Robert Huth (Stoke City)

Said as well we are only buying players for the starting 11, does that mean we will have a defence containing Konchesky and Huth.

 Oh my F***ing days this getting F***ing ridiculous now. I want to ask John Henry why he allowing a manager to blow money on a lad clearly not good enough when he tells us he will be listening to fans who by recent polls 96% of fans want Hodgson gone.

 I'm starting to get worried, I don't think NESV could make a more underwhelming first signing.

I just can't imagine this to happen, is it Comolli ? FSG ? Ah come on Roy !

Supposedly Woy was an admirer of this lad in his Fulham days, I thought these horror signings were gone with the end of the Hicks and Gillette tenure.

F**k me I'm starting to hope we F***ing lose the next few matches to scupper any signings Hodgson may be planning in January.

 Simon Clancy is on twitter now saying Hodgson gives out about having to clean up the sh*t after Rafa, imagine the job the next manager will have trying to get rid of the dead wood brought in by Hodgson

Agree, a tree surgeon for the next manager!

It might even scare manager candidates away...

Agree with your views on the player, but stop talking like if it was a done deal, no need to crucify Roy for something he didn't do, and possibly never intended to.

Not that we don't have many other reasons to crucify him (I want him gone, too), I just find it odd how one day we're laughing at the press (Pepe to United, for example) and the other we're taking their words as the truth.

Huth may or may not think he's due a move to LFC, but apparently he's not on the club's wanted list. Panic over.

- Paul Tomkins

I crucifying him because it is as clear as f**king day he is trying to sign him unless you think a) it is either made up and Simon Clancy and Paul Tomkins are talking sh*t on Twitter and Robert Huth is deluding himself telling Simon Clancy it is happening or b) you think he is a transfer target of Comoli or NESV.

Neither Paul Tomkins or Simon Clancy linked Reina to Utd, it is about who says it Diego, there is a lot of people working in the media some people are more reliable.

Just read Tomkins update, I can chill now. This signing would be scandalous to say the least. Paul Tomkins is the most reliable Liverpool journalist around.

Last Tomkins update on twitter : Huth may or may not think he's due a move to #LFC, but apparently he's not on the club's wanted list. Panic over.

Thank christ for that.

What a completely bewildering signing that would have been.

Phew !!!!! Thank god for that.

Heard off me mate who drinks in a pub near Anfield that this is in fact a story to cover our move for Hazard and Dzeko! We are only chasing Edin's!!

Thinking of growing a moustache what ye think?

Nice one 

Twitters going into to Melt Down over this.

Personally I don't think we'll get him, unless Roy is considering letting go Agger or Soto.

All the rumours are that Agger is the one getting binned.

Apparently we've been touting him round clubs trying to get shut.

Come on here expecting to see 'Liverpool to tie up Huth deal' or something. Thank F**k!!

If we sign himself and Cole, I'll need to go on medication for depression

Supposedly in a directors box at Anfield tonight, what the F**k is the club becoming. Didn't realise Hodgson could transform us into Fulham so quick.

Are you F***ing joking?

If this is true NESV and Comoli are a bunch of jokers.

Apparently that was a load of sh*te.

Only Marveaux was spotted.

Reds make Huth enquiry

Skysports.com understands Liverpool have made a firm enquiry for Robert Huth.

However, Stoke appear intent on keeping the Germany international.

Huth has played over 20 times for the Potters already this season and is proving he is well over the fitness concerns which blighted his previous spells with Chelsea and Middlesbrough.

The towering centre-back moved to the Britannia Stadium in the summer of 2009 when Stoke paid Boro £5million for his services.

Tony Pulis has been delighted by Huth's impact but his form has attracted the attention of rival clubs, including Liverpool.

Skysports.com understand that the Reds made an enquiry earlier this week.

It is believed the struggling Anfield outfit would have been willing to pay £5million, but it is understood Stoke would want double that before even considering doing a deal.

What an unambitious signing this would be, fair enough he's a big strong centre back who can get his head on the ball but isn't that more of what we already have and of a better calibre, certainly Kyrgiakos and to a lesser extent Skrtel who's slightly better overall, surely we've got enough big slow defenders surely.

He's a decent player who clearly fits into the type of tactic that Stoke employ, but surely we can go for a bit better than this, maybe dare I suggest extend our sights further than premier league teams of a lesser reputation. I suppose he could be a good backup player but we already know how inflated the prices get when you sign a player from your own division.

Decent player yes, do Liverpool FC need decent players...?

Do we want to go back to the top level or just want to plod along buying journeymen players like Huth
