KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum What posistion do we need to sign players?

In this order, LW, LB, RW, CB, CM, back up ST.

Our problems is we never had the right players in the right place, we usually shift them into unusual positions, so we need the players to fill in the missing patches, and I would love it if they have the ability to sort of switch positions for a while, to allow a flowing attacking move.

We need two wingers for sure as if we need to change the formation to 4-4-2 for a game we need to have the options available.

I know we have suarez, carroll, kuyt, ngog upfront but if we can't promote anyone from the youth into that strikers role incase one of them gets injured we should maybe sign someone as back up.

I know we say we need a left back but am interested to see if maybe one of the younger kids could play there. Reason being i would like hope we will be in the opponents half next season more often in which case defending should have less pressure on them.

1 LW (Mata / Hazard)
1 CB (Cahill/Sakho)
1 LB (Coentrao / Enrique)
1 CM (Adam)
1 ST (Wickham / Lukaku)

in that order.

don't mind if we can only pick up 2 or 3 as long as we sign quality players.

theres about £400k/pw we can shed from the wage bill. we need a good clear out

konchesky, cole, poulsen, jovanovic, kyriagkos, aquilani, insua, degan, el zhar, darby, n'gog, brad jones, aurelio, ayala

£25m?

you think we need a CB more than a LB?

Just a quick note on another striker. I know Carroll is struggling lately but with a fresh start and a big rest since he is not in the Euros he should be able to remain injury free and lets hope that Suarez can also do so for the new season. I believe we will be okay having Kuyt as well until next January. For me, I would forget about another striker for now and focus solely on those positions that we lack depth in.

still think we need another since we selling ngog ...kuty had a great season but never did it regually so bit unsure - if we want top 4 or title must make sure players fear us ...he more a sqaud player next 2 years for me.

LB. LW. CB. RW. Sriker. CM. in that order.

i take your point on this. he didn't have consistent season. on the positive side, he socred 15 goals last season (playing mostly as a right winger). he also looked at his best when playing up front with suarez. their combo was excellent whihc gives us option.

i agree that he's more of a squad player for future but but looking at lfc overall, we have a more urgent need for left sided players and a cb before sorting the RW.

If we did end up buying a high quality RW, i don't think we'd need to buy a back up stiker cos i think dirk is well useful as a RW/back up striker.

I also take the point and understand your scepticism about Kuyt, but i think its also to remember, Kuyt was given 4 months at the start of his Liverpool career (going from the Dutch league) playing up front. Then it was quickly deciding he wasnt cutting it and was shipped out wide and never allowed back in.... until Kenny came in and had some faith in him and he found a player on his wave length in Suarez.

And hes never looked back. Its also extremely unfair on him that all the credit he ever gets is his work rate, if you'll notice that with Suarez his impressive moves isnt running 20 miles but in the intricate 1 - 2's and the sublime through balls and other areas he didn't even know he had.

Although the pairing for up front is Carroll and Suarez i still think until Carroll proves himself our best front 2 is kuyt suarez. This is Liverpool f.c and until you prove your on fire you can watch from the sidelines.

(also a great front 3 if were playing that formation)

Suarez--Carroll---Kuyt
-----Raul----Stevie G
--------Lucas---------
