Soccernet is reporting that Liverpool have signed Andriy Voronin, who will arrive from Bayer Leverkusen on a free (Bosman) transfer in the summer. Voronin, a 27 year old Ukrainian, is good, if not amazing. What it does mean, however, is that a striker is leaving the club at the end of the season. Soccernet seems to think that it’s Fowler whose Anfield days are over, but I don’t think it should be seen as a definitive fact just yet. When you’ve got a few extra ducats lying around like Liverpool do, you never know who is going to be gracing your club with their presence and it’s not particularly worthwhile for Benitez to have all those robot jokes bouncing around the locker room for the 150th time if he can avoid it. So maybe Peter Crouch is going to Juventus, maybe Fowler is out, or maybe both. Neither would be a bad move on Liverpool’s part, not if they now have a guy who doesn’t even care where the ball is, he just wants to kick it (see above picture). Though, everyone would miss this (warning: 151st robot joke!).
