  1. I don't expect Klopp to raid Dortmund, but if someone else bids for a player he'd like from them then he'd join the race, they do have some talent!
  2. Does anyone know a safe, reliable, live ashes stream?
  3. If we are to play a back 3 in this game I would rather see Carra in the middle than Coates, maybe do a sub later in the game, but I have never seen a former team mate get the better of Jamie Carragher. I fear Crouch might be too cunning for Coates (in an English way), he also hasn't played for a while, could be suseptible to giving a foul/penalty or getting a card, whereas JC doesn'y give that fear, Crouch ain't fast, but he's clever, he's a fucking spider!
  4. Honestly he looks like the milkybar kid, or Ricky Shroeder, what's he gonna do, grow a pair of fat mutton chops and start kicking players into the air?
  5. Gaining an advantage over your opponent and therefore turning an event into a positive for your team, nation/fans should be more important to a footballer than what is written about him in the 'gutter press'. Suarez is indeed a legend, he is talked about, by defenders more than anyone else probably. He is steely determinatiion personified. How long he will stay is another thing.. I hope Sturridge and any other additions transit smoothly into the team, recent history states that 2 of 3 of them will not. It's not just the owners who will get us to CL, it's the manager. Suarez will be made captain after Stevie and the side will be designed around him, he knows this, it has to be preferable to blending in with galacticos/living in a Messi limelight I reckon Suarez is really Rodgers kind of guy/player for all of the reasons stated already by everyone from Ghana to Grimsby. If BR gets it right Suarez will be with us for a while, two or three more like him and we are in business!
  6. Isn't Kelly still injured? I can't wait for him to be available again, he's good enough to be a first teamer, but on current team's form he's an even better back-up. We are all happy that the timimg has been right for a manager to actually have something at the academy worth using, at a time when he has no choice, but keeping young talent together as a group (Stirling, Shelvey, Suso, Kelly, Robinson, Ince) as they mature into good footballers is better for our future than hoping the owners might start writing cheques for silly money. I think Kelly is a great example of the future of the club, and he's a local boy!
  7. Great result today too, obviously, shame it weren't 5 or 6, but 4 is very good! They were woefull JAR showing us why we moved him on, loved the reception he got though. Today is the first time in a long time that I have sat watching from the first whistle to the last grinning like a madman, just waiting for us to score again. Brilliant.
  8. Like Carroll we will make a loss on Downing. AND? Keeping either one signed to the club for any longer than absolutely neccessary (for any wage) is not a step in the right direction. Walcott, Sturridge and Ince, that's a step in the right direction. With Kelly to come back in January, we would have a bigger squad, and a squad with youth and talent. The least Downing owes LFC is to pull his finger out just prior to the window to turn some heads, maybe even up his price a tad. Good times ahead.
  9. A penalty? You're joking.. The two top teams have 9 pens between them this season, and we have none, even when it is obviously a nailed-on pen it is not given.. When we do one day get a pen I do not want it to be against a team we should be hammering anyway!! Save the pens for the scum/bluescum/or last day of the season grab 4th. Be careful what you wish for. If you are only going to get 1-2 pens in a season they better be in games that count. I guarantee Asda Vanilla will get a pen, we wont!
  10. I miss Bellamy. We could use his pace, experience, and finishing! By the way Dr. Peters goes on about the coaches, and that Bellers was with him way before this bbc show would have me suggest that Kenny could have been the one to get this guy in to sort Bellers' head after the Speed Death. He was set to start, but was rested after the Speed Death, when he returned he was an inspiration..
  11. Right, I started reading this thread and got so annoyed I couldn't finish, I just had to say; £40k/week, £5000 per goal and £5000 per assist (they're all goals!) with a 10% annual rise dependant on appearances and/or performance. Footballers all have agents and they are greedy manipulative cunts, they have to prove their worth and so they go overboard, it's the nature.. Sterling has shown some poor judgement on the pitch, I forgave him in the derby, I just thought he was fired up for the derby, and maybe he was, but he is not even near the finished article. On his day he is unplayable, but how often will that be? At the moment it's about once every 4 games, it has to improve and it will, but is this a bridge to far for this manager (not picking on, we haven't a great record recently of managers who are down with the youths)? Sterling is a great prospect, manage the player AND manage the man properly then almost any amount of money is worth it in the long run, so long as you have a decent backroom staff and years of topflight management experience then no Problem. The manager needs to shut up and do the talking on the pitch! I feel better now, cheers.
