Best defensive spine in the league.
Now when our other three players in the team include Gerrard, Suarez and Bellamy - who are all top quality, it shows we are very close to having a superb team.
A top class winger, plus a finisher and this team would be immense.
Add Gerrard and Suarez and that's the basis for a fantastic team. Would like to add a Central Midfielder (second volante type) a quality attacking wide player and a striker who can finish but also hold the ball up and brig others into play. At the moment we have players who *can* do those things in Adam, Henderson, Downing, Carroll, Kuyt etc.. but either not well enough, not well enough yet, or not well enough at the moment (i.e. they are either limited, out of form or young/ inexperienced).
I guess it depends on how soon we want the team to be a top performing one, how much we have to spend, and how the aforementioned players develop in what remains of the season.
the defensive side of the team is certainly NOT a worry though, although cover for left-back *may* be required, but that's not our main priority..
