Jamie Carragher's shoulder injury sustained against Spurs on Sunday will keep the centre-back out
until at least March leaving Roy with some thinking to do.
In a bid to strengthen a rather light defensive outfit, Hodgson will look to splash the cash on
Bolton's highly rated Gary Cahill. A bid upwards of roughly £12million should be enough to get
Bolton's attention.
Liverpool is reportedly monitoring Malaga defender Ivan Gonzalez with a view to a potential January
move.
The Spanish centre back has been on the Anfield radar for some time, with Liverpool chief scout
Eduardo Macia reportedly watching the player from before Rafael Benitez's time at the club.
Reports in December 2009 claimed that the Reds were set to bid on the player last January, and the
speculation has resurfaced despite the change of manager on Merseyside.

No doubt thanks to this infernal snow, transfer gossip is a little thin on the ground this
morning so hearty thanks must go out to the Daily Mirror and their bumper
seven-pronged doozy of a rumour.
After 17 months of unswerving loyalty, the Mirror are claiming that nigh-on-unlovable Manchester
City striker Emmanuel Adebayor is ready to 'dig in his heels' and force a January
loan move to Tottenham.
