Spearing, Poulsen, Kyriagos, Cole, Lucas, Ngog wouldn't have got into the dressing room to serve oranges at half time for the team in the 70s or 80s, so why are they good enough now!
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
i see the Lucas haters are back because we lost a game.
in a team we need the match winners like the Suarez's and the Carroll's, but we also need the players that will consistently play 7/ 10 like Lucas
in that position, he is never going to win us the game, he is their to provide the option and to maintain possession and then protect the back four when we don't have possession, which he did so give him a break whenever we lose or draw a game
WHAT ABSOLUTE TOSH. THE LAD CONSISTENTLY GIVES AWAY FREE KICKS OUTSIDE OUR BOX UNNECESSARILY!
GRAEME SOUNESS WAS A 7/ 10 PLAYER BUT HE WOULDN'Y WIPE HIS ARSE WITH LUCAS!
YOU NEED TO LEARN ABOUT OUR GREAT TEAM'S HISTORY BEFORE YOU DEFEND AN AVERAGE MIDFIELDER THAT WOULD SUIT FULHAM OR BIRMINGHAM.

What is Benzema's salary?
10 Mar 2011 23:26:20
Very much disappointed with today's performance. The only positive I could draw out of the game was Andy Carroll's introduction, he won every ball in the air tonight.
Dirk Kuyt is still an amazing striker, it just doesn't suit him playing upfront on his own with no wingers to whip balls in.
I know people are giving Spearing alot of stick but he was quite quick with the passes.
Lucas did alright but did get caught in possession as he sometimes holds on to the ball for too long.
Cole was ineffective for most the game, did seem to come alive when Carroll came in.
I was shouting for Poulsen to come off as early as the 10th minute, he had already given the ball away several times and had missed quite a few headers too.
One more point, our AWAY FORM has been extremely bad if not atrocious! Its not only Europa but the league as well. Do you know why that is Ed? It has improved with Kenny at the helm but still is quite shocking!
RedSox69 {Ed001's Note - because Kenny plays European football the way it used to be - sit back and defend the away leg and win the home leg.}

Compared to who we have on the wings i would happily take swp,
10 Mar 2011 22:55:03
I wonder what the odds are on who will win the europa league now that we have lost 1-0 as 2nd favourites and the favourites, man city have lost 2-0. I know the tie isn't over for us as I'm confident we can beat Braga but for City its unpredictable as they are not too attack-minded. If City win 3-1 they are out, but do we want them out?

What the poor scum don't realise, that without a scouser there would be no manowe, it was a scouser that started up newton heath football club, so they are as much scousers as us, jmmybosun,
his name was frederick attock,
10 Mar 2011 22:37:05
If we signed clichy, mcgeidy, banega and mexes i would be a very happy red as they all have experiance at the top level to become instant hits at LFC. For anyone who doesn't think Mcgeady is suitable, he has been imence this season and is well worth a punt.
I know these players are not everyones cup of tea but with defence of johnson, agger, mexes and clichy and with midfielders such as mcgeady, banega, merelies and gerrard with out current strikeforce i can't see any weaknesses. . not to forget pepe of course!
The other thing is that all these players are well and truely affordable in fees and wages so they are well within our grasp if we choice to go for them that is.

Listening to Jan Molbys commentry on the game and he asked the following question. What does joe cole bring to liverpool? and then answered his own question with he has no pace no skill can't go by a player. Can anyone help Jan out here? ?

In Cole we have someone who makes Maxi look like a top class signing.

. . . . .
yeah he's rite its not like braga had us under the cosh.
we were just utter s**te, take out a couple and players and were a very average team.
spearing is never going to be good enough for LFC.
Cole I think is one of them players who needs to be playing every week, which we can't give him. he was class but he's not played a lot of football in the last 2 years and at his age I can't see him ever finding that form again.

To the guy who wrote this about Kenny
" second best LFC manager of all time"
I love King Kenny as much as any liverpool fan but let me ask you something
2nd best LFC manager of all time? Which one did you forget Shankly or Paisley?
10 Mar 2011 22:05:47
The starting XI 2nite was s**t, kk should neva select a team like dis(poulsen, meireles &spearing sucks 2nite).i do
nt no why british players are being favoured why other countries arnt(pacheco, suso, mavinga & many more).Meireles should try2 control d midfield in d absence of gerrard & wen he's present, cos wen d team isn't playin well he's alwayz lost.if he doesn't change b4 next season he'l find himself on d bench cos his performance 4 abt 3/ 4matches has been poor.
Another issue is our back four, pa caragher nids go back 2d bench, kyrgiakos & skrtel nid 2go @d end of d season bcos we can't compete wit dis porous defence.
MY WISH 4D SUMMER:cahil, mexes/ shawcross, bastos, m'villa, honda, sanchez, young/ a.johnson, barrios/ jovetic & d return of IL PRINCIPINO(AqUiLaNi)we really missed him in our midfield.
Ed i want ur comment abt d team 2nite, do d selection is crap.

ha ha to the Pathetic Manure fan who thought it would sound funny sayin how we only get second class players, funny the way we annilated yous on sunday with Gerrard not 100% fit and Suarez takin the p*** out of your defence. Ye you can argue that yous had no Vidic and Ferdinand but i think Vidic would of got sent off. The funny thing is Suarez sys the best is still to come. As for when we had our owner promblems with H&G at least we arent Di**eds to wear Green and yellow scarfs you plantpots, whats the purpose of that! . ARE YOU NORWICH IN DISGUISE?. . . .FERGIE'S RIGHT YOUR FANS ARE s**tE, FERGIE'S RIGHT YA FANS ARE s**tE! ha hah jog on when ya speak some propa stuff.

