    Liverpool legend Bruce Grobbelaar has told talkSPORT he believes the club are on the verge of signing a new striker.

    With Luis Suarez banned until mid-February, Andy Carroll out-of-form and Dirk Kuyt without a goal since May, the Reds have struggled to score, culminating in a 0-0 draw with Stoke.

    But the goalkeeper, who won a European cup and six league titles with the club, understands a new forward will be arriving at Anfield shortly.

    “There are two strikers [Liverpool are interested in],” said Grobbelaar. “I know that [Kenny Dalglish] is looking at a South American striker who is playing in Holland and I know that he’s quite close in getting another striker.

    “I’m not going to be the one to actually tell you who, but I’m sure that the striker will be arriving soon.”

    Knew it, King Kenny is a sly old dog!

    David Texeira and another (big name?) which can't be revealed yet...Apparently earlier statement about no signings just a smokescreen, need to make the seller doubtful to keep price down.

    Just seems a bit strange that Bruce would tell everyone that we're buying a new striker??

    We badly need a boost and a spark of positivity. A couple of new strikers (!!) is exactly what we need. Will give us new options at the very least!

    3 goals in 20 appearances and he missed the whole of the 2010/2011 season.

    And Wikipedia says he is an attacking midfielder...

    I'm only going on the alleged recommendation of Luis Suarez. The other player is again allegedly Luc Castaignos from Inter Milan


    As for David Texeira his full name is César David Texeira Torres <yikes>

    Castaignos has 37 games and 15 goals for Feyenoord and 1 in 4 for Inter. Not bad for someone who is only 19...

    And the Lodeiro bloke you mentioned earlier Hash... His full name is Marcelo Nicolás Lodeiro Benítez!

    "I do not know how much I regret not being able to field Castaignos." These are the words of Claudio Ranieri, the eve of the match against Parma. Yeah, that Luc Castaignos Inter at home that now has become something of a mystery: we all say a lot of good, everyone is ready to swear on his potential, but there is a small problem: simply never see the field. Of course, the young Dutchman, who arrived from Feyenoord in the summer, is to occupy a particularly heavy, in a department already occupied by two 'giants' such as Milito and Pazzini and another element of class as Diego Forlan. But even when the first two had difficulty in framing the door and Cacha was out injured, the spaces for Luc were reduced to a flicker. Nor is the goal that sealed the resounding victory that improved the situation of Siena, in fact from that moment Castaignos has even disappeared from circulation almost. So what? The most logical solution seems to give him six months elsewhere in order to gain experience, and in this sense is no shortage of suitors in Italy but also abroad. And it seems to come from abroad actually more concrete proposal. The first rumors had circulated a few days ago, but now, according to insights made &#8203;&#8203;by FcInterNews.it , it seems to have its concreteness: Dutch like, and a lot to Kenny Dalglish , Liverpool manager, who would have identified him as the ideal player to replace Luis Suarez, facing a suspension that will keep him away from the fields until March. The proposal to borrow dry from Anfield would have already arrived on the table of leadership Inter, now he intends to make appropriate assessments If, as waiting to developments linked to Tevez and Zarate, and this opportunity would also have spoken with the player. The idea of a passage in the Premier League would therefore not be so fanciful, but the Reds still have to deal with what is the will of the attacker of Schiedam, who, despite everything, continues to believe that you can still have their say at Inter. He has already said, and for these intentions have created obstacles in the negotiations for his move to Bologna and Cesena, particularly in training continues to prove it, where he continues to write every time. Perhaps the player hoped to participate in the goleada with Parma, then entered the Pharaohs for Milito and just the outside has made &#8203;&#8203;the wonderful network of five goals. But Luc does not quit, and then you have to understand how society can reconcile the obstinacy of the boy with any technical requirements. And then, at Liverpool would, once back Suarez, to relive the same situation that now gripped him at Inter. Albion, however, awaits ...''

    He was left out of the squad for the Milan Derby .... hmm interesting
