YOu make me laugh sometimes bud, but sometimes your posts make sense too...However in your previous post there is an element of both.
I would definately not sell Suarez as he is a legend and a fantastic football player, I would not go near Michu or Remy, firstly the fee Michu would command would be too big for a player of his calibre, because despite a good start to the season he has fallen away a bit in the 2nd half and I don't think he will be as good next season, wherever he plays. I don't think Remy is good enough and has done enough to prove himself yet.
I would go to newcastle and try and get Cabaye whom I rate much more than Allen. I would stay away from Ben Arfa due to his injury record and what I perceive as a bad attitude, or not enough motivation, whatever you call it.
I havent seen enough of the Wigan youngster to comment.
I think we will be overtaking Everton next season even if Fergie himself managed them and as far as West Brom and Fulham are concerned, you make me laugh.
Either way, it'll be interesting to have you back if you manage to keep your posts like the previous one.

Signing Remy would only be a stop gap to help whilst Suarez is out and is not guaranteed goals. Would rather play Shelvey up front because although he misses a lot of chances I cannot remember seeing anyone who gets in the positions he does so often. Eventually they all start going in.

I don't rate Loic Remy and he seems like a bit of a mercenary. I would like AC to be given another chance, especially if he puts in half the physical effort we saw against Man United. Love the way he wound up Retard Rio, as well as the obvious rhino-like charge on De Gea and that little scumbag Evra.
We need some physical presence on the pitch, given that our midfield can seem akin to an empty crisp packet (imagine Downing, Allen, Lucas and Coutinho together).
I like Shelvey overall but he's one of the slowest guys in the entire League - surely you need some pace to be a striker?

I don't think Shelvey is even that slow, it's his first touch which is so appaling to me, if he could just improve his first touch to anything near decent, I think he could be a very very good player.

Liverpool have always had pass and move. Tika taki or whatever you call it is just a load of 5 yard passes that you play around the centre of the pitch without getting anywhere. We tried it and with certain players it works well but as Barcelona have discovered a side that parks the bus at the highest level can frustrate it quite easily. The Stokes Evertons and West Broms of this world are not threatened by it. It makes it easier to park the bus.
Teams like Spurs and Man City struggle against it as they are not great when they don't have the ball. Their players like having the ball but not so clever at getting it back
Andy Carroll back? Yes most definitely. He is a handful and is way better than Borini. We need different tactics especially at the start of the season without Suarez. We need a physical presence to take the onus off other players. i agree with that

I do honestly believe we are part of a mini league which we will probably finish 3rd in behind Spurs and probably Everton, the other Clubs I think are in it do include West Brom and Fulham who like ourselves will never get top four but at the same time probably never get relegated as we stand, thats why I think its a little league each season. I am looking forward to seeing Callum McManaman today just to see how he performs against City, he's a really livewire usualy with a good eye for goal and tremendos apetite for the game, pity he's an Evertonian av heard.

Carra was originally an Everton fan too though, so there's hope

Caroll back? Don't be ridiculous. He costs away above and beyond what a Plan B player should on his wages alone. Cut losses and only be down £40mil instead of £60mil like we will be if we let him run his contract out.
He is probably being spotted around Liverpool etc as he is a Liverpool player, such he will train here during the summer unless/until a deal is agreed somewhere else.
And playing well? HE'S A THIRTY FIVE MILLION POUND STRIKER WHO HAS SCORED ABOUT 4 GOALS, one of which was a flukey toe poked free kick.
So he knocks the ball down or heads it on in a couple of games and suddenly he's playing well?
He's not even a handful for defenders, the lanky streak acts like a little girl and it's so easy to bring him down, or if the ball is at your feet you'll be past him quicker than you can say "Andy, there's a cold pint waiting for you over there."
His pony tail is more dangerous than his play style.

bit unfair on him. he is playing well. has battered a few top class centre halves in the last few weeks. and given the option of him battering a few players around or having borini
on the pitch I know which way I would go.
we are without suarez for 6 games if andy comes in determined
he could help us with that loss. borini sure as hell isn't
