Just believe and you never know what will happen.
According to Benitez it's important not simply to go out to win but to go out prepared to win, which means players have to put in the same level of work on a daily basis. Anything else is unacceptable.
In all seriousness tho, it really depends on how much cash we have to invest. Cannot see Rafa selling all 3 of Crouchie, Kuyt & Voronin. Would like to keep Big Pete of them 3, but bet he keeps the hapless Kuyt.
I think Kuyt may return to Holland unless his form picks up, Momo, if he isnt sold by the end of the window, Carson because its basically a done deal isnt it?
In addition Voronin and possibly Hyypia.
I dont think anyone else will go, talk of a clear out would lead to massive instability and so wont happen. There are players at risk such as Riise, Kewell, Pennant and Crouch, but with the rotation system used they can all do a job and so I think they will stay. My opinion is that if these players were part of a squad instead of the likes of Voronin, Sissoko and Kuyt to seem not to be performing on a regular basis then I would be pleased, and it should mean we have a stroger squad.
Quit your jibber jabber!!!
Jermaine, you know the song Billie Jean...is it about the tennis player??
I doubt he'd let go of 3 attackers - Crouch probably, Voronin maybe, Kuyt would need to be a good offer. I cannot see Pennant leaving, or Aurelio .. Hyypia is also doubtful. Why hasn't Carson gone already?
I'd go for Crouch, Guthrie, Carson and Kewell ... and maybe Voronin.
I'm playing all the right notes. Not necessarily in the right order. I'll give you that, sunshine.
i think kuyt could go in a deal with another dutch based player coming here.....
also, i think that moronin will be shipped off to germany...
kewell will probably end up in fulham or west ham and return to his leeds form...
hyypia will go for the same reason as didi...because somebody will offer him a 2 year deal and he will get one last pay-day....possibly to celtic...
pennant will stay simply because nobody will pay over 5m for him.....oh wait, newcastle will.....next!!!! (maybe in some sort of swap deal with owen´???)
crouch could sign a new deal if you ask me....if he doesnt then we will still get 8 to 10 for him - maybe somebody like manCity or Newcaslte but i have a feeling that crouch would prefer to be a squad player at lfc than a regular for Citeh.......maybe the sven factor might swing it???
riise could easily be sold if somebody would pay over 4million - maybe villa could sign him???
it is more interesting to see who we will sign if you ask me:
Aimar,
VanDer Vaart (did you see yesterday he came out and stated that a move to england or spain would be his preference over juventus)
I think it's more question of who would you keep. Save on ****in' ink ( Not ink strictly speaking I know but you know what I mean). After the spine SG, FT, DA, PR, RB, JC, XA JM and LL you could flog the ****ing rest of them for all I care.
I have one word to offer - honesty. I couldn't be devious if I tried. Joe Fagan.
Kuyt - poor
Voronin - same as Kuyt
Crouch - average - we need better
Kewell - Done
Riise - good servant but we need better now
Pennant - He's utter gash for mine, 1 goal in 70 odd games?
Sissoko - for the cash
Carson - same as Sissoko
Guthrie - won't get in the team, take the money
Leto - maybe not good enough (but seems a bit early)
Le Tallec - if not already gone
Who I think will go:
Crouch - only 18 months left
Kuyt or Voronin - one will go but not both, most likely Voronin.
Pennant - as above - we need better
Kewell - as above
Carson - as above
Sissoko - as above
Leto - as above
Guthrie - as above
Finnan - reckon he could be replaced for a more offensive option.
Riise - as above
Le Tallec - if not out of contract - 1 year left?
Who I'd like to see come in:
Top Striker: Huntelaar / Villa
3rd Striker: Owen / Saviola / Kenwynne Jones
4th Striker: Nemeth
Att MF (Hole Player) - Aimar
Proper Winger: Joaquin &/or Capel
RB: Alves
LB: Drenthe (loan?)
