Ah right. You're one of those fans that only thinks a player is good if they can run past 5 players.

You're probably a bit of an idiot and not too sure why I'm even given you a responce but let me try educate you.

Football is a simple game. 11 players, 1 ball. It's quicker to pass the ball from 1 player to the next than it is to run from 1 part of the pitch to the other. It is also easier to pass the ball around a player rather than run through players. Watch Barcelona and you'll see exactly why they are the best team in the World. They pass the ball around teams and then have the players to finish the ball when they get into the penalty area.

If you had 10 outfield players that can pass the ball around players and keep possession like Joe Allen can then you'll go a lot further than a team full of Nani's and Young's that try and run round 6 players.

You're not Barcelona.And I'm getting bored with all these teams trying to copy them.

Let the masters do it.Don't copy them.

I know what football is, I do play it.

Joe Allen is no Xavi.He can keep possession well, but can't do much with it.
 
I doubt it. She doesn't know where Southampton is either.

She found her way there alright the other night <ok>.

It's better to stop a joke when you've been clearly outclassed. Just a bit of advice little one.

C'mon mate; some originality please. I love a good Wum, go back to the Saints board & ask around to see if there's a better one there. Try finding that guy that was on here midweek telling us your club was worth 3 billion

He made me laugh.
 
That Magic Assist By Luis Suarez:3411732 said:
Arda Turan playing for Atletico today.. He exists!

Who was the name of that fake player from Bulgaria that someone invented and the media thought he was real...listed him on all sorts of top young player lists...

Bugdev? Something like that.

I didn't say we were Barcelona or trying to copy them. I was talking about Joe Allen and they way he plays football. He keeps possession be it passing forwards/backwards/sidewards. This is exactly the same thing the best players in the World do. They keep the ball, work it round players and that allows teams to work their way up the pitch and get into scoring areas. Xavi has 4 or 5 players ahead of him who all play this way as well which is why Barcelona are so good.

Like I said, if you had a team full of players than can pass the ball round other teams (like Barcelona do for example) you'll win more games than not and you'll have more success than a team of players trying to dribble the ball round 4 players on their own.
 
Can we not derail this thread? It's 151 pages of transfer speculation - why let a few rotten Southampton fans ruin it? We're biting on their bait.

They dangle Ramirez idiotically and we jump to defend ourselves. We don't need to respond to them, we're Liverpool ****ing FC, who are they? Ignore the WUMs, don't give them the satisfaction of a response.
 
Tweeted by John Cross:

Sturridge turned down Liverpool - not Chelsea. Liverpool wanted a one year loan while Sturridge wanted permanent switch. He's not happy

Not sure how truthful it is...

To be fair it was only one Southampton fan. The transfer news has kind of dried up.

Show me the new news and I'll get back on topic. Chelsea getting their panties pulled down in the Super Cup!
 
A bit of news on Joe Cole from the BBC...

"Joe Cole will be staying at Liverpool to fight for his place. There were various enquiries but no offers or realistic deals presented."

Can't see him getting too much game time if he does stay.
 
I love how Torres scores a couple of goals, one being a tap in from a offside position and all of a sudden he's back on form, yet stick him against a decent team again and he looks like a lost boy.

Exactly the same in the Euro's he scored 2 against the worst team in the Euros (sorry Ireland fans) and then a tap in in the final and suddenly he's back on form.

Falcao looks like he knows where the back of the net is, surely only a matter of time before he gets snapped up by someone bigger than Atheltico.

Loosely translated: I don't actually want to play football, I'm in love with the LFC Physio. I could understand it if it was the Chelsea one. Fair play to him: lost his ability ages ago, why be rubbish AND poorer?
