As ridiculous as the situation is, we're NOT a laughing stock. In fact everyone is quite sympathetic towards us and a lot of other fans have said they hope we keep all our players (including some Liverpool fans!).
People who say he wants to go because he loves the club are forgetting that a short while ago he said his love is for Southampton now. I know people will dismiss it but i genuinely believe he is a saints fan now rather than a liverpool fan. The way he was singing along with OWTS on the lap of honour showed that as well.
We've just made £80million and are guaranteed to boost that up to £150 million by the end of next season. If we're in a difficult financial position after that, with the lowest wage bill in the Prem, then I will bite off my own penis.
I like the fact he says "the team CAN do better" rather than "the team COULD HAVE done better". Suggests that not all the players are looking to jump ship as some believe.