To all the lucas haters, have you not noticed that lucas has only been having bad games when hes playing along side poulson?
I don't know what it is but when poulson doesn't play lucas ups his game by a mile, poulson is the one you should be hating (well to be fair you shouldnt be hating any of the lads) but poulson is by far the worst player in the squad in my opinion

Ok are people really saying lucas is better than sandro i mean get a grip im a liverpool fan lucas is a joke! and carra is not better thn dawson who is having an outstanding season carra is rubbish! !
spurs have a good side but with 2 good centre halves and 2 wingers and a decent centralmidfielder liverpool will be better that's all let the spurs fans gloat pool fans did it for long enough and after reading some of the totlly stupid comments on good people think these average liverpool players are most people on here don't have a clue about football and ill include some of the eds in that {Ed003's Note -Cheers mate}

What Choices did he have on the subs bench? Carroll was bought on. the rest don't really have much quality, so we would have not been much better off. Ross
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
you can agree that either one of cole or spearing was rubbish today right well, Pacheco was there he couldn't do worse than what they produced.
so i hope come the summer we do loose Pacheco as hes not going to be treated fairly at Liverpool. {Ed005's Note - Pacheco supposedly lacks motovation and effort in training - why should he play then? }
'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
i agree but without giving a donkey carrot your not going to have much luck moving it!. he's fed up and i can see why if you can't then your just another fan of putting English born players first. . like come on ed spearing in front of Pacheco? shelvy i understand because he has ability spearing has half of what he has! and if your saying just because he tries hard he gets to play. well we keep on seeing what that does for the team. . nothing good can come of it! therefore we need a manager who can come in and introduce and bleed players into the first team without and agenda. someone that had the same faith as Benitez did. he gave kelly, ayala, Pacheco etc all chances not just the few English lads. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
{Ed005's Note: I think you need to re-read and evaluate my post. I stated that Pacheco was apparantly not putting in the effort in training. If that was the case why should he play? When you are young and unproven you need to work hard in training and show the manager you are up for it. And I can't believe your suggesting that we need to bring in another manager - based on one game where Kenny didn't bring on Pacheco. Kenny has given Kelly regular first-team football, he has played Wilson in several games, given Shelvey multiple chances. Rafa played a youngster in the odd game and that was it.}
no long term manager for the future (2013-2014 season) because i don't think Kenny will be the long term manager he will just be there to stabilize the club something Roy couldn't do. and by then we will have an even better youth set up with i hope a lot of young aspiring talents. and im not by any means suggesting bring rafa back, but i was just pointing out which players he has played. and also Shelvy wasn't there for rafa to play nor was Wilson. so to be fare he set up the academy in anticipation that he would be there to be able to bring these players in. because when he was there, there weren't many players to play other than Kelly, Insua, Ayala and Pacheco (which he did "often" on euro nights) who where the most talented at the club. along with Lucas and Ngog. .but all in all i was just upset that kenny didn't give any of the players on the bench a second thought . it was like they were there just incase of injuries. .and it wouldn't hurt to give Pacheco a runout of 5-10mins when the players on the field also didn't deserve to be there not for attitude reasons but purely because they just don't cut it. that in my mind would give him the boost. because he's probs been told a hundred times get motivated but sometimes that just isn't enough, give him 5 mins just to get him to see that rewards will come if he applies himself. . . . . . . . . . . . .
10 Mar 2011 21:13:15
Wheres all the stevie haters now, hes finished and should be benched, its a joke we missed him tonight,

Ed who out of hansen, bouzanis, gulacsci is the better goal keeper and should be 2nd choice behind pepe.DORSET RED {Ed005's Note - I would personally say Bouzanis.}
10 Mar 2011 21:21:25
Ed is there any chance that we might try and sign aguero. There is talk that he will leave in the summer, he is a liverpool fan and he would fit in perfectly with suarez and carroll. I know he would cost a lot but this is the sort of player we need to sign if we are going to win the league {Ed005's Note - If we had the money for him he'd come, but unfortunatly we don't.}
10 Mar 2011 20:58:03

Good luck, History Boys. Ha, ha
NEVILLE=HATES=SCOUSERS
I think Man U look like liverpool in 1990. . . coming to the end of their glory years with an ageing team and no real youth coming through. . we had to wait years for Carra, gerrard, fowler, owen etc. .
You will have to spend big with money you haven't got to re build. .scholes, neville, giggs, van der sar, Owen have absolutley NO sell on value. .
Yes you still have a few good young players but no were near enough with the talent to sustain a title challenge next year.
You will be pipped to the title and fergie will hand over the reigns and leave the nxt mgr with an ageing squad and no money to improve it. .
The tide has turned and u lot are starting to panic. .
10 Mar 2011 21:01:24
"Lmfao = lucas better than sandro! King, woodgate are a hundred times better than agger, carra as is dawson, gallas, kaboul. Modric a million times better than meirelles, vdv better than gerrard, bale n lennon nuff said (watch youtube they botgg hate liverpool). The list goes on and on. I aint going to brag a bout things its pure fact tottenham are better."
I'll do a comparison:
Reina v Gomes: Reina (no contest)
Kelly v Hutton: Kelly
Agger v Dawson: Agger
Skrtel v Gallas: Gallas
Johnson v Assou-Ekotto: Johnson
Maxi v Lennon: Lennon
Gerrard v Modric: Modric
Meireles v VDV: Meireles
Kuyt v Bale: Bale
Suarez v Defoe: Suarez (not even comparable)
Carroll v Crouch: Carroll
10 Mar 2011 21:05:05
So i hope come the summer we do loose Pacheco as hes not going to be treated fairly at Liverpool. {Ed005's Note - Pacheco supposedly lacks motovation and effort in training - why should he play then? }
It's this supposed lack of motivation & effort that he asked KK to play 45 mins for the reserves against WBA before going to Braga. It's nonsense to think that KK would even have him on the bench if he thought that Pacheco didn't warrarnt his place.
The Irish Rover {Ed005's Note: At the same time, you could argue that the likes of Poulsen don't earn their place.}
10 Mar 2011 20:42:18
Ed if pacheco lacks so much effort why does kenny have him on the bench? surely he could use anyother young lad to sit and smile for the cameras {Ed005's Note - And why isn't he starting?}
10 Mar 2011 20:43:14

10 Mar 2011 20:47:51
I know I'll only be labelled a "Lucas hater" for this comment but I just can't have him. He does break up play well at times and he is massively improved on previous seasons but he still gives the ball away too often and gives away dangerous free kicks while bringing zero in creativity. That team tonight would have been improved if Gerrard could have played in place of Lucas and nobody would be daft enough to try and dispute that so I rest my case.
10 Mar 2011 20:50:08
I agree with this. Always thought two things in modern football are strange. .
1. Playing wingers on their weaker foot, if you play them on their weaker foot then when you break on a counter is slows the movement down when they have to cut back on their strong foot. It also makes them insanely predictable. .cover their strong foot and they are ineffective. Its the reason why wingers no longer have crossing ability. .we encourage them to play on wrong side and cut inside to shoot. In truth there are very few actual WINGERS left. They are all forwards now.
2. Defensive midfielders. .personally I can't stand defensive midfielders, its like having a glorified defender in midfield. instead of defensive midfielders why not just have a defense that's good enough on their own, there's usually four of them so they should outnumber strikers. Midfield in my opinion should always be looking to move the ball forward.
Rewflo
- - - - - - - - - - -
The main reason for the defensive midfielder is to stop the threat of players like gerrard, suarez, miereles finding the gaps between defence and midfield, therefore having a free run at defenders.
They are glorified defenders really, but they have a job to do, and the likes of mascherano do it very well.
It also basically allows you to play 5 attack minded players, with one midfielder being happy to sit back the other midfielders and strikers can then bomb on when in possesion while he also helps to cover in case of a counter attack.

