AGGER AGREES NEW REDS DEAL

[Herp McDerp]

Did anyone actually hate him? I saw people expressing the opinion that no player was bigger than the club, or that they didn't think he was as good as he was cracked up to be, but not hate.

 

 

Was called a cunt, touting cunt, told to fuck off etc... Just read through the other Agger thread.

no more than any other player gets from time to time...just the way this place is.

Does this mean that everyone will now love him and rate him again?

 

He's turned into Baresi these past few weeks now Skrtel is "shit"

[Paul]

Pleasently surprised. He just needs to stay fit and focus on his football now all this is out the way. He's an excellent but thus far largely unfulfileld talent.

 

Could not agree more. How many truly great games has he had for us? The only one I can think of is the one a couple of seasons ago when he dealt brilliantly with Drogba after having been bullied mercilessly by him in the previous game. There's no doubt that he has wonderful potential, but I want to see it fulfilled. His fitness record is very poor - and I seem to remember Pete saying that that was also the case before he joined us. If he's fit and in-form then this is a great deal; if not, it could be a very expensive one though. However, at least a new contract means we can sell for a good price if things don't go the way we'd like.

[Antynwa]

Very surprised, and happy about it.

 

Although I don't think he is as good as people say he is, or crucial to our future as well, It's a good move and hopefully in the future Skrtel and Agger can actually form a solid partnership.

 

I still however believe Carragher is our best defender and whoever says he is losing it is chatting immense piles of bullshit.

[Rex Banner]

Great news I'm a big fan of his if he can stay fit he'll be great.

It's good to have this done before the end of the season as well, we're getting all our players signed up so all the focus can be on getting our targets over the summer.

Carragher Hoofstheball

[Lurtz]

I didn't know about this til I just read it on the offal. Made up, me. I appreciate he's got a lot to prove but we've seen flashes of how good the lad is and now we know he's committed enough to stay and fight for his place. The guy's taken a lot of stick lately, not least from some regulars on here and this proves there's been no need for any of it. This sends out a good message too, from both the manager and the player. My only fear is that this might mean the end for Xabi.

Agger's agent was quoted on Danish tv just now saying he was surprised to see the story about the contract agreement. As far as he is concerned they're far from signing anything.

Surely the club would not release a story until they were completely sure that everything was sorted?

 

Anyway, he has been excellent today.

I repeat, he has not signed anything. They've only agreed parts of the contract - I think how many years it's going to run.

[Funkasy]

his agent claims the contract is not signed yet...

[Crazyhorse7778]

Carragher Rolls, skips then Hoofstheball

 

Fixed.

[mjlfc09]

Maybe we are out pens, We could borrow one from the mancs. They get pens for nothing.

[Red Phoenix]

Awesome stuff this, I thought he really was off too. Sami's gone but with Agger we're still pretty much ok in defence, but if he'd have gone too we'd be in a seriously dodgy position. Hopefully he'll go on to be our best defender, and also help us rip teams to bits when we go on the attack too.

 

Now if we can just keep Alonso and build on this, (and have better luck with injuries.) things have the chance of being truly amazing next year.

[Hazel Motes]

Fixed.

 

Repped for being Green Man.

I'm really Nightman.

 

EDIT: Sorry, couldn't rep you just yet. But just stay with that avatar and wait for it.

[Roy Hobbs]

Very surprised, and happy about it.

I suspect carra could die of old age on the pitch in front of your very eyes and you would spit chips if Rafa subbed him.;)

[ToxtethTerror]

He spoke to the Echo today - he has more or less signed as far as I am concerned.

 

"We are close now and of course I would be happy to stay at Liverpool because it is what I’ve been working for for the last few years,” he said.

 

“I haven’t signed yet but we have agreed some things and we are close.

 

“Everybody has been in this kind of situation and you know how hard it can be.

 

“So that has been frustrating but I have kept on working and we are close now.

 

“It’s important as a player to have the faith of your manager because if you don’t have that then you’re probably not at the right club.”

 

[the walsh]

best centre half at the club imo dont get me wrong carra is a legend and he keeps us going when we need it just think when agger is fit he has got everything great news

It's still a huge embarrassment for the club. Even if they never said he'd actually signed it.

Any idea why the club decided to announce Kuyt, Gerrard, Agger agreeing to sign, if as you say, they don't say the contratcs has actually been signed?

[Tom R]

I'm gonna steer clear of the fact that I think he's generally a bit of a dick as it's his ability that really matters.

 

I'm relatively pleased that he MIGHT be staying, but only because we're light on quality at CB generally, especially now Sami has gone. I emphasise MIGHT, because as Pete has said he's signed fuck all yet. If I had a pound for every time a player of ours came out saying they were "close" to signing, and then didn't, then I'd have at least four or five pounds in my sky rocket by now!

 

Daniel Agger is probably the most over rated player I can ever remember playing for us.

So many people bang on about him like he's the new Alan Hansen. All he's shown so far, for me, is that he's the new Half Decent Centre Back. Nothing more.

 

In fact, I'd actually say he's been a big disappointment for what we paid for such a young defender with such a big reputation.

 

"He has awesome potential blah blah blah ", I keep hearing.

He's 26 this year! Not being funny, but he should be showing us a hell of a lot more, and a hell of a lot more often, than he has done.

When Jamie Carragher was 26/27 he was embarassing some of the world's greatest players and putting in man of the match performances on an almost weekly basis, and was winning us European Cups.

 

Verdict: Over hyped half decent centre back.

LFC in embarassing incompetence shocker.

[ToxtethTerror]

Totally disagree Tom. For the record he is 24, 25 in December. Agger is a more accomplished footballer than Carragher at the same age but opinions are like arseholes.

[Tom R]

"stop fucking moaning, you twat. all deals are signed in the summer."

 

Dingle, cheers for the rep that went with this, you total fucking retard.
