hello eds.
hello fellow reds.
just read more about Liverpool.F.C history and the great meaning behind "you'll never walk alone".
It made me proud and emotional to celebrate and support such a great club. This year I learned a lot about this club and understood the passion of fellow supporters.
Wish u all a merry Christmas and a very happy and prosperous new year.
Thank u eds for u r efforts.

{Ed002's Note - Have a great holiday.}
RE: Your post, the meaning of youll never walk alone is from a soundtrack to a musical called Carousel, something which i'm sure Liverpool fans in the 60's would of watched all the time.
It maybe perhaps that Gerry and the Pacemakers did a remake of the song and it was catchy, along with a lot of the beatles songs at the time which the kop would sing. Its down to Bill Shankly, who heard this song being sung, decided that this would become our anthem.
24 Dec 2014 15:15:53
To all the Eds and fellow Reds,
I just wanted to say, have a great Christmas and a Peaceful and Prosperous New Year!

Hi edds and fellow reds. Happy Christmas to one and all. if it has been asked before I'm sorry. This SUPER formation Rogers has bee n using. is it his coaching coming to the fore or was it suggested to him. also with Manquillo and Moreno available why are they not being selected
{Ed001's Note - I am told it was his idea, though I doubt any idea is ever truly free from being influenced by others. He can take the credit though, he likes the back 3. Those 2 aren't being selected because he prefers other players in the wide areas in this system.}
I like us with 3 at the back as we look more organized and comfortable. i'd play Moreno as our LWB/LW as he is made for that role but to be fair Markovic is doing a good job.
Merry Xmas & Happy New Year to all he eds and fellow fans who make this site what it is.
Thanks for the reply. just to nagg a little more. what did Rogers say that made Salah turn us down
{Ed001's Note - Ed002 has explained that repeatedly if you use the search function.}
Moreno in for Henderson, Henderson in for Gerrard, Can in for Lucas? That is until one of those three upset me, then I'll never play them again!
Mmm, I might have a go at this Football Manager malarkey, seems pretty easy lol.
". but Moreno is a left back" you say? Right lado that's upset me no end! It's off the reserves for you young fella me lad! You'll be telling me you fist name isn't Hector next!
Merry Christmas Eds

Edd002, no pre Christmas cracker joke from the finest?
Daughter and son have made a tunnel in my pockets. I'll be drinking a lot of jack daniels.
Happy and healthy Christmas ed's and all.
{Ed002's Note - Have a nifty time Al.}
24 Dec 2014 13:22:35
Dear Eds, Is Jeremy Menez linked to anyone after his brilliant start at AC?
{Ed002's Note - No.}
24 Dec 2014 12:56:50
Hello everyone and merry xmas.
You may not have noticed but i have been away for a long time. Looks like my experiences in Crimea did offer some value after all.
I am pleased to read some of the banter posts that i have missed, and i hope to be able to make some minor comments as i go along
Regarding the reds, we are making some progress and personally i am pleased with Lallana, Markovic, Sterling, Coutinho, Can, Alberto, Manquillo and Ricky Lamberts contribution when they have had the chance.
Not all is lost boys, you never know, if our 'soot juggler' Sturridge comes back things will start looking good again. Fabulous ball control and skill, can't wait to see him playing again
Happy xmas from my hospital bed !
{Ed002's Note - I wish you a fast and full recovery Tel.}
Have a great Christmas Tel. Get well soon and hurry back! The page needs good posters like you!
24 Dec 2014 13:20:15

{Ed007's Note - I noticed you hadn't been on the Utd site, Tel, I was starting to think you were an alter-ego of Sydney!! Sorry to hear you've been poorly, get well soon and have a great Christmas bud.}
24 Dec 2014 22:06:45
I was just wondering on your where a outs. Glad to have you back. Happy holidays.
24 Dec 2014 11:58:37
Just saw the Rodgerspress conference. Stating that Ballotelli was "struggling to adapt to our style of play". This raises many question:
1. Had Rodgers seen Ballotelli prior to signing him?
2. With a lack of goals, is Rodgers still so stubborn that he can't tweak our play style to get us through the sticky patch? Ballotelli needs service, and he will score.
3. Ballotelli must be have played his last game for us, surely. Otherwise, Rodgers has made a mistake by stating he's not suited to us.
Last couple of games, I actually thought Mario plated well and was unlucky. He's prob on his way, but I wish Rodgers had done more to make it work. He was probably a "committee signing" anyway :-)
24 Dec 2014 12:31:59
Far from truth, Ballo was not born yesterday and he played in a much similar 4-3-3 with one up top whole an year at Milan.
They don't have a diamond or 2 up front.
I agree that he has struggled with our style of play which is to score more than the other team.
Our style of play ? What style of play ?
Oh, you mean hundreds of short passes to one another in our own half. Then passing it back to the goalkeeper ?
Or hundreds of short passes in our own half which breaks down and the other team score from this.
Style of play ?
24 Dec 2014 11:28:05

