Just having a think about our present team and the malaise we are in for leaders/strong characters and this seems the most rudderless we have been in a long time.
All through my times as a our fan we always have had players like Gerrard, Cara , for ten years plus which were supplemented by Suarez recently. With Alonso Kuyt and Mascherano under previous managers.
Then going back to the Houllier we had Henchoz , Hyypia, Didi and Gary Mac and Owen
Nineties we had Molby, Barnes, Redknapp, Fowler and Macmanamanaman
and listing the eighties would show how strong we were as you could make a case for most of the players.
The present lot seems a bit meh to me at the moment as i really come up short with anybody warranting a legend status.
When we come to games it really can be a case for anybody playing and i find it hard to make a case for anybody to be considered every week.
Sometimes i feel like we need a whole new back four when we get the run around by Watford/ Newcastle and whatever other teams fancy it against us. The midfield three get over run by a lot of the **** teams but then counter it with great displays against City and Arsenal and the three up top look like they don't know what a net is no matter which three play.
Out of all that not one player steps forward and strikes me as turning into a legend for us and i find that a strange thing.
This leads me to Klopp signing a pedigree name who can be this leader who inspires the team and the fans in one swoop.
Hummels / Vidal / Kroos / Martinez / Khedira / Gundogan /Koke are the type of player i mean and if you spend 30/40 plus million on any of these surely it is less of a gamble and all our within reach ?
