Xabi Alonso : The Big Interview 10pm Sunday LFCTV

[RedKnight]

That game against Norwich in the 04/05 season where he made his first home start and it was like a breath of fresh air after watching Salif Diao in the middle in the last 2 years.

Did you only watch reserve games?

[RedKnight]

Did you only watch reserve games?

 

I dunno, do you have to pay to watch them? Because if you do, I imagine you didn't see them either.

[kalasoma]

By the end of the interview, there'll be a special announcement that he's coming back to Anfield and that he's keeping his shexy ginger beard.

 

God I miss him...

[Antynwa]

You know how Carra and Stevie got loads of shit for supposedly getting Rafa sacked. Would Xabi have stood by Rafa?

[James Dean]

I can't watch it. It'd be too painful.

 

[Antynwa]

[JaminKibbler]

Has he signed yet?

[Trumo]

"Never say never", "red passion", etc...

[Antynwa]

His lads a scouser. That'll do me.

[JaminKibbler]

 

...Joe Hart?

They did? Either way, you're back you're hysterical self.

[Antynwa]

Seriously though. Give them Aquilani

[coop]

What actually though was the purpose of that interview tonight.

[Captain]

Seriously though. Give them Aquilani

Seriously though, go back to the TARTs.

[Owen]

And ever since your epitaph was splattered on my wall,

No-one comes to call: they can't stand the stench.

But I still sing your praises every time the curtain calls,

The burden on me falls, And I alone will stand at your defence.

It was LFCTV. When was anything on there purposeful? He seemed a nice bloke, though.

[Wor Horse]

What actually though was the purpose of that interview tonight.

 

Wasn't it because Rafa didn't allow him a leaving interview/letter like Riise, Garcia and others got?

[Carradona]

Yes, that's the reason. His farewell letter wan't published on the official site.

[Pidge]

Pretty crap interview, but he's a class act. Faced up to why he left without laying or deflecting blame and showed some humility and even bashfulness when Claire was going on about Twitter and his tweets about Kenny.

[Skidfingers McGonical]

Fuck this I'm outta here.

[coop]

To be fair any major newspaper would have given Alonso the opportunity to have this so called 'farewell' letter published.

 

Just seems strange that we would allow someone who is essentially an ex player the opportunity to appear on the TV channel.

 

Are we doing an interview with Mascherano next week.

No. Torres.

I don't think there is anything sinister in it. Maybe the producers just sat around a desk one day and asked 'Who should we interview?'

 

Xabi is still loved by the fans, the interview itself wasn't that damning. He didn't REALLY criticise Benitez, all he said that was he was disappointed Rafa wanted to sell him, but we all knew that anyway.

 

It was however interesting to see them mention the Lazio game in depth, I was there that day and anyone else who was would tell you just how much the crowd didn't want Barry and how much they wanted Xabi. It was universal condemnation of the move, even though personally I didn't sing nor did I approve of the 'Stick Gareth Barry up yer arse' song.
