I think he is one of those experienced players that because of a clubs success, and intent to keep strong for a long time, has been lost behind the easier option of blooding some younger players over playing him. When he has played, he been great to decent, mainly because of his lack of game-time leading to inconsistency. I don't expect that he is definitely going to be brilliant, because in his latter days at City, his weight gain and slow reactions proved to be a small problem, but that is not to say with a good bit of work on his part, he could make just as much influence on the team as Carragher did in January.

Ayre is right. Dare I say that on here!
Aspas is a player off of a great season.
Toure has been great in the PL and could reclaim that form.
Alberto did great at Barca B, even if they chose to not buy-him.
Mignolet was Player of the Season at Sunderland last year.
They are great signings, or potentially great signings...

Good points. All of them but Toure were one of the best players in their sides, if not the best. They're used to being relied upon and used to responsibility. I think that's a good thing.

Exactly, and what Rodgers has repeated said in his press conferences, is finding people with the right mentality. Mignolet pushed hard to displace Gordon at Sunderland, and is happy to come in and fight against Reina for the Number 1 spot. Aspas, like Benteke, all but single-handedly kept his team in the division. He has been repeatedly questioned for his contribution, and delivered 2 seasons running, the latter in La Liga with more eyes on him. Add to that Alberto making a name for himself, amongst young players with huge names and egos at Barca... That is mental strength and there is talent in all three. Just a case of hoping they all suit the style and pedigree built in the club.

Exactly I asked my mate the city fan about toure
He said he never let them down at city but he was past his best when at city. His best days were at arsenal Oh hooray, hooray,hooray, where’s my cane and my toupee? I'm forgetful where I lay them, as a rule! But those are incidental points, since my old arthritic joints, Have just been signed to play for Liverpool! If those fans be judge and jury, as sure as my name is Toure, They better not be saying too bloody much! Or if they to mockingly portray, mine old creaking vertebrae, I bash ‘em bloody scousers with my crutch!

Well he's definitely no Gary Mac,but we could benefit from his experience and leadership at the back until he burns out in October.
