Liverpool Next Season...

Hi, Tottenham fan in peace!

Just read on the BBC Sport page about how Glen Johnson thinks Popov should be banned for more than 3 matches for spitting. Whilst I've always been a bit unsure of Glen Johnson's defensive capabilities I think he's gone up in my estimate for saying this.

Anyway just wanted to say I know there's always banter between the Liverpool and Spurs boards but I watched Liverpool yesterday against Man City and thought you were unlucky not to win. Rodgers has got you guys playing really well and I think you will definitely be challenging for top 4 next season. Hopefully Spurs will be 3rd next season, Liverpool 4th with Chelsea and Arsenal languishing behind...

Where do you think you guys need to improve? How do you view Spurs currently?

I actually think redrob is a closet spurs fan

If Defoe is out for a long time (It looks that way from what the media are reporting) and Ade comes back his lazy self, then I think you might struggle to pick up wins and a lot of your games will end in draws. You definitely need to buy a very good striker in the summer.

I don't really understand why you didn't try and bring Berbatov back in the summer, as he would have been great for you guys as a stop gap.

I still think you are short on the LB area, as I really don't see the hype around BAE.

As for us, a replacement for Downing (as good as he has been recently).

A back up DM and LB. Perhaps older players who would not be too bothered being benched.

Probably a new keeper (and backup) as Reina's heart does not seem to be in it anymore and Jones is well, Jones.

A new Carra to replace Skrtel (maybe Kelly can step up to that role as he is more like Jamie than any of the others).

The Jury is still out on Borini for me. Yes he has been injured and that has not helped him to settle in, but, every time I see him, I am not convinced he is going to score enough. I hope that will change.

Now Henderson is showing what he can do when played in the middle, we do not need anymore central players (bar the new DM).

Other than the 4/5 players needed, we have enough young talent coming though to see us OK in the next few years.

I think within the next 3/4 years the top of the table will be much closer than it is now.

I think Spurs need a top class centre half to partner Vertonghen, a top striker, and another wide player to compete with Lennon and Bale. You should finish top 4 this season, though you do have tough games while Arsenal don't. I think you will need to beat Arsenal at WHL. That game could be decisive.

They also need to win something as this improves the mentality of the group. The longer without winning something, the harder it becomes. You should have a fair chance in the Europa League as AVB has proved he can manage in Europe.

We (Liverpool), are improving nicely, can get 6th this season and with a few tweaks can proper challenge top 4 next season.

Righteous, we have a top class centre back already mate to partner Vertonghen......his name is Kaboul, shame he has been injured all season ....he's back soon though.

Boooo!!!!
Don't listen to him Liverpool fans. I will give you a better offer:

Hopefully Arsenal will finish 2nd, Liverpool 3rd with Man City, Chelsea and Spurs all finishing around 8th, 9th and 10th. AND, in the Summer you sign someone decent you want, I don't know, Messi or something
Hopefully Spurs will be 3rd next season, Liverpool 4th with Chelsea and Arsenal languishing behind...

4th is most definitely spurs' to lose. if 'arry was still manager think he would open his big mouth. i remember after spurs lost at home to man united 'arry saying "i'd rather be in our position than arsenal's" then ultimately lost it. think AVB is too smart to do the same

Hmm, I am not convinced of Kaboul's top class stature, but I know he was good last season.

i dont spurs fans .......the sheer necks on some of them is unreal and they are happy to put the boot in to us at any occasion.....

as far as liverpool goes.....yea i started off not really warming to brendan rodgers ...but in the last couple of months i can really see something in this current team.....that in a few years time might really turn into something .......but im a patient git and i want success now...

and god fowler.....fabio borini is a strange one ......that injury really knocked his progress sideways.....so its jury out for now , but he just needs a good solid run of games which i dont think he might get ..
