The report by Spanish radio station Cadena Ser claims that Liverpool is concerned at the lack of goals by Andy Carroll, Dirk Kuyt among others so far, this season and are preparing big bids to land the top-class striking duo in the January transfer window in order to push for a tilt at the title.
Normally, I wouldn't mention these kind of rumours but it is so sensational that I felt I had to cover it.
David Villa is very much playing second-fiddle to Lionel Messi at the Nou Camp, scoring 21 goals in 39 starts in a mostly left-wing position, what an addition he would be to Kenny and the team, his transfer fee is likely to be near the £30 million mark though.
Real Madrid's Gonzalo seems to be an option also as he is frozen out by Karin Benzema and José Mourinho, the Argentine has scored 71 goals in 132 appearances for Real, he won't come too cheap either.It would be great to get one or both of these high-quality forwards on the books at Liverpool, it would instantly move us up another level in the Premier League as, at the moment, Luis Suarez seems to be doing it all on his own.
Really hope these rumours are true!

ReplyDeleteVilla is playing in a position which totally suits him, on the left hand side of a front 3, not exactly left wing
ReplyDelete21 goals in 39 games is pretty prolific given that he doesn't take pens or many free kicks these days
He would be amazing for us of course but age / cost just wouldn't fit our model
Higuain is decent, but not in the same class as someone like Aguero, with an identical goals per game ratio as Villa if your stats are accurate, but our forwards seem to need to be able to create their own chances, like Torres / Suarez etc
We don't make things easy for our strikers

ReplyDeleteI hope J henry is reading the net as there are many better manager\strategist than our coaches.
ReplyDeleteTHE BEST ATTACKING LINE UP FOR LIVERPOOL ACCORDING TO ME IS SUAREZ AND BELLAMY WING DOWNING AND KUYT HOPE THING WILL MOVE ON WELL ANDY CARROL IS NOT COPING UP EASILY WITH LIVERPOOL TYPE OF FOOTBALL HE SHOULD BE ON BENCH IN STEAD OF BELLAMY..
ReplyDeleteI'd love to see villa at Liverpool it don't matter about age. I feel as though he'll do better at Liverpool....and for the fun he'll have his pal pepe reina on his team
ReplyDeletevilla alongside Suarez and Bellamy would just be awesome.Villa on the left Suarez in mid and Bellamy right...Unbeatable!!!!!
