    We don't sell to them. Offer City, Chelsea a bit of a discount. And piss them off in the process

    I know this is radical, but I'm just putting it out there. How about we don't sell him?

    But..but..Money? Plus players run the game these days. Plus if he doesnt want us, we dont want him. Plus he will poison the team changing room. Plus other excuses for not having a backbone and being unable to manage an individual.

    But mainly Money.

    I'm still convinced he will end up at Liverpool this summer, we can't go a whole summer without selling them someone.

    I honestly cannot see us keeping him , but if he does a Morgan , fair play to him , and those responsible for convincing him to stay for I more entire season .

    Hurry up and appoint your new manager so he can "decide" he doesn't want VD and we can get back to buying him <cheers>

    I always thought that it was a common condition amongst Liverpudlians.

    Aldo is a colossal kopite helmet.

    Get on his twitter account, and wind him up, he bites dead easy. He's hilarious.

    It's because everyone at Liverpool know Saints won't budge.

    In fairness he's saying that's what could happen rather than necessarily encouraging him to do so (though that probably underpins what he's saying).

    The reaction from a large proportion of their fan base and former players to this transfer has been incredibly poor.

    No respect

    Tobes - just a quick one mate. I'm not afraid to say when I'm wrong, and I genuinely thought RK would be found out at Everton and sparred a bit with you on it when he left to join you.

    Seems he's doing a good job, so hands up, I was wrong.

    (Still think the man is a duplicitous nugget, but there we go).

    Nice one mate <ok>

    He's done a cracking job in season 1, big summer for us, with Lukaku almost certainly going, so we'll see what next season brings. I actually enjoyed going to home games again for the first time in 3 seasons.

    I genuinely thought he was overrated. I still do, a bit, but he's doing a good job with your bunch, no doubt.

    He got us defensively organised, and got the squad fit, which was where his predecessor failed miserably.

    I'll be interested to see how he takes us on from here.
