  1. Would have rickie back as cover but I'm not sure he's come, why swap Liverpools starting line up for our bench Love the quote from the Liverpool message board!
  2. I only got 19 but I forgot until 10 seconds to go that current or ex recent player like lambert count, my mind still doesn't think of them as premier league gaol scorers!

    He has or more accurately is serving the punishment handed down by the court to ban him from football is part of this weird modern trend for the public to be outraged by everything. Yes he has been found guilty of a serious crime but why should he be banned from a well paid high profile job should bankers convicted of serious (non financial) crimes be banned from earning large sums? He hasn't apologised because that would end his appeal as it would be an admission of guilt and he clearly believes he is innocent of the charge. The case has always been an odd one as his co defendant was cleared of the same charge and it's interesting that the review has been fast tracked, if the conviction is overturned should he be allowed to play again or is the allegation enough to end his career?
  4. I never mentioned divine right and they certainly don't have one but the current market says if you play premier league football for ten years you and yours will be setup for good if your sensible. If someone said to me do a crap job for the next two years and you'll never need to work again I'd sure as hell take it and why shouldn't he just because he rose to the top late? Don't be so silly!
  5. The money aspect really does come into it with Rickie he has had a very short career at the top on real good money and hasn't previously had the chance to make much in signing on fees after big money moves. I bet his transfer this summer and wages at Liverpool have massively boosted his retirement pot meaning him and his get to live a noticeably better life when he hangs up his boots. It's easy to forget he spent most of his career in the lower leagues earning much more modest sums and until he signed for us was probably planning for a career after football which he may no longer need. Now back to laughing at lovren who really goes look to have fared the worst out of all the leavers this summer anyone want him back?
  6. Your trolling powers are weak old man.
  7. No but singling out Jos and not mentioning the others you imply that you accept they were fans favourites, your words in your opening post and that you agree with amazon's description. If you think half the players on the list are neither legends or fans favourites why single out Jos?
  8. For me that's the point, people are always putting attention seeking look at me stuff in biographies but this is trying to tell it how it really is nobody talks about the crap and the negative when there name is attached to it.
  9. This for me, would massively reduce the number of games and up the value of them all getting rid of this pointless league stage where clubs play awful sides as they simply can't cope or don't care!
  10. Sadly I think he will either retire at the end of the season or finish his career on loan in the championship, which isn't really the fairy tale ending his story deserved.
  11. I'll be amazed and disappointed if he is ignored again, he has been a stand out player for us not only this season but last as well and right back is a slot England have struggled with since Gary Neville retired it's becoming a big like left back before Ashley Cole!
  12. Lovren is only getting games as he is all they have, both he and the Liverpool deffence in general are garbage at the minute! Chamber I think would have seen more bench time but for the gunners injury problems!
  13. Do people really believe in this myth about heads being turned on international duty? The players were all hot property with or without england caps how does chambers fit this silly story or Walcott and Ox? How about Forster should we hope he gets dropped? Clyne should be England's current right back on form and I hope hodgson picks him as he deserves it! One day he will probably leave for a shed load of money to a top Four side but that will be nothing to do with strive g taping him up on england duty!
  14. Besides which this left footed right footed combination thing is just rubbish that has spilled over from champ manager plenty of right footer play the left side of the pair perfectly well.
  15. I knew a return to the own brand rubbish would mean a fall back to the terrible quality, my umbro shirts are completely free from pulls and other defects despite years of use and washing but all my older 's' brand shirts look and feel horrible with numerous pulls or logo peels/fades. Let's hope the club kiss and make up with Adidas or find another decent company to work with!
  16. Decent performance and beat a side that don't loose at home to anyone very often, got a little bit of luck but then so did they! I much prefer the look of the England side when we get away from 442, some of the personnel could do with a swap I wouldn't play Wilshere let alone as a holding midfielder he needs to go back to Arsenal and build some form. The right back situation is laughable I think the whole saints team should warm up in Clyne for England T-Shirts it's crazy that we are using an inexperienced centre half to fill in at right back when Clyne suits that formation perfectly. Jones is a liability at the minute and is another who needs to go back to his club and earn another call up short term I'd put Jags back in but we need to develop someone to take the role long term which means Stones and Chambers need to both be playing week in week out and centre back which doesn't seem to be happening. No we won't win Euro 2016 but we will qualify and perform ok with a young side, not the finished article but definite signs of improvement. Still can't believe the number of muppets on here that said Welbeck wasn't good enough for us!
  17. I think he's on a hiding to nothing, with the quality they have everyone expects them to beat the smaller teams comfortably and with style which I think they will do but for him to have the same outstanding success with them that he had with us he will need to be pushing very hard for top 4, that's what the fans and chairman expect and I just don't think the team has it in them. I expect him to join the long list of spurs failures shortly!
  18. He will be if he doesn't keep his performance level high, that's the advantage of having a quality player to bring in and not Jos as a last resort!
  19. You mean he is Hulls Imants Bleidelis or Cléber Chala? They both worked out well for us!
  20. Saw him make his Barnsley debut against Sheffield Wednesday last season and get sent off early doors for two stupid tackles in between which he was worthless. Big time attitude for a small time player!
  21. If he won't sign a new contract and has proved his fitness he will be sold in January, simple as. Hopefully we will continue our good form and he will sign a new deal as he is quality but otherwise I will fully support his sale!
  22. I feel disappointed he's gone but can't work out why when I analyse it rationally, in the two years he has been here he has contributed very little so realy we've lost nothing except a big wage we were paying for a player that didn't contribute an awful lot. Gaston has always been an odd one I think we all just really wanted him to be a success he was the first really big money wow signing we made after returning to the top so it's only natural we all feel a bit disappointed.
  23. So he should he's the manager after all! Pleased with the summer business still a bit annoyed we lost Chambers before we had a chance to enjoy watching him grow but these things happen the ins look good particularly Tadic who seems to have replaced Lallana which I thought would be the hardest job. Little worried about the strike force but then I was last season!
  24. Not many work out do they!
  25. He can't be on much so I'd keep him about until at least the end of the season
