KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Siggy says Swansea deal is off. He would love to play 4 reds

spearing not shelvey

any player at £7m who will sell for £15m+ and can chip in with goals from midfield is needed. what was our biggest problem last year? converting chances? this lad can do that and much more. one of the stand out players of the prem last campaign for me. brilliant ever since he arrived in january.

you don't know what style the manager is going to play next year. but id take a guess and say its 4-2-3-1. he's perfect to sit behind the striker. personally i would play him there and have gerrard at CM playmaking from deep. suarez or bellamy cutting in from the left hand side with carroll spear heading the attack.

This This This This and this again.

We need a farrrrrrrrr better creative presence. He doesn't improve us enough. We have a limited budget. We need to spend it to improve the first 11.

Like who though? I Like the fella, but I wouild like the best we can get, seems pretty decent for the price from my knowledge, which is a win win. Personally would rether go for Michu myself.

This, young too

I'd buy him for £7m and get rid of Adam for as much as possible. People say he can't improve us, squad player etc. but that alone would be an improvement for me.

i think he is much better than some of the players we got so why not

on this forum we even argue about players that are not even ours

yep its common here

Spot on. Funny how people remembered how we have so much midfield depth until we sold Meireles, and loaned Cole and Aquilani. It didn't matter so much because we were supposedly going to play 4-4-2, but now we're likely to revert to playing 3 CMs every match and are back in Europe, so we definitely need 6 or 7 in total (outside the under 21 players). But because we see a young foreign player for 7m we're shy, even though last season everyone was clamouring for cheap foreigners? Hello? He's better and younger than Adam, Spearing, and Cole all day - heck, if we let Cole go on a free the savings in wages alone will pay for his transfer fee in under 2 seasons.

He also understands this manager's system, has EPL experience, and is a goal-scoring midfielder with this manager in this system. Can't see any reason to not be interested in signing him.
