I love you, immortal thread of the damned

Voted Barton, but tbh, with an extended run, if Best gets into double figures for the year that could be the difference between 8th and 18th. If he steps up 2nd half I'd vote for him. Tiote is total beastmode and that volley was superb but I don't feel his disciplinary problems are behind him yet. Will walk POTY 2011/2012 if he does calm down and add maybe another goal or two to his game.

Well he was (apparently) a highly rated striking prospect at one point and we are short of strikers.

tbh I'll be done with pardew if he puts loven on the wing again

Based on lineups ... ? http://i.imgur.com/FAYox.png Liverpool going to get bummed to death.

http://i.imgur.com/ktiXc.gif 1W1D7L in their last 9. This isn't a blip it's a malaise.

Only if it's long term. But just imagine making £55m on 3 permacrocks if so. Holy shit.

What a fucking goal by Tiote. I came.

Gosh if we're getting tonked by dross like arsenal 17th sounds really good. giantest pair of fucking rolleyes you'll ever see

Pires

£20k/week? Wow, I bet we'll attract some right talent with those wages. Maybe ten years ago. So the severe salary cap has been lifted? Even if 20k is a little on the low side do you see it really being higher than 35k? A long spell of attempting to unearth cheap foreign talent is in our future.

Allowing for four year contracts, a £5m player becomes a £9m one (on 20k/w =~ £1m/yr), so probably 3 or 4 players in within that budget would make more sense. Our scouting team better keep producing Tiotes.

Shola is dead. Long live shola.

Was just thinking that. Leon we've fleshed out a new contract worth £18 a week for you.

If we'd sold him 24 hours earlier, do you think we'd be in a better position? Well an extra day is an extra day, so yes. Do you feel otherwise?

- Liverpool want (try) to play a quick short passing game on the ground and have absolutely no need for a target man to knock down headers + hold up play. Who's their best crosser? Glen Johnson? It'll be a while before they get anything out of him, if they ever do.

Agree with a lot of your thoughts, thought I'd add that the really annoying thing for me in all this is the timing. Absolutely no chance to get anyone else in, assuming some of that money was going to be made available anyway.

edit: nevermind me

*shoves you off cliff* Also, I would play Best + Ranger up front, HBA/Jonas Tiote Ireland Barton behind them.

Numb. See sig. Getting drunk and going to bed. Hating the world begins in the morning.

Will projectile vomit here at work if this goea through. And I just ate a lot of cottage cheese

TBH II could see us taking their 38m offer that was rejected for Aguero.

i'm afraid he's already been found guilty of being shite by a jury of giant disembodied heads, superman style.

Swank sofa, has changed my opinion of him completely.
