Dunno about you guys but im gettin a bit fed up of some of these stupid rumours c.cole really! personally i wouldn't mind seeing cisse back. we need to give the youth some playing time, shelvey, suso, pacheco. we need a LB clichy is youngish and woundnt cost too much maybe 10mil and i think if we took a punt on him he would definately think about it as kieron gibbs is coming through and will soon be after a first team slot other than that apart from up front the squad is not to bad.
players to poss sign

Hey guys, what about Landon Donavan? NESV will be looking to market us more in the usa im assuming, so how about him? Adds pace to our squad which we clearly lack, but unlike swp and al the other crap some of you are linking us with, he can actually play. Would give us options upfront and on the wing.

what do you think ed?
{Editor's note - He would be a good player to get in on loan during the off season in the MLS}

Honda (Jan)
Afellay (Jan)
Mata
Coentrao
Hazard
. .and break the bank for Bojan.

Shift 8-10 players out in the summer to give a net spend of around 30million or so I'd say.

These kids could combine brilliantly over the next few years with Pacheco, Suso, Shelvey, Eccleston, Ammo, Wilson & Kelly (while being led by Gerrard, Torres & Reina) to form one hell of a team. Pace and craft, like the good old days. They would be a joy to watch.

These are the players I think we should be looking at in January.

Juan Manuel Mata. Continuously linked to Liverpool, young, bags of pace, skilful, will provide plenty of width on the left flank, and has an eye for goal. Quality finisher too.

Lassana Diarra. Another starting to get linked to us more and more these days. Would add that bit of power and strength in the middle of the park we've missed since Masch left. Premier League experience, decent pace, and also young.

Fernando Llorente. Great finisher, good pace, still young, can play as a lone striker or as a partnership. He is also tall which could be great if partnered with Nando. Scored a good amount of goals already too.

Really. .what is the point in having a reserve team and academy? i thought it was for getting youth players ready for life in the big leagues? we need wingers, that is clear, but why are everyone throwing names around like mata, honda etc? granted, very good players, but they are not used to english football. could turn out to be a bit of a problem after spending 15m-20m on the player. academy players arent used to epl football either but they are already on the books and they are obviously there because they are talented. .? am i missing something? raheem sterling should be our winger on either side, the lad is special, not some overpriced, overpaid foreigner who is likely to leave in 2 years anyway. sorry for the rant, i see this topic discussed a lot on this website (great website by the way ed(s)) anyway, we're going to win 2-1 tomorrow, torres with both liverpools ivanovic with theirs

bentley god meiriles johnson

torres doyle

you maybe wondering why i stuck johnson on the LM . well its because its were i reckon he'll be the most dangerous . always like to cut in when going forward , and by playing him on the left will let him cut in on his stronger foot .+ i think he could our answer to bale .

How can you possibly want c.cole that's the reason our squad is weaker than it was 3 years ago because we bought people like c.cole for overpriced fees wich could have been spent better the
Babel 11m
aquilani 20m
Keane 20m
G.johnson 18m

I agree with majority of people who all seem to want the same thing. . wingers. I also like Hazard and Elia although with the other clubs interested in we're very unlikely to get Hazard and Elia hasn't been in Germany long so doubt he'd want to move. I do like Albrighton at villa and the young german lad Marin. Would have loved Adam Johnson shame that one. It would just be nice to have some wingers with craft instead of battering rams ( sorry Dirk and Jova) well we can dream.

To the crazy tw*t. . who is calling hodgson a crazy b*st*rd IF he sells Daniel Agger. Do u ever think of what ur writing b4 u write it. First of all IT'S A RUMOUR! ! Second Daniel aggers injury record speaks for its self. Danii pacheco will only go out on loan. Remember. . our owners are looking at future stars. Why sell them.

Hello ed, i've been doing the rounds to gather info about Mr.Comolli, and in certain text documents it is mentioned that he has been a coach/ scout, so to get to my point does he hold a coaching badge/ badges? and if he does surely it will put more pressure on roy.
the whole situation reminds me of the roy jones/ houlier era, and we all know the outcome there! {ed's note - I know he has French coaching license, not sure what level he got to and if he would be able to take charge of us if need be.}

Some have asked questions regarding the Comolli appointment and what it means exactly. I believe I can shed some light on the issue.

Henry, in his interview, said something about this model working in the US. In Major League Baseball, every team has a Manager and a General Manager. The Manager controls the everyday running of the team as well as lineup selection, tactics, that sort of thing. The General Manager's job is concerned with contract negotiation, scouting, player trades (something common in baseball), and things along those lines. The two managers are able to devote all of their time and effort into each's specific job (winning with the team they have/ improving and building the team) while working together well and building a solid team.

I think that, rather than this being a sign of the owner's lack of faith in the current manager as some have suggested, that the new owners are simply trying to import a system that works very well in America into their new business.

Hi Ed

Can you please clarify

Is Agger injuried (if so what's wrong) or is there any truth that he and Roy have fallen out?

