Anderson Off To Forest

There's been a lot of hype around Paul Anderson since he joined Liverpool, primarily because at the time the highly-rated John Welsh was sacrificed to get him. When he then played a key role in Liverpool's victory of the FA Youth Cup, the expectations balooned and they did so again when he went out on loan at Swansea where he was one of their best players as they won promotion to the Championship.

All of which has often led to calls to give him the opportunity to show his worth at Liverpool. But that doesn't look like it is going to happen as it seems that he is off to Nottingham Forest in a deal worth around £750,000.

Not that this was unexpected. Towards the end of last season, we had spoken to a number of Forest fans to get their views on Anderson and most said that, whilst they thought that he was a good player, they didn't think that he was good enough for Liverpool. A view that apparently Rafael Benitez seems to share.
