      I know its early but all this talk about Daniel Alves and Micheal Owen has got me thinking about who we need to buy to strengthen our team as we are struggling in certain places of the field.

      Daniel Alves?? great buy BUT i wouldnt want to see Finnan loose his place i think finnan is brilliant ( but it would create more competition so maybe it would be great! )

      The buy for me would have to be Joquin from valecia. I don't think pennant is good enough to be playin at this level (dont get me wrong he is a good player but just not top class which is what a team like Liverpool FC needs)

      Discuss??

      I'd say we give pennant until the summer to prove himself, but we need to strenghthen in RB so we should go for alves but we shouldn't be needing a lot of new faces.

      joaquin just moved to valencia this summer, 20 million ++ i think. so it'll be unlikely that he could make a move here. been an admirer of the fella for quite awhile!

      Hmm, other than the fact that we ARE going to sign Lucas Neill... Which I'm not too happy about.
      To be honest, who is there to buy? That we accually need?
      We've got enough strikers, midfielders, defenders, goalkeeper's...
      Any idea's lads? (And Lasses)

      After tonight not sure if we do have enough midfielders.  Any more injuries and we could be in trouble!

      Who do we need.  A World Class striker, A World Class winger.  It's all very well saying give Pennant time but I don't think he will ever make the grade.  He is above average at best.  We should be in the market for the Dalglish's of this world.

      Sorry mate, Torres will be nearer £15m+, Alves £12m+.
      sounds as tho' Neill is as good as a done deal, and heard they had signed the young Argy full back last nite.

      i dont think torres will be worth just 10 million cause we spent 9 on kuyt and rafa could have just upped it a lil to get torres if that was the case last summer.

      we spent quite a lot this summer. almost 20 mil i think. how much do we have left in the bank? for qualifying to CL's later stages that's about 10 mil ++ more in the bank. and there's the ongoing takeover talks, so we might have the cash injection we badly need.

      question is, should we go on a spending spree? this season's signing haven't really gelled with the team and i always believe it's a matter of getting used to each other. these dudes came to liverpool with credentials, they're not useless. maybe too much signings at one time isn't that good. i say we have faith in the remaining lads and this january we go shopping for a right back.

      but if the likes of fernando torres or david villa were to appear on the doorstep, they are so much welcome!

      Emiliano Insua of Boca Juniors. A promising 17 year old left back. One for the future though.

      i think rafa made a mistake in the transfer window that summer

      pennant, kuyt, bellamy, aurelio, palleta,

      I WOULD HAVE BOUGHT: Daniel Alves, Duff ! , Kuyt (yes well done) but also torres or.. david villa and definetly Joaquin ( who has now moved to valencia !!  >:( )

      So = D Alves / Duff / Torres / Kuyt / Joaquin

      i should manage Liverpool  ;) 8)

      i wouldnt touch duff a lit firework! have you forgot he turned us down for chelski. as for alves/torres/juaquin 'YES' but with almost all jan windows,there is  never any top players for sale.
      the players we have will just have to lift their socks up and plough on and prove to everyone that they deserve to wear their liverpool shirts. plus we have plenty of young talent that are proberbly ripping their arms off to prove their place in the team.

      okay i no some people r goin to hate this but i think we should get rid of alonso comeon you have to admit he hasnt done anything really for a while he cant defend and cant attack all he can do is pass... if we sell alonso that puts some funds in the bank.
      Jan transfer buy: Simao (every1 forgot bout him), alves and maybe another striker

      Rid: Alonso, and mayb reina (he is appallin, dudek back and give carson or kirkland a chance for once) and some one else? I think we shud have kept pongolle stupid gettin rid of him... it really was mayb buy him back?

      get rid of alonso ??? why ! maybe he aint having the best start to the season,but he aint the only liverpool player not on form. has it been forgotten what he done for us, like its been said 'its a dip in form,but he'l soon be back.
      alonso has to be one of the best passers in the game with great vision, so give him a break.
