Not strictly transfer banter but I hope the eds will allow it to lighten the mood.
OK - you wake up tomorrow morning and there's a car waiting to take you to Melwood. You are taken into a secret underground void and through a series of locked door where a man in a suit and sunglasses greets you. He smells vaguely of sandalwood but you conclude that's not important.
"We've been watching you on that Banter site. You seem to know your stuff. We've chosen you to carry out one special task"
"We've built a time machine that we can use to go back in time and bring any one former reds player to add to the squad this season. But only one".
"You can pick anybody you like except Djimi Traore - we went back and erased him from history". It can be any other player but remember - the machine can only take one. We've a season to play so pick somebody the team needs - not necessarily your fave player"
So - which player from which year do you bring forward to help this year's campaign?

Alonso
07 Aug 2015 13:30:02
Didi Hamann. Rock solid and reliable DM.
07 Aug 2015 13:31:22
Xabi Alonso
Jamie Carragher
Sami Hypia
OR
Mascherano
07 Aug 2015 13:33:39
Suarez, would make any team of ours score and not look flaccid. That or Xabi.
07 Aug 2015 13:38:03
Ray Clemence
07 Aug 2015 13:40:10
I am torn between Dalglish and Suarez.
Last season we missed creativity and a player that can run at the opposition defence causing fear and havoc , Dalglish and Suarez did this very well with ease.
07 Aug 2015 13:40:37
Degen.
07 Aug 2015 13:52:07
Clemence. Not that I watched him live but we badly need a proper gk and from what I have seen from previous videos he was the best
07 Aug 2015 13:57:06
Reina
07 Aug 2015 14:06:09
To improve the current squad,it has to be Hypia for me.
07 Aug 2015 14:11:33
Hansen
07 Aug 2015 14:17:07
Graham Souness
There,s your captain, enforcer and defensive mid all in one
07 Aug 2015 14:19:49
Ian Rush ?????
07 Aug 2015 14:34:04
John Barnes in his prime, what a player!
07 Aug 2015 14:39:37
Billy Liddell. Some say he was the greatest ever Liverpool player.
07 Aug 2015 15:15:31
2005 Steven Gerrard
07 Aug 2015 15:20:11
El Hadji Diouf ;)
07 Aug 2015 15:29:32
Alonso, 6 years and infinte money spend, close to 150 goals conceded. Bring him back. The best player in the midfield and I have seen All three of Gerrard, Lamaprd and Scholes play throughot.
07 Aug 2015 15:35:59
Do you think a player from the 70s era would be able to have as much impact nowadays, there's so much improvement in lifestyle, training, fitness etc
07 Aug 2015 15:56:36
Can I go back and get a young Paisley instead of a player?
07 Aug 2015 16:06:41
Hansen
We need a class centre half and he was the best
07 Aug 2015 17:03:42
Suarez
07 Aug 2015 17:07:51
Has to be a center half right now. Hyppia at the height of his career is a good choice. A Mascherano-type player is what we really need in this side (though I'm sure a few would disagree!)
07 Aug 2015 17:26:27
Igor Biscan, no question.
07 Aug 2015 18:06:23
Hansen but difficult decision over clemence and Souness
07 Aug 2015 17:51:31
1) Graeme Souness from 1983.
2) Rush
3) Emlyn Hughes
07 Aug 2015 19:40:36
Current first eleven need a Steve McMahon !!!
07 Aug 2015 19:43:19
McMahon, Emlyn Hughes both give this lot and BR what for
07 Aug 2015 21:15:11
You're all mental, it's kenny dalglish all day.
Firmino dalglish coutinho
Benteke
07 Aug 2015 22:30:54
Souness.
King Kenny
Rushy
In that order, if we wanted to win anything.
08 Aug 2015 03:43:31
Emile Heskey
08 Aug 2015 06:25:13
Souness for me
{Ed001's Note - I am with you on that, Souness was the best midfielder I have ever seen.}
08 Aug 2015 06:51:10
Antonio Nunez. but only because Swampy has already picked me
08 Aug 2015 08:13:24
Souness, McMahon, Hansen or Carragher. We need a midfield vocal enforcer and some quality organisation in the centre of defence
