Liverpool Manager Brendan Rogers has spoken about his desire to sign a top class striker to partner Daniel Sturridge to help fire his Liverpool side to the premier league title.
Liverpool lost out winning their first premier league crown by only a couple of point last season curtesy of an end to the season to forget and Rogers is keen to make amends this time round.
Luis Suarez has come and gone and his 30+ goals of last season need replacing, a win of Southampton at the weekend papered over the cracks but if Liverpool are to challenge for the title and in the champions league Rogers must buy a suitable replacement for the Uruguayan.
“I do still think we need another striker,” Rodgers said. “It is something that we will look at but that will depend on the availability of one. Sunday was about winning and we got there.
“So we will search for that through to the end of the window but you see the players, the quality that we have.”
Liverpool face champions Manchester City on Monday night and the reds will rely heavily on Sturridge if they are to pick up points at the Etihad, Rogers is all to aware his front line needs bolstering ahead of the long campaign.
Our ambitions here at Liverpool have to be bigger than one player, big clubs lose big players and our ambitions are bigger than Luis.
Liverpool have been linked with Cavani, Falcao, Lavezzi to name a few and there was also a failed attempt at signing Loic Remy after the QPR player failed a medical.
