    Here's one to get people going.

    The Metro on the UK say we're bidding £23.5m for Saido Berahino.

    Nevermind a sackable offence, that'd warrant being hung, drawn and quartered.

    If we spend that much on him while letting Shaqiri go to Juve for 15m....

    Wouldn't surprise me if there was another twist in the Shaqiri story yet

    I would imagine its less about 'letting' him go to Juve and more about him wanting to move to a similarly top level team

    Fingers crossed anyway. He's who we should have gone for when we missed out on Sanchez.

    Our current strikers are perfectly capable of missing great chances and not scoring goals so I doubt many Liverpool fans want another striker in that mould.

    I'd take him. Wouldn't be licking a shoe or anything but I think he's a good goalscorer. Wages and injuries would put me off though but at the right price he'd be great. He'd score goals no doubt which is what we need.

    Will be looking closely at Bony tonight, really wanted him in the summer and hope he doesn't make us regret it tonight

    I dunno, he'd be a great partner for Sturridge














    In the physio room.

    Liverpool might get the chance to buy Falcao in the summer cos Utd won't the way things are going for him.

    Falcao would have been the perfect replacement for saurez.

    I don't think anyone expected Balotelli to be playing this bad.

    On the basis of what I've seen this year so far, I'd have to say that unfortunately Alexis Sanchez would have been the perfect replacement for Suarez. A real shame.

    Yeah. Himself or falcao.

    Or both as falcao is a loan. Would have really set ye up for the year and probably be stronger than last year

    It shows you how slender the margin is between success and failure. No matter what we had done with the rest of the money if we had of got him no one would have cared. We are just so short of those really top level players in their prime who can dictate or change games.

    Why Falcao? He hasn't done anything yet to regret not getting him. He has been injured for most of the season. An abosulte world of difference between him and Sanchez. It seems strange that someone would even suggest Falcao. Are you a United fan?

    Getting Falcao on 300k a week plus 10m loan fee would have a terrible deal & he has been very poor at Utd.
    Don't forget Falcao has been off form for well over a year.
    Reports that El Shaarway could be available for €15m which could be worth a gamble. Berahino is too overpriced.
    We should be looking at some strikers around Europe instead of the PL where they are overpriced. Carlos Vela is another player who should be looked at.

    He's a player I like, quite a difference between the leagues though so would be a bit of a gamble as we need somebody to come in and score on day 1. But at that price I'm a fan, Balotelli could go back the other way.

    Fairly certain the Falcao loan fee was half what you've quoted, As for the "Off Form" year, do you mean where he spent from January out injured?

    We already fked up with Balotelli. Falcao would just top it off.

    He is at United for the money (how many times has he chosen money over CL football?)....... and we are asking lads to take pay cuts to join us!. (yes, i realise i've left it open to a snidey remark about LFC probably not having CL football next year so it might be a goer).

    There's an obvious striker in this league who we could get and be better for us than either of those two players.

    Benteke!

    Will we go for him?. Will we f**k!.

    A blind man knows whats wrong with this team at this stage. Stubborness, arrogance and perhaps some 'politics' is holding us back.

    We know what we need. We will probably end up with a wing forward on loan and cover for fkin Jones.

    The lack of respect for Falcao is just plain odd.The guy is proven quality and only a 7 year old would write him off after 4 months.

    Do you really believe he's what Liverpoool are looking for or what would improve your team?

    He's vastly overrated and a more athletic Emile Heskey.

    Isn't Jones off to the Asia Cup in January? If so I think a goalkeeper is a no brainer early in the window
