Liverpool spent over # 100m on new players in 2011 and Dalglish and director of football Damien Comolli have been committed to purchasing youthful players in order to build for the future and Sinclair certainly fits the bill in that respect and the top four chasers may feel they can tempt
the Swansea City man to consider a move, especially as he has less than 18 months left to run on his current contract.
The fact that Sinclair can play out wide will also interest Dalglish who will feel that the adaptable
Swansea City man can add an extra direct dimension to an attack that has struggled to break down opposition sides, managing just 24 goals in 21 Premier League matches.
Undoubtedly the bargain buy of the summer
the Swansea City man has more than paid back the # 1.6 m investment made in him by his South Wales employers.

Swansea City man hit the back of the net ten times in 26 games for the Giallorossi, which originally earned him the transfer to Merseyside.

The Gunners are up to third and now sit just two points off the leaders

Swansea City next up in the Premier League, there is plenty for us to be happy and optimistic about.

City and

We've spent 14 days of the transfer window trying to negotiate peanuts for a player that MAY but equally MAY NOT be the next midfield beast we need meanwhile

Swansea, I hear people on here talking about Wanyama and we could have got him prior to his move to Southampton, there's talk of Dybala who will undoubtedly go to either

I could also argue that if Arsenal had not conceded one goal more goal against Hull
City, One at home against Tottenham, one away to Leisceter, one away to
man united, one more at home against Man City, and two away to Swansea (a total of seven goals), Arsenal could have become champions last seas

Southampton: 15 and 7 Liverpool: 22 and 5
Man City: 19 and 3 WH: 20 and 4 TH: 21 and 3
Swansea: 18 and 8
Man U: 23 and 2
Lucky to draw at Everton (Defense), 2 pts lost Tied away to newly promoted Leicester (Defense), 2 pts lost Should have beaten
City @ Home (Defense), 2 pts lost Tied at home to an even sh *** er Spurs (Defense), 2 pts lost Why even show up at Stamford Bridge as we can't beat a Mourinho Chelsea team (Defense), 3 pts lost Tied @ home to Hull SERIOUSLY (Defense), 2 pts lost Allowed
Swansea to comback when we're leading (Defense), 3 pts lost
Man Utd's worst side ever beat us @ HOME (Defense), 3 pts lost and BIGGEST JOKE SO FAR We all know what happened at Stoke... (Defense) and most recently tied away to weaker Liverpool team when we had the lead and conceded in injury time with more than half our team being defensive players at the time, (Defense)
So by that analysis Chelsea, Sotn, L'Pool, WH and
Swansea appear over reliant on, and thus «overplaying», more players than us,
Man City and TH the same with only
Man U (in abnormal circumstances) one less.
And we have given 2 or more starts to more different players than Chelsea,
Man City and
Swansea.
With the surprise result we've seen today at Anfield where
Swansea City wreak a havoc there today's afternoon against Liverpool to record the most against the form book away win there and ran away with all the three points at stake in the game, and also with the Stoke
City attempts to end
Man Utd 8 match unbeaten run in all matches but for Wayne Rooney's audacious last gap free kick equaliser that save Utd from bluses.
Final result: Chelsea,
Man City,
Swansea, the Saints are out.