I too was wondering about Pacheco and why he is not playing, but now after what the ed's have said regarding his training then he doesn't deserve to be on the bench
Send him on loan for a few months next season but don't sell maybe some time in the sun will improve his apparent laziness in training

you could sell bebe, owen, carrick, hargreaves, evans and you still couldn't afford a new goalie for yourself.

10 Mar 2011 20:24:38
Hmmm that was annoying and again predictable performance. No matter what lift our home performances give us we never replicate the quality away from home and usually in the very next game.
We are so Jekyll and Hyde both as a team and as individuals it is infuriating. How from Sunday to tonight can we go from being brilliant to really, really ordinary?
It is this consistent inconsistency which has plagued us for too many months now. I don't need to go on and on about Kyriagos, he proves every time he plays he isn't good enough for a squad place and as for Poulsen, he is achieving what i never thought was possible. He is actually getting worse.
Dalglish needs to halt this alarming deficiency, otherwise it will seriously undermine any chance he has of grabbing this chance.
You just cannot understand why a team, after Sunday, would put in such a below par and flat performance. We appear to be having false dawn's once a week at the moment.
You may think Braga were not that strong, we thought the same about Sparta in the last round and look at that display. This is now 5 crap performances out of our last 6 games.
The other worry is when Carroll came on we started to go long, we may have been 'trying' to chase the game but we need to ensure we mix it up. Having Skrtel and Kyriagos as centre backs and carra as right back, it is such an easy out for them to lump the ball up to a 6ft 5" striker. Christ we could buy the back four of Barnet to do that. Might mind we would increase the pace, whilst at the same time met John H Henry's objective of lowering the wage bill.
I seriously doubt we'd notice the change in quality of the defending.
And you wonder why i don't get all excited after one home win? I'm a miserable bugger, not helped by a bloody bad dose of Liverpool every 7 days. You'd think my body would become immune to it by now, but no i get all worked up by kick off and by half time i'm kicking the cat.
Right thank God i've got Liverpool Youth -v- Blackburn to watch now.

Spearing is a terrible player. Anyone who thinks different has no clue about football.
10 Mar 2011 20:09:45
Personally I cannot see the point of putting Carroll on the bench and leaving him there for morethan an hour. He should have started ans been taken off when he became tired - not start with Poulsen who was tired before he began! I also don 't understand why substitutes are not used more often - perhaps they all caught cramp with sitting on the bench! I think that we will go through next week but only if we start with Carroll and Kuyt up front and Cole, Poulsen, and a few others at home!

10 Mar 2011 20:10:05

in a team we need the match winners like the Suarez's and the Carroll's, but we also need the players that will consistently play 7/ 10 like Lucas
in that position, he is never going to win us the game, he is their to provide the option and to maintain possession and then protect the back four when we don't have possession, which he did so give him a break whenever we lose or draw a game

What is the point on a so called 'Rumours' page of allowing ridiculous posts through from Man u fans with the specific intent of causing s**t! Some fans with the specific intent of causing s**t! Some rumours are far fetched but that's the point of the page, not for other fans to take the piss. This kinda thing loses your credibility as a decent site kinda thing loses your credibility as a decent site and bores the s**t outta me! {Ed003's Note - Thats why there is a 'banter' page}

Funny that, since I posted to 'Rumours' page and you decide where it actually ends up! Completely proved my point! The reds were gutless tonight and it seems some of the ed's are of similar ilk. {Ed005's Note - If you aren't happy then I suggest you go somewhere else and stop wasting the editors' time with all your moaning.}

Lmfao = lucas better than sandro! King, woodgate are a hundred times better than agger, carra as is dawson, gallas, kaboul. Modric a million times better than meirelles, vdv better than gerrard, bale n lennon nuff said (watch youtube they botgg hate liverpool). The list goes on and on. I aint going to brag a bout things its pure fact tottenham are better.
Braga lol lol lol lol.
Tottenham king
swear braga beat arsenal, and don't even argue that you's a better than them
in fact, don't even argue that you are better than liverpool. for all your 'attacking football' you's bricked one against the big boys and parked the bus, and not once this season have i seen you perform to the quality of kk's liverpool team (notably the united game)
lucas s**ts on sandro don't even argue, van der vaart only went because he knew for once in his life he'd get a game, and bale is off as soon as a big club open their wallets
get back to your own page mate, it needs it, last time i checked it was deserted! or is that because you only speak up when you's become 'world beaters' once in a blue moon?
10 Mar 2011 20:12:22
'I aint going to brag about things its pure fact tottenham are better. Tottenham king'
LOL half the players u mentioned spend more time on the sick bed than on the pitch! King? Woodgate? Are they still playing?
On another note - Poulsen should be ejected asap. Cole was massively disappointing. Team looked so much better when Carroll came on

Look guyz clearly tottenhem is probably the best team in Europe right now, they will pip united to the title, will win the f.a cup get to the cl final where bale will outshine messi and will go on to win 20 titles 6 European cups 20 f.a.cups 1 carling cup as its a mickey mouse cup so all of us will have to watch in awe.

King and wildcats, are they the same players who can manage 5mins between them all season
Sandro, who the **** is he and compared to Lucas sandro is nothing
If you are gonna come on these pages and try to jip us don't, or you can do it when you have something to jip us about
I guess we will see later in the season when we play again to see who the better team is {Ed005's Note - Agger is a lot better than Woodgate. Woodgate is keeping the physios in work.}

What do people expect from a very average squad, Do you expect Kenny to work miracles with sh**e Poulson, Spearing, Kyrgiakos, Ngog, Cole don't really have a place in the liverpool squad, We all know these players need to be replaced with quality, which can't be done until the summer. Ross

Having seen our line up I don't think we can win tonight. Poulsen is useless and nothing will convince me otherwise. Unless cole and meireles can create any chances, Kuyt will be a useless front man. The only good I see coming from tonights game is Carroll getting more game time. Anything else is a bonus but whatever the result I think we will see an average performance at best. As good as our performance was against united on Sunday we are still a very average side when we aren't at full strength and will be lucky to get anything from any game if our line up is as it is tonight.
Shows what I know :)

People are allowed to post what they want (within guidelines) and yet this:

You know it, the world knows it.
Good luck, History Boys. Ha, ha

Someone should tell the MUFC fans (please write in large letters with your crayon and don't use big words) that history is anything more than a second ago . . hence they join us as History Boys!
Oh and to the Spurs fans who are posting:
I know your page is short, bereft of posters and dull, but if you make your successes into a ruler, it would be two inches long. On that basis, the LFC ruler would be 49 feet an counting!

