If. Don't be coy, you know top four is yours! And yes HIAG won't admit it but he will be sat at home enjoying European nights at Anfield, a Mouser for the evening! Anyway, at least Rodgers will have a go, none of this '' respect the opposition '' rubbish we have seen from the goons and City.
You're incorrect with Sakho. He's injured but widely touted as our future CB and played well when he had the chance. There are countless other examples of terrible transfers by us in recent years though
Last night was comical - pathetic performance once again by Spurs. Talk about embarrass the PL. FFS I really hope you don't get into Europe next season, far too embarrassing to our national sport.
Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge reveals he has nicknamed his club and England captain Steven Gerrard 'James Bond' because the 33-year-old can do everything, football-wise. (Source: Daily Mirror) Apart from win the league!
In Scouse related news, former Liverpool player (sort of...) and fake mystic Derek Acorah was banned from driving for two years yesterday, after being caught pissed off his face. Insert bad "should've seen that coming" joke here:
Signing better players won`t be as easy as you seem to think, better players usually are not available without paying over the odds and paying considerably higher wages. All the real top players are already at CL clubs and will not be for sale unless you pay silly money (Ozil), and wages. Liverpool have been actively trying to reduce their wage bill and the £30m or so CL revenue will not make much of a hole in last years £50m losses (£91m over 2 years). Even with CL, players will always choose to go to United, Chelsea, City or Arsenal over Liverpool (and Spurs), simply because they pay higher salaries. Only the very biggest clubs and those with sugar daddy owners shop at Harrods, Liverpool will still be shopping in the same shop as Spurs, which is a level below the highest spenders, looking for value and potential. Roy Rodgers has a poor strike rate on transfers, he has spent £60m NET and wasted most of it.
I think that a lot of the Scouser's loses have come on things like stadium plans, bizarrely. They splashed a load of cash around on stuff that they never used.
