Don' t blame you! If I was a Pool fan, I'd be pretty pissed off with the ungrateful little **** too!...
I think what Sterling is doing is quite admiral. He's holding up a mirror to Mouser delusion. See, what is really eating the Mousers is the fact that, here, we have a player who wants to leave 'Pool. In the minds of Mousers, that's unheard of! No one leaves 'Pool! They are great club, right? Wrong. Sterling's actions are in full accord with what every single one of us non-Mousers knows - 'Pool is a club that is going no where, under a clueless manager, and a board that has no vision and no ambition. Of course he wants out of that. 'Pool are trying to block the move by putting a ridiculous price tag on his head, and Sterling has reacted by pretending to be sick. It's an awful situation for this young player to find himself in. All he wants is for his Klanfield nightmare to end, so that he can get on with his life. By the same token, Mousers are, yet again, being forced to accept that their beloved 'Pool is seen by the very top players as an albatross around their necks. I really do wish I was permitted to go back on the 'Pool board to tell them that fact. There'd be no wumming from me, nust straight, plain talk.
Former Liverpool striker John Aldridge believes the Reds are better off without Manchester City-bound Raheem Sterling and that £49m is overpriced for the England forward. (Sky Sports)
£49m is a crazy price for sterling. City have been mugged off and Liverpool must be laughing. What they need to do better is learn from their own mistakes and the likes of Spurs and not spend that money on utter dross as they have in the past.
Glen Johnson says his new club Stoke City are on the way up following his move from Liverpool. "Very happy to have signed for a good club going in the right direction!" he tweeted (BBC Football website) ...who've just sold their best player to the Chavs!
Former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher believes the Anfield club has done good business in getting Manchester City to pay £49m for Raheem Sterling. "He is a very good young player but he has not yet hit the heights of an Owen, Rooney, Fowler or Giggs at this stage of his career," he said on Kicca (BBC Football website)
Alderwield is a good signing, the other two will probably turn out to be dross. 66.33% dross signings. Sounds consistent with spud transfer policy
Excellent! We'll find out if you are right. If you are proved wrong, I expect you'll be man enough to write a thread entitled: "My personal apologies to Levy for doubting his shrewdness." Right?
I won't need to. Even if all of your signings this window turn out to be world beaters. Levy will still have a plethora of dross under his belt that he's sanctioned. In fact the 66.33% dross quota was being generous, as I wasn't counting the likes of Soldado, Lamela, Capoue, Paulinho and the rest of that £120m pissed up the wall.
You can't ignore the calamities that levy has overseen previously and expect one transfer window to erase all of that.
If Tottenham's signings have been consistently poor under Levy and we've been right behind Arsenal the whole time, who've spent far more and have a much higher budget, then what have Wenger's signings been like? Also, what does any of it have to do with Liverpool? Q: What do you make of the prison escape of Mexican drug lord El Chapo? Piskie: It reminded me of when Giovani Dos Santos escaped Spurs by signing for Mallorca. Q: What's your opinion of the Greek debt bailout? Piskie: It'll be nothing compared to the bailout that Spurs will need when they start building their new stadium. Q: How about that UKIP MEP who's been jailed for fraud? Piskie: You know who's a real fraud? Daniel Levy.
