Oh I don't disagree with you. I think the one club man legend status is very important too. Was just saying his move hasn't been for nothing just because he didn't win anything.

Okay maybe not nothing and I take your point but was it worth it? I'd also say that he was probably expecting to win things by joining a club like Liverpool.

But yeah I don't think we're too far apart in what we're saying.

Maybe worth considering their career post-football, too. Would Matt Le Tiss have the career with Sky Sports if he'd gone to Spurs and won nothing? He scored a lot of goals from midfield and mostly worldies, which gives him a certain status, but being a one-club man, in my opinion, gives him a unique status. Notable enough for Sky to hire him. He's also got the ambassadorial role, too.

Did Jamie Redknapp win much/anything in his career? I think the punditry thing is more about the individual. There are lots of pundits on there who were just solid top flight pros, not superstars

Have you quoted the wrong post there mate?

I would have loved him to stay, but given the respective trajectories of both clubs since he left, the quality of player he has since had the chance to play with and the massive increase in his bank balance, I doubt he'll be crying too hard into his Nivea.

I will concede that before he left we had something special going on, but his departure was preceded by that of Pochettino and before that, Nicola Cortese.
He could have summised (and history would have proved him correct) that our bubble was not that far from bursting and his chances of success were much greater at Liverpool.

Very quite at the moment...............too quite :bandit:
 
Wahrscheinlich kein starkes WLAN, um dies zu senden, aber ...

Ich bin weg mit all dem Internet und wenn ich meine Prioritäten überall habe, möchte ich unbedingt etwas über die Transfers von Heiligen wissen!

Ich kann kaum eine Seite laden, also wenn jemand mich mit starken Gerüchten oder Neuigkeiten aktualisieren könnte, wäre das erstaunlich! Ich vermute, dass nichts passiert, da es Heilige sind, aber ich kann nicht anders als mich zu wundern!

Prost

Pardon? Obviously your signal is playing havoc with your language settings.
 
I think its fair to say that Adam would have had that sort of status though.

Especially those around my age or younger.


I suppose so.

The manner of his leaving was pretty ****ing shabby; but I can’t really blame him for trying to reach the heights in his career, and for seeing Liverpool as a better bet than us to do that with.

Loads of great memories anyway. I can’t be arsed to bear a grudge against any of the players who were part of our fairytale recovery from the depths of League One.
