      Liverpool identify Swiss sensation as next Kop hero

      Liverpool are reportedly monitoring Valentin Stocker - with a view to making a January bid for the Swiss youngster.

       According to German website 4-4-2, Liverpool boss Roy Hodgson - who managed the Switzerland national team - is keen to use his contacts in Swiss football to push through a deal for the 21-year-old FC Basel midfielder.

      Valentin has caught the eye of a host of European clubs since bursting onto the scene two years ago, and has since gone on to represent his country - scoring three times in just six appearances thus far.

      A fleet-footed attacking midfielder with an eye for goal, Valentin would certainly fit with the ethos of new Liverpool owners NESV in their quest to invest in young talent to develop a squad for the future at Anfield.

      Dunno if it is Hodgson recommending him I'd worry.

      Stocker has talent, but i'd rather have Shaqiri here.

      Depends on the amount of money it would take. I am all for putting more guys in our youth system (If it's even worthy of being called a system yet). I know he is already 21 but his best years are surely to be in front of him. But anything over 1.5-2 million is a waste.
