Ya, i can imagine Arbeloa, Alonso, Reina and even Aurelio, Sissoko and Mascherano leaving but Torres shld be staying.

We need to talk to agents and sign players now. If we don’t we will lose targets and need to do something in the summer which would be far more expensive. Hopefully it will be resolved because we want the best for the club.
“That means to sign players like (Andriy) Voronin, or to sign players like the two options we have at this moment.”
Benitez traced the present impasse back to his most recent meeting with the American owners last month, and added: “It was really, really positive, but after this meeting it was a surprise to me that something changed. I tried to explain my ideas and they told me to keep focusing on the team because Rick Parry is in charge of buying and selling players, so okay, we will see.
“I’m sure Mr Hicks knows what I want. I have a very good squad and want to improve the squad. I didn’t talk about money – I was thinking about bringing money back in, we have brought £26million back this year.
“I don’t think the situation is serious but we do need to get it sorted soon.”
With heightened tension in the corridors of power at Anfield, Benitez made a pointed remark about the club’s fans by saying: “I am focusing on training and winning games for my supporters.”
Certainly, the prospect of Benitez being dismissed from his position has been met with an outcry from the majority of Liverpool supporters over the weekend.
Having lifted the European Cup in 2005, the FA Cup 12 months later and reached another Champions League final in May, the Spaniard has become a massively popular figure with the club’s followers.
Benitez’s name was chanted during the 3-0 victory at Newcastle United on Saturday, and a huge protest in support of the manager is being planned by fans at Wednesday’s Champions League game against Porto at Anfield.

1 of the player Benitez want is Kaladze, not sure whether is a free transfer or a 4m signing, he wanted to sign him to cover for our central defenders just in case someone get injured, nth wrong with it imo.