Ed im sitting here like every other liverpool fan thinking why the hell is poulsen still getting games , can't kenny see he is clearly so rubbish! its just not even funny , look at our team it is so poor , yet again a shocking performance in europe , i havent watched a single game this season in the europa that ive thought we have played well .
ive got two questions ed
1) why does kenny keep playing poulsen? seriously , his only attribute is that he can foul , and that isn't a good attribute.
2) why is kenny doing a roy hodgson regarding team selection? why not put spearing cm with lucas , meirles on right and pacheco behind kuyt least abit more attacking threat.
this is seriously worrying , we look along way off champo league standard. {Ed001's Note - because he is just doing what European football always involves, keeping it tight away from home.}

The team we put out 2nite is 2nd rate. Apart from meireles, the rest are crap or being played outta position. Carra has no pace for rb. Soto can barley kick a ball (good in air) Johnson is on the left? 4 centre mids for sum reason. Kuyt up top, he may work but he has zero skill. Cole and poulsen are just garbage. If only it was Cole from 5 years ago. Are we playin for a draw?? Not much positive to say 2night. Half time ATM so hopefully we can turn it round

I'd rather have Ngog than poulsen or spearing as he could offer us pace. Poulsen and Spearing offer nothing, theu can't pass, tackle, shoot, run or do anything except give away the ball and take up space. I call for 2 of Pacheco, Maxi, or Ngog to replace those 2.

You all, mr em ynwa, sir bob the red to name a few are always going on the tottenham, arsenal pages with unprovoked belittling bitter jealous rants against tottenham. Your a bunch of clowns.

If we had a proper manager for the full campaign we would be above you fact.
You will not finish top 4 fact.
Our squad is lacking and we are not arguing with that, but come summer that will be sorted out, and we will attract better players than you.
As for you saying your squad is better, you probably only have bale, vdv and modric that we would be interested in.
Where as I'm sure you would love to have reina, Johnson, gerrard, miereles, suarez and Carroll.
If its a lifetime achievement for your team to come 4th it shows how much of a small team you are.

Goes to show how pathetic you are. Just like everton, you live in the shadow of your neighbours.

I keep reading about Reia being a great penalty stopper - again no evidence of it. When did he last save one? By the way, I think that he was slow in conceding the last-minute goal for the second week running. Let him go - his is one position that we can cover fairly easily.

What does everyone think of the team tonight?
David No go on the bench, Kuyt following his hat-trick with a goal here?
Spearing and Poulsen sitting, giving Lucas, Meireles and Cole more space to attack?
I think its a decent line up, against a team who arent too shabby, having beaten Arsenal and Celtic this season. Slightly cautious playing with 1 upfront, but Lucas has shown hes capable on the front foot and Meireles is a great attacking force, just got to hope Cole finds some sort of inspiration!
Ed, what are your thoughts on the line up? {Ed001's Note - I don't think we have much in the way of options and it is about as good as we have at the moment.}

According to the metro athletico madrid will offer aguero & forlan to spurs for £40 million! my B-I-L has a lot to do with spurs and i did mention this a few weeks ago! they will also bid for micah richards, baines, marin, huntelaar & few yo ung players, a mass clear out is expected at spurs such as pavluychenko, defoe, keane, jenas, bentley & o'hara etc etc SO what would the odds be to bring in either pav or defoe?
- - - - - - - -
Mate, you have been plaguing this site for weeks. Face it, Spuds will not get any of the players you talk about and will retire gracefully to midtable football when Modric and Bale are bought by big clubs next season. We will not be buying players as bad as Pavlyuchenko and Defoe. On current form Liverpool are far better than Spuds - why on earth would we want their reserve players?
You say Aguero and Forlan were offered for £40m - is this the same Aguero that had several £40m bids rejected in Jan? So Atletico are just throwing in Forlan for a laugh? Aguero probably had to look up who Spuds were when he found they had big for him.
This is why I'd rather Chelsea get CL than Spuds. If Spuds managed to get it then we'd have to deal with another season of arrogant cockney gloryhunters infesting our lives with their unrealistic ideals and twisted belief that they have
suddenly become a big club when they are in fact midgets in the land of giants.

10 Mar 2011 17:02:00
I would be over the moon if we did end up signing Sanchez in the summer but the likelihood of that happening is pretty slim.
I would happily take Ashley Young, Arda Turan and Sylvian Marveaux for the same amount instead. Young and Turan can play on both wings and Marveaux can play across the midfield.
I'd break the bank for Leighton Baines because I think he would solve the left back crisis we've had for such a long time and would hope we sign a striker too.
Ever Banega would be the Cherry on top.
What do you think Ed? {Ed001's Note - I would love us to sign Sanchez but I do think the money would be better spent elsewhere as well. Banega or Javi Martinez would be excellent additions.}

- - - - - - - - - -
Yep, I'd still put him RW as Pacheco needs to play and would be ruined at RW. .where at least Kuyt is used to playing there. Maxi worked bloody damn hard against Utd and he'd do the same this evening. Away at Braga isn't the time for youngsters.
10 Mar 2011 17:09:06
Enzo Perez
This speedy right winger is already nearing 200 senior club appearances despite only just celebrating his 24th birthday. Perez has pace to burn and is also a decent finisher scoring a cracking goal against Internacional in last years Copa as his club, Estudiantes (LP) of Argentina, almost knocked the team out who went on to win. He has been linked with a move to Hamburg and you can see why. A very exciting player with a few senior caps to his name who will no doubt be moving to Europe soon.
any chance ed if we can sort out the work permit? {Ed001's Note - no idea, don't know anything about him sorry.}

