No need for panic buys

LFC new manager, Roy Hodgson, says he will not be rushed in to buying players even though the Reds start their EURO campaign in a week or sos time. He said:
"I don't think deadlines are realistic, it takes time to get the people you want and the most important thing is getting the people you want".
"If you can do things quickly then that's great because you have them in but if it takes time, it takes time.
"It would be nice to have someone in before the deadline but it's pretty unrealistic and I can't see it happening.
"We need to strengthen at both ends and we need to have some very good young players that are really worth working with for the future, so we can hopefully start producing a few more Gerrards, Carraghers, Owens and Fowlers.
"We need to strengthen at the top end as well and someone like Joe Cole is very important in that respect, and I hope he won't be the last one."

I cant believe a man of his experience would of let all the leftback options depart before having at least one replacement lined up if he had any say in it.
Masch is another case, it seems pretty obvious someone has had a word in his ear and now he is trying to force Liverpool to sell him before Hodgson has even spoke to him.
If I was Hodgson I would be saying Masch can go but at 30m, no more no less.
We had all this palava with Masch last pre-season and it is a bit tiresome.
