Roy Hodgson targets Gilberto Silva, Brede Hangeland, Rafael van der Vaart and Danny Murphy with Liverpool spending spree Roy Hodgson will be handed an initial transfer budget of £15m What do people think of this speculation ? http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/fo...rt-Danny-Murphy-Liverpool-spending-spree.html Hangeland I'd be very interested in. As far as I know Silva and Murphy are both 32/33. Van Der Vaart would be good if the money was reasonable but hasn't exactly set the World on fire in the World cup.
Would only have VDV, We dont need Hangelaand and Murphy cmon maybe in a couple of years he can come back to coach the kids or something but not play
Would take VDV , think he is a good player and price wont be inflated as he has been dropped since robben was available for the dutch
Joe cole should be tried. Hed slot in well behind Torres. Nobody knows who Roy has in mind. Lets not forget he could give a lot of the reses like pacheo and Kelly more of a run. Whoever he signs he will instill a bit of confidence in anyway
I reckon Kelly would have seen more game time last season but for his injuries. Looks a great prospect.
Agree with you totally and i thought he had a super debut too and i hope he doesnt fall down the pecking order...
All I can see coming in is a couple of free transfers & the young lads getting a shot! We have'nt a pot to p**s in.
I'd take Hangeland in a second. Carra's legs not looking up to it as much and we have very little threat from corners since Sami left
THERE are unlikely to be any players heading out of Anfield until replacements have been lined up. A number of Liverpool players are being linked with possible transfer window moves but manager Roy Hodgson is also keen to see what he has at his disposal before sanctioning any departures. Fiorentina are reported to be ready to offer Liverpool in excess of £3.5million for left-back Emiliano Insua while newly promoted West Bromwich Albion are thought to be eyeing a loan deal for striker David Ngog. Including Milan Jovanovic, Liverpool had 13 players on World Cup duty in South Africa – more than any other Premier League club. With the majority of those players not expected to return to the club until after the pre-season training camp in Switzerland, Hodgson has a threadbare squad to work with and can ill afford to release anyone until he has brought new players in to the club. First, though, the former Fulham boss has pledged to give everyone a chance to prove their worth at the club regardless of their status under the previous managerial regime His first opportunity to do that will be against Saudi Arabian champions Al-Hilal in Liverpool’s opening pre-season game a week on Saturday at the Cashpoint-Arena in Altach, Austria – home of Austrian second division outfit SCR Altach. One player he may be able to call on soon is Jovanovic who is edging closer to securing his switch to Anfield from Belgian side Standard Liege. The Serbian international revealed last week that he is hopeful of linking up with his new teammates in Switzerland, and the club are quietly confident that will be the case. Jovanovic will join Liverpool on a free transfer. He can play as an out-and-out striker or in a wider attacking role and could fill the void left by Yossi Benayoun’s weekend departure to Chelsea. Liverpool head to Switzerland next Wednesday, July 14.
Ngog to west brom for a year would be a good deal. These are the kind of clubs we should be looking at loaning players too. Not bloody foreign or league 1 clubs.
I would have thought when he came in that he would have known who he wants to go and who he wants to keep. If he lets them do pre-season before deciding then will that leave enough time to do business?
