You got the last two backwards. You see, one consistently scores 30+ goals a season, the other ranges from 10-18 (at best).

 

the one is, 47, mercenary cunt who doesn't care and does fuck all on the pitch when it really matters. Falcao would be decent, not great, because he'd cost too much, he's 29, he does not press, he needs good fullbacks to flourish and I doubt BR will play Manquillo-Moreno soon. Balotelli is still young, could learn a lot from BR & Peters. World-class talent in Kim Kardashian's brain.

Loads of which are penalties.

 

An oft-overlooked but important point is that Balotelli is Italian and they just do not settle in at Liverpool thanks to either injuries, lack of quality or lack of heart, or often all three. Balotelli needs mollycoddling and it's detrimental to the rest of the team. Signing him would also continue our trend of signing the wrong players the season after finishing as runners-up.

 

Falcao might well have his heart set on a move to Madrid but I would be persistent in showing our interest in doing a deal, in the hope that this persistence will show how keen we are to seal a deal and that Falcao could be a key component of our side. Madrid don't need to show this sort of persistence as they rely on the pull of their name and their glamour factor to sway players, and they are happier still if the player burns his bridges with his existing club to force a move. Even then, it's just another superstar to them.

Poor bastard, I worked there for 18 months, it really is a hellhole. Remmie will attest.

 

 

Remmie is from Milton Keynes. Bolton is like Florence to him. 

 

Bolton is Horendi. *Shudders*

 

Milton Keynes and Florence are ace.

BR put manquillo straight in and Johnson has been consistently our worst player so why wouldn't we play Moreno soon as? Regardless of full backs we create chances , falcao would get plenty of service in our system.

 

Anyway, balotelli doesn't press in fact he doesn't even put much effort in attacking at times... So that's not a differentiating point. also balotelli is 24, not a youngster any more. Finally you always take "world.class player" ahead of "world class potential" every day of the week when you want to win things. This is a vital season. Missing out on CL would be a disaster, an effective mercenary like falcao would be ideal as it fills a need.

 

Balotelli is, at best, a high risk project.

French radio station RMC, reported via the Metro, suggests Rodgers will use an expensive temporary move for Falcao to provide Liverpool with leverage while trying to land the Colombian permanently. "Rodgers is offering a £12 million loan fee with Liverpool also keen to insert a clause meaning they can sign him for £31 million next summer," reads Metro's translation.

I'd buy that for 51.4 million dollars.

Their owner just got divorced and a Swiss court ordered him to pay a record £2.6bn as a settlement, he's tightening the purse strings as a result.

And there are some people who think Frank Malony's mad to have his own bollocks chopped off to become a women.

One of the things that Brendan has created at the club is a great team spirit. Everyone looks together. To potentially jeopardise that, by signing someone who we've seen cause so many problems first hand at Man City, is fucking madness. It also screams "desperate".

It's one of those deals that could go either way. We've got a young hungry squad that have trained with Suarez for 3 years, and seen the kind of intensity and work ethic he brought to training. Young players like Coutinho and Sterling saw that and followed suit and now they are getting their rewards for that hard work.

 

Balotelli could be a destabilising influence on that discipline and work ethic we've created and could impart a lazy attitude on others, or alternatively he could be swept up in that mindset and change his career for the better, becoming the world class player he's hinted at becoming, it's a toss up.

Falcao minus a dodgy knee if we could get him on loan or permanent would be a coup. Alas we probably have more chance of signing his big nosed cousin Mark.

Balotelli would always be a gamble but if he came good it would give us amazing options. Just imagine our Blue friends foaming at the mouth the minute he so much as farts on the pitch.

 

" erd dat Balatellys got 6 kids to 8 different birds an he smokes crack in Tocky wid Purple Aki "
