Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain

.

To me he looked injured.

Isn't that part of the problem? Spending so much on a proven sicknote who isn't even all that great?

[Jockey]

Christ give the guy a chance.

 

A lot thought Firmino and Lallana were shit when they first started playing for us.

 

Now give him a year or so at least

 

They will give players they wanted to sign a chance! 

 

 

I think most people that had seen Firmino play were really happy we were signing him.

 

 

See. 

[El Rojo]

Joe Cole 2.0

 

Christ. Worst thing ever said about anybody on here. Always new depths.

[Grinch]

They will give players they wanted to sign a chance! 

 

 

 

 

See. 

 

Given good footballers who've proved their worth more a chance than someone that's been shit for seven years at one of the most televised clubs in England.

 

Shocking stuff.

[Jockey]

Shocking stuff.

 

Just so we are clear. 

 

That is your opinion. And as it stands, you are some bloke. 

[VladimirIlyich]

Isn't that part of the problem? Spending so much on a proven sicknote who isn't even all that great?

Yep.

Maybe this is the reason we only buy these types of injury prone players,things like wages and possible insurance costs etc?

[JustTosh]

Give the cunt a chance that's what I say.  

 

Yeah, let's give him time. If he works hard we might see him reach the dizzy hights of mediocrity.

[Pureblood]

He's no Joe Cole.  Cole was slow, injured and shit when Purslow signed him.

 

The Ox is on an upward curve.

[Jairzinho]

Just so we are clear.

 

That is your opinion. And as it stands, you are some bloke.

In which case, who cares?

[TheHowieLama]

Some bloke on the internet

[Jockey]

In which case, who cares?

 

See above! 

[Jairzinho]

He'll be disappointed if he looks at that.

[INTORRESTING]

Maybe give him more than 1 game

[Russ Atmosphere]

Failure to 'give them a chance' on a forum results in any player being shipped out forthwith.

THE LIVERPOOL WAY LADS,

THEY HAVE THEIR DOUBTS THOUGH,

I'M STILL DREAMIN'

OF WINNIN' TITLES WITH OXO. 

[Mr T]

Joe Cole 2.0?

 

Better one would be Jermaine Pennant 2.0, although Pennant had a better injury record.

You Won't Believe What These 15 Awful Liverpool Signings Are Doing Now.

 

Number 4 Will Shock You!!!

[Thoth]

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has reassured Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain he has not made a mistake in coming to Anfield.

The 24-year-old left Arsenal in a £35million deal on deadline day but has so far been restricted to just 57 minutes in three substitute appearances, having previously started all four matches for the Gunners and also two for the national team. Right now, his signing looks a tad pointless.

However, the England international has been given the time to adjust to his new surroundings and Klopp’s methods and will make his first start at Leicester in the Carabao Cup.

“I thought it made complete sense for Alex to change club and to come here,” said the Reds boss.

“He has settled in perfectly. He knew at least all the England players and a few others.

“He is a really nice lad so it is easy for him to settle into a new team. He knows the situation.

“He played all the games for Arsenal from the beginning and now he comes here and is on the bench so it looks, ‘Oh, not the best decision’, but it is long-term thing.

“We want to use him and to prepare him also. It is all good from this side at the moment.”

Klopp dismissed suggestions Oxlade-Chamberlain’s development had been stunted at Arsenal.

However, he hoped to bring out more in a player whom he believes was still growing under Arsene Wenger’s leadership.

“A new start is very often a kind of relief, that’s how it is,” he added.

“You are in a situation with your old club – and I don’t say this about Alex specifically – and you accept it and it is difficult to make the next step.

“Arsenal changed a lot since Arsene is there. I am sure they didn’t always play with three at the back and with wing-backs and so Alex played in different positions when he was there.

“It is the highest quality if you can play in different positions in the Premier League. That says a lot about you.

“The judgement from outside may be that you don’t develop but playing different positions is development.

“Probably when Alex was 18 or 19 people thought he would be ‘the man’ – as people think a lot of times pretty early – and immediately you put a rucksack on their back. That makes development not easy.

“He’s at a perfect age and is still able to make big steps.”

Klopp will also give first starts of the season to third-choice goalkeeper Danny Ward and midfielder Marko Grujic among a raft of changes as he juggles four matches in 11 days.

[magicrat]

Have we exercised our rights under the 28 day cooling off period yet?

[smilezzz]

Have we exercised our rights under the 28 day cooling off period yet?

Fear of injuries due to said excercise prevents us from doing so.

[Dave D]

He'll be fucking brilliant next year.

 

 

 

For West Ham.

He wishes he signed Macguire doesn't he?

Remorse.

Rationalisation.

Acceptance.

[Boss]

The purpose of having players like Milner and Chamberlain is their versatility. As soon as they start demanding where they play and refusing to play certain positions, it defeats the very purpose of having them in the first place.

 

Klopp needs to tell the pair of them, in no uncertain terms, you'll play where you're told to play. 

[Bobby Hundreds]

I didn't want him but he's here now let's give him a chance.

[billypilgrimnz]

I didn't want him but he's here now let's give him a chance.

But if I rail on and on about how shit he is now, think how smug I can be when proven right? And if I turn out wrong, I can gladly shrug my shoulders and solemnly intone "I'm glad I was wrong because it's all about the team and you should just be happy he's good instead of trying to dredge up old arguments, you losers".

 

Win-win, I say!
