KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Man city will be selling.................

players on the cheap in the summer, to make room for new signings.

I think players like Richards, A Johnson, Milner, will be allowed to leave in the summer and all 3 wud be great signings for LFC, i think.

we dont need richards dont like him at all

johnson would be sound but cant see city selling to rivals

Richards wud be a good signing cuzz he can play rite back and center half, plus he is a better defender than Johnson.

or both clubs cud do a swap deal, with city paying cash on top, to sign johnson.

I'd swap Johnson for Johnson, and throw money at Richards to replace Carra. This in addition to Cahill, not either or, because Agger/Krygiakos/Sktrel aren't good enough often enough (Agger is certainly good, but if he can't play half a season then he needs to be shown the door).

good ideal their thundyr, swapping Glen for Adam johnson and signing richards, cahill.

with the above quality center halfs signed, i think Agger can be rotated with these players, and hopefully Agger picking up less injuries cuzz he is being rotated/rested for certain games, this allowing Agger to play more games, over a season.

i think to get the best out of Agger and to keep him fit, injure free, is to play him in, every other game, i think Agger picks up injuries wen he is asked to play 3/4 games in a row.

Sahko is better than Cahill and will be available for at least 7 million less. Plus he can play LB too.

Cahill is a very good defender but he ain't worth 20 million.

Agree about Adam Johnson. At his age he needs to play regularly but can't see City selling to us.

absolutly + he is younger and stronger...

I have no problem with getting Sahko - any of these players will improve our squad - just as long as we don't stop at one new CB, especially if Glen wants out (because he knows he's not starting for LFC ahead of either Kelly or whoever we sign at LB - he's a luxury we probably can't afford right now). As long as we can replace the squad player at RB and LB (no disrespect to Flano and Robinson) Glen can do whatever he wants. Sahko + Richards is probably best for us - two CBs capable on the ball enough to fill in as fullbacks to add to Kelly and Agger would make is very easy for us to switch between a back 4 and a back 3; we could start 3-5-2 and then sub Carra for A. Johnson and play 4-3-3.

As for the Agger question: as menace suggests, playing him off-and-on may work a treat.

the thing with city is they don't have to sell

and they won't let anyone leave "on the cheap" especially if its for the benefit of one of their rivals in the league

1. City won't be selling Johnson.
2. You having a laugh about buying Richards to replace carragher, who is still by far the best defender we've got at the club, his experience, leadership skills and organisation skills are second to none, and to pass that experience on to younger defenders at the club is invaluable. Richards is a shocking defender, and is to reliant on his pace at times.
3. I agree with getting a cente half, Cahill for agger, and maybe one more
4. Glen Johnson is still one of the best attacking full bcos in the country, and its only making things more difficult by getting rid, when we could do with keeping the quality thy we have got in the squad
