KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Roy wants 4 new players in january

It wouldnt suprise me if we end up with 2 more defensive midfielders, Super Bobby Zamora and Damien Duff

I think Poulsen was a last-minute-save, because our beloved Argentinian and his little Mrs wanted to leave!

On the other hand; You can blame Roy 100% for Meireles.

But that´s another story, right?

A one legged Zamora then?

Or perhaps a joint venture with Damien Duff? (one leg x 2 players = 2 legs and 1 player)

I think hodgson has done fair to middling on transfers - of course poulson is utter rubbish, my problem with hodgson is nothing to do with the transfer market and he did well to get cole to come here. My problem with hodgson is that he plays them in the wrong position, when not only does he not need to, the consequence have been catastrophic. At the moment if you had a team with pele maradona etc at their peak they would still be no good because hodgson wants us play to his IKEA system that has worked in malmo.
That alone wouldnt turn me against him. The 'final' straw and I am sure there will be more final final straws was that he is in denial about the problems in the sense he is trying to deflect blame away from himself and put it on players or anyone. No succesful manager does that. I wouldnt mind if he targeted certain names for our poor performances (carragher, johnson for example, the rest arguablely play bad as they are in the wrong postion ie managers fault) and dropped them but my feeling is that he doesnt have the balls to drop 'big' names Time will tell. Dropping a player is ten times better than collectively blaming all 11 as he did with northampton. Thats why i am against roy Bad tactics and outrageous buckpassing and the denial that liverpool needs different tactics to the IKEA system

I don't care what he says or needs, we need some soldiers on the pitch and not a bunch of spoilt brats.

The 4 players that we need are

1)DM to replace Lucas and Poulsen- Banega or Martinez
2)CB to replace Carra
3)Second striker to play with Torres
4)Left winger/midfielder - Turan

And I forget A NEW MANAGER TO REPLACE ROY

I would like to add:

5) Right winger/midfielder - Pablo Hernandez

the thing is we have enough [oops] at our disposal as it is right now.

if he does make 4 signings they have to be players that you would expect to be instantly slotted into the starting 11.

i just can't see us spending £40m plus mid season, it doesnt tend to happen, usually in the window you sign players that are out of favour too.

in dreamland i would love any of these players
ST - Dzeko / Forlan
CF/AMC - Aguero / Hamsik
WING - Mata / Turan or Sanchez
DM - Banega / Defour
CB - Hangeland / Shawcross

Two super signings (DM, WG/AMF) for our XI plus three good and versatile backups (LB/RB, DM/CM, WG/ST) would be great.

Id like to make Pablo number 1. I really think hes got everything, top player.
