If cissoko and downing are our final two signings, would you consider the transfer window a success? To be honest, not really. Wouldn't be bad business, but it's clear that we need a back up goalkeeper, and another winger and centre back would be ideal. We've only signed 2 players so far, those 2 you mentioned would make 4. There could be as many as 12 players on their way out!

that's fair enough, i think we need a CB but i know i'm probably going to be moaned at but how about Upson.....before you all jump at me here are my reasons:
1) we have quite a few up coming players i.e wilson and kelly so we need someone with experience ideally, not another up coming prospect.
2) upson is english (the owners and kenny will love that)
3) he is free and got another good 2 years in him, but don't offer him crazy wages but chance of playing for a big club
4) he would improve our defence straight away with strength in depth
5) premier league experience

I think if we sell cole,jova,konchesky,poulsen and aqua then we would have freed enough wages to take a chance with upson.

Sorry Nawaz but I've got to disagree with you on Upson. He's terrible.

He can just be a back up when there is a worst injury crisis. Just 5-10 matches in the league and in cup matches.

Maybe just 5-10 minutes in one match instead?

I think we need a regular starter in the Centre Back position. Some of us might say that we already have 4 Centre Back there but there are some problems with them too. Matthew Upson is not the right player to be brought in right now even if he comes in for free. We need someone who can play in the first team. I reckon some Centre Back in Real Madrid are not getting enough games. Based on our good relationship with Real Madrid ( we sold them Mickey Owen , Xabi Alonso and Alvaro Arbeloa ) , maybe we can loan or buy Raul Albiol. We were once linked with him before he joined Real Madrid. Ever since Jose Mourinho too over , he was relegated to the bench with the arrival of Mourinho's favourite , Ricardo Carvalho. So why not make a try for him? With Pepe Reina behind him in goal , he would have no problem communicating and adapting himself in Liverpool.
