@elninorules Rumours from Marca journo's suggest £34m LFC bid for Kaka and £48m bid for Xavi

 

 

:whatever:

 

Haha

[Unrighteous]

Getting Suarez in and Babel off the wage bill at the same time would be great!

 

 

Agreed. Babel's chopped all his Liverpool stuff off his Twitter page too. So, there might actually be legs in this one.

 

 

Aquilani scored tonight against AC Milan in the last few minutes of the game.

 

Miss him :'(

 

How the fuck can you miss someone who rarely played? Dramaqueen.

[WaltonRed]

Phil Jones? He's the B'burn player, also injured till the summer so where we watching him, in the hospital?

[Dr Arthur De Sabre]

Van Bommel is a proper bastard, which our midfield is lacking. Still though, he's been around for ages and played in slower leagues, and I can't shake the feeling that he'd "do a Poulsen" (I know he's always been a better player, mind). The German league is better preparation than the Spanish and Italian, though.

 

Didi was never the quickest, but he could read the game, and did well for us into his 30's. Vb could do the same. The issue with poulsen is he appears to have the vision of mr magoo, he us constantly out of position and chasing shadows. Get the cunt down to specsavers.

Southampton teenager Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has edged closer to a £10m move to Arsenal after Saints manager Nigel Adkins said they would prefer him to go to a club that would nurture him properly.

 

Adkins said:’” We would only let him go to a club that would nurture him and treat him properly.

 

"There is going to be no auction for Alex. We love him and want to make him a better player.

 

"If, down the line, there is a bid we will do the right thing for Alex and not just sell him to the highest bidder.

 

"There has been a lot of speculation about him but Alex is our player and is playing with a smile on his face.’’

The good thing about ARsenal buying this lad, is that they won't be in for Hazard in the summer!

How is that hinting at an Arsenal move?! It's not like Walcott has made the most out of his talent so far.

[Unrighteous]

I'd love for us to 'rescue' Daniel Sturridge from Chelsea. He looks a player but Chelsea won't play him for some reason. Anelka and Drogba aren't exactly firing at all cylinders too.

 

Crazy.

 

His brace v. Ipswich means that he's got 6 goals in 5 FA Cup starts.

We look to be in for Romelu Lukaku as well.

 

From @BelgoFoot:

"Lukaku watch: In 'Het Laatste Nieuws' Van Holsbeeck says, re Liverpool, "We're aware something could move next week". Comolli is a fan."

 

Here is the article:

 

"Liverpool beraadt zich over bod op Lukaku" - Jupiler Pro League - HLN

 

And this was from @BelgoFoot last week:

 

"Lukaku watch: Belgian press (Le Soir) reports that Liverpool will make £22m offer for young striker next week."

 

There could be something in it, I guess.

 

By the way, apologies if it has already been posted on here.

[Randy Marsh]

I'm no fan of baseball but the news that they spent over $200m on a couple of players for the Red Sox a few months back is heartening. Let's hope they are willing to back us in the same manner. We've seen nothing up to now to suggest they won't.

[Wor Horse]

Stating the obvious here but there'll be a lot of activity while Henry's in the country.

I bet there is,in the formula1 hotel :whistle:

 

[PaulMcC]

Have we actually made a bid for Suarez or is it just rumours at this stage?

[Kopite Pete]

It was against Bari, his replacement scored for Liverpool today

 

I wonder If Aquilani would of bottled out of that challenge last weekend against the Mancs.

I would be surprised if we were in for both, especially without losing a few.

Fuck off with that.

that just wages. and both the players they signed are on 7 year contracts. actually 1 didn't sign yet, they traded for him, but he's expected to sign shortly.

[Kopite Pete]

Fuck off with that.

 

Why? Fair point.

[Unrighteous]

Why? Fair point.

 

No, actually, it isn't... it's a fucking snide shithouse comment about a player, who is nursing a knock on his ankle, and just scored against our rivals.

Raul didn't fully commit to the challenge with Rafael last week, I think he needs to be stronger in the tackle. Thats all I am saying. Would Aquilani with his injury record of done the same thing? who knows.

1000 posts :whistle:

I'm sorry, I didn't realise that we wanted our players to be on the receiving end of two-footed tackles. Fuck their bodies! They need to bleed for the club, right?!

 

Also, you haven't watched Aquilani much have you? Only Ryan Babel shits out of tackles more than he does...

Ye he would, he's a shithouse
