  1. http://www.redandwhitekop.com/forum/index.php?topic=258846.msg6978670#msg6978670 I love it when they go on about "de Libpool Way"
  2. Or since Inter supposedly want him, wait to see if they come in and get a compensation payment? Hopefully they'll be stupid enough to just throw money at him instead though. In some ways I'll be said to see the fat clown leave.... on the other hand, it's hilarious that one of the most graceless, arrogant people in football is going to get sacked in such a demeaning fashion
  3. This post was moved. Or time travelled or something.
  4. Gomez at the last Euros put in the worst performances by an individual I've ever seen in a major tournament. Unbelievably shit. It was like a bad flashback to watching Brett Angel. He'd scored something daft like near enough 1 in 2 during the Bundesliga season as well.
  5. I've kept an eye on him since he scored an immense goal at Goodison in a pre-season game. It's on a popular video website
  6. Madness. He kept them up. Boa Morte has been alternating between injured and shit for 3 years.
  7. yak seems set to be moved on Moyes has done wonders getting Saha on the pitch a lot more than Fergie & ManUre could ever do. Saha was great in the first half of the season, peaking with him ripping apart Chelsea. Then he signed his new contract and was awful in pretty much every game since.
  8. I agree, especially as you don't really have the money either, but Beckford? You can't be happy wasting wages and a squad number on him. We'll get more of a return out of Beckford than we have from Vaughan over the last few years. Even if he doesn't quite cut it in the Prem, he'll be available for selection far more often and earn his wages rather than having his own personal treatment table.
  9. England just do this for the lulz.
  10. It's not the official one is it? The FIFA U17 Champs were on late last year, and I watched most of the tournament. EDIT: These are the EUROs aren't they? Yeah it's the Euros. Only players I know in the squad are Wickham who has been scoring the goals and is already playing for Ipswich, along with the two Everton lads. There's Garbutt the leftback we signed from Leeds (up to £1m compensation!) and Ross Barkley, an attacking midfielder who is supposed to be shit hot.
  11. Constantly injured and hasn't progressed because of it. Shame because I thought he'd be a really good striker.
  12. Beckford is someone I have reservations about but lets face it, Moyes usually gets it absolutely spot on with signings from the lower leagues. He'll probably just replace Vaughan as back up anyway.
  13. Schmeichel is ok, but they need an awful lot of (better) players to go up with ease. He kept 20 plus clean sheets. Ok is a bit of an understatement, Premier League clubs were looking at him to be fair mate. To join in, also when he played a few games a couple for seasons ago for City he looked good. He didn't at all The media were raving about him cause City kept a few clean sheets but that was down to the backline being in great form and a few big slices of luck (eg when Kasper was flapping everywhere or dropping the ball on several occasions) His actual performances were pretty s***.
  14. Silly.... This what everybody was use to say about Henrik Larsson. He prove them wrong even at wrong age... Larsson was far more athletic and had much better technical ability. It's not just about the amount of goals scored. That said, in your position, he's probably worth a gamble on a free even though I'm not convinced he will do it in the Prem. You can always sell him on.
  15. if he does i think it would be to blackpool He's on the OS today talking about looking forward to playing against Blackpool at Goodison so maybe he's staying put. Wouldn't surprise me if Moyes ended up sticking withe Nevill & Hibbert for RB and sent him out on loan again though
  16. Reckon he might move this summer after being left out of the Portugal world cup squad. Certainly impressed playing against you in the Waffa cup. In that 2nd leg a cardboard box would have impressed. Yep. In the first leg when we actually turned up he was rubbish and got taken off. Veloso was the only player of theirs who impressed over the two games rather than just in the surrender at Lisbon.
  17. I just think sometimes people need to take their black & white tinted glasses off and realise that outside of Newcastle, not many people rate Keegan as highly as manager. They must be fuckwits. The important thing is what a manager achieves not the manner of their exit, and Keegan did a good job at City, a good job at Fulham, a good job at Newcastle the second time round and performed a minor miracle in his first managerial stint at SJP. Most managers get sacked; quitting is largely the preserve of the good ones. I don't rate Keegan much at all, not these days anyway. He spent a fortune at City and wasted most of it on utter rubbish. Despite a couple of decent league finishes it ended up going pear shaped and by the time he left they were in a real mess. He was a terrible England boss too. He did a good job at Fulham (albeit with a lot of financial muscle compared to his rivals) and did brilliantly at yourselves the first time round. That first stint is ancient history now though. George Graham, Howard Kendall, Kenny Dalglish and Terry Venables wouldn't still get any decent jobs on the back of being quality managers years ago. Their shelf life is up and I think Keegan has reached that stage now. Tin hat on.
  18. Desperate attempt to discredit Carrghercunt as he has his position on the plane. Both are hideous wankers.
  19. Baines might start to play ok and get forward like he does for us now then. Gerrard offered him absolutely no cover all game and left him between marking 2 men multiple times. If he doesn't want to play on the left he should tell Capello that and accept a place on the bench if he can't get picked in the centre. I like it how you blame the Liverpool player for your player being absolutely out of his depth. No biased whatsoever. So do you honestly think Gerrard gave him any sort of cover or options for an outlet ball in that first half? Baines has had a shit game but it's hardly surprising in those circumstances. Fact is, we had a one man left side with Gerrard wandering into the centre constantly and not tracking back. Since moving into the middle he seems to have switched his attentions to perfecting the bellyflop. Cunt.
  20. Baines might start to play ok and get forward like he does for us now then. Gerrard offered him absolutely no cover all game and left him between marking 2 men multiple times.

  21. Winning the Copa Del Rey and qualifying for the Champions League not enough for the caretaker to win the job then? Oh and Rodwell has signed a long-rumoured (locally) new 5 year deal to the surprise of nobody except national newspaper journos. Shame that £20m transfer to Utd/Chelsea/Arsenal/City didn't go through eh.
  22. We're buying Fellaini in more than 2 installments.
  23. Where would he play in their line up? In place of Stephen Ireland? A bit harsh on Ireland, really good player him. Ireland hasn't played much this season. And Milner has the attributes that have seen Ireland dropped (workrate and tactical discipline). Nothing wrong with Ireland's workrate tbf. Last two seasons he has done extra training during the summer while all the other players were away to improve his fitness & strength.
