Houllier happy with transfer developments

The Reds have been linked with a whole host of players in recent weeks but it is known that Houllier is focusing upon bringing Damien Duff, Steven Finnan and Djibril Cisse to Anfield. The battle to sign such talents begins in earnest this sunday when the transfer window is officially opened.

Houllier said: "The market is pretty flat at the moment but we are working hard behind the scenes and I am happy with how things are developing."
