barry, bale, bridge...

[god]

given a choice, which of these 3 LB's would you want patrolling the liverpool backline?

 

bale seems too raw at this point, but i'm wondering if we're underestimating the other two...bridge was one of chelsea's best players his first season there, and barry could be another carrick ( a player everyone claims is s***, but actually ends up looking half decent when surrounded by other players).

 

also, in terms of foreign LB's, who else would you rate? i admit i haven't seen a lot of foreign footy this year, but lahm and abidal impressed at the world cup...anyone else we should keep our eyes on?

O'shea

Can I have Baines instead? Or Shorey?

[god]

can you quickly summarize the strengths and weaknesses of these two, i'm not as familiar with them as i am the others.

Insua, Aurellio or Riise, we're fine

[god]

aurellio has a career threatening injury, insua has never played a competitive match over here, and riise - well, i think we can leave that debate to thread in the liverpool forum.

Having seen the scans, the medics think Aurellio should be back before the summer's out, I also forgot to mention Arbeola, we dont need another left back this summer, especially as there is no-one good enough to make it worth the change and ignoore the fact we are well stocked there.

Must have missed that.

Thanks to you, I've now got

Leigh-ton Baines, you probably think this song is about you

stuck in my head.

God I hate you.
