Liverpool: Offers Could Be Considered

If tabloids reports are accurate Rafa has admitted for the first time that he has some concerns over the Liverpool futures of Fernando Torres and Steven Gerrard.

Offers for the Reds' most prized assets are thought to have never been in question however the Spaniard has for the first time intimated that offers would be considered, as he explained:

'We would have a conversation and decide what's the best for the club.

'I've said before I want to keep the best players here because that means we can be closer to the top four. They are the most important.

'We gave extensions to players because we want to keep the squad together.

'If you ask any manager in the world they will tell you they want more money and want to spend but at this moment we have to do what's best for the club.

'That means managing the situation for each player and see what happens.'

In my honest opinion Rafa is just giving a worst case scenario answer to a question which has no doubt been manipulated to suit those that have published it and this is most likely a realistic worst case scenario that we'll have to hope, and I do believe, that we will avoid.

Should Rafa be forced to sell these players, due to finances, then I can't see that he'd be willing to hang around but I'm confident that it'll not come to this anyway.
