I agree, but hell it's hard to find someone to pair with Torres. Keane did horrible(when he got the chances), David Villa totally negated anything Torres could do when they played with Spain...so far I think Peter Crouch was the best pairing with Torres maybe Kuyt but he's had some rough moments too.
You are having a laugh, they want £20 million for the donkey. :) You have him for Utd. I would rather buy Henry or even Nistelrooy.Quote:

I would like Klinnsman for Liverpool and for the US National side! Although both are unlikely.
Why be defensive with Gerrard and Torres?!?!?! What a waste!
There partnership has worked well, Torres prefers it and Gerrard is difficult to mark running from all over. Add Kyut and a Benyamin, the defensive option looks a good attacking option.Quote:

Henry would be a great fit for Liverpool, Heskey might not be so bad (as a backup), but I think Cole might fit in well.
I see-saw back and forth on what should the club do with Rafa but right now I'm of the opinion he should be sacked and quickly. He's done nothing but tinker this season and last and if that's the way it's going to be then he needs to go, we've had NO consistency....granted if he is sacked we may lose Torres and maybe some others (which wouldn't have been a problem had we kept Keane), but he's got to go! If 1 player gets hurt Liverpool lines up with a totally different side and that shouldn't happen we should have 1 maybe 2 formations and players that fit roles for both formations...with Rafa if 1 regular starter is off then you might see a formation they have never played in ever before.
We should have a 442 played with LM, CM, CM, RM or LM, CAM, CDM, RM and that should basically be enough but with Rafa we may as well be playing free form
Can't believe i was tipping Liverpool and Arsenal for a 1-2 finish before the start of this season.
Carlton Cole is class. Probably most improved player in the Prem.Quote:

I have to disagree there mate, Bent has always been a great goalscorer he had the best strike rate of any of the strikers at Spurs and was bought by Spurs for 15 million when he was on fire for Charlton and prior to that Ipswich, Bent hasnt improved that much if you ask me.Quote:

I am worried big time for Liverpool in the middle range, at the moment, I feel like it's not another striker they need but a good middle recuperating and some chemistry, feed your attack and they will produce, once you have a good player like that, then you can think about a good complementary striker.