We have a handy Christmas were 3 wins are very possible 9 points could turn this season around
Mystic meg post!! Here we go!!
Day dreaming post more like.
I'd love to share your optimsm dezyboy, but it looks like we'll need 70-72 points to get 4th place this season- depending on whether the gunners have a great run of results.
To get that total we will need to get an average of more than 2.6 points per game from now until May, which means winning five out of every six games.
Miracles are always possible of course, and with a fit sturridge maybe we could just possibly scrape that number of wins, but if you were a neutral you wouldn't bet anything on lfc getting 4th place. Especially not with a very average back up keeper starting every game.
I think we might have a heroic surge up the table when we have a good striker back in the first eleven, but it will be too little and too late. The truth is that Rodgers has almost certainly already blown it, thanks to a terrible first half of the season.
Why have we ended up with the current reserve goalkeeper scenario?
Why did we gamble 16m on a marquee striker who didn't suit our playing style?
Why do our defenders keep losing concentration, or being beaten in the challenge by a player showing more determination, as skrtel was for arsenal's first goal?
Why does he insist on playing Gerrard, lovren, johnson and enrique, even at times when they were clearly not in very good form?
Why did it take half a season for him to find a formation that finally got some good performances out of the squad?
These mistakes are too fundamental and too big for the owners to ignore.
Yeah all fear the mighty
Burnley
Swansea (ain't half bad to be fair but very beatable)
Leicester
Tell me there not winnable ??
In the Crazy World of Brendan Rodgers he thinks that three draws would be impressive.
Dennis, replace the word 'impressive' with 'outstanding'. there ya go
Swansea ain't half bad?!
The arrogance of Liverpool fans always astounds me.
Swansea have been playing good football this season. They've got an inform striker, and they've sorely missed a few individuals in the middle of the park.
Why do we have to belittle other clubs? Some people on here did it vs Basel and ate their words. It really gets my goat when we should be thinking Swansea is a guaranteed 3 pointer.
You can never tell with football.
On paper, Burnley should be an easy win.
But. . .
Easy games over the Christmas period.
Then Lucas off to Fiorentina.
Followed by much speculation as to who is coming and going.
Fred Karno's Circus.
There all winnable games
God this site is depressing
Last 2 games we played decent miserable #^@&£% $
But the reality was we lost and drew, you don't get points for artistic impression, ask Mourinho.
24 Dec 2014 09:25:46
Just read that former red Luis Garcia and Atletico de Kolkata won the indian super league. Little Luis gave us some good memories and nice to see he's still winning titles
Also to all eds may I take this opportunity to thank you for all your efforts this year. Have a great xmas and new year.
Enjoy the festivities as its only a couple of weeks before the madness of the transfer window!!
{Ed002's Note - Enjoy the holidays Archie.}
24 Dec 2014 05:47:26
Hi Ed002,
is it OK to put an offer for a player before the window is open? Is it possible the clubs work out a deal before the transfer window is open on Jan 1st and then complete the paper work? Or is it that the clubs mustn't make any contact about a possible transfer before the window is open on Jan 1st? thanks.
{Ed002's Note - All the work can be done in advance Tom. People are negotiating year round in some cases.}
24 Dec 2014 10:01:47
Ed002, do you think any major transfer would happen in this window across clubs?
Merry xmass to you Ed. Keep on pouring info and have fun.
{Ed002's Note - "Major" is subjective but certainly agreements will be reached for some significant moves for the summer. It is possible that a couple of moves in and out could happen with Real Madrid. Elsewhere I am aware of an agent looking for a new home for at least one very expensive striker.}
24 Dec 2014 11:07:33
I am assuming that expensive striker is Cavani Ed002?
{Ed002's Note - He is indeed being hawked around again.}
24 Dec 2014 11:07:54
Ed002 expensive strike cavani? Maybe you can't say Ed002 just curious. Thanks.
{Ed002's Note - It is.}
24 Dec 2014 11:32:05
Thanks Ed002 any idea were he might end up?
{Ed002's Note - I cannot see anyone buying him at the asking price.}
24 Dec 2014 11:32:35
Thanks Ed002, I have one more to you, As this is just curiosity.
Do you think there is a chance Higuain ll move in jan or Summer, if so which club likely?
He is one of ma fav player and wonderful striker.
{Ed002's Note - I don't see a move in January.}
My guess would be Cavani to City
{Ed002's Note - Manchester City are subject to sanctions that will continue to restrict their business Chris. I don't see how such a move is possible at this time.}
24 Dec 2014 14:23:57
Just to make things clear. This is NOT Ed002 saying Edinson Cavani is joining Liverpool on the 1st lol.
Arsenal to shock us ed and sign him?
{Ed002's Note - Not at the price being asked. This is something for the Arsenal page or the European pages.}
If PSG are looking to recoup the whole transfer fee they paid for Cavani, then they are deluded. They should not have matched his release clause in the first place. No way is Cavani worth 65 million euros, 40-45 million max. I really cannot think of any top team that need a striker like him or afford him in the first place, he will be stuck at PSG for a while imo.
Cavani is overrated i believe, doesn't have the element of responsibility or vigour that other top strikers have, at least that's what I've seens when I've watched him, just doesn't play with enough balls and passion and arrogance.
24 Dec 2014 08:30:51
Ed's, Reds, and EMS.
I read an article form BILD saying Joachim Loew may be looking at a return to club management? He does not seem to have done much at club level before?
We all know how well he has Germany playing football, albeit with an extremely talented group of players.
Anyone on here have further info on him? Would he be a viable option for LFC? I have heard his name linked with Arsenal before.
All I really know about him is that he picks his nose and eats it? (as seen on soccer am)
24 Dec 2014 10:48:21
Either adam has a huge fan following to be mentioned separately or no one regards him as human :-D ;-)
I don't think it's for any reason other than I am always willing to offer an opinion. I don't consider myself to have superior knowledge to any other posters Reet.
Regarding Joachim, my dad would be bitterly disappointed as my mum would start watching the games (he is firmly wedged in between Hugh Grant and John Bishop in her 'dream husband' list).
I think tactically and in terms of coaching he is absolutely class. I'm not sure what he'd be like at building a team though because Bayern Munich basically hand him a ready made team for the international side. Would hebe willing to work under a DOF to help him with the transfer side of things is the better question. There is no disputing his credentials as a coach/tactician.
Also Reet, I am not human. I'm actually Ewok. Ahriibaaa
Reet I like most on here follow good posters and value their opinion, although sadly their are a few who I'll dismiss, and don't read as soon as I see there name.
I reckon everyone does this to some degree in their heads.
24 Dec 2014 11:23:10
And I am a Na'vi:-D
P.s hope you didn't take my original reply to the heart it was meant as a joke apologies if it offended you
Reet, there was nothing wrong with your original post haha. I do have a sense of humour (albeit a weird one)
Aren't Na'vi blue? Urgh
24 Dec 2014 11:45:41
And they can fly those dragons and very good with arrows :-D
I feel we may have gone off on a tangent Reet ;)
24 Dec 2014 13:21:25
A whole different circle mate ;-)
24 Dec 2014 08:30:48
The past is a place of reference, not a place of residence.
Dream big for 2015.
Happy Christmas eds and reds.

