ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC"

Pleased with that. It's a pity he's not coming to us, but that's the type of sub-top class striker I'd hoped Liverpool would get to replace Suarez.

he's better than what i was hoping tbh. not sure if he'll fit into the kick and chase philosophy though.
 
As long as Rodgers keeps spunking money on positions they don't need, I am not too worried. I really don't understand how they don't see the glaring hole in their central midfield, although maybe that's on account of their delusions about Captain Fantastic, Hendo who's strength is running around the pitch, and Lucas "the most underrated player in the whole world" Leiva.
 
Glenn Hoddle: "Liverpool's a big club and there's no one player bigger than any football club in the world. Liverpool have proved that over the years."

Really Glenn? How?

He's very decent (or at least he is based on his second half of last season form...prior to stinking the place out early in the season), but Liverpool just signed Lambert who'll give them that type of physical/aerial presence to go alongside Sturridge. He's a good finisher, but I dont see him creating an awful lot for himself and others.

I'd be delighted if they replaced 'SAS' with Sturridge and Lambert/Bony. The latter are much more of a manageable proposition.

Not sure I'm happy with it tbh.

In a decent side he'll score plenty of goals and he'd give them a physical presence up top

took his time to bed in a new league, but he is a fantastic player and always gets chances. 2 in 3 in the WC as well. he scores against the big guns, something suarez doesn't do.

lambert will only be a backup anyway.

Hmm. It depends what your objective is. For us he'd have been a great purchase. They, however, have other fish to fry. Sanchez would have been a decent replacement as he finds room and creates for himself, but even he is a step down from the rat. Bony, Lambert and Sturridge wont get the job done for them.

He's defo a step down from the rat, but I was hoping he was going to spunk the cash on the unproven Markovic and Lovren, leaving the only 2 out and out front men as Sturridge and Lambert. Adding a quality PL striker like Bony would give them another strong option.

They were never going to leave it at Big Lambo though. Sanchez I'd have been pissed off with. He really is class, so i'm glad he snubbed them. They'll also spend on that defence besides Lovren too. But that's not a bad thing either: a) more players to bed in; b ) a better defence means they'll be playing out more from the back and the speed at which they play will be curtailed a bit.

Liverpool are about to go through a massive change from last season. I'm convinced they'll struggle to get a CL place.

That's without doubt and the longer they persevere with lead legs in the centre of the park, then the longer and harder the transition will take. As they have to adapt their play to cover his obvious deficiencies

Liver pools biggest problem IMO is cover from the midfield for defence and full backs. There CB's are fine esp if they get lovren. I'm happy to see that they haven't got any decent defensive midfielders or full backs. No matter how good the CB's are if the midfield is getting sliced open at will like we were with osman and nev holding you will concede goals if Brenda thinks gerrrd and henderpson is going to cover the defence that he is a bigger fool than I thought he was

they were never going to attract players of too much more quality than what we can - not when you compare the managers. they will just pay more money and more wages, they still haven't bought a player that we would label "too good for us".

they should have bigger fish to fry with CL on offer, but they don't have a manager who sees it that way.
