KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Who would you buy with 9m from babel

yes we need pace but we need someone who can pass and shoot too so that's Cisse out - if it's just pace we're after Dwain Chambers is available I think.

Personally, I think we should just be looking for a loan move to end of season - get someone decent in and offer a decent weekly wage to try and get the 4th spot.

Then, next season I truly believe that players like Pacheco and Amoo and Eccleston will be given a go.

(opens floodgates for rafa bashers/youth policy etc etc)

what about Kris Boyd - see Villa are thinking about it.

I know scottish football is crap (no offence to anyone) but a goal scorer is a goal scorer and not easy to find at the right money

he is supposed to be very lazy and even the rangers fans would tell you he isn't good enough for a top four side ... bearing that in mind i would have to say no to him

yes I know he's toilet but thought i'd throw it out there as a stop gap to the end of the season. nice to see you're back on board with a top 4 finish though !!!

hmmm the thing is i don't think it is good enough to finish top four - i expect us to challenge for the title not scrape into the champions league

Inject that 9mil to our debt and use youngsters to develop the team. All we think about is buy buy buy its nonsense. i just wander if the likes of Spearing would of improved if given chances like Lucas.

Inject the £9m into our interest payments you mean - not chance it will actually pay any debt off !!

I think Spearing is a great little player too (David Faircough's MOTM for reserves last night - scored a great goal) but would you do a straight swap for Lucas and Spearing then? Or how would you see the midfield with Spearing in there?

BBC website has Manchester City weighing up a £5m move for Middlesbrough winger Adam Johnson. Sunderland, Chelsea and Wolves are also interested.

Were we not looking at him ?

spearing hasnt been great in the glimpses of first team action ive seen so far. might need more time. pach definitely should be in the mix. havent seen amoo yet.

anyone who pays 9 mil for babel needs their head checked.

to answer your question toneloc - i would defo have had spearing in from the start of the season in place of lucas - much more potential but he needs games to settle in ... i wish he had been given the chances lucas has, then we could have had a real idea of his ability and if he is ready to challenge for the first team long term ...... if he is then we could afford to sell both lucas and mash and rotate the midfield between gerrard, spearing and aquaman ..... if not then we know to let him go

good point trepie.

talk on goal.com about a possible swap between ac and us for babel and huntelaar. report has no quotes or anythning tho so probably it's total tosh.

having said that, i think huntelaar would be a great signing.
