Todays headlines has been characterized by manager Roy Hodgson saying he wants "five or six" player signings in january.
- We are going to be very interested in improving our squad in January, Hodgson said in the Daily Star.
- I'm prepared to accept that a number of players we're looking to sign do make five or six - but I don't wish to specify positions other than one is obviously a front player, the manager says.
And according to the same paper Hodgson is targeting former Liverpool striker Peter Crouch for the January shopping spree.
- In January we should be really looking to solve one or two situations. We are desperately short of players. Front players. “Having three front players at the club, and that’s if you include Ryan Babel, is nowhere near good enough, is his not surprising statement.
Another familiar name making the headlines today is Wigans Charles N’Zogbia.
According to The People Liverpool will launch a £9m bid for the Wigan winger.
Since turning down a move to Birmingham in the summer N'Zogbia has been in stunning form.
Hodgson and talent-spotter Kenny Dalglish watched French wing wizard N’Zogbia (above) in top form against Bolton last weekend when they went to see him and run the rule over today’s opponents.
The Anfield pair saw enough to send three of their top scouts, including number one Eduardo Macia, to check him out in midweek – only for N’Zogbia to be restricted to a brief appearance as a sub in the Carling Cup, the paper reports.
