    What a hatchet job. I wonder which bellend wrote it? Didn't feel the need to put their name to it, unsurprisingly.
    Parts of it are rather reminiscent of things Jamie O'Hara had to say about leaving. Let's hope that things work out a little better for Livermore, whatever happens in the summer.

    They might be now, but thats nothing to do with KPB, he doesn't play for them anymore SG, he plays for Schalke, in the period Livermore would be referring to they won the league in his first season and came second the next. If you look at the names in the side those two seasons they've all been sold or retired since.

    Yes it does, it underlines he's talking utter ****e - as does a quick check on Transfermarkt that shows that in his first six months at Milan he was more often used as a sub than as a first teamer.

    Why is it everytime an English player can't get into a side they blame foreign players.

    If a player is good enough then they will play regardless of their nationality.

    ...with the exception of Frimpong, who says it's the white English players keeping him out of the Arsenal side. A look at their first team squad proves just how accurate Frimpong's rant was...
    White English players at Arsenal: Wilshere, Jenkinson (and he was Finnish for a while)
    Non-white English players at Arsenal: Walcott, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Gibbs
    White non-English players at Arsenal: Ramsey, Cazorla, Ramsey, Szczesny, Giroud, Flamini, Koscielny, Podolski, Vermaelen, Rosicky, Arteta, Mertesacker, Fabianski, Viviano, Bendtner
    Non-white non-English players at Arsenal: Ozil, Sagna, Diaby, Sanogo, Gnabry, Miyaichi, Park Chu-young...and Frimpong

    Ozil is of Turkish descent (hence the surname) .

    I hope he has spout his mouth off to seal a permanent move away. He is awful.

    No it doesn't, he played well for Milan in his time there, end of. You're the only one talking utter ****e. JL is saying in a nutshell KPB went on to better things, a Scudetto significantly better than dossing on our bench. Everyone else has got that except you, now do everyone else a favour and be quiet! <doh>

    No, it is YOU that is talking ****e.

    "Look at Kevin-Prince Boateng, he couldn't get a look-in at Spurs. Six months later he's playing week in, week out at AC Milan"
    * Six month later he was playing week-in, week-out for Portsmouth = talking ****e
    * Eighteen months later, he wasn't playing week-in, week-out for Milan = talking ****e
    * Being a bit part player at one club to being a bit part player at another club isn't "going on to better things", it's swapping one bench for another = talking ****e

    THAT is the end of it, with evidence to back it up. Facts outweigh peevishness every time. So why don't YOU do everyone a favour and give the PISKIE tribute act a rest?

    ....everyone else gets his point except you, preferring to get an erection highlighting some timing pedantry. Stop being such a tool.

    Pathetic reply, I see you conveniently missed out including his winner in the Italian Supercoppa, a 2nd half hat-trick to turn a 3-0 deficit into a 4-3 win in a serie A game, scoring in a 2-0 win v Barca in a CL game, a Scudetto and runner up the following year....a real step down that, what a bum move...yeah, dunno what Jake's on about! <whistle>

    The point is that every single quote from Livermore is incorrect. As I have pointed out. And you, therefore, have to attempt some kind of hatchet job that makes you look like PISKIE without the sense of humour. So, no, you're being the tool. Again.

    I told you, facts outweigh peevishness.

    i.) Scoring in a cup final doesn't make you a top quality player. If it did, Ben Watson would've commanded a big money transfer in the summer.
    ii.) In the 2011-12 season, after a year at the club. Hardly fits in with him being an instant success, does it?

    i.) A game he didn't start - he was a half time sub, which should tell you something
    ii.) Again, this was in the 2011-12 season
    iii.) Ronny Rosenthal scored a hat trick for us in a game we were losing, and that didn;t make him a top quality player

    Jake Livermore scored against Barca...

    2010-11: Not a regular starter
    2011-12: Missed half the season due to various injuries
    2012-13: Often dropped to the bench or from the matchday squad, before being sold in the summer

    He swapped the subs bench for the physio bench.

    Spurs bench to Milan bench
    Spurs physio room to the Milan physio room

    His post-Spurs career resembles that of Jamie O'Hara - got some games in his first season, injured for most of his second, found games hard to come by in his third. Jake sure has an odd definition of "playing week in, week out at AC Milan"

    Tottenham's Jake Livermore wants to make his move to Hull permanent and says he 'needs a home'.

    The 23-year-old midfielder is spending this year at the KC Stadium after Spurs' summer spending spree made him surplus to requirements this season.

    The once capped Engand international has spent periods on loan before but says he is now pleased to be playing a key role for Hull.

    Boss Steve Bruce has already said he fancies signing Livermore so a deal appears to be on the cards if Andre Villas-Boas is willing to let him leave White Hart Lane.

    "Of course, there's no reason why I wouldn't look at it. They've got all the ground work to be a massive club and to go forward," he said.

    "That's what it feels like, it feels as if I need a home now in football. I'm happy coming in each day and doing my business so we'll wait and see in January or at the end of the season.

    "I'm prepared for anything in football. I'm enjoying my time here, I love the lads, the manager and the fans. Everyone here is brilliant and I'm getting a run of games so it's so far, so good."

    Despite struggling to make a breakthrough at Spurs Livermore did not agree that they should be criticised for not giving English players a chance and highlighted the form of Andros Townsend as evidence to go against this.

    "It's very difficult to stay at a big club. There are great big expectations from the club and the fans and the manager are under pressure," he added.

    "It's almost an easy option to bring in a player in who's fairly established rather than take a chance on a younger lad.

    "Tottenham have spent an awful lot of money in the past window but there's a lot of talent in the country and at Tottenham and their two breaths of fresh air this season seem to be Andros and Harry Kane, who cost them nothing."






    I'll have that. <ok>
