Danny bleeding Murphy

[dennis tooth]

He was a poor mans Riquelme

[cochcaer]

I always liked him. He was versatile, had a goal in him, good at deadballs, but his long passing was better than his short.

[murphy]

Was an underrated player for us Murphy. Not the greatest player in the world but he had a touch of genuine class about him and was unfortunate to be the whipping boy of the time for our fans.

[Tony Edwards]

Murphy's a Fulham player. He should mind his own bloody business, and keep his views on LFC to himself.

[RoboRiise]

To be fair, Danny's quote still stands today. I'd love an English manager who actually knows something about the culture and history of our club because the current one doesn't.

 

 

I know what you mean but you could take the word English out of that sentence and it would be just as true as far as I'm concerned.

[Delmar]

I have just one word for Murphy. Comolli...

We actually had someone who fit the profile (apart from the English bit of course). The problem was, he allowed himself to get sidetracked even though things off the field were less than tip-top, and too often displayed a stubborn streak where it was not required. He wasn't here to make friends, but he ended up collecting quite a few enemies along the way. There is no English manager today who fits the profile, and that is a major oversight by the previous board when selecting the new incumbent.

Murphy wasn't good enough for Liverpool first 11, would have been a nice back up player and he's been bitter about it ever since.

Well exactly, but the irony is: the manager who Murphy ran to Bascombe in January to say Liverpool needed to get rid of, understood the club far better than the Englishman we now have in charge.

 

I couldn't really care where our manager comes from, though, as long as he's up to the job.

[Guest Pistonbroke]

He was a steady enough player without being special, still better in his time with us than half the shite we've spunked money on.

We're talking liquidation here.

Josemi and Nunez weren't good enough either.

[George Costanza]

don't like the murphy bashing. he was a decent player for us made even better with his winning goals against the scum. he's wrong about hodgson but he still should be regarded well amongst Liverpool supporters.

[stringvest]

I've never rated Murphy as a player, but it does appear that he has played well for Fulham on occasion.

[Spartacus]

Thank Christ the little shit never played in Istanbul. We'd have been mullered.

[SammyAftershave]

[Fugitive]

He used to piss me off with the amount of times he'd give away possession with a poor pass.

[diamondjoe]

Always had a soft spot for Spud Murphy, but in fairness he's talking through his hole.

I for one will ceratinly be a lot happier this christmas if santa delivers Roy to the knackers yard, wherein he'll be humanely put out of his face rubbing misery by one of those thingmajigs that lad out of No country for old Men had.

Indeed.

It's called a bolt gun. Oddly enough they were often used on cattle prior to incineration when the authorities tried to control the BSE outbreak, otherwise known as Mad Cow Disease.

[Guest ShoePiss]

Josemi and Nunez weren't good enough either.

 

We had Didi, Alonso, Gerrard so Danny wasn't going to get much of a look in and wanted more first team football, he good enough to replace any of those above. No big slight as they were/are all great players but he simply wasn't good enough.

 

Spurs wouldn't even guarantee him first team football at the time so he joined Charlton.

 

The fact that Josemi and Nunez were shit is irrelevant here.

And Murphy going allowed us to bring in Garcia. Owen going allowed us to bring in Alonso, as with us not being able to get out of the Cisse transfer we had to sell to buy that summer.

 

Something the revisionists would do well to remember.

[Ynwa20]

I thought he played well enough for us down the years and the winners against Utd in particular ensure he stays thought about positively in my book! My gripe is Roy's spending time making sure he doesn't dominate. In a game where Gerrard and Torres will feature and to some extent Meireles and Cole, we shouldn't be worried about stopping Murphy, Murphy and Fulham should be sleepless with worry that Stevie or Nando will destroy them!

[RedinSweden]

I like Murphy, but Roy should not be making out he is some sort of Messi type player. It is embarrassing. Roy needs to can it. I dread his pre and post match comments.
