think about dropping him for JC. If a meaningless match arises at the end of the season then he should return as captain for a final farewell.

I know I'll get slated but don't get me wrong. I'm not trying to be disrespectful to Carra, the man is a legend and deserves a job for life at Anfield hopefully on the coaching side but failing that as an ambassaor.

So many fans having a go at Carragher. Who exactly do you all think organises the defence, sets the tone for the team (that no other player seems to do out there) and talks a young player like Kelly through a game? Who amoung the so called senior players has performed better than him this season in defence? Suddenly it's as if stopping certain goals has become a bad thing for a defender to do, WTF!
If you all think that a group of young inexperienced players can form a defence in the premiership without someone like Carragher alongside them then get back to dreaming. Rant over.

If Roy is going at the end of the season (personally I think he should have gone a long time ago), what purpose does it serve involving him in transfer discussions for incoming players during the January window? Our season's already f***ed and I'm sure his list will comprise of more useless 'steady eddies' like Poulsen and Konchesky.

Carragher's injury has probably forced the owner's hand, but buying players to steady the ship until we get our man (whoever he is) didn't work at the start of the season, so it certainly won't work now.

I really hope all these rumours are a load of rubbish as they are beginning to depress me.
Roy all season !
Main realistic target going to Bundesleague !
Owners written season off !
C Cole a possible target !
None of these things sound like what the new owners promised. If they really have a winning mentality and want the club to be a long power again they are not going the right way about it. I know they said long term but the further we slip the harder it will be to rebuild. It will take more time and more money.
Surely they must have made assurances to senior players that would contradict what is being said.

People compare him to Heskey but he is more mobile and scores more goals. In fact he would be a very good foil for Torres and if Roy continues sundays more adventurous policy of 4-4-2 away from home a central midfield of Gerrard and Meireles behind Torres and Cole would cause problems for any opposition. All we would need then is a decent wide player.

Harry J

just a quick one on the cole debate. my mate is a west ham season ticket holder and reckons cole is utter s* te with a terrible attitude. the other week he was unmarked on the 6 yrd line and the ball was squared to him. he took a touch that bounced up, hit him in the face and went out for a goal kick! quality!

Ed,

I have heard a lot of good things about Roy Evans in this site.

Can any one please describe how did he set up his team tactically? ?. . . . Was he a visionary as a coach and in terms of attacking tactics?

I believe a good coach should be good tactically while attacking too. . For example, Guardiola crowded Xabi Alonso in El Classico by having Xavi pushed further ahead along with Iniesta. . .Basically the mantra was Stop Alonso Stop Madrid. . .And then they wove their web of passes in Alonso's territory. . .

But had a thought that Roy Evans and Steve Driscoll can be good choice as a pair. . . .He will act as experience for Driscoll. . .Ed your thoughts on the questions above? ?

Pritam {ed's note - Roy Evans' team played very similarly to Barca, in that they dominated possession and played fantastic, passing, attractive, attacking football. Unfortunately he didn't have the calibre of players that Barcelona did to work with. Invariably we would play the opposition off the park, forcing opposing managers to spend the match tweaking their team constantly or even making complete formation changes to try and match up to us. The problem we had was putting the ball in the back of the net, similar to Arsenal now. I wouldn't say he was particularly good tactically though, but as a coach to get the players passing and moving, I don't think there is anyone to compare to him. I know some people will say Barca play it better, but they have better players and can afford to get the best players for their system. Roy never had that luxury and had to adopt a system that wasn't ideal because of that, with players that were mostly not good enough but he still had them playing like they were. I would love to see him back at the club, but I think he would need someone with tactical nous to work with rather than him being the one to provide it.}

If people look back at the rumours posted over the last few days the name that crops up the most is Carlton Cole, yet every time his name is mentioned there is a huge unbelievable vote. Just because you don't want it doesn't mean it is unbelievable. Vice versa with Honda. I would wager money that Cole is the one most likely to be signed in January.
As I have mentioned before he was very close to joining us in the summer and Roy will try again. Despite rumours to the contrary Roy still has some influence.
People should also consider that Torres is much happier playing alongside another striker and Cole would take a lot of the weight off his shoulders. People compare him to Heskey but he is more mobile and scores more goals. In fact he would be a very good foil for Torres and if Roy continues sundays more adventurous policy of 4-4-2 away from home a central midfield of Gerrard and Meireles behind Torres and Cole would cause problems for any opposition. All we would need then is a decent wide player.

