We should just tade Babel for Turan then or keep babel and then at the end of thseason use him to pay towards signing Silva or Mata

We've had that before with John Arne Riise, not much after teams have gotten the hang of it.

The one player i really really want to see at Liverpool (a player we can realistically get if we have the funds) is David Villa... I think he's probably the best striker in the world today.. Torres and Drogba are both world class but i think in terms of natural talent and ability, Villa edges it..

Anyways, i think he's too good for Valencia and him leaving to go to a bigger side is only a matter of time. Just hope ManUtd, Chelsea and even ManCity dont end up signing him because i think if any of the top clubs sign him then he could very well prove to be the big difference maker over the course of a season just like Ronaldo was for united...

Hopefully, end of the season with a new manager with some funds, we bid for him and switch to a 4-4-2 formation... With him and Torres in the side and Gerrard behind i think we'd probably have the best attacking trio in the world never mind England...

Although I very much love David Villa for his supreme finishing, he is very selfish with the ball. If you've watched Spain in the confederations cup, they have missed so many chances simply because Villa would not think of passing to Torres who is in a better position to score.
Sorry but, Villa is no good unless in the unfortunate event that Torres leaves, Villa would make a good replacement.
We need a strong physical player that holds the ball and is good in the air, that's why John Carew, Heskey, Carlton Cole and van Nistlerooy were under the radar.

Liverpool Transfer Bonanza - Sell 4, Get one free!
Wed 06 Jan 2010

Welcome to the great LFC January giveaway. This month we have a once in a lifetime (well until the next transfer window) special offer to fans.

We will be selling 4 members of the first team squad and replacing them with just one player. This offer runs for a limited time, subject to terms and conditions (i.e. That whilst having to offload players from the wage bill and recouping transfer fees, the manager can't have this money to spend).

Whilst the above might sound flippant, it is also true. For the 3rd successive transfer window, LFC look like they will have a minimal net spend and the manager not being backed as promised - we are still waiting for Snoogy Doogy.

Liverpool FC should be concentrating on winning matches, picking up silverware along the way. Instead, we find ourselves selling simply to pay down the debt - a debt we didn't want and were told would not be placed on the club.

Christian Purslow has briefed the press that this is all part of his grand plan as values are over-inflated in the January window. But what if we fail to qualify for the Champions League, Mr Purslow? Cue "the market is over-inflated in a World Cup transfer window" briefings to the press.

We may be wrong. Tom and George might be about to do a sudden u-turn and splash the cash, backing the manager and helping move us forward on the pitch. But we doubt it.

So go on then Tom and George, prove us wrong!

There's no question we are in a period of dark times right now for the club. We have owners who are extremely reluctant to spend any money, and a manager who when he gets some spends it on 20 million pound players who he doesn't pick. Dark days indeed.

i dont know if anyone has posted about this player already, but anyone take a punt on jermaine beckford?

by **aCe'** » Thu Jan 07, 2010 1:26 am

I think we should be in for Beckford... think we've been linked to him...
Havent seen much of him but from the little i've seen he seems to be a good player... Direct and wouldnt take any time to adapt to the pace and physicality of the league...

Another player we should be in for is Patrick Vieira... I think his deal to ManCity is almost done, but i cant understand why we didnt go for him especially with our situation and with his contract running out soon..

If we could have managed to get Vieira, Maxi and Beckford (all for peanuts but relatively high wages) it would have gone a long way towards solving our problems at least in the short term...

Still think it is possible to perform as LFC manager. Selling just to service the massive debt obligations. I told you. It is over. LFC as we know it isn't any more. Rest in peace.
