The former Liverpool striker, under Gerrard Houllier, is out of favour and soon out of a contract at Chelsea.
Since the arrival of Villas Boas and the purchase of fallen-Red, Fernando Torres, Anelka has found himself way down the pecking order, behind young Daniel Sturridge who is beginning to find the net quite frequently.
It might be a good bit of business if Liverpool did get him in January as we are very short on goals scored so far this Season.
The possibility of trying Dirk Kuyt in central midfield might seem a bit of a strange idea, seeing as how he is usually deployed wide on the right or upfront with Suarez.
It is Kuyt's defensive qualities that stand out, he never gives an opponent a second, he hassles and harries players all around the pitch and might just be worth a punt for the Fulham game on Monday night.
I fully expect either Jay Spearing or Jordan Henderson to replace Lucas in midfield for now.
Expect movement by Liverpool in the January window to improve the team and push on for the Champion's League spot this season.
I wish we could re sign Anelka. Though only as a stop gap, he's still fast and deadly and has a wealth of experience from playing for several Premier league clubs including Liverpool, French league, Spanish and Turkish leagues. He always stated he enjoyed his time at Liverpool and I believe we won't to pay stupid amounts to secure his services from Chelsea since he isn't playing at all for them. would score goals and have similar impact to Bellamy. Go for him Kenny. If we could also sign Torres I'd be ecstatic. WOuld be great playing him alongside Suarez
ReplyDeleteYeah ESPN Soccernet just reported that Anelka has his transfer request accepeted. I may be a deal to snap him up in January and he will help us in the second half of the season. Then we can look for another striker next summer, where we use Champions League football to lure better players to Anfield. :p
ReplyDeleteYes go and get him KK!!!!
ReplyDeletewell i think the same way as you but year ago.. kuyt is a man with 4 lung n he non-stop running should be good as cdm.. he not fast enough for attacking but he is good with passing.. i remember when kuyt+meireles+lucas are on the 1st 11, they combine with short n fast pass around the court which i really enjoy watching..