10 Mar 2011 17:10:59
Having seen our line up I don't think we can win tonight. Poulsen is useless and nothing will convince me otherwise. Unless cole and meireles can create any chances, Kuyt will be a useless front man. The only good I see coming from tonights game is Carroll getting more game time. Anything else is a bonus but whatever the result I think we will see an average performance at best. As good as our performance was against united on Sunday we are still a very average side when we aren't at full strength and will be lucky to get anything from any game if our line up is as it is tonight.
10 Mar 2011 17:12:08
Poulson - Spearing - Lucas defensive or what??
Unless lucas is going to be allowed to play attackively like he's always wanted other than that glad to see Cole get a chance ahead of Maxi -Mc
10 Mar 2011 16:49:19
{Ed001's Note - except he is not a world class right winger, hence why he doesn't start often for City. He has experience and quality on the left, I would prefer to play him there where he can make the most of it. Playing a player on the wrong foot only benefits teams like Barca, otherwise it just closes down space and hampers teams attacking efforts.}
- - - - - - - - - - - -
I agree with this. Always thought two things in modern football are strange. .
1. Playing wingers on their weaker foot, if you play them on their weaker foot then when you break on a counter is slows the movement down when they have to cut back on their strong foot. It also makes them insanely predictable. .cover their strong foot and they are ineffective. Its the reason why wingers no longer have crossing ability. .we encourage them to play on wrong side and cut inside to shoot. In truth there are very few actual WINGERS left. They are all forwards now.
2. Defensive midfielders. .personally I can't stand defensive midfielders, its like having a glorified defender in midfield. instead of defensive midfielders why not just have a defense that's good enough on their own, there's usually four of them so they should outnumber strikers. Midfield in my opinion should always be looking to move the ball forward.

If Gerrard needs an op, should we not get him in for it now, we can manage til the new season starts and have him fully fit for next term?
I think its safe to say that sixth is really all we can realistically grap, 5th would be great but i don't see it.
10 Mar 2011 16:55:14
Just my opinion but against chelsea this year Lucas was aour best player I thought, Kuyt style energy and workrate and also glued the midfield together that day. All the talk was about Nando but even before Torres left I still thought MOM shouldve gone to lucas

I completly agree, Lucas has been doing the dirty work for Stevie and raul all season, He reminds me a bit of Danny Murphy, Did all the un-recognizable hard work so others could express them selves more.

On the subject of Alonso, I bet 90% of fans would welcome him back in a heart beat. Is there any chance that Jose would be stupid enough to let me go or that we would have the smarts to go after him if there was a sniff of an opportunity? I reckon that in his role and given the style of his play he must have 5 very good years left in him.

I would have Alonso back in a heartbeat. It doesn't matter even if he were old (which he isn't he is still peak years for a midfielder 29) because his game was never about speed or stamina. .Alonso greatest attribute was not even his laser guided 40 yard passes. .it was his brain. He has the ability (that only true great players possess) to play three or four moves ahead of his opposition, his mind is so quick. Its a VERY rare gift these days, as now all everyone seems to be bothered about is blistering pace.

ANYWHOO,
Why we not talking bout the game, Shame on you all lol
Im predicting 1-1, I think Braga are a good team and will give us a match tonight (surprise us), We'll have to step it up in the second leg, But then again most 1st leg games are bout sussing each other out.

- - - - - - - - - -
Cant see this happening now. Not because we couldnt attract him, I think we could and our previous dealings with Ateltico have all been both professional and easy. I think the real problem is that I don't think he would fit our system. He plays like Owen used to, off the shoulder of last defender breaking with pace. .he would have to take place of Carroll or Suarez and would not be happy with rotation. For this reason I don't think we will place a bid for him at all

Have to agree with Steve Parker. We do seem to be laying the groundwork by getting the backroon staff sorted. I was particularly impressed when we brought in the specialist medical staff. It has always seemed illogical to have an expensive player sitting on the medical table too long because you don't have the specialist readily available.
All of the support staff should be contributing so the first team squad is only focused on getting results. this all looks good for us now.
As a different point, it is finally good to see the Gerrard leaving rumour-monger is a Lampard lover. Fat Frank couldn't last the pace with SG even with SG's groin injury. When FF does one of his 10 yard runs he holds his arms like he is missing his handbag!
Do people really have names like Anfield Andy/ Pete or Aintree whatever or is it just a self given tag to add credibilty? I could use "Kev of the Kop" but as I have never been on the Kop it would not bear scrutiny. I only add a name to show who I am and the cross I have to bear!

We are such suckers for what we consider amazing and magical. I agree with some of the original posting - there's a lot better than Eriksen and some of them are homegrown.
Truth is, I've always hated this inflated view of foreign players and in particular, the Brazilians. Many Brazilians are lesser players than Steven Gerrard, Ryan Giggs and a host of other English players will ever be. But because they have single names, a suntan, fawning commentators and Nike kit, we bow down and adore them as special!

According to reports in Germany Ajern Robben has expressed to his team mates that he wishes to leave Munich in the summer for pastures new. I know he is 27 and would cost in the region of £30m but he would be a perfect fit for LFC left or right wing and is just the right age to give us 2-3 years of quality before Sterling is ready to fill his boots. The purchase of Robben would be a massive coup and signal of intent from the owners. Having intimated in the past that he would like to return to the EPL and having already played for Chelsea, I see Spurs, Utd and Liverpool as strong candidates for his preferred destination. {Ed002's Note - Why do the owners have to give a "signal of intent"?

