Id much rather stick with the Torres Gerrard combo upfront & strenghten behind them. For the money wed have to pay for him we could get 2 2o mill players or 3 12+ mill players that would improve the team much more in my eyes
I see what your saying nando but were lacking a world class striker, Gerrard after all is a midfielder but it depends if Rafa will change to 4-4-2 rather than the 4-5-1 he likes to play, the strikers we have are:
1. Torres
2. Ngog
3. Nemeth
4. Voronin
5. Pacheco
Out of the above the only 15+ a season striker is Torres and the rest are either reserve players or squad players, if Torres gets injured I honestly can't see us getting many goals from Voronin or Ngog although I'd love to see Pacheco/Nemeth given a chance in the first team.
If Torres was injured I would expect Kuyt to be given a role as Striker and use Benayoun to fill his role out wide?
Would probably be a better option that Ngog or Voronin.
