I think the constant link to Dempsey strengthens the argument that Rodgers is looking towards the 4-6-0 formation. He isn't a striker as such is he? IMO, Brendan didn't see Carroll as part of his plans because of his movement (the not being able to be part of the passing system is just bollox). Rodgers wants players that are flexible and able to interchange with others - Suarez, Borini, Sterling, etc can all play left, right or centre, they can drop back to help out defensively too. With Carroll, you don't really get that. We won't sign a Fowler, Owen, Huntelaar type of striker IMO <ok>

I like this new way of thinking - we saw how dependent we were on Torres and we really struggled without him. I would rather have 3 players who can score 10 goals each than 1 player who scores 30.
 
look, spearing says he's going to bolton, carroll is gone and adam is in stoke... the henderson stuff doens't make much sense if you look at the sell job we got laid on before last nights match. I don't see anyone else going out right now.... they all seem to be moving bright and early to get things sorted.

its the in thats totally dark so stand by for huge speculation..... nobody knows who the hell will come in and i'm SURE it'll not be so predictable.

I disagree, having a 20-30 goal a season man puts fear into the opposition. Would love that reliability again, to just know the said person will score.

I'd rather have one that scores thirty and still have the other two bagging ten <ok>

A 20-30 goals a season man gets you those all important goals when you are struggling. It also breeds confidence into the rest of the team and suddenly the midfielders that weren't scoring can now find the net fairly regularly too.

Good point! Actually, I'd rather have 3 players scoring 30 goals each ...

Latest name we're linked with - Leandro Damiao. Season long loan for £3m.

I don't know much about this guy but isn't he supposed to be another 'next best thing'...? At this moment in time I don't who we get as long as we get someone! (apart from Walcott or Muller, I like my nuts <whistle>
 
According to Sami Mokbel of the Daily Mail Liverpool are weighing up a move for Brazilian striker Leandro Damiao. He claims the Reds have been offered the option of season long loan at cost of £3m. With an option to then sign him for £13m next summer

Yes please..

For £13m next summer?? Its worth it for that alone, thought he was £20m-£30m man.
 
Llorente is amazing on the deck for his height, a brilliant all round striker. he's not pacey though so the high pressing game probably wouldn't suit him, with that said though Bilbao play a similar high pressing style too.

I think he would, he can do a bit of everything. Not exactly young though.

I meant in terms of flexibility. Could you see him popping up on the left, right or dropping back to help out defensively...? Can you see him interchanging with Suarez, Borini, Gerrard, Sterling, etc