Rednose {ed's note - he wasn't injured when he was originally left out, but I don't know if he has since suffered an injury or not.}

Mata reported to be a target today - nothing new there. What do people think of Muamba of Bolton? England U21 player with bright future & would fit in well as a ball winning midfielder. Walcott is another player I like who's had great start to the season & he's a Liverpool fan. He's not a winger, much better down the middle. Carrol would also be on my list, not full of goals but a good foil for any striker & will improve. With these 3 players your getting value for money & longevity.

Where did you hear the Mata rumour buddy? Wouldn't be surprised with that, Camolli speaks fluent Spanish so would be an asset in negotiations. Plus, Mata would fit in with Henry's transfer criteria, being 22 years-old.

Muamba: not too sure about him mate. I think he's doing well at Bolton, but I think that's because he's found his level. Would cost a too much aswell.

Walcott: Would love him up front with Fernando Torres. I think he's wasted out on the right, and I think he's Thierry Henry-esque when played up front. Lightening pace aswell. Arsenal would definatly not sell to us, unless we made an offer they couldn't refuse, which would be atleast £30m IMO.

The chaps out there trumpeting Rijkaard as a good potential future manager. Have you forgot what the dirty get did to Rudy Voller. I was involved in a saturday afternoon riot on a football pitch, the match being abandoned after a spitting incident.

Disgusting cowardly trick spitting, especially when you do it from behind. Poor old Rudy had spent a fortune on that perm! The spitting issue to me demonstrates a possible underlying unsavoury trait in Rijkaard, so certainly not somebody i'd like at the healm.

Agree or disagree?

I think the most realistic targets we could get are Afellay and Honda.
But since Comolli is appointed now, expect to hear some new young names to be brought in. With talent of course.

Just watched the 17 minute interview with John Henry on the BBc website. .difficult not to be impressed with what he says and how he says it.

I am still wondering just what Hodgson's role is being boiled down to with Comolli's appointment though. .is he being squeezed so he'll resign?

What do you reckon ed? {ed's note - I think it is preparation for the future, a future which won't include Hodgson.}

Spot on, ed! I sense the same.

Well. while so many names being mentioned here . i was thinking why not CARLOS VELA came into peoples's mind . i am sure Arsenal is not looking to sell one of their brightest prospects. but VELA IS reeally AWESOME! .

my dream attack next season would be to have BOJAN and VELA as STRIKERS! ! .think we can get them? or any one of them?

I have a lot of French football fans on Youtube. Don't have any St.Etienne fans though but I regularly speak to a Marseille fan, who always keeps an eye on the Premiership etc.

Asked him about Matuidi, who we've been linked with. Says that the rumours have been in France that Liverpool want him. I asked him about Matuidi as a player, and he reckons he'd be a great buy given his age and the prices quoted (didn't mention how much in France, but I'd imagine its the same). He says Matuidi is renowned in France for his fantastic work-rate. He says that he's not massive but he is strong and just never stops running or working and his fitness is excellent. Actually compared him to Claude Makelelee (sp.). I asked him what he offered going forward, and he said his passing was brilliant, he's world class in the tackle, and surprisingly creative - so abit of both. Andre also said that his shooting needs work, but he is capable of scoring a good goal from distance.

Now I don't know how accurate this analysis is, but this is a guy who I can assure you is a football fanatic. And Matuidi sounds like he could be a fantastic buy particularly for the mentioned £7m. And it seems as if he's very similar to Ever Banega, only he sounds like a better player (I would really be better judging that based on watching both of them).

I will most certainly make a conscious effort to watch this guy now. Hopefully he plays against England.

Lads, lets leave the wishlists for January until January. All our efforts should be channelled towards the team and providing them with support in what I believe is a pivotal game tomorrow. If we can get 3pts confidence will grow and with Wigan and West Ham to come we could make big strides - whether we believe roy or the team is good enough is irrelevant. Lets just show the rest of the land why we're the best supporters in the land and like in champs league semi, make chelsea nervous and uncomfortable at our home! Come on boys

Evening fans, I see people are still all batting anyone and everyones name around as possible signings in jan. The only thing that is certain at this time is that we are lfc. Since the new acquisition to the club, no one knows who we will sign or if Roy will be manager to make those signings. I for one hope that who ever is the manager to take lfc forward, they at least have the sense to take a good look at some of the youth we have available. I have said for some time that shelvey is our future cm, suso one of our wingers and Pacheco could be a quality cf. The one problem is that they need to be brought through to gain vital experience, is roy the man to recognise this? Ed what are your feelings? {ed's note - I agree we need to see youth given a chance, but Suso is not a winger, he would be wasted there.}

Wing targets:
Mata - signing new contract so would cost a fortune and even then unlikely 3/ 10

Young - Dodgy likliness 7/ 10 sadly

N'Zogbia- not a bad option to come off the bench to use his pace but inconsistant and would on be worth it if cheap like 7M or if he was english. likely 8/ 10

Payet - St Etienne said they don't want to sell players in jan but that could be to get more money who knows. 5/ 10

Hazard - Good cheapish but lots of teams want him and he said hes happy to stay at Lille for now but i reckon if we where to get an offer accepted hed come. 6.5/ 10

Afellay - Very likely if we go for him due to what everyone knows about, but if Barca, utd or arsenal go for him he would probably go utd but he did say hed like to come to us or them so hopefully. 8/ 10

