Huntelaar and Llorente are pipe dreams which dont fit into the system, Unless Rodgers was going to make a triangle upfront? I just cant see them happening.

If Sterling doesnt sign in the next 2 weeks, He's off. FSG will not want to him leaving for a minimal amount or even on a free. Sterling wants 50k we are offering 30k but Chelsea are ready to offer 60k. He's off! £10 million for a kid with no end product aint too bad in fairness.

The likes of Sturridge and Walcott fit this description. The likes of Llorente and Huntelaar do not.

Yeah there's merit in the flexible approach CarheeX, but there's the danger of having 3 Jack's of all trades and master of none with that approach, and isn't that where we are at the moment? I'm inclined towards the out and out striker/finisher/poacher, whatever you wish to call him to put away a lot more of those wasted chances.

You want an out and out striker but I think BR prefers interchangeable forwards. Dzagoev would fit I think.

I think Suarez would be better with a partner and we'd certainly score more goals with eg Huntelaar and Suarez up front however I think Rodgers it too stubborn to change system to a 4-4-2. a team of

Reina
Johnson-Skrtel-Agger-Enrique
Sterling-Gerrard-Lucas-Assaidi
Suarez-Huntelaar

has a lot more goals in it and our bench suddenly looks very strong (maybe 1 more striker) Coates, Carra, Shelvey, Suso, Allen, Henderson, Borini as back up.
