    Rodgers 1-0 Doubters

    He’s proving that big players will want to play for him. Agger wants to stay, Suarez signs a new deal, Skrtel about to sign a new deal. Sahin choosing us over Arsenal. I thought they would only play under a Benitez or a Van Gaal?

    Long way to go, but, hey, we’re 1-0 up. Something to hang on to.

    Two weeks ago I would of literally told you to fuck off if you said we could genuinely sign Sahin.

    Lloyd would of told you to go choke on your Kool Aid :p

    Feels good to be able to get a genuine top quality player. Suarez aside we haven't been able to do that in an awful long time.

    Let's not get carried away. Sahin could just be a big FGTH fan.

    Bastards getting him would have loved him at United .

    Midfield 3 of Lucas Allen Sahin ?

    Sahin coming here would be excellent news, but the thing is Rodgers is unlikely start him regularly over Allen, he's just spent 15m on the guy. Lucas is a nailed on certainty and Gerrard is likely to play the role behind the striker so I don't see Sahin as a regular league starter. He'll obviously play plenty due to rotation and injury but unless he's absolutely superb I don't see him displacing Allen.

    Sahin will be a nailed on starter, guaranteed.

    Of course he'll be a regular starter. He won't be coming here to sit on the bench. Rodgers will have guaranteed him being a first team player to Jose.

    Shout out to Mourinho too, who most reliable media seem to say that he really wanted Nuri to join us.

    Honestly, couldn't be ****ing more delighted right now. Favourite BVB player in my time supporting the club since 2006, looking all but likely to be playing for LFC for the next season at the very least. Unreal :D:D:D

    I hope so. But I just think Rodgers finds himself in an awkward position now. It's a fantastic problem but keeping everybody happy will be difficult.

    It's not an awkward position tbh. He can play Allen, Lucas, Sahin in the middle and then Gerrard up top on the right of the front 3. I don't he'll have any problem sticking Allen on the bench either.

    pathetic post is pathetic

    I am one of the people that is not singing Rodgers praises for no reason other than he was made Liverpool manager but I will give him credit for this signing so fair play to him now if he keeps agger and carroll and brings in a winger I will give him even more credit.

    all he has to do now is win football matches, easy peasy!!!

    I'm delighted. I'd say Rodgers is little surprised himself that he got Sahin but well done to him. But the thought struck me that he has a lot of good players competing for 3 spots.

    I'd be surprised if Rodgers sees Gerrard as the man for the right side role but if he does fair enough and the midfield looks great on paper. I'm looking forward to seeing how it plays out.

    It's good to have competition for places. Stops complacency, improves standards and keeps squad on their toes.

    Also, gives higher quality back up for injuries, cup games etc.

    I believe nothing regarding Sahin until I see him play

    Sahin, this time last year talking about being linked with Inter
    Still, that wasn't as bad as the story I read which said I'd signed for Liverpool - which obviously wasn't true [laughs]

    Robert Jarni, Dave Unsworth, Portuguese lad, attacking midfielder who played for Fiorintina and Milan, with a day in Parma inbetween. Embarrassed I can't recall his name right now, quality player. You can't be too careful

    Anyone think we should look at bringing in Royston Drenthe?

    A bit of a head case, but a decent player available on a free. Could be worth a shot on a short term deal and see how he does


    Edit. Rui Costa

    Edit. Rui Costa
    Drenthe could be handy for a number of reasons - he can play as a wing back, winger or CM and he's handy in most of those positions.

    Definite head case though - do you remember Liverpool vs. Feyenoord pre season a few years ago?

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rd6LBvf2NDM


    Drenthe was flying in for the majority of that game
