some of you don't even watch Liverpool games.

We need a CB, Hyppia is slow and on the decline. We need a LB, Traore is not Liverpool material.


We need a RW. Nunez stinks and Garcia is not a winger. Smicer is out in the summer.

We need another CM for when Gerrard leaves.

And most of all we need a new Goalie. Kirkland and Dudek are both diabolical.

I've been saying it a while, Hyypia needs shipping out, at his age, experience usually gives you the postioning that makes up for the pace you've lost, but it doesn't seemed to of happened in his case.

And who are you going to replace him with given the clubs limited resources?

We need someone at centre back who could be a captain, someone who would lead the defence.

Yeah, we should buy Jamie Carragher as he seems to be really good at that. If we are going to buy another central defender, one of the first things we should look for is someone with a bit of pace in order to offset the lack of pace in the rest of the defense.

it is indeed me that is using the sig over at RAWK.;)

as for the right-back comment, finnan has been good but i still think there's room for improvement. josemi was looking promising but suddenly made loads of defensive mistakes. better cover is needed imo. the left back position will be riise's once again once kewell is fit so no need for a player there, unless we want some good defensive cover.

you might argue that hyypia is on the decline, but i think thats just a stereotype for the older players. you can't really ship out hyypia to make way for pace as we would then lose the height advantage. we have short term cover in the form of pellegrino, but he's pretty slow too. its either we replace hypia with someone who is both tall and fast, or we don't replace him at all. again, the only answer to our problem imo is ledley king. if only spurs would sell him cheap.:(

i've read someone comment that we would need a new CM when gerrard leaves and that kikland and dudek are "diabolical". completely wrong in my opinion. gerrard hasn't really said that he's leaving. wait untill summer i say.

after that manyoo howler, dudek has been playig pretty well at the moment. kirkland was looking good, aside from set peices, then he got injured again. we also have carson, who looks pretty good too. all the lad needs is experience.

i'm just wondering, with all the talk of owen being unhappy at real, is there any chance we'd take him back? i hear we've got a first option on him but i really don't see him coming back unless baros leaves. cisse is too expensive to release after a season, and moro is well...moro.

I thought that it was a fair question. You're all for axing Sami, but I honestly cannot see who is going to replace him.

As for the "We need someone at centre back who could be a captain, someone who would lead the defence." comment, well I just found that a little blind given the fact that we've got Carra.

I don't agree about Kirkland looking good prior to the injury, but do agree with you about Dudek. Was very good against Birmingham in particular.

Owen is, by his own account perfectly happy at Madrid so I don't see him back at the club any time soon regardless. If it did ever come down to it though, from a purely football perspective, and discounting personal feelings towards the Welsh dwarf, I'd be quite happy to see Owen replace Baros.
When Baros starts banging in 20+ goals a season, and developes some sort of awareness of what's going on around him when he's on the ball then I'll be convinced that he's in the same class as Owen.

Ive read kirkland is the WORST keeper in the premier league when it comes to shots saved/shots on target ratio. 50% of shots on target have been hitting the back of the net. Disgraceful.

Speculation on Owen coming back to Liverpool? Forget it.

He never looked good this season. Plus if you've got a keeper that sucks on set-pieces, well, i guess you're screwed, because 50% of goals (i'm just putting up a number, but i'm pretty sure it's something close to that) come from set-pieces nowadays.

well first of all yes we need a new cb, secondly a RW is needed, but Gerrard won't leave and LB is for Riise as Kewell is back to play in his favoured LM position. And Benitez has it all planned out that in no time Carson will be our No. 1 keeper.

Youth Team
agreed we can't guarantee cisse a first team spot yet. Although we would favor baros since he has been pretty spectacular this season. yes and morientes will always be our best striker atm so he will always start unless tactical change "injury" or rest.
What lineup do yous reckon we will use against Leverkussan.
How bout.... Dudek
Finann Hyypia Carragher Riise
Nunez Hamman Smicer
Garcia
Baros Kewell

Moro is a bit too slow for me;Cisse is faster;i prefer faster players.

my lineup:

Dudek
Finnan Carra Hyypia Traore
Nunez(Luis Garcia) Luis Garcia(Biscan) Hamann Risie
Kewell
Baros
 
wonder what cisse has been up to since hes been out, probably just standin outside shoppin centres
