    We borrowed him, rather than pay £35m for him...

  5. I love it when Mousers come onto our board and try to wum us.

    It's almost as though they don't realise how inferior they are to us, now.

    Ha ha ha ha ha ha - Nearly wet myself at the jokes you clowns are coming out with - Inferior? A semi decent season and half and you are the best team in the world LMFAO! Manager about to be served bird, a team of journey men and sicknotes and you lot will fold quicker than a bad hand at poker - I'll just sit back and watch with glee!

    <doh> Epic fail.

    I created the fake story to show how fickle (as you've proved) some people are at believing any sort of tripe written down and to show how easy a football journo's job is.

    Regretted that yet?

    <laugh> Brilliant.

    A semi-decent season would be fighting for fifth. We're not doing that, because we're in third. You are, because Arsenal aren't up to the task.

    How can you be sure you're finishing 3rd and if you're happy with that then more fool you. Surely if you're as good as you say you are, you should be aiming for 1st - As Shankly once said "1st is 1st, 2nd is nowhere!" We know we aren't going to win the league but you lot are no better than the bitter blues - Like I said, a seasin and half of decent form and you're better than Barca - Clowns!

    Which goes to show how stupid he was, out of 15 seasons he led Liverpool to nowhere 12 times. He was more familiar with being nowhere than he was with being somewhere.

    Notice I used present tense. If I were to use future tense, I would've said you were in sixth.

    As for the Shankley quote, it's meaningless in this day and age. In his day, finishing top of the league was the biggest achievement and the only way to qualify for a place at Europe's top table. In the modern era, finishing third guarantees the same opportunity (and the money that goes with it), just as fourth can offer an opportunity. Teams that finished fourth in their league have won the Champion's League in the past, which proves how coming top is secondary to qualifying for the Champion's League in this day and age. Think about it another way - a run to the final of the Europa League made Fulham about £8m, which is nothing compared to what the Manchester clubs made this season being dumped into the tournament because they failed to get out of their Champion's League group.

    Also, can you provide a direct quote from any Spurs fan on this board where he says we are superior to Barca? If not, don't try to bluff around it.

    Spurs finished 5th and 4th over the last two seasons. No Spurs fan at the beginning of the season expected to mount a serious title challenge. Spurs fans hoped for a minimum of 4th, hopefully 3rd. Currently, Spurs are 3rd with a healthy gap on 4th and an even healthier gap on 5th. Why should it be "more fool you" when Spurs are not only where the Spurs fans hoped they would be, they are cemented there for a near future.

    Shankly's comment can only apply to a team that actually has realistic plans to win the title season in, season out. Spurs don't expect to win the league this season, but there is every possibility that Spurs could win it next season.

    Also, no Spurs fan here has said that Spurs are better than Barca. Pleaes refrain from using the straw man argument because it just makes you look like a bit of a clown. =)

  15. Are we still being bothered by noisome Mickey Mouser wums?

    How on earth do they have the nerve to even attempt it?

    Queen Kenny has taken on the task of making a mockery of the 'Pool myth/legend, left to him by Benitez, and this clown thinks it's a good idea to wum the fans of a team that has true title-winning aspirations!

    Unbelievable!

    What a prick.
    He criticises the fans for being happy with a 3rd place finish, then claims that we think we're better than Barca.
    That argument's about as consistent as his team.

    Seriously, this bile over what is transfer speculation, you read that much into it!

    I guess being where ye've been for the last god knows how long languishing mid table some of your lot were bound to get all uppity:)

    Just makes the comedown all the harder to take<ok>

    Your club has previous - Benitez was using the media to publicly try and unsettle Defoe a few years back (before he changed tack and tapped-up Robbie Keane instead)

    Imagine a manager trying to unsettle a player, I don't believe for a second that that actually happens...Wait, Arry has been doing this for years but eh, I guess we'll ignore that small detail shall we! One of your lot says that the "2nd is nothing" statement isn't true in todays game, again - You believe what you like, you normally do. Hapy to finish 3rd, 4th or 5th - Jeez, you guys really do need to get a grip, as I have said in a previous post, we're not title challenging stuff, but you guys are sitting comfortably in 3rd with the top spot in sight and all you can say is @Nah, you not what, we'll stay here thanks!" What a bunch of muppetts!

    So should we hope to win the league, which results in you claiming that we think we're better than Barcelona or should we be happy with some progress from last season, which you claim makes us unambitious muppets?
