    It's a shame considering a positive performance on Saturday without the 'marquee' signing.

    Just switched sky on and they said could there be a twist in Tottenhams pursuit in singing Willian, then he said could he be staying in Russia?

    I'll update you when I hear more.

    Medical isn't complete. I believe the club are just waiting to receive the results. I think we will announce the deal at 5pm today.

    Progress this year is definitely finishing above Everton, and then competing with Arsenal for 5th.

    it was 1 nil at home against bloody Stoke, everyone's wetting themselves already. It's bloody long season and we're too lightweight still

    We could easily have scored 3 or more. Good performance, lots of chances created, lots of shots on target which needed good saves to keep out and that was the first game of the season against a team well known to be hard to break down and our first real opponents of the season (preseason teams were gash) so not exactly at our sharpest.

    So yeah, lots of positives and optimism that we can push on. Wetting themselves is a bit extreme though

    Normally we struggle to break down these teams - we cut them open quite a few times. Shoddy finishing almost let us down but we survived and we start the season off with a win.

    Compare to last season where we outplayed by West Brom and lost 3-0.

  9. ...and if there isn't a derail, RHC will complain.

    Was only interest from Zenit, apparently willing to pay £34m for the Brazillian.

    you keep doing that and it's ignorant as hell.

    first you are insulting sir red.... then you are taking my name in vain not to mention MFG who i won't speak for or against.

    Have manners for once. you had a right strop this morning over a stupid thread but think nothing of consistently insulting people.

    A very good Tweet by a Liverpool Fan..
    Two Weeks ago, when there was no "reported" interest in Willian, we were optimistic
    Now, he's not coming here, its the end of the world!

    Perspective people!

    I'm not gonna get too bothered about this anyway. Didn't think we'd get top 4 before, don't think we'd get it now.

    Even before the interest in Willian I said we definately needed at least two signings more. A CB and winger. If we miss out on Willian, then fine, but I hope we have a plan D

  15. If you are going to go down this route, please do it in a PM as the rest of us don't want to see it. That goes for both you and RHC <ok>

    But he has gone to a direct rival which is the problem, well they were a rival, far ahead of us now.

    I think most sane fans knew that we need to add a LB, CB and Winger/AMF/Striker.
    We've added a LB in Cissokho, two more quality signings (again, need not be a BIG name) and we'll compete, will we get top four? Who knows but we can't give up after one game (which we won) and after our rivals buy players, which they are allowed to do...

    That may be the case, but two weeks ago he wasn't integral to our season, now that he's gone else where he is?
