Him nearly having a scrap with Meyler in pre-season might have put Bruce off. He's a good midfielder and definitely something we've been missing.

He's been in trouble a lot for his on pitch discipline, he was fined a few years ago for throwing a bad tackle in. He'll be the next Cattermole.

I've just been looking at the Egypt national football team; a lot of the players Apth recommended ages ago are now back playing in Egypt again. I remember we looked at that Rabia lad and we were linked with Kahraba. Both would cost considerably less now.

Apparently this is the new guy to watch from Egypt. I know the quality of the Egyptian league isn't brilliant, but ****ing hell, talk about big fish/small pond. Also, he has a name fitting for our city; Must have a fatty.

I've been to Anfield twice, I think, and a similar number times to most other PL (and lower) grounds. Often but not always to watch City. I suspect the same applies to many other posters. That doesn't make us supporters of those other teams--we just like watching the best standard of football and its players. We pay money to watch them entertain us.

Then why are Liverpool your second team? I'd understand if an English expat lived in Germany, France, Spain and Scandinavia and frequently watched the local team play, but saying you have a second team, especially one in the same country, is just crappy.

Then why in the name of Greek buggery did you choose Liverpool?

I like Rabia and Kahraba. Rabia didn't get much of a chance at Sporting and Kahraba did class in the Swiss top division whilst he was at Luzern.

There's also Ramadan Sobhy, who's supposed to be their next big talent, made his debut at 15 and already has two caps for Egypt. I'd love to see us snap up some of these lads, Brucey knows the Egyptian market pretty well and Elmo/Gedo would have a lot of pull here.
 
Also, Ramadan Sobhi is supposed to be a good, young Egyptian talent.

EDIT: ****, didn't see Sterling's post. Great minds, eh? Take me on one of your scouting missions to the land of the Pharaohs.

I know he's **** but calling Paddy Madden a ****** is a little harsh.

Joint third in the league one goal scoring charts. He has also been played for most the season as a winger. Out of position in a **** team he can still score 13 league goals.

Conor Washington only scored 15 for Peterborough in league one signed for QPR for £2.5m - £3.0m.

No harm in taking a gamble on someone who has consistently scored goals at a level that is only one league below the one we currently play in.

I think we need two strikers, I'd take him as the gamble and sign an experienced loan player, if there are any left.

On the one hand you're dismissing Madden could play in the Championship yet advocating another in Morsy could play in the Championship from league two.

Now I know you're talking ****.<laugh><laugh><laugh>

Morsy's good. Madden's ****, as proven by his stint in the Championship with Yeovil.
 
To be fair I quite rate Madden, he reminds me of Fryatt. He had a bad go of it in the Championship last time, but he was playing for Yeovil, hardly going to score many was he? If the price was right I'd be happy with it, but Scunthorpe would probably mug us off unless we threw in Luer as a makeweight.

I'm sure I heard blunderside commentators saying they'd want at least £1 Million for him - how much do you pay for a bench warmer? And is he any better than Aluko or Akpom?

He's a different player to both of them. He's more like Fryatt or Gedo, somebody who will score goals in the box. Or the type of player people moan about because he doesn't do much else other than toe poke the ball in 20 times a season.

He's supposed to be really quick, skilful and direct with a decent record for converting chances. He's already got a head start on Aluko!!
 
Nick Powell better not be the supposed striker we're getting a deal done on, mainly because he's not a ****ing striker.

He's a decent player, don't get me wrong, but WE DON'T NEED ANOTHER MIDFIELDER.
