KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Selling REINA for 20m, cud buy..............

certainly is during the modern prem league I am not disputing that. I just don't think it would be a big deal as everyone makes out if he left. Hes an excellent shot stopper but doesn't dominate the area enough for me, also feel he's very prone to drop a clanger in the big game. Dont think hes been at his best the past 2 seasons, has cost us a few games.

I feel the excellent defence we have had in the past was also a great help to him. when we had sami,agger, carra, arbeloa, riise, and the benefit of masch covering the defence. the back 5 or 6 where solid as a unit.

I think thats why we have conceded so many over the last few seasons, Lucas is not strong enough in the def mid role. Skrtel is a donkey and the greek is solid but not in the same league as a Hyypia.

Few half decent keepers about who could do the job.

I think we should be more concerned with central def, centre/def mid and the wide areas.

Its such a difficult position to fill,thats why half decent keepers wont do.
And tbh i dont get what you mean by not dominating his area,its not like he's too scared to come off his line??

he stays at home to much. needs to come out and clatter a few strikers

i reckon hes going to leave this summer, just got this feeling.

I would like him to stay but if he goes then we will get a capable replacement in I have no doubt.

the point I am making is that it will not be as big a loss as people make out in my opinion.

Huge loss imo,we will have to agree to disagree on this one.
Until i hear of the who the targets are to replace him are i will remain concerned.

I think Reina is an asset we should not allow to leave if we can prevent it. However, were I Reina I would have only 2 potential clubs to move to - Arsenal and Man U. And with Arsenal once again been shown for having no bottle [seriously? Can't win any crucial matches, and going 2-0 down against Hodgson's West Brom???], and considering the average Arsenal fan is not even considering Reina as a replacement (they also seem to want De Gea), frankly it's a choice between Man U or LFC for Reina. So the question is, how much does Reina want to leave? If he "kinda wants" to go then depending on how much pride he has in the LFC shirt will depend on whether he moves to the scum. If he's desperate to play in the CL, then we have no chance of keeping him.

Any keeper will look good if his defensive line is solid, and under Rafa we were very good at the back. But by the same token any keeper will look rubbish if his defensive line is weak. Ask Almunia.

I also think all this talk of Neuer is rubbish. How many German players leave their league for the EPL? Other than Ballack I can't think of any off the top of my head (or at least none that were any good).

We should go for Hugo Lloris. He's a fantasitc keeper. Btw is he not old and he has a nice future in the no.1

we shouldnt go big to replace reina we should buy a good solid keeper and buy a top class outfield player that we need

Ask Wenger how that's worked out for him.

i said a solid keeper like given (who arsenal would kill for) arsenal's keepers are awful and there defender are sh!t as well unlike ours so that just a stupid thing to say, anyway im just saying if we sell reina for 25 mil and buy lloris or de gea for the same money we havent moved forward as a team imagine if we used all of the torres money to sign someone like aguero we wouldnt have moved forward as a team

Gotta say I agree with thundyr. No point trying to be clever with the Reina money if we sell him. GK is a position you need quality in, makes no sense not to spend big on it if we loose one of the worlds best. We might not be moving forward with it but the alternative is moving backwards which is just stupid.
