Gylfi Sigurdsson

[Trucker Paddy]

 

Yeah, what a cunt. Getting married and that.

 

On the day players return for preseason, he's just had 6 weeks off

[TheHitman]

Cij, Gerrard gave an interview when playing for England, and he said that he as he is getting older he hasn't got the legs to get around as much.

 

I would not be surprised if he plays deeper in a large chunk of games next season, rather than as an attacking midfielder. Also nearly any player coming into the squad being compared to Gerrard in say four different spots would more than likely be weaker.

[Jairzinho]

You think he arranged it yesterday?

 

Fucking hell. Fair enough not rating him, but having a go about him getting married?

[Cij]

Which begs the question if he is such a great manager, of whom Bill Shankly wouldnt be fit to lick the laces of his boots, why has he signed for a club without a manager when our great manager has come calling?

 

Spurs do have a manager and Sigurdsson has given an interview saying "I like him and the ideas he has. He has faith in me and I'm looking forward to working under his leadership."

 

But maybe Sigurdsson liked living near London when he was at Reading, maybe he was motivated by the higher wages Spurs offered, maybe he genuinely believes they have "world class players" and "play good football", maybe he liked the vision presented to him, maybe he has been told Van der Vaart is off, maybe he didn't fancy his chances of dislodging Steven Gerrard, maybe he just doesn't like Liverpool as a club or a city but you are probably right that he simply went off Rodgers as he is a shit manager.

The wedding's probably been organised for a year or two, and it would've been his wife that chose the date.

Preseason was probably decided at the end of last season.

Preseason starts 1st week in July every year, skertl and Adam both got married a month ago, it's not about rating him he's just a awful professional, this just adds to the "mental issues" and pulling outta games over a sniffle

No preseason starts 1st week in July every year, every time you hear of a player getting married it's may or June, we've our 1st competitive game 4 weeks today.

[piscinin]

 

However, the air of despondency that has greeted his decision is unwarranted.

 

The air of despondency is fueled by more than just this decision. To some this is yet another reminder of our diminished circumstances. Another milepost alongside the road to mediocrity.

Granted the timing isn't great but it was love as soon as their eyes crossed...

I'm sure we had another cm with a beard who got married in July, the bastard.

[Jairzinho]

11 July apparently. What a massive fucking cunt.

Hurrah, the sensible people have arrived.

I think you'll find alonso got married in July but when he was along with other Spanish players an extended break as they were playing in that pre world cup tournament in south Africa in 2009

[Hand Shandy]

I know it's a laughable thought Trucker, but do you think there's a possibility, however slim, that it was arranged so it didn't clash with the Euro's?

 

I know you think he's completely shite, and I'm not disagreeing with you, but he may have thought a season at Milan would give him a shot at getting into the Italian squad...

 

EDIT: obviously talking about Aquilani, not Alonso.

Oh, so what? Why are you banging on about this. Surely you'd be better spending your time spinning this into how the owners are giant bastards?

He might have had a 6 week stag do.

Fair enough, I agree that there is some cause for concern. However, I personally think the onset of depression may be a little premature and should be postponed until at least the start of the season. If we have not signed any promising players FSG will be facing a full scale revolt. I just don't think the first week in July is the right time to proclaim our demise.

Your right very laughable, also I don't think he's completely shite, I know he's a terrible professional

Rodgers on Sigurdsson: "I believed playing football will be most important to him but obviously it was important financially."

[RedinSweden]

This morning I'm inclined to agree that I was a bit drunk... I mean, harsh.

 

Still, I have grave doubts. About our manager. Our signings (or the potential lack thereof). And, most of all, about our owners.

 

You need to man up. I am calm, therefore you should also be calm.

 

That's how it works.

Rodgers on Sigurdsson: "I believed playing football will be most important to him but obviously it was important financially."

 

Wafflefish translation.

'I thought he valued football but it appears he's a money grabbing bastard"

[Glen C]

Rodgers cont: "I knew what the market was and I wasn't prepared to pay anything over what I agreed to pay before."

About time they clamped down on this sort of thing now where was I? Oh yes, I was about to call you a lickspittle but hearing this news has left me feeling a tad more generous, there is still some justice in the world, yes they have a new manager, some non-descript sucker, it seems he has little faith in us and our meagre moneyspinningball wages. We are a bland team, with a bland kit, a bland manager and bland owners, you've met Ian Ayre, hes just revamped our LFC news and current affairs output? Oh for the soft Ecru days lost in a Leonhardsen daze amidst passionate craze with each wash fades now Oynvind dont wear shades, he's just another face in the crowd ablaze with rage.

[dennis tooth]

Is that Rogers, or Moyes saying that? An I hate sayin that.

[dickie mint]

Rodgers on Sigurdsson: "I believed playing football will be most important to him but obviously it was important financially."

 

 

Is this going to be Rodgers's line every time FSG dont cough up top wages.
