While I have confidence in Kenny, Commoli et al that they have this obvious deficiency in mind (winger needed as well), I am getting slightly worried that it's getting on a bit in the transfer market.

The transfer market's getting on a bit?


This insane frequency of transfers in the league has resulted in teams signing:

Arsenal - 1
Aston Villa - 0
Blackburn - 1
Bolton - 0
Chelsea - 0
Everton - 0
Fulham - 1
Liverpool - 2 (including Adam)
Mancs - 3
Man City - 3
Newcastle - 4
Norwich - 2
QPR - 0
Stoke - 0
Sunderland - 5
Swansea - 1
Tottenham - 1
WBA - 1
Wigan - 0
Wolves - 0


It's obvious from those numbers the entire league is busy making transfers and we're getting stuck behind on one deal! ::)

Typical, I’ve been browsing the forum all summer with very little happening, I disappear off to a 2 hour meeting and we sign Adam.

I might schedule a few more meetings for the rest of the week and see what else happens.

Good news, Kenny back off holiday and getting busy now!!

Adam will be a good signing we just need rid of the deadwood out of midfield/suqad in general now, which i've no doubt we're working on. Even Poulsen, Jova, Degen, Cole, Konchesky would be a good clearout for one summer and allow us to pay some other players wages!

Konch going the other way doesn't make sense, unless we are giving him a massive parting payout. Blackpool would no doubt pay around a quarter of his current wages at the most.

Hopefully he cares more about football than the difference between £2million and 500 grand.

I think our signings so far and Kenny talking about how Carroll likes to be fed, indicates that our "width" will come from out central midfielders. I think we will play 433 with Carroll, Suarez and Kuyt upfront. And Adam, Gerrard and Lucas in midfield. I think the idea is for Adam and Gerrard to drift a bit wide and cross early from deep. Henderson is also very good at crossing from deep so he'll be groomed to take Gerrards place I imagine. I hope we keep the high tempo short passing game we've seen under Dalglish but to be totally honest I can't see how that is possible without limiting Carrolls effectiveness. If this is the idea of how to get the best out of Carroll then I hope it works. Doubt it'll be nice to watch though.

Finally.

Great player. We've loads of midfielders now, hopefully this doesn't mean Aquilani gets shipped, which he'll most likely be but I want him to stay and compete with primary Adam and Lucas for the defensive spots.

Let's go for a winger now, eh?

Yay! Now, how quick can we

a) get to 200 pages

b) derail this thread onto the subject of Alberto

Welcome to LFC Charlie.



As a side note, I posted in the Downing thread that it 8will be interesting to see what happens now that everyone's 'back at work'. Since DC and Kenny got back it seems to be all systems go. Things are definitely getting exciting.






When did.they get back?
