LIVERPOOL SWOOP FOR JONES Liverpool manager Gerard Houllier has moved to ease his goalkeeping problems by signing Southampton's Paul Jones on a one-month loan. Jones told Liverpool's official club website www.liverpoolfc.tv: "It's been a pretty hectic 24 hours for me. "I got a phone call from Gordon Strachan telling me that Liverpool were interested and he told me to think it over. It didn't take me long to decide I wanted to come here. "This move is a dream come true. The deal is only for a month but from my point of view it's a month at one of the biggest clubs in Europe, if not the world. “It was too good an opportunity for me to turn down and I know I'd have regretted it for the rest of my life if I'd not come here. “Whether I play one game, two games or whatever, I am just relishing the chance to play a part here. "I've been a Liverpool fan all my life so to be here really is a dream for me. I grew up in the Shrewsbury area with a lot of other Liverpool fans and we used to watch the games on the television or listen on the radio. "I've always followed their results and I've always enjoyed playing at Anfield. It'll be nice to have the fans behind me now and not against me." Jones will wear the number 12 shirt but has not been given any indication as to whether he or Luzi will start against Aston Villa as Liverpool look to build on the morale-boosting win at Stamford Bridge. "I think the result at Chelsea will have given everyone a huge boost and hopefully that can spur us on to go and get that fourth place in the league," said Jones. "I'll do all I can in the time I'm here to help the club get as many good results as possible. "I've only been here a few hours but I can see that there is a great spirit within the squad. “All the lads have been very friendly to me and very welcoming. I'm really looking forward to the next few weeks. "Of course, being here during January means I miss out on the chance of a permanent move somewhere during the transfer window, but if I do the business here then hopefully in the summer time people will have taken notice of me and maybe something can happen. For now I'm just going to enjoy the challenge at Liverpool." source: premierleague.com
