Not sure Keane would be willing to sign for only 2 years though. At his age he'll be after one more big contract for about 4 years before he slips down the leagues and/or retires. We're not in a position to offer him that imo so it would be a loan deal or nothing and if Spurs aren't willing to do business then we should be looking elsewhere.

Think the City one was an impact injury on his ankle. IIRC. Yeah, the City one didn't look like the thigh injury that's ruled him out of Wigan. He seemed to run that one off eventually but when you put all your eggs in one basket...

When did he pick this thigh injury up?

Wouldn't want him here long term but he could is significantly better than Shola or Lovenkrands and could dovetail quite well with Carroll. Loan deal would be best to get us through til May then reassess the situation.

Carroll being out for this is a massive blow. Someone's going to have to step up and lead the line and try to fill Carroll's boots. I think he'll start with Ameobi with Nolan behind but when we concede on the hour he'll bring Ranger on and bring Jonas off. We'll scramble a late equaliser somehow and come away with a point.

Ljungberg at Celtic? That's an odd one.

The wailing and gnashing of teeth will be, unbelievably, even worse when Man Utd win their next title and overtake them. With a bit of luck.

And regardless of everyone's opinion of it, it goes completely against the current regime's apparent lack of wanting to talk in public about club issues. So he's making them look like liers....again. if the stuff abiout enrique was when he was asked if he'd be fit for wigan,, he replied he'd find out in his tweet.....that was a good reply and is being deliberatly made out as something more by people on here who are looking for sticks to throw. the ranger one is a bit different and only rangers reaction will say whether it was right or not. people ought to remember the documentary on bobby when all the players were eating and he was talking about players today, being particularly scatrhing about a player wanting the bus turned round to go back and get a diamond earring, his eyes never moved and he was looking at one player, thought to be dyer. as bad if not worse than pardew on ranger. I've got no axe to grind but I do think things like this should be kept away from the media as much as possible. The player, club and manager involved aren't important, it's a general opinion I hold about it. maybe the ranger bit but if the enrique bit is all that was then it was justa good retort. Possibly? A quiet word in Enrique's ear to ask him not to do it again would have done though. We'll see how the pair of them react to it.

Even if it doesn't work out for the lad here another club would give you £5m for him in a year or two. Virtually zero risk in that respect. I think he's made for the PL personally and it's a cracking signing.

No reason to go public with either situation. Managers should manage the players rather than go blabbing about it in the papers. My opinion obviously.

Been following football for about 25 years and this is the worst Liverpool side I've ever seen. Consistently shite, insipid, passionless football being played by blokes who either aren't good enough or couldn't give a fuck. It's fucking great.

Going back years here but I think she was called Danielle? What's she called now? Danielle Guthrie.

You should be on a stage. Sweeping the fucker.

Hodgon looks scared to even come to the touchline to encourage them. Clueless fucking giffer.

Chances of winning just got a whole lot better.

Yep. Turning point.

Fuck off man.

Got a hunch Ancelotti's lost the dressing room for some reason. Hard to think of another reason which explains how it's gone so wrong so quickly.

2 domestic and 2 overseas then?

I thought there was just a limit to domestic loans? [/football manager] Yeah, thought there was some kind of limit but not sure of the details.

If he signs, that does mean we can get someone else in on loan doesn't it, or will his loan deal still be active?

Clearly waited for Hughton to be binned before putting pen to paper.

He'll never come here man. It's a pipedream, forget it.
