So we are buying Bertrand to be third choice LB?

One thing I have noticed is that Rodgers is very quick to drop and isolate players he believes isn't doing a job for him: sahin, assaidi,Carroll, aspaz, Moses, Enrique etc Another thing Liverpool have a great chance at attracting quality young players that could make a name for themselves, with the appeal of cl football but Rodgers seems to be going for players in a lower bracket.

I'd welcome him ahead of a number if others we've been linked with (Yay they let me into the soccer forum)

Oranage2 wrote: » QUOTE=Calvin Leong;91316164]Sturridge is the main man that comes to mind. Henderson and Coutinho as well, to a certain extent. Henderson looked certain to be on his way out and Coutinho wasn't even a starter at Inter (I think) I think themain reason Henderson looked out was because Rodgers tried to sell him for 2 million, coutinho was a very promising young player but he suffered a lot with injury and never really got started at inter. Sturidge had a lot of promise too but wasn't good enough for money bags Chelsea or city. Granted he did get them all playing very well and in Daniels case exceptional so there is some merit to the argument.

Henderson is much further along the lines in terms of development as a player than Flanagan and has much greater scope for improving to an elite level IMO. Liverpool need a squad of 22-24 players for the coming season. The likes of Richards/Bertrand make it a stronger 'squad' than what exists there already
Turtyturd wrote: » But he loaned out a better player than Moses to bring Moses in.Despite all that stuff Henderson was still overrated last year. Additions to the squad should be brought in to be starting in their position, or with the view to being long term replacements for who we currently have in those positions, while being able to contribute now if required. They should also be better than Bertrand and Richards.

Oranage2 wrote: » Well I can't confirm the exact details of the deal as I'm not his agent but he was offered to fulham as an exchange for Clint Dempsey, and Henderson even admitted that Fulham was an option.