"The Madness of King Roy XXXIV"
Alexis Sanchez is the latest name to pop up on the LFC/ DC radar. I've always wondered how any club manages to do business when every breath they take is highlighted in the media?
I doubt that some of the people we have been linked with are even bothered about leaving their current clubs. In the cases of Wright-Phillips and Carlton Cole, I hope it's more a case of LFC not wanting them to leave their current berths!
The longer I look at football with a slightly jaded eye, the more I come to appreciate that like sex (it's 90% the chase!) transfers and players coming and going are the real tease of the year. Having exhausted my fun with laughing at Whinger's latest outburst and watching the humbling this morning of Ferguson, it seems that as we draw the season to a close, this site becomes ever more interesting in this context.
We are set for thrill packed weeks of wheeler dealing (don't call the Cockney Comedy Cartoon Character that! He will go berserk on Youtube again . .) as we move players in and out this year. The older I get, the more I tend to ignore the wishlists and desire postings and just wait for the players to be signed. But while all that is going on, consider this: the mangerial appointments, coaches and senior club management roles are the ones that will really define our position over the next five years.
We will appoint KK as full-time manager on a three year contract towards the end of the season. Not rocket science and you don't need Septic Sid to work that one out. Steve Clarke must stay and I would make bold suggestion and say that we should appoint a replacement for Sammy Lee. That would be Phil Thompson. Now . . I don't know the internal politics and whether KK and PT would, could, or want to work together, but it would make sense to me. The Whinger has a strong character alongside him (Rice) and so does The Cockney Comedy Act (Jordan), while 'the strugglers' for want of a better expression, seem to have weaker sidekicks. Look at Ancelotti since the shunting out of Ray Wilkins and you get the picture.
The management of the club in terms of NESV is also vital. Christian Purslow's departure was inevitable after the wranglings over the eventual purchase. My concern is that we seem to be heading for a US style senior management; not that it will be a bad thing as both Henry and Werner are currently saying all the right things. My only concern here is that in the UK, we have failed to grasp the Bundesliga approach and appoint senior players of some stature to board level. Players such as Beckenbauer, Hoeness and Rumenigge are of that ilk. We have those sorts of players, yet I have not seen much progress in having Sir Geoff Hurst, Sir Bobby Charlton, John Toshack or even Kevin Keegan invited to board level in this country. It matters not what you think about them as managers, it is more about the way Bundesliga clubs have moulded their business models with these people as figureheads. It works on a number of levels.
For the first time in a very long time supporting LFC, I am coming round to my own idea (laughing as I write this!) that what we do OFF the field in the next 18 months will really set us ablaze. It is not rude, nor patronising to say that the majority of fans are either ignorant or uninterested in this side of Liverpool FC. What happens on the field is dream making, ethereal and memory burning, but none of it will live long without the ££££££££££ and management firepower.
Long live John Henry, Tom Werner and KK.
But live longer the financial backers who will make us great again!

On the debate about whether left footed players can play on the right, or right footed on the left. .
I do agree with ed that it can be a waste of talent at times. But that doesn't mean that when things aren't working on one wing, managers do regularly switch it up during games and put a right fotted winger down the left, left footed on the right.
Villa do it all the time, sometimes young will switch to the left and downing will go over to the right.
What needs to be remembered is most premiership players have a two good feet and can ping a bull in the box with either foot.
Im not saying we should sign A. Johnson and play him on the right, but if he is available and we manage to sign him and young ect. . and during a game things don't work, it always helps to change it a little and swap flanks with each other.
Sometimes works, and sometimes doesnt, but they can deffo still deliver a cross with either foot but also cut in and have a crack on goal with their favoured foot.
The longer this season conitinues and the less games I see Johnson playing in, I do believe he could be interested in a move.
Im sure the manager and Comolli have a short list of possible targets, but I do hope he is one of the options being considered.
Young and Johnson on either wings would be incredible.
It would be like waiting for a bus, we have needed natural wingers for many years, how great would it be if two came along at once :)

If they win the CL they will attract some top players because there will quite a few available in the summer (25+) and other top teams with any commercial sense will not be instrested in i.e. Forlan & Augero.

Sorry ed but for city and England he has looked bang average on the left and a potential world beater on the right (and he still gets good crosses in). You should know that some left footed players have blossomed on the "wrong" side and the same goes for right sided players who have been better on the left. Sorry if I don't agree with you but you know sometimes you may be wrong! {Ed001's Note - you are still missing the point, we have a striker that needs crosses in the middle, we need wingers to cross the ball not cut inside.}

Sorry ed but I think you are missing the point. You are suggesting we buy a potentially world class right winger but play him on the left to accommodate our striker? If you want a top left footed left winger then don't buy Johnson {Ed001's Note - except he is not a world class right winger, hence why he doesn't start often for City. He has experience and quality on the left, I would prefer to play him there where he can make the most of it. Playing a player on the wrong foot only benefits teams like Barca, otherwise it just closes down space and hampers teams attacking efforts.}

On the subject of Alonso, I bet 90% of fans would welcome him back in a heart beat. Is there any chance that Jose would be stupid enough to let me go or that we would have the smarts to go after him if there was a sniff of an opportunity? I reckon that in his role and given the style of his play he must have 5 very good years left in him.

Hey ed, i was thinking if Man city get Sanchez, i think Adam Johnson will have to sit on the bench, how about we go for Adam & pay city up to 15m for him. . perfect solution for right wing, Ashly young on the left & Adam Johnson on the right.
whats your thougt ed.? {Ed001's Note - I don't get that, why Johnson on the right? He was awesome on the left for Boro, he is a top class left winger with a great cross on him. Put him on the right and it makes it damn near impossible for him to put decent crosses in and we have Carroll in the middle.}
10 Mar 2011 12:59:14
We defo need a left back. I wud go for Gibbs, Arsenal. We need to get rid of , keep Lucas for cover and buy a world class DM, wish Mascherano had stayed. I wud love to see A.Johnson on the left and A.Young on the right getting the crosses in for Suarez and especially Carroll. Dnt really need a striker just yet as Kuyt is doing well up there and wud be perfect cover for nw. There's no point buying loads of players, they might not all gel. PT77 YNWA

I agree we need a left back but better options would be Baines or Coentrao also agree we need a top DM however I think you are wrong about A. Johnson. I would love him but I would play him wide right, for some reason he just looks better that side and his best performances have come wide right. I would have Turan for the left and while I think Kuyt should be used as a striker we would still need another, I would go for Llorente or Barrios.
10 Mar 2011 12:48:38
I wud love to see Phillip Lahm at LFC. We do need a world class DM, someone who wud break down the oppositions plays. Personally I wish Mascherano had stayed, he wudve been perfect alongside Gerrard and Meireles. Get rid of Poulsen but keep Lucas as cover. We need to wingers with skill and pace, preferably A.Johnson, A.Young, E.Elia. I dnt think we need to spend on a 3rd striker yet. We dnt need to add too
any players at once. We have Kuyt as cover up front. What do u think ED?
PT77 YNWA {Ed001's Note - personally I am glad mercenary Mash is gone, good riddance to him and I hope he enjoys warming the bench. We do need a 3rd striker, Kuyt is not going to be able to perform like that twice a week if Suarez or Carroll are out injured and to give us the ability to play 3 up top if wanted or needed.}

Personally i've stopped reading goal as i've realised they spin about twelve different stories from a three word quote, and still somehow manage to slant it against us every time. I find football365 is the best one for news as they write objectively most of the time . This is the most fun one though without a doubt.

