We will have a boss midfield if we don't sell any of Raul or Aqua. Have strength when needed (Lucas+Hendo+Adam+Stevie) and technique and flair (Aqua+Meireles). And this is without even considering wingers. I think we will be going 3-5-2 next season and destroy everyone.

Another CM we simply did not need. It's a testament to Dalglish's effect and popularity that the 2 transfers this window have been largely palatable to the fans. Had Hodgson signed them we'd be livid.

Thank christ for that, I've stayed out of the transfer thread for him as it was just ridiculous. Welcome to Liverpool Charlie Adam, I'm pretty optimistic about this one.

I'm not even sure who I'd prefer to go, Raul or Aquilani. Maybe both of them will.

I would very much prefer both of them to stay

I would have both in my preferred first choice eleven to start the season. Two seasoned and cultured Portugese and Italian internationals. Let's keep them both please.

I'll put your concerns forward to Kenny while the rest of us celebrate... In an age where athletes are so often favoured over stylish footballers, he is a pleasure to watch.

Given that a lot of people seem to think either Meireles or Aquilani will be making way am I alone in thinking I'd rather keep Aquilani?

I would too. Certainly over Meireles and Adam.

Hopefully Lucas gets less playing time now. He did well last year, but he was simply the best of a very bad bunch most of the time.

He still goes missing on more than the odd occasion and still gives away stupid fouls.

Plus he slows the play down considerably.

Finally. :)


If they really get two players of us, I'd guess at a defender and a midfielder, which is what they need - defenders especially.

If we manage to either give them Konchesky or Poulsen, the deal would be even better.

Ha ha come off it. Henderson can play wide right, Gerrard is 31 and often injured, Poulsen shite and soon hopefully to be on his way, then we have Lucas as our main DM, Spearing in reserve, Raul who could be off and Aquilani whose future remains in doubt.

People looking for any reason to moan. But the bad times are behind us.

Am I the only one who is a bit gutted.  I just don't see what all the fuss is about.  He'll be better than Spearing on the bench, but for me Gerrard, Lucas, Meireles and Aquilani are all better than Adam. :(
Rossiter absolutely bossed it tonight. Really believe he'll end up playing more games this season than Lucas.

This is it mate. Gerrard is such a massive goal threat from that kind of range that it's a no brainer to keep him away from taking them and start smashing them in from the edge of the area.

On a serious note, I can't find a video of it, but his two passes - first to DJ Campbell and second to Vaughan (that eventually led to their penalty) at Anfield were exquisite. More of the same Charlie boy.

I actually think in one sense aquilani and raul are kenny players. Ie good movement, make runs forward, quick incisive passing etc. But on the other hand both players cannot complete 90 mins with way kenny plays high tempo pressing. I wouldnt be suprised if both went.
