Are Liverpool finally sorting out their defence? And another needless Arsenal target

Well, since Dejan Loven doesn't seem to be working out, Brendan Rodgers is just going to keep going until something sticks.

Balotelli says the same about playing up front. Liverpool are preparing a seizure of Tottenham's finest Belgian import, Jan Vertonghen.  The Anfield club have been porous at the back again this season and they've grown that desperate that Kolo Toure has been recalled and starring.  A big-money signing like Vertonghen could just be what they need though.. to replace Suarez.  (Mail Online) After Arsene Wenger took an absolute pelting of abuse from Arsenal fans as he boarded the bus at the Stoke game, he seems to have gotten the message.  Whilst he couldn't make it out exactly through all the effing and blinding, Wenger has rationed that the Gunners supporters were roaring at him to congratulate the defensive display at the Britannia.  So he's going to splash €25m on Roma striker, Mattia Destro.  (The Sun) Meanwhile, Tottenham Hotspur boss Mauricio Pochettino is reported to be lining up an ambush of his old club, Southampton.  The Londoners are linked with both Morgan Schneiderlin and Jay Rodriquez who are looking at the rumours having a good scoff with themselves as they focus on chasing Champions League dreams instead of worrying about hanging on to a top half spot.  Sergio Aguero might as well be linked with Villa (okay, it's not that bad).  (Daily Mirror) The Daily Mirror are also reporting that Sunderland will once again make Liverpool forward Fabio Borini their main target in January.  After all, there's only so many times a man can sit behind Mario Balotelli and just accept it. A 'keeper is leaving Chelsea.  But, no, it's not Cech and it's certainly not Courtois.  Mark Schwarzer could be on his way to Newcastle.  Frustrated at playing third string at Stamford Bridge, he will move north and be the Magpies' second choice.  (The Sun) The most exciting news this morning though is 'Arry Redknapp getting the cheque book ready for another wheelin' and deali... sorry, football managing* session (never make that mistake).  The QPR boss is being linked with an entire country.  It's said that Rangers are ready to bring a number of MLS players on loan to Loftus Road during the American off-season with Robbie Keane right at the top of Hazza's list.  Robbie Keane won four player of the year awards at Tottenham, you know?  (Setanta)