Have loved watching the 2 x CL games on Tele this week. Really good stuff. Hope that our match is not back to the carp its mostly been so far. The Europa has a real bridesmaids feel about it. Do u know if we make any significant amount of money off if Ed, apart from match revenues?
KB
{Ed002's Note - Total revenue for Liverpool being in the Europa Cup this season including match day and TV revenue will be up to about £10M. A great deal less than the Chjampions League, but not to be sniffed at. In terms of prize money and market pool share etc. for this season, the comparison can be made by considering the following:
Champions League: Teams competing in the UEFA Champions League group stage this season can expect to receive a minimum amount of €7.2m according to the revenue distribution system in place for the 2010/11 campaign.
Each of the 32 clubs taking part in the UEFA Champions League group stage that kicks off on Tuesday will receive a participation bonus of €3.9m, plus a match bonus of €550,000 per group game played. On top of that, the following performance bonuses will be paid: €800,000 for every win and €400,000 for every draw in the group stage.
There are additional payments made to the teams that progress in the competition with €3m the reward for advancing to the round of 16, €3.3m for reaching the quarter-finals and €4.2m for a semi-final place. The winners of the final at Wembley Stadium on 28 May will collect a further €9m, with €5.6m going to the runners-up.
By way of example, any side winning all six group games would earn €15m – comprising €12m for their group stage performance plus €3m for getting to the last 16.
In addition, participating clubs will be entitled to a share of the market pool based on the commercial value of their domestic television market, the number of UEFA Champions League matches they play this season and their final position in the domestic league table last term. They will also keep their UEFA Champions League gate receipts.
Each of the 20 teams that contested the play-offs has received €2.1m.
Europa League: The 48 clubs embarking on UEFA Europa League group stage campaigns this week will receive increased prize money compared with the rewards on offer last season, when the rebranded competition began life as the successor to the UEFA Cup.
Each team taking part this term will collect a €640,000 participation bonus together with a match bonus of €60,000 for every match played in the group stage. They can add to this total minimum amount of €1m through a series of performance-related rewards, starting with €140,000 per win and €70,000 per draw in their group games.
By way of example, if a side wins all six of their group fixtures they will earn a total of €1.84m from the competition by Christmas.
Progress beyond that point will trigger further bonus payments worth: €200,000 for reaching the round of 32, €300,000 for the round of 16, €400,000 for the quarter-finals and €700,000 for the semi-finals.
The prize money for the clubs that go all the way to the final will be €3m for the eventual winner and €2m for the runner-up at the Dublin Arena on 18 May 2011.
Participating teams will also be entitled to a variable amount depending on the commercial value of their national media rights, their position in their national championship last season, and their performance during this UEFA Europa League campaign. A side could pick up, at best, €6.44m not counting the market pool share.}

Looking a lot of the wishlists and teams for next season, people using a 4-3-3 formation, is that really the best formation for us? Personally, with the players that we have now, and some new signing, the 4-4-2 Hodgson was trying to implement may work for us. What is really great to see is the flexibility in tactics the management and players are showing, 4-4-2, 4-3-3, 4-2-3-1, 3-5-2 - all formations used under Kenny.
Team I would pick for for tonight- 4-4-2 - Reina - Johnson - Carra - Skrtel - Wilson - Maxi - Meireles - Lucas - Cole - Kuyt - Pacheco.

I'm not saying he wants to come to us or that we will sign him but I can tell u Liverpool have inquired about a possible 35m swoop for Sanchez, the deal could include Martin skrtle 28-30m plus Martin . . . As I said. He might not be interested but inquiry has been made by the mighty reds YNWA JFT96

Am i the only one that is not bothered if Gerrard or Reina leaves us? Gerrard is not getting any younger and if Reina's heart isn't with us then so be it. They are both replaceable, i'm not saying i want them to leave but if they want to, let them, the only player at the moment i would hate to lose is Suarez, players like him, with skill, pace, workrate and only 24 are much harder to replace and usually cost a damn site more than we paid. Also, Man U lost Ranaldo, Arsenal lost Henry, all teams have lost top players but for some strange reason it never seems to effect them and in most cases teams seem more balanced after their 'big' players have left!

Speaking of playing players out of position Ed what would you make of Agger as a possible CM in the future, he's good on the ball and i think he could one day make a good make shift midfielder, same for Johnson as a winger
Barry B {Ed002's Note - It is impossible to say without seeing him play there. I am not sure why you would want to play him out of position in any case.}
Its just an opinion of mine, i say he would be good playing in the middle, whenever i see him get forward he looks confident on the ball. Just look at Kuyt, he went from CF to RW, Lucas AM to DM, Kelly CB to RB. I think Agger could be as good as Busquets off Barca and could switch from CB to CM whenever they needed cover.
Barry B
10 Mar 2011 09:46:04
Alright lads,
Looking forward to the game tonight but im a bit worried with our options up front. Suarez can't play and i think Carroll will only be risked if we are chasing a goal in the last 30 mins. That would leave us with Kuyt and N'Gog as our recognised first team strikers. I hope to god he doesn't play N'Gog, but i can't see KK starting Pacheco or any other younger lads. We are looking a bit thin in all area's, it would of been a help if Kelly & Aurelio were not injured, then we could of moved Johson on to the RW and to push Kuyt up front with maybe J Cole.

My source has told me that Gerrard will be leaving for Cardiff this summer as he was quoted as saying "I need to play top flight football, and increase my chances of winning the premier league"
On another note, Reina has been linked with a move to Valencia in a quest to become Spain No.1 keeper.
You guys might aswel jump on the bandwagon with me and turn to the otherside of merseyside.

{Ed001's Note - because his ambition is to be Spain's number one keeper, it wouldn't matter how well he played the number one for Spain will always play in Spain.}
In the article released in last Saturday's Guardian, he is quoted as saying his future lies in England and he refused to rule out Manure as a possible destination. He also claims in the same article that Torres did rule out a move to Old Toilet. I think he'd rather stay here in the UK with whichever club, than step on the toes of his great friends Ilker and Victor, JMO.

