Worst Liverpool Transfer - You’re All Wrong

Diouf is an inspiration to most Senegalese footballers of that age. Whether Mane would have played football without an idol like him, I obviously can't answer. I don't know him, never spoken to him. 

 

It was a slightly tongue in cheek comment because Diouf isn't well liked, but he is an idol to many. That part is true.

Diouf is a Senegal legend, no doubt.

 

Diouf is also a shit cunt and almost certainly our worst every signing, no matter how you measure it.

Diouf probably inspired Mane to start playing football. Just for that, he's not our worst signing.

Diouf was at his peak when Sadio was 9 or 10; he'd probably have kicked a ball and decided he liked it before then. Plus, of course, there were plenty of decent Senegalese players at that time.

Lallana was possibly our most important player from 2015-2017

I'm biased in that I can't fucking stand him.

 

Didn't want us to sign him, didn't like him when he played, don't like sick notes & couldn't wait for him to fuck off. £25m he was as well.

Led the press in Klopp’s first 6 months. Iconic goal v Norwich, big goals against Villarreal and Arsenal…

 

When he played he was good. He didn’t play enough. Belongs nowhere near this list.

He broke down every attack that went through him that first 6 months as well though. 
 

His best spell (and to be fair he was very good at times) was when he dropped back into midfield.

Maybe Keita playing a final season with Leipzig when he knew he’d be moving on did for him in some way mentally, in that he took his foot off the pedal and never got back to where he was previously. A really strange move in hindsight to announce a delayed transfer, as delighted as we all were at the time. Kids aside, how often do transfers like that actually happen?

 

Agree that big Adam Lallana shouldn’t be near this list, ridiculous fitness record notwithstanding. 

 

The whole Joe Cole thing was utterly depressing, perfectly fitting for where we were at the time. Sacking Benitez to bring in Hodgson while snubbing Kenny. Konchesky. Poulsen. Jovanovic. Christ.

Was it worse or better with his fuzz?

Good question that.

 

The facial hair covered a multitude of sins yet somehow sexualised the irritation levels. That's when the tone of my letters to him changed somewhat.

Adam deserves some credit for actually making a career in the game at least,and playing for some big teams. He's currently still playing for Dundee too.

How so? He clearly had some talent but he ‘wasted’ by being super unprofessional.

Negged for use of the word "super" although I agree with your point about Adam. Last time I saw him in the (ample) flesh, he was playing for Stoke and frowning into the Lower Kenny to see who had just shouted "Fucking hell, I thought vertical stripes were supposed to be slimming!"

Craig Bellamy on Charlie Adam....

There's a story from his time at Skoke where the players were training in a local park, maybe running not sure on the details, but there was a group of teenagers playing park football and they misshit it Adams way.

 

They shout for it back and he boots it over a fence in the opposite direction, proper belted it as far as he could, you can imagine how far the fat feckless fecker could kick a ball so it was proably a pain in the arse to get back.

 

He just ran off laughing...

Straight from the Neil Ruddock school of "Bantz".

I find that story very difficult to believe to be honest......

 

"He just ran off"?

 

Nah.....
