Liverpool’s £9.5m transfer regret & Kenny confirms transfer interest – Best of LFC
Amidst all the doom and gloom of a troubled season this week hasn’t been half bad for Liverpool. A morale boosting win away at Blackburn in on Wednesday was followed by another resilient display to come from behind and beat their Merseyside rivals in the FA Cup semi final. Andy Carroll emerged as the hero in both games scoring two headed winners to give himself a massive confidence boost and finally start paying off the £35 million price tag that has haunted him ever since his move from Newcastle in January 2010. It means the Reds will play at Wembley for the third time in the space of three months and give Kenny Dalglish the opportunity to bring another trophy back to Anfield. With next season being pinned as a chance to rebuild the Scot will have to navigate the transfer market without Damian Comolli after he was sacked from his position as Director of Football.
This week on FFC the cream of the Merseyside derby crop are relived, question marks are pointed at the recently dismissed Comolli and Liverpool’s youth players are a hot topic of discussion.
