Judging from last night's performance, it wouldn't be very formidable. Morientes was extremely poor, and Cisse not much better. Owen said yesterday that he wants to come back to Anfield, and that if not he'd go to Newcastle, but only on a one year loan. But Newcastle want him to sign on a permanent deal. I don't know why we haven't asked for him on loan, at least.
On my way home from the match last night, I heard Benitez interviewed on local radio. They asked him straight out about Michael Owen, and said 'Will you be making a bid?' He just replied 'We have 6 good strikers here.' I don't agree with the 6 part at all, but at least he didn't say no. And there's still a week until the transfer deadline, too.
