Reina: We have to get the transfers right this summer

|

Pepe Reina is very optimistic about Liverpool’s future. He told Liverpoolfc.tv:

“I think we want to grow and we have to grow. The owners and the people in command of the ‘boat’ see we have to bring in some players. We have to be right in those transfers and the players that we already have can be important for the new project. I’m very optimistic and I believe we are going to be better. You can see that the fans are much more optimistic now. The team is playing better and that is easier for them. We have always felt their support though because they are so loyal. It is always great to have this kind of support.”

Reina now believes Europe is in the club’s sights, although it was a different situation some months ago:

“I definitely could not see (Europe) it five or six months ago. But we kept fighting and turned the situation around. Now we need to do more to be even higher. It is down to all of us. Kenny Dalglish, Steve Clarke, Sammy Lee and all the staff have done a great job from January onwards. When the results are better and the team is winning people are happier and the mood in the dressing room is always better. Melwood is a happy place. The dressing room is quite young, loud and funny. When we have to work we are the first to do it and when it is time to joke, we like to joke and have fun too.”

This week it is LFC fan and tennis player Caroline Wozniacki!

    Agreed ! Liverpool must at least try and get the likes of Eden Hazard(18M) and Marko Marin(15M) / Adam Johnson (9M) on the team. Their speed, youth and ability to break up the opposing teams defence is much needed at LFC. As for our left-back crisis, I think Fabio Coentrao(20M) would be the man for the job. He is the solution to all our problems at left-back. Lastly, we should get Mamadou Sakho(15M) or Simon Kjaer(15M) as our backline isn’t quite stable yet. Carragher and Kyrgiakos are both old. Hence, they are losing speed and they end up making rash tackles which might cause us some valuable points,points we wont want to risk losing. In addition, we only need to splash a sum of about 70M for 4 world class players. I say splash ! YNWA

    I am sure that Kenny is good at getting the right people for the job! I will trust him to know and that I then do not have to tell him who to get and who not to get. I have noticed that he is better at being a manager than most of the fans that I read about on websites and can talk to in pubs, etc.

    I think Reina is letting FSG know what is expected of them this summer! He knows what the supporters and club deserves and for me, there we have our real captain!!

    Rogue, I’m afraid we cant compete for the likes of Hazard and Johnson etc because we are not a CL club, end of story. We are a team in transition, but hopefully the promise that we have shown since kenny took over will be enough for some quality recruits to join us, but you have to be realistic and forget about the top names, we are no longer in that league I’m afraid. But, there is still plenty of good talent to go around, and if the team keeps growing stronger at the same rate it has been the last few months, then we should be challenging for a top 4 spot.
    Just have a bit of patience this summer, and dont be too disappointed when you see all the top players going to all the top clubs. I’m afraid thats how it works.