Harry J {ed's note - you know the only reason any move was made for Cole was because every other target turned us down or their club asked for too much money don't you? That is why he was a last second move that fell through because we left it too late. Do you not think that now there has been more time to find a player the last second desperation option will no longer be the one we go for?}

So who were these other targets that turned us down, and were we actually bidding more than the £10-12 million we would have paid for Cole?
Cole keeps being dismissed although he has only just turned 27 and last season was one of the best strikers in the premiership. He has been poor this season because of his disappointment at not joining us but last night showed what he can do on the big occasion. I am sure Torres would welcome him with open arms. {ed's note - Pavlyuchenko was one that we bid for, I am not sure who else off the top of my head. Cole has been poor because he is an average player, at best, playing in a very poor side. He was not particularly outstanding last season, I don't know how he got an England call up when he was fluffing sitters all season long. He is simply not good enough, that is why he failed miserably and Chelsea and Villa.}

This is the first time i have posted anything on here, but i regularly visit to see what players we might be looking at in the next transfer window.
Of all the players LFC seems to be linked with there is one i definetly hope we sign and that is Keisuke Honda. I was like a lot of people very impressed with him at the World Cup.
He would definetly add a much needed boost to our attacking options and he fits with NESV's plans to buy young marketable playerrs.
I don't see him playing as a striker though, more of a attacking midfielder, similar to Joe Cole
In the summer we did'nt have the funds to buy a quality striker, until it was too late in the transfer window. Buying Elmander or C Cole would be a waste of time in my opinion. Neither are good enough to play for this club.
If NESV want to mark there intentions and get LFC back in to the Top 4 again, then we must be looking at world class players.
In Jan it will be difficult to bring in such a player, maybe have to wait until the summer.
Sergio Aguero i would love to see playing for us, maybe we could get him in the summer? He should definetly be a realistic target and one we should push to get. If David Villa can go to Barca for 32m ish, then we should be able to get Aguero for 20m-25m.
I would rather us not buy a striker at all in Jan, unless it is the right type of player. We should not be settling for average Prem players like Elmander and Cole.
Ngog is a good understudy to Torres and will get us goals if Roy takes a hold of his balls and plays a more attacking team with 2 up front
We also need a winger with pace, one that will run at defenders. Adam Johnson would be a great option, but there is no way i can see Man City selling him to us.
Some of you might laugh, but i do think Nzogbia from Wigan would be a good option, from what i have seen this season he is a real handfull for defenders
The other winger i definetly think we should go after is Alexis Sanchez, he looks a very good player.
Especially if it means stealing him from under the Mancs noses
Players out in Jan and summer i think will be Babel, Jovanovic. Lucas will stay as i think he is starting to play at a much better level. I also think Johnson will stay {ed's note - Aguero is not an option mate, he is about to sign a new contract with Atletico.}

The only player we could probably get out of these is Honda. About 2-3 weeks ago Llorente and Athletic Bilbao increased his get out clause from 36 mill euros to 63 mill. And i said a while ago that Barca might go for him as a replacement for the leaving Ibrahimovic. But now it seems that Real have made him their No1 target in Jan. As apparentlly Mourinho has just asked for 1 player so far (Lorente). And i'm pretty sure that Sanchez will be going to Man'ure as they have scouted him for 2 years and he's a massive Man'ure fan.

Blair Mayne YNWA

hi blair. i can see your point about llorente. after watching barca on monday, i don't think there is a player in the world that wouldn't want to play in that side. got to be the best ive seen.
i can't see, or i hope, that the scum are not in a financial position to bid for sanchez. they seem to be going the same way as we were under h+g. as for him being a scum fan, i just hope commolli and the panel can earn their money and persuade sanchez that liverpool is the club to be at.
i will keep praying untill the day we sign cole, n'zogbia and elmander when i will cry myself to sleep every night. cheers

However, Fernando Torres, Dirk Kuyt, Raul Meireles, Glen Johnson and Paul Konchesky will be rested and remain behind at Melwood.

Daniel Pacheco returns to the squad, while reserves right-back John Flanagan is in the first-team set-up for the first time.

Liverpool's youngest ever player Jack Robinson also makes the party.

Liverpool squad: Pepe Reina, Brad Jones, Martin Hansen, Fabio Aurelio, Joe Cole, Milan Jovanovic, Sotirios Kyrgiakos, Ryan Babel, Lucas, Danny Wilson, Christian Poulsen, Jonjo Shelvey, Martin Skrtel, Daniel Pacheco, David Ngog, Martin Kelly, Nathan Eccleston, John Flanagan, Jack Robinson.

Wishful thinking from me but I would like to see this team

Reina(c)
Kelly Skrtel Wilson Robinson
Lucas Shelvey
Cole Pacheco Jovanovic
Babel

But it would probably be this

Reina(c)
Kelly Skrtel Kygriakos Aurelio
Poulsen Lucas
Babel Cole Jovanovic
Ngog

Re: And i'm pretty sure that Sanchez will be going to Man'ure as they have scouted him for 2 years and he's a massive Man'ure fan.

Yeah another " i don't live in Manchester" scum united fan! or glory hunter!

Perhaps these players need to read up on club history not what they see in the papers?

