Dirk Kuyt has become the fifth Liverpool footballer to be burgled in less than 18 months. The 27-year-old striker's luxury home in Woolton was targeted on Thursday while he was away on international duty with home country Holland. Merseyside Police confirmed they were investigating a burglary in Woolton. The Merseyside home of Jerzy Dudek, Liverpool's goalkeeper from the 2005 Champions League final penalty shoot-out, was burgled in June 2006. The raid at Kuyt's house is the latest to see a footballers' home targeted in the city while they are away playing a match. Dudek, who now plays for Real Madrid, was on holiday in Poland when thieves took his Porsche car, jewellery and a large haul of football memorabilia from across his career, including his European Cup medal. Pepe Reina was burgled while he played for Liverpool in last May's Champions League semi-final against Chelsea. He also had his Porsche taken during the raid, among other things, with the car later found burnt-out in West Derby. Reds defender Daniel Agger had his Wirral home burgled in September last year and striker Peter Crouch's house in Alderley Edge was targeted in the same month while he was on England duty.

Ameobi goes out on loan Scunthorpe United have taken teenage Leeds striker Tomi Ameobi on loan until 6 January. The 19-year-old academy product made his Leeds debut in the Carling Cup tie at Portsmouth earlier this season. Leeds manager Dennis Wise is hoping Ameobi will gain valuable first team experience from the loan move to Glanford Park. Scunthorpe have also taken young duo Simon Ainge and Tom Penford on trial from League Two side Bradford City. -------------------- Cracking signing for Scunny.

Where would Arshavin play? How would your mid/attacking formation look? Given Beye Rozehnal Faye Enrique Edmilson Riquelme Barton Arshavin N'Zogbia Viduka I think I just jizzed my pants Replace Viduka with Martins and I too will jizz ... did we agree to sign edmilson in january? or did that not happen? is it just what people want? Seem to remember SSN saying we'd sorted an arrangement for January, but then again they always talk utter bollocks.

If we're lucky, he might come back with an approach for Pattison on loan, till, say, January.

2-1 NI Healy

Looks like Hitzfeld is available.....

...and bags his second.

Just scored a stunning free kick for Argentina.

This. Was at the heart of absolutely everything.

Zog and Carroll.

Just wondering, how many people on here would mind say, Owen leaving and Arshavin and Edmilsson being bought with the money?

Easily the man i've got the most respect for in football. The bloke is a hero and an inspiration to all.

Didn't say it did. All I was saying was that Decky implied Owen had good form at the start of 05 season due to the fact he was playing alongside a quality striker. When, in 2005, Shearer wasn't.

You can't lose something you never had in the first place

Viduka 2007 > Shearer 2005

I'd sign him for those comedy pics alone!

Arshavin, Woodgate, Arteta/Riquelme/Gudjohnsen etc...
