one's to old and the other 2 are as effective as my gran at CB

great plan

Exactly ! our Defence is a total liability we don't have ONE great CB ,We don't have a LB ,our RB is a young prospect and our Defensive Midfield is avarage at best. I don't understand how we can throw 30+ on a striker and not even think on Defence? Strange decision in my opinion.

If Carroll signs -

PROS:
English - homegrown rule
Great in the Air
Great start to season - 11 goals in 18 prem games
Cracking shot on him
Physical presence up front (torres pushed around a lot imo)
Bags of potential - long term investment

CONS
Hefty price tag (were not in massive debt anymore tho - splash out)
Off the field issues (Hopefully Kenny will curb that)
6 months in Premiership (Wait and someone else will get him e.g. Rooney, Adam Johnson, Rio, Bale)

IF he comes I will be more than made up, if we were ever gonna lose torres then suarez AND carroll would have been a class alternative!!!

chelsea wont wanna change ther tactics from now to sunday to fit torres in and with this all happening so fast trres' head mite not be 100% so chelsea wil probly leave him out for a few games and give him sub apperances first

It said on talksh!t before that we will get Carrol and the deal to take torres away is likely to include Anelka.

That's mad

Ok so the scenario when we sign carroll and young, greenlighting the torres deal, then Chelsea pull out at the last minute…..

Reina

Johnson Carra Agger Aurelio

Lucas

Young Gerrard Suarez

Torres Carroll

Torres may have burnt his bridges, and be considered a disgrace for putting on a red shirt again, but look at that front 5…. Defenders wouldn’t know what to do!!

No Mereiles?

Yeah, just heard that. I can't see that we'd go for both. Anelka will do just fine for me.

Lukaku and Hazard are kids, far from being able to walk into a Liverpool team in urgent need of some class and experience that can immediately do a job. In the summer they'd be great signings, with a good preseason and a few months to come to grips with English football but not now.

Never played the game you patronising . Owen, Fowler and Gerrard were all kids when they WALKED into the Liverpool team. Its about ability if you think Lukaku and Hazard wouldnt improve our team now over the likes of Ngog, maxi or Kuyt your an idiot. Just because some people follow the game outside of the Prem and know far more about the game then you, doesnt mean you should labell them as fantasists. Despite any transitional period they would need they are far better players then what we have.

The fact you dont think buying players like Lukaku and Hazard would be a good idea doesnt say much about you in a positive light to be honest.

Ha, clearly your a huge follower of Belgian and French footy then

Just so you know Mr Sensitive, I watch a hell of alot more La Liga and Champions League then I do Prem footy, we're not all uncultured, kick and run neanderthals this side of the channel!

My post doesnt say they'd be bad signing btw, I said that in this Jan window if we sell our top striker it would not be the right time to sign them as we'd need and expect them to deliver the world as soon as they arrived which would be hugely unfair and potentially career damaging. We'd need a stop gap for the next 6 months, someone with experience who could do a job before we put a £50m winfall to good use in the summer, which since it would be counted as income and could be arranged to be paid on July 1st would not effect us under the new financial restrictions

Not a huge follower but doesnt mean i havent seen enough of them to know how good they are. I aint sensitive (patronising again) but who are you to label people and take the :censored:

just because you dont agree with them? Huge weight? Torres has scored 9 goals this season ad been :censored:

for most of the season. I hardly think theyll loose much sleep over replacing him. Plus Liverpool fans arent stupid we would give them time we now this is a rebuildig period now. Lukaku will be as good if not better then Torres when he hits his peak. Hes built like a tank so wouldnt be bullied off the ball ad would actualy link up better with Suarez and Hazard is pure class.

Glad you cleared the Fair play rules up for me though now i couldnt give a :censored:

if Torres goes