Elia - Hamburg apparently would ley him go for 15m ish great pace and can play ST would be a good buy 6.5/ 1
0
Renato Augusto - Leverkusen said they don't want him to leave, but an offer of 10-15 M maybe enuf, would be a good buy 23 good skill and cross 6/ 10

Dzsudsak - would maybe cost 14-16M, great speed, shot, excellent cross LW i personally would love him to come but dunno if liverpool have even looked at him yet. likely ?/ 10

Coentrao - can play LB, LM, LW would be an excellent buy but would probably cost alot after UCL performances but maybe get him in jan(hopefully) 6/ 10

Sanchez - United fan they tried to sign him and were told 25M +, Man u still looking so likely to buy him. 2/ 10

I would Love and quite cheap

LW: Dzsudsak 14M or not then Coentrao 16M
RW: Afellay 8M or if fail then Hazard 13M
ST: Lisandro Lopez 15M

There won't be a new LB in jan maybe summer. Dont think we need a CM if we get a new ST cos Lucas is looking more solid and steady passer the kind of play that doesn't get noticed of helping the team but keeps it going.

Ed? ? {ed's note - I think you are right, we only just got Konch, no chance of replacing him just yet.}

What u think ed? {ed's note - I am not convinced by Benzema, he looks slow and fat to me, not unlike myself!}

I agree a lot with you ed but I think Benzema can be one of the worlds greatest strikers. We just need to get him to lose the weight. He has more ability and potiential then any other player I've seen (expect messi and ronaldo).

Ed it's okay to be fat and slow. {ed's note - the problem is that he is a professional athlete and there is no excuse for ever being overweight.}

06 Nov 2010 19:21:21
First of all i agree 100% with Ed about Liverpool needing players who actually want to play for us not like Mascherano who give up on us and used us as a stepping stone . .

and i wish people would stop posting these ridiculous transfer rumours linking Liverpool with underated players like Gary Cahill , Ashley Young , Carlton Cole etc. because they simply are not good enough for Liverpool

For Liverpool to progress we need to bring in the RIGHT Players who are willing to play for us and those who have actually had experience in the positions they play and who we know would do a great job . . there's been a lot of rumours suggesting Cissokho for lb he would be a good signing but could he really cut it at liverpool? personally if we had the right funds i would love to see us move for gareth bale he's still very young and has already established
himself as the best lb in the world.

What are your thoughts on this ed? ? {ed's note - he doesn't even play left back!!!}

Anyone agree?
06 Nov 2010 07:52:16

I think we could do a lot worse than buying tiote from Newcastle. Looks a solid DM and would be cheap. I've seen him play 3 times and has good positioning, can pass. . Forward and win the ball. Would do a short term job until summer, then be good back up. Just a thought.

"06 Nov 2010 18:20:11
Here is some genuine news lads. Spoken to Pachecos mate again today. It seems he is off to St Etienne in January. Deal is done. Were getting Dimitri Payet, a winger. Were giving them Pacheco and Agger!"

Everyone argues this one, but we need depth in the squad- and to me Agger is our best defender. We can get the winger without giving players away.
If RH lets Agger and Pachceo go because of personal grievances, he will lose what little respect I personally have left for him. If he lets them go because he thinks they're rubbish, then he's crazy. Either way, get the stupid b* * rd out before we lose everyone who's any good.

06 Nov 2010 19:06:51
Pacheco has to stay, and agger aswell, hes the only centre half that we have who knows how to play football, would be crazy to sell them, especially agger because hes proven himself, and pacheco deserves a chance, i can't see agger agreeing to join them to be honest.
what u make of this ed?

Ive not really heard of Payet apart from hes mates with Benzema.
Oh and don't think were getting Benzema, hes now at RM.
Gutted that Roy is shipping these two out. For me these were real stars of the future. Just goes to show you, cross this guy and he is ruthless. He doesn't like being questioned.
Roys gotta go, if I wasnt sure earlier, I am convinced now. He is clueless.

According to reports Payet is valued at around £7-8m. If the above post is true reports suggested some Spanish clubs offered Liverpool £4m in the summer for Pacheco and in the summer of 2009 AC Milan offered Liverpool £15m for Agger. So I think financially that straight swap deal, is a poor deal if it goes ahead.

3 players to save Liverpool

Coentrao £15-20m this guy looks the real deal and offer a first choice quality full back with skill and attacking mentality but also decent defender good goals in champions league aswell the other night

Mata £15m this guy looks class imagine his skill and creativity on our left wing also cutting in behind torres I think they would link up well! Would also give us real options on the wing

Benzema £15-20m benzema for me is one of europes top strikers ok has not really shone at real but remember when he was at Lyon scored bags of goals he is quick skillfull and good finisher I think he would provide a good partner and take some of the heat off torres

As for the English quota system in place Liverpool need to bring through some of the talent we have on the bench/ reserves but most seem to be purchaced from other teams so I rekon j.henry really needs to look at re-developing the clubs academy system

What u think ed? {ed's note - I am not convinced by Benzema, he looks slow and fat to me, not unlike myself!}

What about kevin davis 2day?
king henry

What about him?

