Of course, being a die-hard liverpool fan, i'd always like to see new players at the club, especially wingers.. but i can't seem to find any capable players, good enough for liverpool, let alone the premiership.. I think i'd be dumb to sign mancini, considering his age, and i dont find quaresma strong enogh to the premiership.. However, as you pointed out, we have babel, benayoun, pennant and kewell on the flanks so.. I think Babel and pennant could be deadly on the two flanks.. something id like to see in the future..

Top-class wingers are a commodity and therefore cost an awful lot of money. Even someone like Joaquin, unproven in the CL and inconsistent, would cost £20 million or so. Dont really think the Premierships made for 'natural wingers'. Even Ronaldo has become more of an attacking-midfielder than a winger.

At last a decent subject matter. Seb Leto has been wonderful for the reserves as has Emiliano Insua. He is a natural replacement for kewell long term. This boy has skills but lacks a bit of confidence in the first team. The beast will be prevalent come next year, but for now, with a fit Harry Kewell we are ok. El Zahr is coming on nicely, so it's time to give these kids a run. We are not short of supply on the wings, experience yes, but talent no. It would be foolish for Rafa to buy a winger. All we need is a young Sammi Hyppia and then watch the youths blossom in the coming future. I watch the reserves regularly as they play where I am currently living. Rafa has played well into this market and exciting footballing talent lies ahead.
Wot do you think about agger? I mean, you mentioned a young hyypia.. Don't you think we've already got him?

Saw a footage of Paul Anderson...seems to have decent pace and a good ball control.Should be broken into the 1st team gradually next season, at least in the cup matches.

The winger debate is thrown up again, Jesus how boring. 6 points off the top and second when we win our game in hand, still unbeaten in the league and yet you are still harping on about wingers?? It's clear we don't need them. Wingers will completely change our game and negate the likes of Yossi, Babel, Kuyt, Voronin, etc. as the ball will bypass that area in the final third and be put out wide to be pumped in high. Therefore stop your wingers crossing and you have stopped a team playing to a large extent. Wingers are over rated and too expensive.

Go to Player profiles & the name Harry Kewell will appear as a winger. The last time I played football the left midfielder was the winger. It just depends on team format. Am I confused about this, or do you guys not know any thing about football.
