You said: “i bring up maxi because he will be competing with Aquilani for a place on one of the wing(s)”. He won’t
Aquilani has spent most of his career playing in CM so saying he can’t play there again just raises questions as to how much you know about the player – and based on everything you’ve said that’s clearly not a great deal
And Maxi is a winger – one that can play on either flank. He has played a more central attacking role but throughout his time at liverpoool he’s been on the flanks
How can it not be healthy having good players competing against each other for a place in the first 11? That’s exactly what we need and what we’ve lacked for the last 5-6 years
And if we manage to offload the likes of Poulsen, Insua, N’Gog and Jones we can strengthen our defence too
Presuming the Jose Enrique rumour is true, that only leads a centre back to go – although it will have to be someone like Dann or Cahill as Srtel and Kryarkis make waay too many clumsy mistakes
hopefully this debate is all moo't because alberto average aquilani won be at lfc next season. do you really believe he will ever get a place in CM ahead of lucas, adam, spearing, gerrard, meireles and shelvey? if you do you're completely deluded.
i can not believe you think having so many midfielders is a good idea specially as they are very similar. and again what has selling insua or jones gotta do with aquilani? selling them doesn't make aquilani any better.
and who have aquilani CM partners been? and what league was he playing in? im not saying he cant handle the PL but it is a lot quicker than serie A. to my knowledge in the main he has had 2 very defensive CM partners in de rossi and melo we don't have a player as defensive or combative as those 2. the only time playing him would be a good idea is against swansea at home and andy carroll needs a rest then he can play behind suarez other than that i don't see any real use for him.