The fact that he has waited 13 years to get a first cap for england? If he was that good he would have earned that cap like 10 years back, and he would have been snapped up by a big club.

Granted he has scored a few goals, and is quite physical, but he is not liverpool quality - never has been and never will be.

Liverpool should not be linked with players like Kevin Davies, but with Roy in charge who knows? Maybe Roy was watching him today at the Bolton-Spurs game?

and hesky baros cisse and poluson are and did i say to go and buy the player what he did 2day was help liverpool catch spurs and anyway i like davis always did no player gets under the skin of wenger and most managers like he does, hes not afraid to get about defenders something we have been missing this season but i knows better players out there.

Liverpool Owners NESV Could Take Two Years To Decide Future Of Anfield As John Henry Rules Out New Stadium By 2012

Please don't start breaking promises the way the other yanks did. don't mean to be negative but this could mean that we are going to have another 5 years before a stadiumis built - not good enough!
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
NESV have never really made any promises in public. They are far more calm and measured compared to Hicks and Gillett. I can't see John W Henry stupidly getting wads of cash out of top pocket and showing off their supposed wealth and bragging about what they plan to do in pre match interviews like H&G did on the day of the Champions League final in Athens 2007 in an interview with Sky Sports. Henry and friends seems to have a little more quality than that.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
That 'loadsa' money waving of wads of dollar notes by Gillett in that interview and the stand up row by Rafa with Gillett on the pitch at the end of the CL Final in Athens, just showed the lack of class of H&G. Henry and NESV seem to more upstanding members of the human race.

Gutted that Roy is shipping these two out. For me these were real stars of the future. Just goes to show you, cross this guy and he is ruthless. He doesn't like being questioned.
Roys gotta go, if I wasnt sure earlier, I am convinced now. He is clueless.

Also from the german league, which you can probably tell i like to watch, i woudlnt reccomend Kadlec from leverkusen as a good choice for left back and Barrios from Dortmund for upfront.

* * i meant to say that i Would reccommend Kadlec as a good candidate for left back.


I also like the look of Tomas Necid, young big striker from CSKA Moscow.

Why do you people insist on wasting money on overrated english players? Ed do you agree that the likes of swp, young, c.cole, cahill, agbonlahor etc are just not good enough and would be way overpriced anyway. {ed's note - I fully agree mate, I would rather see kids promoted to the first team if we need home grown players to make the quota.}

Here is some genuine news lads. Spoken to Pachecos mate again today. It seems he is off to St Etienne in January. Deal is done. Were getting Dimitri Payet, a winger. Were giving them Pacheco and Agger!

RE: What about kevin davis 2day?
king henry

What about him?

The fact that he has waited 13 years to get a first cap for england? If he was that good he would have earned that cap like 10 years back, and he would have been snapped up by a big club.

Granted he has scored a few goals, and is quite physical, but he is not liverpool quality - never has been and never will be.

Liverpool should not be linked with players like Kevin Davies, but with Roy in charge who knows? Maybe Roy was watching him today at the Bolton-Spurs game?

God help us!

HONDA - ASIAN MARKET

COLE - HOPE NOT! ! BUT ROY LIKES HIM
A LB? - HOPEFULLY TAIWO/ CISSOKO

ED - wot u fink of the above, if hodgson goes b4 xmas(few rumours going round) then who will replace him and who will be buying our players roy or comillo, also is there any truth in the hulk and Blaise Matuidi rumours? {ed's note - Comolli is picking players, I haven't a clue who will replace Roy when he goes, NESV don't even know themselves yet. I don't know about Hulk and Matuidi, they are mostly just people speculating - Hulk because he wants to move to England and leave his current team and Matuidi because he plays for Comolli's previous team.}

Toni Silva score 2 goals again for the U18's, if liverpool play it properly we could have 2 or 3 great wingers in the future in Sterling, Toni Silva, Pacheco(RF/ CF), Amoo, with Suso behind N'Gog(who i think is improving constantly)

Future team:

? Wisdom Wilson ?

Sterling Shelvey Toni Silva
Pascheco Suso
N'Gog

(or maybe lucky enought to have Lukaku/ Muniain, Wickham for N'gog)

Ladders

ED? Do you think all those could become great players? and whos would be best? {ed's note - they could do, but it is unlikely they will all come good at our club. Suso is the best youth team player I have seen since Gerrard.}

I'd like to mention Reus from Gladbach. Good young wide tricky player, similar to Marin who also would be a good signing. I agree that we lack pace but just cos players like wright phillips has got pace, doesn't mean we should buy him.

Please guys, stop thinking that spending millions on players like ashley young and Swp is the way foward cos it isnt. Glen johnson would be better choice at Right midfield, and just move kelly into first choice rb.

Also from the german league, which you can probably tell i like to watch, i woudlnt reccomend Kadlec from leverkusen as a good choice for left back and Barrios from Dortmund for upfront.

what are we going to do? but them?

Gave me MAJOR Giggle mate thanks!

