De Kop - Should Liverpool add a player this January transfer's window, the one they should bring is a playmaker. Because playmaker is the missing link so far in the midfield area. The lost of Steven Gerrard in the early stages of the campaign showed that the replacement not well handed hold by Lucas Leiva nor Charlie Adam. It is still a question why Liverpool let Alberto Aquilani leaved Anfield to San Siro as he could bring new song to the Liverpool midfield rhythm.
In the era of Gerrard Houllier, Liverpool succeed to have rhythm in the midfield by entering Garry McAllister to be side by side with Steven Gerrard. McAllister could hold the ball and break the defense with his tremendous ball keeping as he also played a very good pass. McAllister could maintained the tempo while Steven Gerrard remained the most thread in the midfield area.
Later on Liverpool already had found the playmaker in the name of Xabi Alonso and Mascherano but both player were not satisfied by the management. So If ever Liverpool to stable and conquer the premier league they should bring a playmaker.
