Thomas Muller

There is no doubt that Liverpool need at least three new first team players to help them compete at the top end of the Premier League. Today we take a look at three potential targets.

First up, I believe Gary Cahill should be high up on the list of potential transfer targets for Liverpool. The defender is showing his real worth at Bolton and with him being young he certainly is one for the future. With Jamie Carragher’s best years behind him and uncertainty surrounding Daniel Agger and Martin Skrtel, Could Cahill and Danny Wilson strike up a lasting partnership. If I were a Liverpool fan, I would definitely welcome such a defence pairing.

We are constantly hearing the likes of David Bentley and Shaun Wright Phillips being linked with a move to Merseyside, but I do not believe either of these two players would be the answer to the problems that surround Liverpool’s wide areas. For me, Arda Turan could be the answer, he has publicly stated his love for the club and he has more than the ability to cope with the Premier League. At just 23 he has played 43 times for his country and has widely been tipped to one of Europe’s elite teams in recent times. The tricky winger also has an eye for goal which would be beneficial as Liverpool have struggled to consistently rack up the goals during this campaign.

Finally my third signing this January would be Thomas Muller from Bayern Munich, Müller plays as a midfielder or forward, and has been deployed in a variety of attacking roles – as an attacking midfielder, second striker, or on either wing. He has been praised for his pace, technique and composure, and has shown consistency in both scoring and creating goals. The young forward had a very decent World Cup and I believe with his attributes he would be a great strike partner for Torres. With Liverpool’s new owners keen to bring in young players with potential, he certainly fits the bill.

So there you have it, three players I’d like to see at Anfield come January. Were these players to join I am sure the fortunes of the club would change swiftly resulting in the team climbing the table and setting themselves up nicely for the second half of the season. Are these signings feasible, and are they the type of players that could make a difference at Anfield?