Liverpool will not be getting a new LB RH is happy with him! Wingers id like are Mata, Elia, Hazard, Cazorla, Lavezzi (CF aswell), Zarate (CF aswell), Shaquiri.
But i want a Natural WIDEman who will actually stay out wide not like Maxi, Jovanovic, Kuyt!
Also ive noticed Milan doesn't complain about playing in his proper position where i think hed be good.

Ed, any chance of Babel being used in a deal to bring Afellay to Anfield? Also, what positions do you think need strengthening and the players you would sign for those positions.

Can people stop suggesting we sign Coentrao, he would cost £20m+ {ed's note - I don't think they could afford Babel's wages, pity as it would be a good way to offload him. For me our main priorities are wingers (Afellay, Emmanuelson or anyone else with an expiring contract should be looked at), striker (Hulk and Llorente would be the ones I would get if we could), then left back (Cissokho or Taiwo), central midfielder is our next weakest (Banega or Javi Martinez).}

Ed - you mention that Hodgsons only been brought in to steady the ship. Granted theres a degree of defenciveness in his style of play but only out of necessity as we've only got one quality senior striker in Torres whos not currently pulling his weight. If the end product was there in so much as Torres hitting the back of the net, im quite sure opinions may start to change about Hodgson. When I say the Liverpool way, i mean a fellow with a bit of substance and character, not some self promoting fly by night like mohrinhio or Rykard. {ed's note - but Roy has always played defensively, this is not about necessity, it is about him being a defensive minded coach.}

In my opinion. .certain player choose teams based on style of play and/ or Trophy winning capabilities and/ or a gr8 manager. . we have none of this. .hence players like Hazard choosing Arsenal. Sanchez Manure. .

Regarding a new manager .

The new owners NESV have every right to sound out a new manager , not least because anyhting can happen in football and NESV are very green in the sport .

Though they might not replace Roy Hodgson should he implement well all of the new initiatives NESV bring and integrate succesfully the player transfers that the new board room structure will sanction , it is wise for them to have a 'choice option' of new management should they wish to succeed Roy Hodgson in due course .

I would love for LFC to turn this season around beginning on sunday .

I am still wondering just what Hodgson's role is being boiled down to with Comolli's appointment though. .is he being squeezed so he'll resign?

Now Roys no longer in charge of transfers it's fair to say nobodys got a clue who were gonna bring in. . 2 things are certain, they will be young and marketable (posterboys).

Contreou (spelling)
Banega
Affelay
Honda
llorente

team next season to look a little like this I hope!

Reina

Johnson - skrtel - agger - contreou

Banega

affelay - gerrard - Honda

Llorente - Torres

any thoughts or changes welcomes but I personally think that's a team that would play confidently and gel together!

Peace out

Re: CM debate versus buying strikers etc. We have decent CMs in Mereilles and Shelvey who should get more run outs. Lucas is also better this season than recently and is an offensive midfielder not a stopper where he been played historically. A significant part of our problem is playing these players out of position which has been going on throughout RBs reign and now into RHs tenure. Merielles needs to have some time in the Middle with SG to let him settle.

Agree we need wingers though. . can't remember the last decent one we had!

{ed's note - I didn't see the need to counter your point, it is clear we don't need central midfielders, we need width.}
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

And I don't recall saying that we didn't need width. Obviously opinions differ, but we need iron in that CM area which is also clear. Our midfield, like I said, is no match to that of the top teams in England and Europe.

Although I agree we could do with another wide player and a left back. But with Kuyt to come back, and Babel there, we have potential in those areas.

Obviously you disagree, but I think we're as in need of a top central midfielder as we are of width. The only one of our midfielders who would get into any of the other top teams is Gerrard. The others wouldn't get a sniff {ed's note - no, I don't disagree, I just don't think it is our main priority, that was what I was trying to say. I wasn't disputing your point as such, just how high on the list of priorities it is.}

Before i start my rant i would just like to say thanks to the ED's for all the work they put in to making this such a good site.
Now, i am getting really p* *sed off at all the talk of us needing to buy a world class striker for 20 - 30 million, i want to see Roy (or a new manager) spend that money on buying some quality wingers, we have the following players who can/ do play as strikers Torres, Ngog, Kuyt, Jovanavic, Babel, Pacheco, Ecclestone and even Cole and Gerrard at a push. In my opinion we are not getting enough support to Torres, how many times have you watched a cross come into the box and there is 2 maybe 3 Liverpool shirts surrounded by defenders. I also think we should play 4-4-2 as when we have brought on a second striker in recent matches our game has improved and we look more dangerous going forward. Theres no point in just blaming Torres for not scoring, he has 2 CB's marking him most of the time and when support does reach him they have every one back, we need to buy some world class wingers who will get to the by-line and stretch defenses to make space for the strikers. If we create chances for Torres he will score.

If you agree you know what to do with the buttons.

One last thing, Carlo 'Jog on' you not having Stevie, he's ours :)

{ed's note - I think it is obvious we are desperate for wingers and strikers but have enough central midfielders.}
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

We have plenty of central midfielders granted, but the quality of those central midfielders is poor, and certainly no match to Chelsea's, Man Utd's, Arsenal's, Tottenham's or even Man City's. And tbh, I think Everton with Arteta, Fellaini and that Russian lad, give us a run for our money as a CM trio.


