GerrardTorresIf we buy Charlie Adam, how will he fit in with Lucas, Gerrard and Meireles?
The other issue is including BOTH Suarez and Carroll.
I've tried to solve these 2 problems with the above lineup...but where does that leave Kuyt, Aurelio, Cole?

FeriAtsGerard is 30, he has 3 or 4 years of top level football ahead of him. If Liverpool can decrease the number of games he plays from 50+ to 40-, they can extend his career for another 2 or 3 years. If they get Adam, he could easily shoulder 20 or so games.

I don't think will see two of them on the pitch at the same time too often.

SanzKuyt - will play very often in the big games at least.
Aurelio - is never even fit to play.
Cole - will hopefully be off the books in the summer as he's well past his best. Definitely doesn't belong in the starting lineup.

I would stress, also, that it's a team game. And besides, many of our players haven't done enough to demand a regular place anyway.

Two problems with your formation...

1. Gerrard playing on the right is a non-starter and won't happen. Kenny has said in the very recent past that he feels Gerrard's best position is centrally.
2. I don't want to see Glen on the left next season. Yeah, he can do it and has done it very well defensively, but it limits him going forward. Having two right-footed players on the left flank would really grind my gears.

Although you may not be focussing on the defence but on Adam/Meireles/Gerrard/Suarez/Carroll, so that's fine, as long as you see a left back in our plans next season.

Personally, i'm not sure Adam is good enough to play at the top level, let alone demand a starting spot straight away.
