Agger

[RPAS]

His range of passing and execution of the same has been a revelation for us this season. He's a little Hansenesque in this respect. Looks like he could be our "attack starter" on a regular basis. Given his age and experience it bodes very well for the future.

He will prove to be a great buy.............and if he gets anywhere near Alan's standard playing against a good team he will be fantastic

[Parm]

he is looking a bargain at 5mill odd.
Getting stronger week by week, I remember when he first joined he looked a bit out of place, but now...

I'm still amazed at the ease in which he usurped Hyypia. An amazingly smooth transition for a central defender. We've already taken him for granted, which says a lot, IMO.

[RPAS]

I thought we'd ended up with second best when I saw how Vidic played for the scum early on but we appear to have the much more rounded/higher ability player now in our stable. Great spot by the scouting department considering Richards will probably go for 3 to 4 times the amount we paid for him.

I think the beating (literally) that drogba gave him in the first leg of the Champs League semi last season really thought him a lesson - he matured hugely in that week and showed his strength of character in the second leg. Add to that the experience of playing the CL final - he's going to become an Anfield stalworth at the back. He compliments Carra as well as any player could.

Couldn't agree more. Everyone was wondering how we'd replace Sami; now its a surprise if Sami is on the field ahead of him.

[Maestro]

When the time comes, if Carra's replacement is of a comparable quality, and we can ease him into first team action as smoothly as we did with Agger, we'll be sorted at the back for years to come...

[RPAS]

Replacing Carra would/will be far more difficult than replacing Sami - you can buy ability/pace/class/aggression etc but you can't buy a player that has it in him to die for the jersey - Gerrard went to the brink and came back - I could never see Carra even contemplating a move.

The good thing about Carra is that he doesn't rely on blistering pace so as he gets older he won't be loosing that "edge". I can see Carra being our Baresi.

Micah Richards alongside Agger would be superb.

[CAD]

I wouldn't play Micah Richards in the defence. He should be further upfield imho.

[Joe King]

I think he is much better than Ferdinand, God I hate that ****ing bent lipped wannabe gangster. He has better ball control, very cultural and still has years to go.

Great buy by Rafa.

He's already a better defender than Hansen was.

We still need one more. Agger is great cover for Hyypia. We don't have a great stopper like Carra though. I would have loved to have Ayala as backup to Carra.
