  1. Cisse (bending over) with Baros - 'This is why I get picked Milan'
  2. Eriksson and Rooney - 'wonder if Wayne knows that granny was my mum......'
  3. Just been confirmed by his family. They had to watch the video for identification. Jesus I can't comprehend how hard that must have been. I feel so much anger now its unreal. RIP
  4. Will he leave? Yes. To Man Utd? No. Barca for me.
  5. I thought Cisse played quite well to be honest.
  6. I disagree mate, can't see any reason why Diao was picked ahead of Hamann - he offered nothing. Traore was ok for him but that in itself is nothing to get excited about. Kirkland and Cisse were ok but since when is ok been good enough? We were just plain awful. I hate to be so negative, and i'm not usually so brash in my criticisms, but I have to do a Roy Walker and 'say what I see'. The two 'performances' we've seen this week are unrivalled in their mediocrity since i've been watching us. We had one shot on target in two games. One. That is terrible.
  7. Right i'm mad, thats obvious for all to see. I will probably calm down later but what Rafa has said after the games has annoyed me. He said, and I quote him directly on this, "Harry played very well today".
  8. There's been talk that we're looking at him and I haven't really made any comment because I haven't seen him play. Just watching the Coventry-Ipswich game now and he looks like a lad with fantastic potential. Brilliant balance and touch - he's two footed, creative and has an eye for a goal. I think he's predominantly a striker but today he's playing wide left but still looks great. Obviously you can't judge someone properly after one game, but you just get the impression that he'll go all the way. Oh yeah by the way he scored ;-) (cracking game 1-1)
  9. Would I have Michael Owen back? An emphatic yes.
  10. Paul thats a class story mate - but you still should have punched him as well. You know it makes sense. I hate Terry Christian almost as much as I hate Mick Hucknall when it comes to the 'manc twat' stakes. Just thinking about him makes me angry. In fact I'm dead angry now. If anyone wants me i'll be in the back smashing up plates and stuff. Or something.
  11. I never thought i'd ever say it but Jerzy is a clown.
  12. I'm sorry but that was terrible. How you can be so good at home yet so dire away? I don't understand it at all. We didn't look like scoring once all night, whilst very time the ball came into the box it looked like they would. I fear a thrashing on Sunday I really do. I'm sure i'll calm down a bit later but the lack of passion and urgency was a real eye opener. I know it's expected that we will suffer dips with a new set-up but that doesn't excuse tonights performance in my opinion.
  13. Is that you Chris? If so nice a minor ;-)
  14. As I said at the top of this thread, it was a fantastic article and a joy to read. Danny has always been very honest and articulate in the way he discusses football. After being the club's player of the season just 12 months before being let go, you would expect some players to be well more critical, but Danny put his opinion across excellently. I found it very insightful and wish him all the success in the world. Danny Murphy = leg-end.
  15. I think its almost a dead cert that Mista will be coming in - either in January or next summer. Agree about the centre half as well although i'd hang fire with the right and left wingers for now. Harry has been turd for quite a bit now but we all know that he could click into gear any time. And I can see Warnock improving a lot given a run. Then there's Nunez. Haven't any idea how he will pan out but i'd prefer to see him before making a judgement on whether we should buy for that position. And anyway, if we do get Mista that would free up Garcia to play on the right, which many see as his best position. Suddenly the options seem a bit more healthy.
  16. Gotta admit that some of the earliest recollections of going the match when I was younger was when we were all in the car on the way home looking forward to his post-match analysis. His reports have always had me smiling ever since. I don't get to listen to him much anymore but i'll always think of him warmly because of those memories I have.
  17. Yeah I read that earlier and was delighted with what he said. He's always been a very articulate and refreshing talker when it comes to football and today's article was no different. It was extremely frustrating though to see that Sky have twisted today's comments and made it into a 'murphy criticises liverpool signings' article. Suppose I should expect nothing else.
  18. I'll never forgive Davies for the way he commentated on our games during our Uefa cup win in 2001. The whole campaign we had to put up with him dampening our resolve with non-stop pointless criticism's. Ever since that year i've listened to his commentary closely and I find it amazing how anyone could ever rate him. He always highlights the negative aspects of the game and spends most of the time just spouting pointless dialogue. Good riddance.
  19. Good stuff that. Enjoyed readin it, and as Paul said there should be some good ones to look forward to as the season progresses. Something tells me that when asked who the opposition fans are worried about in our side, Xabi will become a very popular choice. Norwich report going on tonight Dave?
  20. Excellent stuff lads. I said after the Utd game how good I thought Alonso was, and he was even better yesterday. God, i'm so encouraged with us at the moment I really am. Nine points out of nine at home is exactly what the doctor ordered. Ok we have played relatively poor teams, but we've been playing such sides at home for the last few years with less success. Last season we wouldn't have beaten such sides so comfortably. Its just really refreshing to see us trying to beat teams. Obviously we have to improve when we play the big sides - the forthcoming game at Chelsea will be a big acid test. Its the things that Rafa says which encourage me so much. After the game he didn't go ott about the performance and result, in fact he said he wanted more goals and that we can improve. The best bit was when he said he wants to see us do better against the top teams. He just seems to be in touch with everything that we are all thinking.
