Sturridge's signing will be confirmed this week, but it will be too soon for the £12m purchase to make his debut against Sunderland tomorrow. Negotiations for Blackpool midfielder Thomas Ince have temporarily stalled after Liverpool's valuation of around £4m – for a player who left Anfield last season for £500,000 – was considered too low. There is no prospect of Liverpool bidding any higher since Ince will be out of contract in the summer .
Rodgers is also looking at 21- year-old French defender Nicolas Isimat-Mirin from Valenciennes and has rejected a potential swap deal involving Joe Cole and Lille's Salomon Kalou.

Ouch...as much as it is an open letter of support, its also an open letter of warning

True but the essence of it is the writer wants him to do well. He also mentions "support that is unparalleled across the league".

Watching Steve Clarke's Albion play Fulham now. Fulham are doing well away from home. Just struck me that I've never really heard Clarke speak.

Wait until May before condemning Liverpool's season, says Rodgers

Most ex-Reds prefer Bent over Sturridge. Hmm..What do you guys think?

http://www.liverpool-kop.com/2013/01/colly...nelka-bent.html

for quick results, bent may be better due to his experience.
but for long term? bent is 29 this yr...hes probably got at most a couple yrs left in him.
whereas sturridge is still young and hasnt hit his peak yet...but is still scoring goals...one can only wonder what he can do once he reaches his peak in a couple more yrs.
then again, i dont think bent can play in any other system than 4-4-2?

so Sturridge wont be playing today? thats a shame. but i do hope that our *crucial* players stay during this transformation period unlike the time when Torres and Mereilles both requested for a transfer

thank god they are not liv manager!!

what time kick off this SUnday?

u mean next sunday? 9.25. but if you're referring to the next match (sunderland), its 3.40 am tomorrow

This sunday is the Round 3 of FA Cup game against Mansfield Town.
Guess the time should be on monday morning 12am
So, we are having 2 games for this week .

i forgot abt FA

got live telecast?

I guess there should be live telecast in Astro given that our game didnt clash with any other FA matches

Uh? Kevin Gameiro also coming?
If AC comes back as well, then suddenly too many strikers. Suarez, Sturridge, Caroll, Borini and Gameiro. LOL 5!

Now that's really wadefak situation.

http://gulfnews.com/sport/football/liverpo...-deal-1.1126512?

theSun havnig one page praising Suarez and the next page talking abt Alex as typical grumpy Scot.

changed editor oledi ka?

The Sun does not favor any teams lah. They will attack anyone or create sensational headlines out of an ordinary story to sell such as
"Main Headline: Suarez El Pistolero the Diver? No more!
Sub Headline: Hot Uruguayan routed QPR's defense as Harry's men stumbled in Loftus Road"

Now that is the SUN. Drama, drama, drama.

Of course they attack Liverpool more than other teams in the past.

perhaps he's trying to improve our shots per goal ratio?
or maybe he's just being careful after some critics from former reds on Sturridge

In a 4-3-3 system, he can only play 1 of them as centre forward. 5 strikers, 3 watch TV at home and 1 playing and 1 on the bench. Wadefak!. LOL

Which Liverpool will turn up tonight?

It is crucile we win this home game is sandwiched between two big games vs MancsU and Arsenal.
