You're actually comparing Clichy to KOLAROV?? Kolarov is a clueless person, and, as anon said, he just shoots hard and hopes in. He can't even make a decent pass! I highly rate Clichy as being MUCH better than Kolarov, Boateng, or that waste of time, JO. Oh, COME ON! You’re actually comparing Clichy to KOLAROV??

Clichy will offer more stability than Kolarov? At least Kolarov can tackle, he is sometimes out of position because he is allowed to venture forward (which is something that he is extremely good at). Ok, so Clichy is an attacking left-back also? how many goals did he score for aresonal? He crumbles in front of the goal and rarely hits a good cross like Kolarov does. The ONLY advantage Clichy has is his speed, that of which is not too much different to Kolarov. You are kidding me right? Clichy will offer more stability than Kolarov?

Unfortunately Kolarov is on the verge of becoming another expensive flop like JO. I believe we need two more signings. One in central mid-field to back up David Silva and a high caliber winger to add some needed width to the team. Adam, Milner and Shaun are good but they still a bit short of having the winger edge to make an impact much like Nani Clichy is an excellent signing who would finally bring stability to LB.

You're right that Jo won't be missed, although with the imminent departure of Tevez we could do with another striker to back up Balotelli and Dzeko, who are both prone to problems, be it tantrums or lack of form. My only disagreement with you is about Clichy. I challenge you to name 5 better left backs in the premier league at the moment. World class left-backs are incredibly rare, and I personally rate Clichy highly. As you diplomatically suggest, he can't be worse than Kolarov with regards defending, as Kolarov was clueless. He also has experience playing for a top club at the top level. I think he's a great buy. Anyone else worried about how strong Liverpool might be next year?