I totally agree with the above statement , funny enough i was going to post something very similar with my opinion about the cms , we do need wingers and strikers but we do need another DECENT DM , someone like matudi , lass diarra , or banega or defour or whoever , Cause what we have atm is not good enough , lucas yeh hes getting better but is not gd enough for liverpool , end of. poulsen? possibly the worst player ive ever seen , so that leaves gerrard + Raul Merieles and if eiva or both get injured then we are gonna be F* ked , WE DO NEED ANOTHER CM / DM!

Anyone knows what Hogdon's doin on Bolton-Spurs? Shouldn't he be home making tactics for tomorrow? Or is he already sacked?

I reckon he is having a closer look at Gary Cahill

Gary Cahill is a great centre-back and I'd love him at Liverpool. Slightly worried by Bolton's valuation of him though. £15m isn't it? We could go into a foreign market and spend half that and get a player of equal ability.

But then again, we have to keep the home-grown rule in mind. Maybe we'll have no option but to splash out on a few young English players like him. Perhaps a player + cash offer from us, help us offload some of the dead wood.

Hey Ed, what do yer think of this?
In January,

1st and foremost, recall Aqua man.
Then buy Fabio Coentrao (LB), Arda Turan(LW) and Fernando Llorente(ST).

Line-up:

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

Johnson- Skrtel- Agger- Coentrao

Gerrard- Meireles- Aquaman- Turan

- - - - - Llorente- Torres- - - - -

Subs:Jones, Carra, Greek, Konchesky, Lucas, Cole, N'gogYNWA,

Geist {ed's note - I think that might be a little unbalanced, too open for me, maybe shift Turan to the right side of Llorente and play a 4-3-3 instead?}

huddleston
pavlichenko
bale
bently
kranjar
modric?
crouch?
taylor
lee
cahil
davies
elmander?

Which do you think are the most likely of that list.
Could we raid spurs for players with damien here now {ed's note - I don't think there is anyone we could get, other than Lee, that we would want. I don't understand the calls for Cahill, we already have Skrtel, Carra and Kyrgiakos hoofing it from the back, why add another hoofer in Cahill?}

{ed's note - I think it is obvious we are desperate for wingers and strikers but have enough central midfielders.}
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

We have plenty of central midfielders granted, but the quality of those central midfielders is poor, and certainly no match to Chelsea's, Man Utd's, Arsenal's, Tottenham's or even Man City's. And tbh, I think Everton with Arteta, Fellaini and that Russian lad, give us a run for our money as a CM trio.

We used to have the best CM in world football with Gerrard, Alonso and Mascherano. Now we have Gerrard, Lucas and Meireles which is no match for that. And in reserve we have Spearing and Poulsen which is also poor.

I firmly believe we need to improve that area of our team, and for the moment, a deal for Matuidi would satisfy me with Gerrard and Miereles in front of him. I'm not convinced by Miereles at all, however I will judge him after the season is over. And £7m for Matuidi seems a good price, considering other top teams are meant to be chasing him. {ed's note - that 'Russian lad' or Bilyaletdinov, if you prefer, is a left winger.}

In terms of asia i would say honda or lee from bolton. I also rate barrios from dortmund, which would maybe attract an audience from south america. Any others?

Whisper is certain Manc 'Once a blue' superstar has been shipped-off to America to avoid press as he has put on a few pounds through excesses while resting in Dubai. Man with big red nose very concerned and may look to unload in January.

Also hear that Glen Johnson not a popular man and is looking to escape to Spain although no takers so far due to price.

Lastly 3 new faces in January to freshen up attack including left winger.

Mr Justice Tugendhat has ruled that a footballer in England looking to protect himself from personal humiliation though the usage of privacy laws should be named.

This means that the player's name could be revealed in two weeks' time, as he has been given time to appeal the ruling.

This puts celebrities in a tough spot, as they will not be able to remain anonymous behind the veil of a "super injunction".Ed i read on the site that G.Johnson was caught with a man or something indicating that hes gay but he got an injunction against the media reporting. could story be related to that? have you heard anything on this

Many people here go on and on about the need of a striker to partner torres when we have pacheco ecclestone kuyt and even cole and babel who can play there. What we desperately need is width. Wingers who provide pace and width to the team to supply crosses to strikers. So unless we get atleast two good wingers theres no point buying a world class striker. Wingers should be the priority in january. For me affelly and honda or affelly and sanchez.

Great to hear JWH saying he had good discussions with our star players who wer reportedly set to leave, reina, torres, kuyt etc. . hopefully this means that they are not leaving, although if kuyt is going to be played on the right we would probably be better off selling him. .
if we can build around reina torres and gerrard by signing young talent it would be great.

The jury's out for me just now on Torres. A dip in form is acceptable and part of the game, footballers are only human and may have distractions in their personal life.

However, since returning from the world up and Rafas departure, Nando, for me has been exhibiting that he is either a spoilt brat wanting to engineer a move way from the club or just bone idol and lost interest.

H's been hiding in every game he's featured, very much rooneyesque in the world cup. Is this somehing that's filtering ino the game now and consistent with 'player power' comments made by Ian Holloway recently. If aplayer can't get his own way, have a sulk and a mood and engineer what you desire.

