Stephen Warnock to return on loan?

Caught sight of this this morning

Good idea or not? i did always like warnock solid defender in my opinion.

Sky saying this has been agreed. I know it's sky though.

Not good enough for villa, not good enough for us.

No chance, if he can't even get a regular place at Villa, why would we want him?

Not good enough for villa, not good enough for us.

He is good enough for both clubs IMO, just because Houllier isn't playing him doesn't mean he isn't good enough.

Being told it's very close to done. Mrs Konchesky is going to be pissed

Houllier has played him quite a few times and every time I've seen him he's been poor.

Strange one. Is he superior to Aurelio. I dont think so. Isnt Insua coming back from loan this week also?

I like Warnock but I see no point in us signing players that are not better then what we have already in place (Im not including Koncheskey in that statement)

Aurelio can't play more than a game a week, insua is shocking and doubt he will get a look in with Kenny, warnock makes sense on all counts.

Insua's positional play was his big downfall. He will learn that with age

Warnock had a really good 09/10 season, I remember thinking a few times that he could have still done a job at LFC. I think its just Houllier is trying to stamp his managerial boot at Villa and some faces don't fit the mould he's trying to create.

I think it's one of those signings that I'd be more than prepared to give to the end of the season and could improve us. If it didn't work out he will (unless injured) will have a similar resale value so not much would be lost.

One thing we're lacking at the moment is someone who can cross a ball into the box, every cross we do now totally misses a red shirt. Warnock's capable and I wouldn't knock his signing.

Nowhere near as good as Fabio but Warnock will be a more reliable option.

I'd be quite happy with this because I can't face seeing that baldy b***ard playing another match. No offence meant to other baldies!

I hate going backwards!

Exactly TR13. Some of the thinking on here defies logic.

Warnock is a good left back (both in attack and defense) and much better than when he left us - he would add to our team and he'd be an improvement on what we currently have, in my opinion. So it's a yes from me.  

I've no problem with a loan deal for the rest of the season if it means concentrating on attacking options in this transfer window.

Could mean we can get the DM, wide player and maybe striker that I think we need.

I really like Warnock. Just because Houllier isn't playing him doesn't mean he isn't good enough. A great talent and would be a valuable asset to the team. Jez, Kenny is really shoving the boot into Konchesky .

Isnt Insua coming back from loan this week also?

is he??


As for Warnock, I'm on the fence, I don't especially want him back. But I would take him. He did look very good a few years back,  ya a good few seasons at Blackburn and people were touting him for an England call-up. Haven't seen much of him lately tho.

is he??

Sure i saw something on his Facebook... and if so then we really dont need warnock aside for one thing, and its not natural ability.

We need a few fighters in the team and a few players that know what is expected of them / the LFC way! Now I know Warnock left us but as luke said - there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine just persons who need no repentance... If you get my drift...

You've offended nearly half our squad there mate.

As for Warnock, I'd take him.  In hindsight we should never have let him go, but he was plagued by injuries himself for a while.

And I also think a lot of our fans are blinded by Aurelio's ability because of the other options we have there, or lackof.  Yes he can whip in a good ball, takes good free kicks and has a bit of skill about him - but IMO, defensively, he ain't all that sound either.  He is obviously the best we have at the minute, but we can do better and Warnock might just be that.

Not good enough for villa, not good enough for us.

No chance, if he can't even get a regular place at Villa, why would we want him?

What a poor logic that is. Mascherano surely wasn't good enough for us then was he? How about judging him on his performances rather than his starting role?

For me, it's without doubt a yes. A massive improvement on Konchesky, Fabio and Insua (sorry I just don't get the love for Fabio, had a good 08/09 season, nothing since to be honest).

Warnock knows how to defend and knows when to go forward. I'm sure he would relish a chance to prove a point here that Rafa was wrong to sell him.

I'm all for this.

Cant be worse that what we are saddled with at the moment.

All we now need is a loan bid for jimmy tarore and we have sorted the left back position.

Rafa made a mistake letting him go. When Aurellio gets injured -not if- then it's back to PK at LB. is that what people want?
