KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum If you were the new LFC Manager.....

As we all hold our nerves when names fly around,we surely don't know whats coming,lets ease the tension and crack up into possible and realistic good signings..if you were new LFC boss which five players would you sign and why?????

If i were the new boss:
[1]Keisuke Honda from CSK Moscow: this will boost shirt sales in Asia where LFC surely have huge fan base,at age of 25 the guy is a hit,explosive,quick,tricky and skillful,a monster in dead balls something that we don't have,its about time we get something like that,he also fit in the budget,he might cost 8-11 Mill.Watch him at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nhHoXRMGN6A and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uM9IAy9frNU

[2]Hatem Ben Arfa form Newcastle: he is tricky,very skillful,can shoot from distance,great passer,brilliant game changing individual abilities,with a little bad boy image,he will come to his peak at LFC,he also might come cheap since he was not much popular with Toons with a lot of bench warming time,he might cost 8-11 Mill.Watch him at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jzbLwSNHM-U and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4zF2GJe_pco

[3]Matías Suárez from Anderlecht: At age of 24 he is one of the most promising stars in Belgian league,he is more of Ronaldo type,he can cut through the wings,score brilliant goals,elected Belgian player of the season,the kid is a wizard with a ball on his leg,he can pass,cut through defenders and finish.He also might come cheap because he is not a huge image in Europe,he might cost 10-12 Mill,watch him at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tggy630-xEk

[4]Luuk de Jong from FC Twente: At the age of 21 he is one of the most consistent and explosive strikers in Europe,a natural goal scorer,he not come cheap but he is cheaper than Llorente and other big names,he might consider LFC for is the only big club where he might get regular playing time,he is a new RVP,with more than 30 goal attempts hitting uprights and cross-bar this is the guy to bend them in,he might cost around 12-15 Mill.Watch him at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0qXuXivFNA

[5]Adam Johnson:With limited chances at City,the 24 years old Englishman can be a hit at LFC,explosive pace,able to find shooting space,quick feet to terrorise defenders,a young and evolving talent,a little more first team can unlock his talent and make him a superstar.Also he might come cheap since he is surplus at Man City though an English label can push his price up,he might cost around 8-10 Mill.Watch him at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kFvca4UlSOI and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0dWsw5EjHO4&feature


For any Manager who opt to bring in players,he must ship out some of the lads,this might be a tough call but its a natural order,one must go out for the other to get in,here is the list of players who should be honored for their services but given an opportunity to flourish elsewhere

[1]Craig Bellamy
[2]Dirk Kuyt
[3]Maxi Rodriguez
[4]Joe Cole
[5]Fabio Aurelio
[6]Brad Jones
[7]Charlie Adam
[8]Jamie Carragher (Retire to Youth Coaching at LFC)
[9]Spearing(Loan Out)
[10]Jonjo Shevley(Loan Out)

EPL Team 2012-2013

Goal keepers
Jose Pepe Reina(Third Captain)
Alexander Doni
Peter Gulasci
NB: Since we are in Europa League,F.A Cup,Carling Cup and EPL we must have keepers rotation,Reina blunders a lot when he feels he can play all games no matter what!,give young Peter Gulasci the whole Carling campaign,Pepe Reina EPL and F.A Cup and Alexander Doni Europa League

Defenders
Martin Skrtel(Vice Captain)
Sebastian Coates
Daniel Agger
Jose Enrique
Glen Johnson
John Flanagan
Jack Robins
Martin Kelly

Luuk de Jong**
Andy Carroll

* Back from Loan
** New Signing

Great thread. The chances of acquiring all of these players though is unlikely, pending on what manager comes in. However if that was the team for going into next season then I would be more than happy

Good thread but starting to get a bit fed up with these threads lol, but when I joined the forum years ago did the same thing so.........

You're not, so get back to work

The squad its more than possible to acquire,considering LFC financial muscles,and all targets are young an up coming they all might consider stepping up their game to a massive club like LFC,keeping in mind they all play for under achieving,under paying and undermined leagues,also LFC have a long shot for all these new guys because the market just went crazy and nobody is looking at these guys,every big club wants complete,matured and proven players like Wesley Sneijder,Carlos Tevez,Yaya Toure,Edin Dzeko,Edinson Cavanni,Fernando Llorente,Shinji Kagawa,Luca Modric,Gareth Bale,Robert Lewandowski,Zlatan Ibrahimovic,Thiago Silva,Dani Alves,Edin Hazard,Falcao...those are names flying around,LFC can take an advantage of that to pin point unique talents and snatch them with less competition considering young players will expect more play time at LFC than elsewhere!!!...IF we have a manager to put that in motion

Good thread, although I would keep Carra and Bellers in the squad for one more season, especially if we are going to buy so many young talented yet inexperienced players. You can't underestimate people like Carra in the dressing room.
The new boss whoever he will be will have a lot of work on his hands to re-shape this squad and give it a direction. FSG need to spend big for one more window and with the right signings we could finish 4th. We all wait in suspense!!!

That's nice one lad,i couldn't agree more with you on the power of old guards in dressing room,they know the club and can feed that old LFC hive to the youngsters,keeping Jamie might be a good idea,but his playing time should be limited and LFC should start preparing him for a higher role in coaching staff,though keeping Craig Ballamy might be a wrong move,since he will be an extra cost with less playing time,maybe we might consider bring back Michael Owen,he is free,still have the natural touch and an LFC legend,youngsters can use his experience and it will an honor to retire with dignity and win back the hearts of LFC fans..also he will take "a pay per time played" which will be cheap

Not Owen he'll probably tell them to be a backstabbing mercenary, and way past his day, can't run the length of the pitch without dislocating his hip or something