My patience is wering thin with Nando just now, i'd rather put him on the bench and give ecclestone a run. Hopefuly a rocket uphis backside and a signal to suggest that he's not the messiah may get him firing on all cylinders again. if it is that he no longer wants to play for us, then lets cash in and move on.

In my opinion, the team are holding the ball well and commanding the lion share of possession. Its all well and done arguing that Nando's not getting the service but maybe if he started gambling with his runs and putting a bit more effort into creating his own space, the midfield may find him and the team yield the rewards with goals.

Agree or disagree?

Liverpool have a void in midfield when poulsen and or lucas play there , they are both inept players and are not even up to the championship standard , these players must go in jan or at least the summer . liverpool could maybe get 10 million in total for both of them .January can't come quick enough getting rid of all the dead wood at the club (and there's alot) and get some some new eager fresh inventive creative hungry players who have sometime to give the club and want to win at all costs.
players on my wish list are
llorente

Was at the O2 the other evening (Peter Kay- v.good) and was chatting to a guy who is a colleague of Henry over in the states. He basically said the bloke demands results (from experience in Boston) & Woy will be given his p45 unless Liverpool show an element of challenging for 4th space.

I know it's not too exciting to read as I'm not splashing a wish list of players & prices around, but commercially wise- Liverpool will become much bigger. They will really break in to Asia & the States therefore incurring new cash for the club long term.

In my opinion we as a club have never really "gone for it" as we should have- whether it's a modest old fashioned respect of the club, I don't know- but there is much more to make out of the brand that is LFC. I personally blame people like Rick Parry who rested on his laurels & didn't market us correctly.

Also over the years, as a club we have always paid over the odds for players & sold them too cheaply e.g. Barmby, Berger, Fowler, Carson, Kirkland, the list goes on!

Also how much capital have we wasted on unfulfilled youth players, goalkeepers over the last 12-15 years. I know it sounds silly, but what is the point in having a youth system if we are going to flog them to clubs like Huddersfield, Burnley & co for peanuts without ever giving them a proper crack of the hip. I know alot of people will be thinking They wern't good enough, so might as well get rid- but think of all that money wasted on bring them up through the ranks, the academy & co if they never reap the rewards- in playing terms & financially.

In a nutshell- top six by beginning of dec, or Woy has to go as we might as well get a young manager!

"Hodgson uses me badly."
-Roberto Carlos whilst still at Internazionale

"My problem at Inter was Hodgson, Roy Hodgson.He wanted me to play as a forward when I'm a defender-I prefer to have space ahead of me to run into rather than be a winger already up there;for me it's better to have 80 metres to play in than 20.I didn't like the system or where Hodgson wanted me to play in it.He wanted me further up the pitch, sure, but stopped, still, rigid.
The Copa America was coming up and I was playing at left-back for Brazil, so I wanted to play there for Inter too.I had to leave because I didn't want to jeapardise my chances with the national team. .I spoke to Massimo Morratti. .and it soon became clear that the only solution was to leave."
-Roberto Carlos.

Meireles, Agger, Pacheco, Shelvey. .ring a bell?

"Hodgson must be given till end of the season" band, be careful what you wish for, cause you might just get it. .at a hefty price.

Silver Song

Ps:btw, the "Hodgson must be given till end of the season" editor hasn't answered me as to why, with respect to harmony in the squad, tactics, performances and results, would it be to the detriment of Liverpool Football Club to sack Hodgson right now and replace with maybe the King till May.
Why, with all the player disillusionment and fan unrest with Hodgson, do you think it's still in our interests to keep this man, ed? {ed's note - I don't understand his resistance to change, maybe it is just because he is old? Old people don't like change......}

I'm not one to speculate but just read this on the bbc website about Tom Werner:

. .Werner feels Liverpool have great potential to increase revenue by raising their profile in the emerging markets of Asia to help boost the transfer kitty.

"We are planning to make a trip to Asia in the summer. Liverpool is a great club in Asia but we plan to expand our reach there, " said Werner.

How do you do that? Get someone they can relate to? anyone else think a move for Honda is inevitible?

Also fits J W henrys plan by being reletivley young at 24.

P.S. I remember seeing a post about us making the money back on his shirt sales alone but not exactly a selling point to me (a fan), the fact hes a great player should be all that matters (as well as being able to play wide which we are desperate for! ) but i understand its nice when a player can benefit the team and the balance sheet

Thank god the world suddenly stopped making senes for a second

Your kidding right? C.Cole is world class and a pl proven striker. He's a very hard working player. Whose strong with his head and is good with both feet. He has fantasic movement and would be bargin for 15 million.

Damien duff has fantasic experience, gives lots of width and has a great left foot. He can play both rw and lw. One of the best wingers in pl history. If we get Damien duff for 15 million then we'd get a steal. You laughing yet? Was kidding. There awful

seriously is that you again Roy?