A very happy Christmas eve to all.
Will be spending lot more time here again now

Seems I will have to take out my worse side again. Beware be very afraid ;-) :-D
24 Dec 2014 06:13:31
Thanks everyone for their views on Ødegaard. From what I hsvr watched on YouTube he looks onr hell of a talent
but will probably have to fly to Norway to see him for the 90 :-)
24 Dec 2014 08:16:31
You could fly down to the Alliance arena or at Ajax to see him.
24 Dec 2014 05:51:23
Dear Eds and fellow supporters of all clubs, Merry Christmas and as Oprah Winfrey once said, "Cheers to a new year and another chance for us to get it right." . A Happy 2015 and enjoy the corrections you make ;)
{Ed001's Note - thank you mate, and I hope your Crimbo and New Year are happy and filled with joy.}
23 Dec 2014 23:22:01
i know there is a lot of fans out there who like lucas and think he should play instead of allen or gerrard, i think we should cash in on him in january because he has not been the same since his injury, plus we could use Can instead, it would give Can a run of games to get into the pace of our league and to get better with the same opportunities that sterling had to get better the same can be applied to Can, I see jordan Ibe getting a run of games at derby and getting rave reviews, so i think if Can gets a run of games then he could become our main Def - Mid which could add some needed stability to our defence all the top sides in europe have top Def - Mids, plus i think lucas is too light weight who does not offer that much anymore, i may be wrong but i doubt it, only time will tell even Markovic and lallana has got better in the last couple of games
I've always been a fan of Lucas. He plays from the heart that bleeds for the club. But the injury has definitely changed him. I think a Napoli switch is in the making and I'm sure he will do well there too.
Id rather cash in on Allen thanks, Lucas offers a solid defensive midfield protection that Allen and Gerrard are incapable of, personally I think the centre midfield should be can and Lucas.
Mrdennis, he did do at one time but after his injury he has not been the same in his defensive duties, he is not that good, there are better Def-Mids out there plus we have Can who is a lot better, he is bigger and stronger and can pass the ball forward, jay spearing bled for the club and ran his heart out and put a 100% in each game but because he was small people never gave him a chance, as I've said we have cover for lucas so we should get has much money as we can for him,
