He's rapid on Fifa i know that!

It never works like this, especially with us, but....

August
17/08/2013 3pm Stoke City (h) Should win!
24/08/2013 3pm Aston Villa (a) Should win!
31/08/2013 3pm Manchester United (h) Moyes knows this game, only the team has changed. It'll be tough.

September
14/09/2013 3pm Swansea City (a) Tough low scoring game but we should take it.
21/09/2013 3pm Southampton (h) They might get a goal but we should win it.
28/09/2013 3pm Sunderland (a) We should have enough to win aslong as we're scoring goals.

October
05/10/2013 3pm Crystal Palace (h) Surely!
19/10/2013 3pm Newcastle United (a) Can't see anything but us passing them to death & winning.
26/10/2013 3pm West Bromwich Albion (h) They'll be tough to beat but I'm not sure if they'll repeat last seasons form.

18-24 pts from these I think?

Potential my friend. The kid will thrive at Liverpool under Rodgers.

we have enough pontential! we need proven players now! Suso, Sterling, Wisdom, Borini, Ibe, Assaidi, Aspas, Henderson, Shelvey, Coates, we do not need to spend money on him, 7 of those players already can play the same position we dont need any more unless they are proven at higher level in my opinion.

Atsu is a very direct player who has lots of pace one of the fastest I seen, he showing lots of promise but does not really score many goals, I think he play about 20 games last season and score 1 goal and maybe 1 assist. The season before he was on loan with Rio Ave.

We have very similar players of around the same age already in the position he plays, his game is pretty much the same as Sterling.

3m is a decent enough price for him though as he has time to improve, only thing is it is a waste if we buy him like we did with Assaidi and just no play him.

Here is a Video.



If we are after another player for that position Kelvin would be a better option but I don't think Porto will sell him. He score the goal in 91min v Benfica that won us league





Here is a video of Kelvin so you can make own minds up who is better

Fans should let the scouting team and manager do their job mate. People quickly forget the strategy FSG said they would use in the transfer market. Find the best young talent around and bring it to Liverpool. That's what they said.

We're the youngest squad in the league but there's plenty of established, experienced proven players in the squad.

Gerrard 33
Johnson 28
Enrique 27
Agger 28
Toure 32
Suarez 26
Downing 28
Lucas 26
Aspas 26 in August.



If we sign Mkhitaryan he's 24 years old. Mignolet is 25.

Adding young lads like Alberto, Ilori and Atsu is a good thing for me. It keeps everybody hungry, fighting for thier place. Knowing if they dont earn the shirt every week they'll be on the bench. Who knows what they might be? They could all turn into top players. It's not like we're breaking the bank for them. If they dont do it, the club can sell them on and probably make a profit. We'll get all 3 for less than the £15m we just got for Carroll.

Atsu all day mate.

I read that Porto were desperate to keep Atsu, offered him a 4 year extension but he turned it down.

He's played more games for them than Kelvin. 16 caps for Ghana.

Im a fan of Kelvin but happy that Porto are keeping him Hopefully if LFC do buy Atsu they will play him, he did turn down new contract because he wants to play in England. 3m is good for him though.

He looks good to me mate, he's lightening! Could do well in the prem... Away from home, hitting teams on the break. Try catching that lad in full flight! All the young lads can come in and out of the side and contribute.

I'm pleased with the business we're doing so far.