Yes I am Roy. The team for Sunday will be

Renia
carragher skrtel kyrgiakos konchesky
kuyt lucas miereles maxi
gerrard
torres

I've decieded to stop playing youngsters and have be given 45 million to buy my players. I'm looking at:
C.Cole
D.Bentley
D.Duff
D.Dunne

you lot like? There all world class who can bring us to the next level. If you believe this then your drunk!

I think roy will be given to the end of the season ed, comolli will identify the players in jan, with that burden removed hodgeson will be told to concentrate on coaching. the problem with replacing him now is, all good managers are currently at clubs, and many that would be interested in the job in the summer might turn us down now, meaning we might end up with our 2nd even 3rd choice. also alot can happen in a short time in football and im sure a few surprise managers would be interested, me personally would love pep guidiola from barca, his contract is up in summer and think he would be fantastic, ticks all the right boxes, young, succesfull, ambitious, plays great football, and has openly said he won't be at barca more than another 2 years.
a few people on here have mentioned bojan as a potential transfer target, im not sure bout you ed, but i always felt masch was let go way 2 cheapley, and bojan should have been involved in the deal, i would have happily taken 5 6m less and had bojan included, same as when alonso went to madrid, there were many players that we should have inclueded in the deal, alot of them also be touted now, lass, drenthe etc.

Liverpool have lined up Marseille full-back Cesar Azpilicueta as a possible replacement for Glen Johnson, should the Englishman decide to leave Liverpool, as reports suggest.

The Spaniard has struggled to make an impact at the Stade Velodrome following his 7m Euros (£6m) move from Osasuna in the Summer, having made only four league appearences. Azpilicueta attracted the interest of Arsenal and Man City following his impressive form for Osasuna, and the Liverpool hierarchy may look to take advantage of his grievances in France by offering him an escape route.

Such a deal depends on Glen Johnson's future at Anfield, with the England international reportidly disillusioned with life at Anfield following a poor start to the season, with Inter Milan and Real Madrid said to be monitering developments.

Marseille would look to recoup the 7m Euros they paid for Azpilicueta, which should present no problems for Liverpool, particularly if any club meets their £14m valuation of Glen Johnson.

GLEN JOHNSON WILL JOIN MALAGA FOR 17M EUROS IN JANUARY. HE WILL GET A VERY LUCRATIVE 4 AND A HALF YEAR CONTRACT. MALAGA ARE OWNED BY A RICH QATARI WHO WANTS MALAGA IN THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE.

My three would be: Suso, Ayala and Shelvey. What'd you think? I also like the look of Andre Wisdom. He reminds me of a more technical Rio Ferdinand. {ed's note - I think Ayala and Wisdom are excellent prospects too, and Mavinga, he has the pace and power to be a success.}

Add Sterling to that list as well

{ed's note - that is a different editor mate. I would choose Suso, he is the brightest of them all, Coady, if he gets to play in midfield he can run a game, reminds me of Roy Keane a little bit and Shelvey. What about you, who would you say are the brightest prospects?}

Suso definitely. Not seen enough of Coady to comment. Shelvey has great potential, he just needs to build confidence to express himself more on the pitch.

Van Der Wiel, Contreao, Honda (Jan), Hazard, Afellay (Jan) & Bojan (Jan-Loan) to be the players that form the basis of Liverpools team for the next few years.

Ed. who do you believe we will sign this january transfer window and who are the most likely?
i think we most certainly think that we need a winger that is fast, can take on players and cross the ball. . what we havent had for a long time and we also need a striker that can hold the ball up and finish unlike torres at the moment and is consistent unlike torres.
thanks ed. {ed's note - the most likely players are on expiring contracts or playing in a league that finishes in December. Players such as Afellay, Taiwo and Emanuelson on expiring contracts and ones currently at Russian, Scandinavian or South American clubs, such as Honda. Though, with Comolli taking charge of transfers, your guess is as good as mine who we will actually end up signing.}

Anybody agree that bojan krkic should be looked at? everything we need, young striker, quick, could partner torres well, and out of favour at barca!
what u all think?
ed? {ed's note - if we could get him, yes he would be a very good signing.}

Liverpool owner John W Henry has declined to give any long-term guarantees to Roy Hodgson over his future as manager.
The American did however confirm there were no plans for change at present. Asked if Hodgson, under pressure after a poor start to the season, was the right man for the job, Henry told Sky Sports News: "He certainly is at this point. "We tend to stay with our managers and our general managers. Roy didn't build this team so I think he has been unfairly criticised this year. Looks like we will have to wait a while until he gets the push. Just hope it's not too far away!

Theres alot of discussion about Pacheco and Roys reluctance to play him. Granted he's a talent with skill, but his style of play requires refining or it can become a liability. His first touch isn't quite up to scratch and he rushes his play sometimes due to his raw eagerness. The fellow Lavezze last night looked like a refined Pacheco but Pacheco' s certainly not at that level just now. Roys right in holding him back.

awesome team mate, you agree ed?

{Editor's Note: I don't comment on teams I am afraid.}

why's that? you have done hundreds of times in the past.
one quick question, who do you think our 3 brightest young prospects are? {ed's note - that is a different editor mate. I would choose Suso, he is the brightest of them all, Coady, if he gets to play in midfield he can run a game, reminds me of Roy Keane a little bit and Shelvey.
