Daniel Sturridge??

Maybe he is the one to replace Carroll?

But why would Chelsea sell him as he is their only striker cover for Torres!

Sturridge and Dempsey in? Thoughts?

Whatever happens, if we get him, Dempsey has to start.

Sturridge does imo have the type of game that would fit in with the style that Rodgers plays. However, I can't see Chelsea selling him unless Roman once again opens his wallet and buys another one or even two strikers and cover/competition for Torres.

Sturridge comes across as a bit of a bell, but he has good ability and could become a quality player. Under the first few months under AVB he looked decent and he did very well when on loan.

He may not be a popular choice amongst some fans, but I think he could do a job for us.

and llorente is in no way similar to andy carroll. just coz he's 6ft 5, doesn't make him a similar player. he plays great with the ball on the floor and doesn't fall over all the time like carroll does

Llorente is a very skillful player who would contribute to our all round play exactly as BR wants. But could then get on the end of a cross to score.

He's not the same as Big Andy, he's much more well rounded.

Exciting day tomorrow Expect Liverpool to be in the yellow bar a good few times before the window closes

I agree with that Igor

But him being less prolific for Spain was down to the manager rather than 'Villa outshining him' IMO

Yeah, that's probably fair. The fact that Torres didn't play in the 'Barcelona' style, that Spain clearly wanted to adopt, week in week out probably counted against him in that respect, he was there to have his reputation take defenders out of the game and leave space for others.

Sturridge will score more goals in 6 months for us than Carroll did in 18 months!

Sturridge lacks discipline; he appears to have an attitude problem. Maybe BR can straighten him out. Big risk though. jimmyTheRed
