Big Sami - Class !

[bigjohn]

Great to hear that big Sami is still showing his Legend status. How I wish we could have a young Hyypia in our team again. Bayer Leverkusen had Ballack refuse to go to a match because he did not want to be on the bench...Sami was ill but still wanted to be there even if only as sub.

Jupp Heynckes said of Sami -

"He is a fantastic professional and I have never had anybody like him."

Greatest center back we have had since Hansen. A true LFC legend.

[WaltonRed]

He'll be back one day

[PaulMcC]

I can't wait for him to come back.

[Kozel9]

I can't wait for him to come back.

 

Was going to write that. Big Sami is a true legend.

[RedinSweden]

Great bloke.

[viking]

Total LFC legend...Love to see him back at Liverpool in some capacity.

My favourite red man from the last ten years, in the company of some genuine legends. What a career he had with us. A fucking giant who never gave a moments thought to anything other than the well being of the club.

Such a shame he felt forced out. He should still be here. The word legend is overused, but Sami truly deserves the epithet.

The shame is that you have to taint every fucking post, Sami left to continue playing games at a decent level, he was offered the chance to stay but wanted to play more games. Fair play he left with his head held high, and great thanks, and has gone on to play far more games than he would have expected here.

[grazywalker]

Via work I had the chance to speak to him over the phone . I just could not do it though.I would have been stuttering all over it and any professionalism would have gone right out of the window .

"Sami, you big fuckin leg , you are ace . Huuuuh huuhh"

Not ideal

All true, but you shouldn't discount the effect that being excluded for Philipp Degen for the CL squad had on Sami. He was livid. His father Jouko told me this. Or is this "tainting" the post too?

 

As i said, he should still be here.

[Tommy Lawrence]

A great red,Sami,really hope he comes back to us one day.

No one "tells" you anything, you're a loser who is also a compulsive liar.

Ah, t'internet must have been restored at the asylum, eh Momo?

 

Pathetic.

I'm sorry dude, but the fella shouldn't still be here, certainly not as a player, great servant though Sami was, we cannot afford to hang onto players for what they were. Being livid at being left out for Degen is fair enough, but Sami wanted more games and moved on, fair play to him, he could have sat back and collected a wage and played less, but wanted the challenge of playing every week. We can't look at the quality of Degen, as he wasn't supposed to be (we hope) as shit as he was when we signed him, but that was the joys of shopping in home and bargain under the pair of pricks.

Great professional. Greater player. Even greater man.

Amen.

[Jim MM]

What a cunt is Ballack though, disgraceful conduct by the former Chelsea player. He won't be playing any Champions League games with Leverkusen or anyone else next season.

[WrongIslander]

Well what do you expect from those lazy thick ballacks eh?

 

Just as well Sami is still there, I'm going to ask him if he'll take part in the track event I've got coming up sponsored by "Air Ian".

 

....

 

Go nuts nobheads. :)

[Mandrill]

I have a feeling he might come back once, probably for just one single season then retire.

 

Would be good, anyway.....

Sami, whilst an absolute fucking genius of a centreback, even when making the cameos during his last season, is now 37 and should not be coming back to liverpool to play as centreback.... for fucks sake, are we gonna bring back elisha scott. I know we have a somewhat romantic return of Dalglish as boss, but yer can bet a pound to a pinch of shite if he starts trying to persuade digger and aldo to get back in their shorts.... jesus fucking wept. move along the bus.

A 37 year old Hyypia is better than skrtel.