Hold onto your hats its going to be a bumpy 4months with Roy unless he quits or has a heart attack(which none wants) but as the song says don't be afraid of the dark at the end of the storm there's a golden star Rijkarrd will take over in the summer expect young raw Dutch magic when he does

I'm just going to try and be realistic here. In January we need with the budget we have: A creative midfielder/ playmaker, a striker and winger.

Realistic targets:

Creative midfielder: Kranjcar or Honda - Both in our budget

Winger: Have to be realistic, I have no idea how we can get a quality winger AND a quality striker with 30 million

Striker: Llorente, Elmander

Its been hard days for LFC. .but i can see bright sunlighht sooner or later. . . .
lets see the present conditions. . we need one CB, LB and a striker in jan. . . . . probably two wingers in summer.
we do have options to sell people, babel (unless you are sure you won't give him any chance), Aquillini (superb player. bad luck since we have cole/ meireles in place for him). . that will probale give his more than 20 mill with us to spend.
A decent CB will cost us 10 mill and a reasonable 8 mill will cost us a LB.
Now the owners needs to spend atleast 15-20 millions on a striker. .(becoz, only players make a club big. . . its just becoz of torres and gerrard. we do have fans in asia, and most other countries.). So if you look in the business area too. we need top rated players. whom we can make money. . . . .
if we get these three players in JAN we can have a realestic hopes of getting in top 4 (since our most difficult ganmes against top 4 are Home games in the next quarter). . .
Now in summer. .we need wingers. i would prefer TURAN. (gr8 player. loves ur club and will give everything. .for around 10 mill). .
People do crticize RAFA. . . . .but personally i dont. . .
one thing for sure. we will never beat UTD by 4 goals home or away, nor we will ever beat REAL by 4 goals home or away. .
I still trust RAFA. he made the formation 4-2-3-1 so powerful. that i still watches 200-2009 season review of LFC. .
he made one season misserable. .that was becoz. injuries to our players. .Aquillini/ torrres/ gerrard. .or else we could have finished well in Top 4. . . .
guys do you think with roy we will finish in top 4. . . . .
i doubt. . .
Lets hope for the best. . .but again. . . . .i love my club. .LFC for life

Ed's note - I am not sure if the Honda rumour is just wishful thinking, though his agent and him have been talking the move up. Llorente and Sanchez do seem to be out of reach for now, I can't see those two moving anywhere in January.}

just have to keep hoping. think i would blow in my pants if we signed these 3! cheers

The only player we could probably get out of these is Honda. About 2-3 weeks ago Llorente and Athletic Bilbao increased his get out clause from 36 mill euros to 63 mill. And i said a while ago that Barca might go for him as a replacement for the leaving Ibrahimovic. But now it seems that Real have made him their No1 target in Jan. As apparentlly Mourinho has just asked for 1 player so far (Lorente). And i'm pretty sure that Sanchez will be going to Man'ure as they have scouted him for 2 years and he's a massive Man'ure fan.

Ed's note - I feel like a stuck record, but I want 3 players, Keisuke Honda, Fernando Llorente and Alexis Sanchez.

totally agree ed. put these three in my wish list team the other day, had 27 yes' and 7 no's. can't understand why 7 have said no, they would be fantastic signings. i think with a few sales i.e babel, poulsen and kuyt, this could be financially viable. the honda rumour seems to be gathering pace, llorente seems to have gone quiet and not sure if sanchez has been looked at recently. any info on these 3? cheers

Love the look of that team.

Although, if you added Honda into our current team, it doesn't look half bad either (my XI):

- - - - - - - -Reina- - - - - - - -

Kelly- - Carragher- -Agger- -Aurelio

Johnson- Gerrard- Meireles- Honda

- - - - - - - -J.Cole- - - - - - -

- - - - - - - -Torres- - - - - -

Certainly on paper a strong looking team. Nicely balanced and the defence looks a lot more solid on paper with Kelly and Aurelio on the full-back positions.

There's no reason why that team, with the right guidance, couldnt attain a Champions League spot atleast. But I fear that before that even remotely becomes a reality, we'll be too far behind the likes of Man City.

What the hell is happening to our club, it wasnt long ago we were signing the likes of mascherano and torres not we are being linked with a bunch of s* t players who would never have made it anywhere near our team a couple of seasons ago we should be buy quality players and not players who have scored a couple of goals in one match and are all of a sudden world superstars, we need players the quality of aguero or ppl like that to get anywhere near the league title ED who would u like to see signed?
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

The key word being "linked". Don't believe all you read in the anti-Liverpool papers mate. Man Utd are broke and they've recorded losses and clearly don't have much spending power - and they're being "linked" with £30m players week in, week out. Says it all really tbh.

Just ignore the papers and concentrate on the facts buddy. Judging by Henry's statements on the transfer policy, we'll not be signing any dross like Carlton Cole.