Hey ed, in regards to Pepe, I am not sure how much of a concern he sees it as not being able to be the no.1 keeper for Spain whilst playing in England. The interview he did with Sid Lowe recently he intimated he had no desire to go back to spain anytime soon and is looking to remain in England, so I think if he were to go it would be for trophy related reasons if anything.
DownUnderRed.
10 Mar 2011 06:57:09
Im not Macca but I can give you an update on transfers.
Benzema, Young, Adam and Marveaux will sign.
We want a DM to replace Poulsen and M'Vila has been identified as the man to do so.
We want a LB to replace Konchesky, we are very interested in Enrique, Baines, and Izaguirre.
We want a winger to replace Maxi, big interest in Payet, Dszdudszak and Turan. However Turan has not been watched for a while due to injuries hence the Ed's saying its unlikely a deal for Turan will be struck.
We may, just may get another striker as KK wants another one but 8 signings may be too much work. We are interested in Gervinho, Hoarau and one other striker but I can't remember his name, Ed, do you know who it may be?
{Ed006's Note - No idea}
Benzema
Adam
Young
Payet/ Dzsudzsak/ Turan
Enrique/ Baines
M'Vila
Marveaux

Maxi
Cole

Regarding Sanchez.
Unfortunately for us, I don't see him joining. To begin with, there's no shred of evidence to suggest he's been even looked at, let alone bidded for. In fact it would seem that Commolli and Dalglish have no interest in the player.
I'm not sure if that's because they're unconvinced of the player's physical attributes, or if he'll be too expensive and unrealistic a target, hence the fairly firm interest in Payet.
Even if we were to make an acceptable offer to his club, would the player turn down huge wages at Chelsea, Champions League footy and the opportunity of immediately challenging for major trophies to play in the Europa for us? Don't think so, sadly.
The player will, as the eds also believe, most likely end up at Chelsea. They had "serious" discussions with Udinese in January, which didn't go very well, apparently. But I'm sure they'll soon be back in for him.
Manure wouldn't afford him, not that they need him anyway. Inter, like Barca and Juve, I'm not convinced if they'll be willing to meet his valuation.
City might just sneak in, though
Whatever the case might be, I don't see young Sanchez moving to us, sadly. We're out of the equation. Sanchez, Aguero, Hazard, Subotic are just pipe dreams.
I've heard all too frequently people suggesting that we should raid the Dortmund for Subotic and their other players.
Well, do those folk realise that Dortmund play in front of 80 000 fans every week; are on the verge of lifting the Bundes; will be playing in the CL next season, and above all, are a hugely talented team with a great trainer in Jurgen Klopp?
Why would Subotic, Kagawa etc give up all that for Europa? If they choose to leave, there'd be much "better" options for them.
Look, I'm not being a defeatist here, just facing up to facts. It's gonna an uphill battle for us to attract those high-level players in our current situation.
We may well succeed in getting maybe 2 or 3 . Anything can happen. But is it likely to, unlikely.
Based on what we tried to do in Jan and the facts we have, I'd make the following deduction:
In:
CB: Richards
LB: Enrique/ Izaguirre/ Baines
WINGERS: Marveaux, Young, Payet
CM: Adam, M'Villa,
FW: Benzema/ Toivonen/ Hoarao/ Winkel
Our most likely arrivals would be some of these players.
That should be near the ballpark. What's your take, ed?
Thanks

As all proper fans know, LFC is now a potent force in the transfer market as well as a proper team with sweet prospects. We have a legendary manager who is 'at home' at L4 and doing it solely for LFC.
When Kenny was elsewhere his heart was in that particular team, but here, at Anfield its something else. Kenny has waited patiently for this monent, and I think its the right time for him to be here. All those years since '91 haven't been wasted, they've just been innappropriate.
Now with Kenny and with NESV, we have a bright future of footballing skill and joy. See his face - its beautiful. Its a passion for all things good. Check out his '91 demeanour to his 2011 face - its joyous.
A man who knows football and LFC like he does is a joy to behold. When was the last time we could sing with belief and unswerving appreciation? Kenny can spot a winner and can enthuse more than any Scouse no-mark. He is a catalyst for good. He tells players they're worthwhile. He makes them better. I think the Master is back to educate the pretenders, and with a smile befitting a legend.
When the title is won (by Kenny) his name and deeds will become more folklore than Shanks. And Bob. And Joe. And Ronnie Moran (who we seem to under-appreciate).
The times ahead are glorious. When Kenny failed at NUFC and Celtic, it was because they weren't LFC. Kenny is 'pool. And it is written that Kenny will become more of a legend than he already is.
I can't wait.
Give me his humour and witty scathings till I die.
I salute you, Sir.

RMD {Ed001's Note - it is Gerardo Bruna, plays on the wing or up front for the stiffs. He was listed as Argentinian until recently which confused a lot of people (including me!).}
he is Argentinian. would be nice to see him play as he's on form for the reserves, but would like to see Pacheco over him in the braga game. mendy is also in the squad which is showing that we are on the stretch for defensive cover

I think Spearing shows great promise, bearing in mind he had back injuries which has obviously limited his first team opportunities, he hasn't had much pitch time.
I think he has played superbly of what I've seen and I fully support him to cement a starting XII place. Can't be worse than Poulsen, could be better than Lucas. Of course, I won't dare to compare him to Masch but give him 5 years and see what the score is.
I think he has a the potential to be a fantastic first team player.'
Have I misunderstood the rules of football here or something? I was always under the impression that there was a starting eleven. Maybe this is the only way Spearing will start a game!

I like to think that because of our previous No. 9, we have learnt our lesson that we want players who want to play for LFC, with/ without titles or CL football. Whichever player we sign, be it Young or Benzema or Marveaux or anyone else, Kenny will know that each player will not only improve the squad, but most importantly bleed for the shirt

If Pepe Reina wants to leave the lt's swap him for Arsenal's Jack Wilshere and Keiran Gibbs, Straight swap for two English lads.
If Steven Gerrard wants to leave then let's swap him plus £20m for Gareth Bale or him plus £10m for Michael Essien.
If Jovanovic wants to leave then I'd take a decent fish supper and a couple of cans to seal the deal.
Seriously, if you want to go then GO! . .Under Kenny we'll only have Liverpool players playing for Liverpool.

- - - - - -
You do realise that in 5 years Spearing will be 28, don't you? We don't have time to wait for a player who will only ever be average reach his peak. He'll never play regularly for Liverpool - Coady is faster, harder in the tackle, better in the pass, better leadership skills and a far better shot, even though there's a 5 year age gap between the two.
As the Ed pointed put, he's also very slow; as well as having a tendency to panic and pass into a vacuum or hoof it up the pitch.
In my opinion, he'll never surpass the level Lucas is currently at (if he even equals it, which is doubtful).
The only reason he's still at the club is because he's a local and a fan. He would have been shipped out ages ago had he been from anywhere else (I'm not saying that's a bad thing). If we're looking to get CL next season then he'll be shipped out in the summer - he's not even good enough to be a squad player for a top 4 team (in my opinion).
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
In 5 years time he'll be 26 going on 27, and tbh i agree with you he will never be LFC standard a good player for a championship squad/ back-up in a prem team at best, i went to school with him and johnny pringle i have no idea where he went though he was quality whenever i played against him in PE =/ he was twice the player spearing was (at that time)
