Rafa Benitez insists he is not concerned that the Robbie
Keane disaster will deter players from signing for
Liverpool.
Benitez has already identified his summer targets, and it will
surely be the top end of the field that the Spaniard looks to
bolster after injuries to Fernando Torres and Steven Gerrard
hampered their season.
Keane was supposed to be the third leg in an attacking tripod
but, after featuring in Liverpool’s first 17 games of the season,
it quickly became clear that the £20 million man was not
working.
Now Benitez will try again, with Valencia trio David Villa,
David Silva, and Juan Mata all linked, and the Liverpool boss is
confident players will relish – not duck - the chance of playing
with Torres and Gerrard.
"Everyone knows how good Torres and Gerrard are and they do play
very well together," said Benitez.
"But we have 60 games or so a season. That means there are going
to be plenty of chances for everyone, so I don't think it would be
a problem.
"Obviously it depends on the quality of the players, but I don't
think it is going to be a problem. I think we will manage.
"We have been working hard identifying players, it is just a
question of signing the right ones, and I am confident we
will."
they are not scared for singing for Liverpool, they are scared
when they SIGN WITH RAFA!
