      there is a saying about a Giraffe being a horse designed by a committee. I guess our team is a footballing Giraffe

      I thought it was a camel... it makes more sence as we all have the hump

      I'd go all in for Lars Bender or Christoph Kramer (both from Leverkusen, but Kramer is on loan at Gladbach so likely not to be a possibility in January), a keeper (there are a few good ones in Germany, such as Horn and Leno) and a striker - that's the most difficult one, can't think of a reasonable name here. I really wish we had signed Sanchez...

      To be fair Rodgers wanted Bony, Sanchez and Eriksen here. But the committee dictated otherwise. I trust him to be given license to sign a striker of his choosing. But I never want him to have control over a defensive signing ever again!

      I think in the case of Sanchez it was the played who picked Arsenal over us.

      I think Bony or Martinez are the best obtainable options available in January. As for keepers Cech would be great if he signed as out new No.1 as he would have a point to prove against the Chavs for dropping him. Bender would be great but we already signed Can so can't see that happening. I would love Cabaye to replace Allen too. We need some more pace in the side as well so Shaqiri might be worth a punt.

      Cech
      Cabaye
      Shaqiri
      Bony or Martinez

      All players I stated during the Summer window that I wanted us to sign. All would make a massively positive difference to the current squad.

      Yeah. I'd take Cech as well if it was an option - which it may well be considering we are no threat to Chelsea this season.  Although why would Chelsea leave themselves short of an excellent back up keeper?

      And why would Cech want to join us too? Still think he's world class and I would rank him as the best in PL still.

      Still pisses me off.
      How the F**k did we raid Southampton and not come away with Schneiderlin?

      We probably wouldn't have played him - their scouts and youth team coaches, on the other hand...  ;)

      The answer is simple: Liverpool have not hired me (yet).

      Keeper, Centre Back and a top class striker, As Bill Shankly would of done strength through the middle and then we can start with the fringes.

      A keeper. Shouldn't cost much. Loan or oldie but Goldie just to steady the ship

      A striker instead of Borini; again possibly a loan given that origi will be here next year but someone who can inject pace.

      A defensive coach for obvious reasons

      Telegraph -

      Lyon president Jean Michel Aulas says forward Alexandre Lacazette will not leave to move to Anfield next month.

      "Lacazette won’t go anywhere. We have enough money so that we can keep him," he said.

      Lacazette has scored 15 goals in 18 starts so far, which has seen his stock rise dramatically.

      Casillas/Cech/Horn
      Lars or Sven Bender
      Lacazette

      I'd take Defoe on loan till the end of the season if we have to wait till Summer for a striker like Lacazette...

      Worst season at this stage for 50yrs. A game we blitzed 5-1 last yr, and we nearly lost if not for a last min equaliser.

      Yet some here are taking about Mr Sparkly Teeth like he's Rafa, Bob and Bill all rolled into one, and we're 6 pts clear of Chelsea.

      Thats not just laughable. Its plain sad.
