If we gat a good RW, Kuyt will not start in that position, but will be used as a back-up striker, paving the way for Voronin to leave..

Also why do we need a LW, all the papers say we do.. Do they not remember Ryan Babel?

I agree that we probably don't need a left winger, that's why I would like Benitez to try sign Joaquin but Babel does seem to prefer his right foot alot of the time.

Already had my say on Quaresma lol, he's more suited to Italy anyway.

Voronin should leave anyway (and will do in the next yr 1/2 i bet *summer of 2010 i reckon). . . No reason Kuyt should be back-up, so that should be enough reason NOT to persue Quaresma.

Everyone seems to forget Babel. . . Yet hes like a Thierry Henry, 10 yrs young.

If Valencia lose Villa to either barca or real, then i am not sure they'd release joaquin. . .

though, that would be a better signing than quaresma

I think Quaresma could be a great player for us. He's played champions league, and he's been a champion in the portuguese league. I'm sure there were a lot of people who said Nani or C Ronaldo would not have performed in the premier league due to being flashy. But how wrong were they? There were also many fans skeptical of spending that much cash on a certain spanish striker named Fernando Torres.

Quaresma has what we so desperately need. He also has what the owners seem to be interested in. He's young, would sell tons of merchandise if he performs, and has supreme resale value. What the team needs is a natural wide player that is creative, pacey, takes on his man, can take a set piece, and has great crossing and passes. From what I have seen I think Quaresma fits all those categories.

First of all why you mentioning scum in this thread? we've got enough with their so called fans posting here.

And as for the Quaresma thing, that's because little kids look up to these players because they get so much publicity and are so called big names and great players. Why do we want a showoff and a play actor coming to Liverpool encouraging the young kids?

Plus how much would this prat cost us compared to other good wingers?

I'm mentioning Utd. players because they prove my point. Before they were transferred from Portugal, some people thought that Ronaldo and Nani would never have found success in the premier league with their style of play. Actually it has been quite the opposite. THUS, even though people are skeptical of Quaresma's flashy style, he could end up being a great success for our club. I dont give a toss what this guy is like off the pitch.

As, for the whole kids thing. This signing is about football and winning No.19. The kids can make up their minds if they like Quaresma or not. I want someone that can help us win trophies.

Quaresma would have to be atleast 20 million pounds. He has a 40 million euro release clause in his contract, but Porto are rumoured to have lowered their asking price due to Quaresma's increased desire to leave. He has the potential to be world class. And there's no doubt in my mind that he would be able to adjust to the premier league.

And there are NO other wingers of his ability level available.

wowGEEKevl · 25-08-2008, 09:53 PM

I'm pretty sure won't be signing him anyway so i'm happy

So, who would you rather have then?

wowGEEKevl · 25-08-2008, 10:42 PM

I'd rather have Joaquin, looks like it's gonna be Riera though if Everton don't get him.

sammeboy · 25-08-2008, 10:43 PM

Riera is a good player, would develop well at Liverpool.

they want 16 mill for riera, (you know were they can stick that), id like us to go for Downing or Lennon, more Downing because we need a LM more than RM

sammeboy · 25-08-2008, 10:48 PM

£16 million! Forget him then, rather get Barry if it was for us.

I agree about where Espanyol can stick that 16m. I would rather us sign a Right winger anyway, I know Babel likes to come on his right foot but he still looks comfortable on the left when he's played there.

the reson i said we need a LM is because we have El zhar, Kuyt, Pennant who can play in the RM position, but the same cant be said for LM, we have Babel who id like to see play more of a striker role but we need a player that is great in that position not a player that has played as striker for the majority of his career. The ideal situation is signing a player that can play any side like a Joe Cole, but you dont see many of them.

U should sign Arda Turan. Sounds like just the player u need

wowGEEKevl · 25-08-2008, 11:57 PM

I'd love Joe cole over anyone else mentioned but that's not a realistic transfer so I never bother mentioning him

Haha that was funny. Well done. Scroll down to "istory" and read that. I am from America so I actually say the letters like an h in history and such but it was funny to try and read it as it is written.

lvrpl4life · 26-08-2008, 07:21 PM

We have offered £2mil LESS than Everton for Riera but he wants to come to Liverpool.

Portland1 · 26-08-2008, 08:02 PM

Looks like we'll be signing Riera. I havent seen him play, but Rafa must see something good in him. Lets hope he's a bargain and a success

Kaka11|LFC · 26-08-2008, 09:54 PM

he looks good on youtube keeping in mind that you don't get to see how consistant he is and leaves out all the **** he does

joegerrard · 26-08-2008, 11:16 PM

lennon... will be better.....
but did we make a bid for one of them??

It looks like the Riera signing is near completion according to several websites.

I keep hearing different things about this guy. I've heard that on his day and in good form he can be one of the best wingers in europe. But he needs constant attention from the managers too play well apparently.

If he's been capped for Spain recently then me must be a good player.

we're already looking like we have some good depth in the squad. So hopefully this man can give us what we need out wide.

maybe its possible for one more signing? who knows what Rafa has up his sleeve.

LewisLaa · 27-08-2008, 06:52 AM

The Standard Liege game edges ever close, i'm a bit worried. If they grab a goal then we need two.. Really don't want to exit the CL this early on.
