twilite kid i agree alonso was one of our important if not most important and best player last season only time will tell if we will get a suitable replacement ive seen aqualini play a few times looks a good player, i would rather Aqualini than Martinez or Cattermole!! there the 3 were mostly getting linked with unless like FernandoMarkie said will rafa change formation and the style buy another striker and pull someone out of the bag who we havent been linked with! Rafa said he could buy one more player without selling most probabley not world class but in the region i would guess of 7m-10m so if alonso is sold i think there could be 2 players arriving!

Carragher has had two poor season in the last two should we get shut of him as well. People on here are kidding themselves if they think we are going to be able to replace Xabi, there are possibly only about three or four players around good enough to do what he does or maybe similar, Xavi and Inniesta at Barca, possibly Michael Carrick at United and defo Michael Essien at Chelsea and we will not be getting any of those. The reason we did beter in the league last season was the performances of Xabi Alonso not Gerrard and not Torres and if we have to rely on the Argentine David Batty alongside him as well as Lucas then we seriously have problems.

Carrick is such a legend he can't get into the England team so to name him as a comparison to Xabi you've got to be kidding! Xabi, although is probably the best passer of the ball is a defensive midfielder....people are always complaing that we are too defensive and need to break games open so based on that I beleive he can be replaced. If he stays it's a bonus for us and if he leaves then just have to accept that fact, move forward and keep playing the style of football we played towards the end of last season. Will still make us top shout for the title.

Carraghers had 2 bad seasons? U joking me hes the heart of our defence plays his heart out everygame! I agree with redlaz people complain were too defensive if alonso does go will rafa change formation? 4 at back diamond midfield ? Masch at defensive midfielder 2 wingers and gerrard behind 2 strikers??

this has all the hallmarks of a Gerrard-esque U-turn.

Perhaps the fans should make a statement similar to that fateful day in 2005....
