"jury is still out as far as BRs transfer policy is concerned.. just because he 'knows' him, doesn't mean he is LFC quality. sorry to see Carra leave, will be hard to replace him, but we have to move on. "
"If this turns out to be true all those in BR we trust brigade should hang their heads in shame he is not even half as good as what we already have even Jaimie at his tender years is far better we dont need a big mouth in the team who calls Suares all sorts in a book."
"no, as we will pay over the odds. There are solid, reasonably priced defenders out there. We should be looking at better players than those who play for Swansea (apart from Michu)."
"i rally wouldnt mind if we get him. he's a good,solid CB. my only worry is i dont think he's gona get along well with suarez especially after what he said about him. "
"Brilliant reporting eh?
"Welsh paper The Daily Post reports Rodgers may need another centre-back with Jamie Carragher due to bring the curtain down on his Liverpool career at the end of the season."
I guess thats why we need a Centre Half...duh "
"plz don't take more from small team make some home work on good player such as mario gomez of bayern munich which is going to leave or bring back torres again it will be very usefull for us .
"
"Here we go again, we had this with Sturridge, I even recall some being critical when it was expressed that we were looking for defenders earlier in the season, it looks like the management knew something some of you didn't, remember we are not gonna attract big names at the mo so come on start being realistic & stop spitting out dummies & support your team. "
"We were the first team in top five tiers in Europe to have 500 shots this term & we're the highest scorers in Prem since the start of the year so stop highlighting the negatives which were to be expected & appreciate the positives which occur can it will only get better."
"There are better defenders out there. And didn't this guy said he wanted to injury suarez if he had the chance? I like our transfer policy so far, but this wouldn't be a good signing imo"
"if this is going to be true it would be a big insult to Suarez fans. And btw BR, can you see no further than Swansea? It's another input in the lazy-scouting entry book."
"Williams appears to have some anger issues and think that Swansea have ripped us off enough already.Liverpool paid too much for Allen and Rodgers. The manager whoever that is should look somewhere other than Swansea for a Carra replacement."
"I think what we need to remember here is "This story has been reproduced from today's media. It does not necessarily represent the position of Liverpool Football Club."
Probably a load of rubbish and leave BR alone. We are in a transition period and I reckon we are heading the right direction. YNWA
"
"i'm not trying to dis the manager in any way,but i'm concerned that he never looks beyong Swansea or players he worked with before as targets.maybe its meant to speed up the learning process?either way,i just hope we spread our net in search of new talent.if we buy average players,guess what?we will never move above 7th position"
"we should to stop paying over the top for players.i think that lesson has been learnt already though.having sad that,Ashley Williams is good center half.we also need a bully of a centre-midfielder. myabe we can get Wanyama from Celctics or Diame from West Ham?Any one in that mold.and another left back"
"quaility players don´t have to cost a lot of money. Sami Hyppiä comes to mind! Scouting team, get a finger out and get some gems for the summer. centreback, centremid (Alonso would be a dream) winger (ince would do me), downing can act as cover on left back. so maybe a goalie and a striker if Borini doesn´t step up. If money is not available, lets hope for Yesil and Morgan!"
"yes! I hope that we sign more good deffence.we need agressive tacklers at the back.i think our deffenders are losing marking on the opponents,especially in set pieces."
"Isn't he the guy called our Suarez the most deable footballer so that he could sell a few more copies of his book (based on his mediocre football life)? How the hell Rodgers can even think of bringing this moron to LFC? "
"He is a good CB that hardly ever gets injured and that is saying something! We need someone solid at the back and if he ends up costing under 7M then it will be good business. He can serve us for a good 4 years. "
"lpdcollier - Average ? Assaidi, Sturridge and Coutinho are great signings at bargain prices. Kenny Dalglishs signings were the worst I have ever seen in Liverpools transfer history. "
"br if u want swansea players
why did'nt you stay there,
you are turning liverpool into mid table team like swansea, lets understand your at a big club and to win trophys,not just keep us mid table team."
