Brendan Rodgers has some more names in his magic envelopes, only this time it's not for the purpose of perfecting his David Brent impression. Emboldened by the canny signings of Daniel Sturridge and Philippe Coutinho in January, the Liverpool boss plans to tell his board that he needs even more new players in the summer if they're ever going to catch the "Manchester lot" and he'll get the guitar out if necessary. On his shortlist are Newcastle's Hatem Ben Arfa, Blackpool's Tom Ince, Paris St-Germain's Kévin Gameiro, Swansea's Ashley Williams and the Feyenoord defender Stefan de Vrij. The only stumbling block for Rodgers is Liverpool's board not understanding his presentation, which will be a heady mix of poetry, jazz and philosophy.
