I would like to award you, yes you, with this big gold-plated, dildo-inspired Captain of The ****ing Obvious Award! Please say a few words? I'm clearly not saying every result will go the same way, apart from those where i'm adding points 'willy nilly' (underused these days). Using last season as an example is however probably more sensible than, as Swarbs says, to use 07/08. The league has recently gotten more competitive, many managers/pundits/fans/players have said so. It makes more sense to predict that if the final winner has more points than last year, then several of the top four will, and that does not necessarily change the difference between Liverpool and their rivals. The point was clearly to show what the difference was last season, and speculate on whether we could close that gap to maybe make top 3. As it stands we have strengthened our first team options significantly, unlike our rivals. I think Utd have strengthened their squad, definitely, but there's no way (in my opinion) De Gea will be better this season than Van Der Sar was last, and Phil Jones does not improve your starting line-up (behind Rio, Vidic and Smalling for me), but Ashley Young does provide a first team option. Combine that with the fact you have lost Scholes, O'Shea, Brown etc and a load of title-winning experience, and i'd say Utd are maintaining a level. A title-winning level, but still a level Liverpool will get closer to. Chelsea have signed no one, City have signed a centre back (defence already being their strongest area) but Tevez wants to leave, and Arsenal are set to lose their 2 best players. Therefore at the moment i think it is entirely reasonable to look optimistically on our chances of a) maintaining our record against our rivals and b) improving results against the teams that finished below us. We would not have to do this outrageously in order to make up ground and even pass 1 or 2 teams.
Have you ever heard Gary Neville.Now thats bad.Only a complete moron would make him co-commentator on Sky on Super Sunday,then again they did make Alan ''Gaweth Bawwy and Wayne Wooney'' Smith a co-commentator.Neville sounds like Terry Christian with a hangover.
How can i guy from bury sound like someone from salford, both are not mancunians but both accents are totally different
they dont hire scousers, a because most are even uglier then neville and b they dont want the studio covered in rat stenched spit
Its the whiney irritating voice. Worse than that is Beckham with his squeaky voice and his inability to speak two syllable words.
Fair to say the problems off the field last season affected liverpools performances, however they arent going to be suffering from the same conditions this term.Combine that with the more 'attractive' football under dalglish and its going to be an interesting season.Lets hope for everyones sake that the league form of all the teams are as unpredictable as last year. Theres no reason liverpool cant challenge for the top 3.