"I can't believe this!!. Yes, the guy is solid, but also deceptively slow, and Swansea will ask treble what he is worth. Dont even think Spurs or Southampton will compete for him. I dont think he is as good as what we have now and a backup CH younger and quicker who wants to play for us must be available."
"What is required is good scouting from now till the start of the Summer and look at all options. we also need some solid taller defenders who can deal with set plays which has been our achilles heel.Does this mean curtains for Skrtle and Coates. Wisdom and Sama and Kelly to come back are other options. "
"why bring in another konchesky? williams is only a brute and will force suarez out he has allready expressed his feelings towards him he runs his mouth too much and will bring more bad than good to the club."
"I have a lot more faith in BR signings than I would with kenny's awful ones. We were happy with average expensive players and average performances just because it was kenny. Fans acted like this was ok. It's not we are LFC greatest team in d world once upon a time and hopefully our fairy tale is not over just like sleeping beauty needs a bit of magic to wake us back. We need a happy ever after"
"No Ashley Wiiliams, please. Not another Swansea player....Dare Brendan brings him to Liverpool, the guy who damned Suarez for publicity. So that he can make AW vice captain......we don't want him here."
"maybe we are buying a player who hates Suarez cause Suarez is off to Bayern? we need somone like Carra who is constantly talking and Williams does that, i would give him a go, but send Allen back to Swansea as part and parcel"
"dislike yr team mate when u are off the pitch, but wen u r on it, playing a game, all dat matters is to put in a winning performance and grab 3 points...if he can do dat, den sure, y not..he is solid and is constantly talking"
"Next transfer window should be focus on our defense. we need a CB probably Howedes, a LB with experience, a better Young GK to give competition to reina and also for future just in case reina goes, and a quality backup for Lucas in DM. Think we are sorted in the front line and also in midfiled. we are just 4 players short to challenge for top four spot next season. Hope BR gets another season."
"Hope this is a load of #&%! We don't need another Swansea player! Rodgers previously worked with Allen (definitely out of his depth) and Borini (a walking injury). Think bigger Brendan!!!"
"I am of the opinion that, the managerial body knows what is right for the club. so if they want a William, they should have him. how are we sure Suarez will still be here this time next season!
"

"Could do with strengthening in central defence. Also, the daily mail is reporting that we're looking at Dejan Lovren from Lyon - a big, strong, classy, techincal CD - hope it's true coz he's better than anything we've got in that position."
"WHO are all these Swans we have bought? Allen, who was playing well but has now lost confidence. he is and will be an excellent player for us, its his first half season, and the lad is only 22. Give him a chance. as for Williams, he is decent, and it is clear we probably need a CB that will challenge DA and MS, as well as another as back up, so we will be linked with at least 20 by the summer! "
"If Ashley Williams is damn good, why are the big teams after him? Moreover, he is not young. We hate Ashley Williams or any other mid table players. You got that Brendan. Overpaid mediocre players."
"Yeah great move after what he said about Louis Suarez in his very short and uninteresting autobiography, I'm sure LOuis will lOve having him in the squad. Get a grip another Micheal Turner and Scott Dann, not a world class centre half."
"All you morons giving it about back Rodgers look at Sturridge, to a real football fan Sturridge was a no brainier in ability, but now turn your attention to Allen and Borini, fact not Liverpool quality and to those ppl that narrow minded to say we cant attract big players We are Liverpool and we can attract anyone and it about money Now anyway"
"Has BR stated at any point in his time here that he interested in signing Ashley Williams?
More Press b*ll*cks, easiest thing in the world, linking former manager with former players - lazy yes, but what are you expecting from the barrel scrapers?"
"Ashley Williams in a leader and an organiser. Brendan knows he's both as he made him Swansea skipper. We've only scored once against Swansea in 4 games when he's played."
"Here we go again, hes a big fish in a small pond but if he comes to LFC he will be a small fish in a big pond as did C.Adams, Downing, J.Allen, Hendo etc. Need quality first team players not fill ins or rejects"
"We don't need this stupid and mediocre player who is jealous of El pistolero. There will be far more better options in the summer so wake up Mr. Rodgers."
