Hodgson wants money to spend

Liverpool manager Roy Hodgson has admitted he would like to have money to spend before the transfer window closes.

The Reds have already signed the likes of Joe Cole, Christian Poulsen, Brad Jones, Danny Wilson, Milan Jovanovic and Jonjo Shelvey this summer.

“I’d like some money to spend if I could research where that money could be spent wisely,” said Hodgson.

“Giving me a lot now and telling me to go out and buy some players with one week of the transfer window left would not be particularly advantageous.

“I’ve only been here for five weeks or so and I’d want to make sure I had assessed absolutely everyone, including those at the academy, just in case we have an outstanding 17-year-old.

“We might have a Javier Hernandez there so I don’t want to go out and spend £50million on buying another one.”
