......to shore up key positions.

So we sign a center-back?

Skrtel, Agger, Kyriagos and Carragher. Four first team centerbacks,
plus Kelly and Ayala over in the reserves.......?

But would strikers *want* to sign for Liverpool under Rafa? They've seen
what happened Keane and Aquilani. Why would any world-class, attack-minded
player want to come to a club where he would be left on the bench in
favour of Kuyt and N'gog?

I don't think the problem is that Rafa won't sign strikers.

It's that no striker in his right mind would risk his career by going to
Anfield. Rafa's reputation has caught up with him.

Goodbye and good riddance Rafa.

He is 18, he is hardly bought to strengthen the team in the next season
or two. Carra might well continue to play to a good level for the next
couple of seasons, or he might crash and burn like Henchoz. I think it
is great that the team is finally trying to buy some promising youth.

Yes.

When you've spent millions on players like Torres, Mascharano, Johnson,
Aquilani, Keane, Babel, Kuyt and Rieira only to finish seventh then cheap,
*promising youth* is all you have left.

Seems the strategy advanced seven years ago - to sack Houllier and bring
in a high-profile manager who would attract the very best to Anfield has
failed.

Spectacularly.

So now you're having to come up with another strategy.

Do we have to accept this one as well, the same way we were forced to
accept your failed policy of seven years ago, which has now resulted in
six years of unending tedium and irreversible bankruptcy?

You're posts are getting more bizzare by the day Pope, but they do make
me laugh.
