Can you imagine:

Eriksen-Lucas-Gerrard


So where does Xabi fit in this lineup? Or will we not be able to afford Erikson and Alonso without money from European competition?

Honestly I would go:

Coutinho-Sturridge-Suarez

Eriksen-Xabi-Gerrard

I doubt the Xabi transfer would have any bearing on Eriksen. The only thing I could think is the owners/BR possibly holding off on buying a young AM for another season if we were to gete Xabi. That would do two things:

1. Possibly allow us to qualify for the CL and attract a bigger prospect (hard to find, but they are out there)
2. Allow us to save money for a young AM.

It is no secret we need a young AM. Rodgers knows this. If we get Xabi this summer I can see him instead focusing on the CB situation more since our midfield would receive a world class player.

So in summary, regardless whether or not we get Xabi, a young attacking mid is in the cards whether it be this summer or next.

Anyone else a little worried about Sturridge's fitness? Maybe its just a little patch (dont know his injury history prior to LFC) and I'm over thinking it...

Still, I hope we bring in another quality striker... Other than a great work rate, I havent seen much in Borini that says anything more than squad player...
