It is fair to say that Kenny Dalglish’s summer signings never exactly led to much over excitement from redsfans, but one thing they certainly have done is improve the overall quality within the squad. Whereas a year ago, we were bemoaning the fact that Raul Meireleswas the only summer signing that could call himself a success, this year there a few contenders for best new addition to the squad.Arguably the best of the summer signings are Jose Enrique and Charlie Adam. Failing to sign a player would usually be a negative thing but reading Gael Clichy’s interview recently where he stated that he chose Manchester City over Liverpool made me appreciate what his failed capture led to for us. In my opinion, Liverpool have arguably the best left back in the league in the shape of Jose Enrique, and the scary thing is, there’s room for him to improve.
The Spaniard’s speed, strength and determined attitude have made him a hit with the Kop and I believe it’s only a matter of time before he is called up to the Spain national squad where the left back slot is actually one of their weaker positions. For his sake I’m hopeful that he makes enough of an impression this season to land himself a place in Spain’s Euro 2012 squad, where the experience would no doubt benefit the former Newcastle man.
