Hardly ever post on here, but that was a really great watch. Cheers 

not sure all this build up is necessary

Or do you think it'll be everyone sitting in a circle and if someone says a good idea everyone has to go "yes and ho".

 

Shelvey: Uh, Hollywood balls every 30 seconds. [throws ball]

 

Everyone: Yes and ho!

 

Ki Sung-yueng: Reduce the opponent threat through meticulous studying of their common decisions and devise a means to counter attack with minimal exposure of the channels through our midfield.

 

Everyone except Bruce: Yes and ho!

 

Bruce: Ki, Ki I want to hear new ideas ricocheting off your synapses like a pinball, not just a two year old slogan.

 

(this one is for Thick of It purists)

Great stuff 

Will be hilarious to what the Corbridge Larder says about this, and then how he 'prepares' for Spurs away.  All cracking stuff  .

As we all know, Liverpool Football Club is special. Different. Classy. Unique. Special. Unique. Classy. Unique. Iconic. Unique. Special. Unique. Clubby. Clubbish. Clubesque. Special. Unique. Increasingly irrelevant. Over the hill. Past-it. Yesterday’s news. Special. Unique. Iconic. Unique. Special. Special. Special. Unique. Liverpool Football Club are special. And unique. And special. And classy. They’re special and specially unique and uniquely specially and specially special and uniquely classy and they have a different way of doing things, you wouldn’t understand, you just wouldn’t, because you’re not special, or classy, or unique, you’re not Liverpool Football Club, and you wouldn’t understand, so don’t even bother, just accept it, they’re the best football team in the tra-la-la-la land.

 

Liverpool Football Club’s specialness and uniqueness and classiness naturally places them in a position to pat lesser clubs on the head and let them know of their place in the food chain. Clubs, say, like Southampton, who were browbeaten into selling Adam Lallana and Dejan Lovren to mighty Liverpool last summer. “They have a choice as a club,” Liverpool’s head guru, Brendan Rodgers, roared last August. “They don’t have to sell. You have a choice. Maybe Southampton’s objectives have changed. They were looking to be a [big Cup] club, I believe. They obviously wanted to change. There might be one or two others who leave. It’s just the way it works.” It’s. Just. The. Way. It. Works.

 

Words to live by. Poetry in motion that comes to mind now that Raheem Sterling is busy letting Liverpool know that the way it works is that he would like to leave in the summer, maybe join a bigger club, play for a team who actually have a chance of winning something in the near future, that there’s only so many times he can hear about the Miraculous Miracle of Istanbul before he’s forced to go all Van Gogh on his ears.

 

Treason! Naturally Sterling’s desire to play for a good team has been met with fury and The Fiver assumes he has spent the day locked in Melwood’s Re-education Chamber, a crack team of Phil Thompson, John Bishop and John Aldridge taking it in turns to hammer home the uniqueness and specialness and classiness of Liverpool Football Club, making sure Sterling knows that he will forever walk alone if he joins Manchester City, a terrifying prospect indeed. It’s just the way it works.

 

Guardian article.  Wow.

Worth subscribing to the Guardian Fiver daily email - it's often got a fantastic anti-liverpool bias.

After his first season, especially playing in THIS team, I'd say he's probably one of the brightest prospects, if not THE brightest prospect we've ever signed in the PL era. Imagine him in SBR's team.

Would have been good to see, but we were so much better in every department at that time - a player like Perez wouldn't have got in front of Al or Bellamy. 

Looks like he'll be sitting out his suspension at Barca.

 

No idea why they think they need Suarez on top of Neymar and Messi. Scary front line.

It's a pissing contest with Real.  Simple as.

What's disgusting is that not once does he apologise for being a useless, incompetent s*** stain for failing to replace Cabaye. Reckon he was up all night writing (dictating) this instead of trying to get us a decent player in.

 

c***.

Doubt he has any input whatsoever into that match program, and to be honest I'd be surpirsed if he actually knew we had a match on today, let alone the derby.  He'll never apologise - but there is a future that doesn't involve him and Ameobi and it's only a few years away

Cech's been superb like. Keeps on Goebbeling all of the Bayern shots up with ease.

 

sehr gut.

Im worried about the Germans Concentration.

 

Chelsea camped in their own half?

 

Jew a goal though with all these chances.

Been quiet a poor final - solution would be a goal

methinks they've had a quick pint before heading to the pink palace 

Schmeichel

Roberto Larcos (one time PES name)

Adams

Desailly

G Neville

Zidane

Keane

Beckham

C. Ronaldo

Shearer (got a bar named after him)

Ronaldo

So close:  Rivaldo, Totti, Gazza, Raul, Henry

Manager - Mourinho

Maybe the Euros aren't going ahead anymore and this is the replacement.  And what is Palermo?  The plot thickens..

Sky was like Liverpool TV today.  Hilarious how it turned out 

How long before the title is changed to Yohan Benalol 

Media going on about this penalty like it's another 9/11 lol might see if it's on Sky News..

Wonder what the stats are about penalties at OT in the last few years.....

Good post 

Apart from the superb performance, loved the fact that gooner Alan Smith said during the commentary of the derby last week something along the lines of we'll need the three points against Sunderland because we have Arsenal next  

Also, Lawro went for the standard 3-0 to Arsenal ho ho ha  

Still thinking I'm going to be waking up on Sunday morning and this is all a dream!!

Too early for me to remember Shearer in his peak, but the fact he consistently scored goals for us even after the standard of the rest of the team dropped means he should get it. Drogba has played in a fantastic team his whole career at Chelsea, we were probably only that for two seasons at best with Shearer here.

That's very true.  The Blackburn title winning team was due so much to Shearers goals, where as the Chelsea team Drogba joined was full of established international stars.  I personally think drogba is currently the best strilker in the prem by quite some way, but Shearer nails this particular argument.

These commentators really are awful. ''Cold wintery nights in the north''

How patronising was that.

This is wonderful TV.

Honestly, STFU. I've enjoyed the games even with the terrible buzzing sound. The only issue that I see is that the players need to communicate and it shouldn't get in the way of the actual game. But to say it has "ruined the world cup for me, that's it, I'm done" is retarded and akin to throwing your toys out of the pram. How old are some of you lot? F*ks sake, it's the bleedin' World Cup, I've enjoyed it for what it's worth. Not the best in many a year, but a spectacle nonetheless. And I'm not attributing the poor showing to the bloody vuvuzelas alone, as some people seem to cling to.

Totally agree with this.  I find the now familiar drone part of the whole thing and part of having a world cup in Africa.  The world cup isn't at Wembley, or a field in Hertfordshire, or SJP, it's in Africa and you either take the whole thing or leave it.  I can't remember '78 but did everyone moan on like this with all the tickertape ?

As for claiming it's made the world cup a bad one - we've only had only had 5 days of it for God's sake .  We're still in the first games in the first round there isn't any tension or must win games for anyone yet, so it's absurd to compare it to past world cups already.  And how anyone can think that the sound the crowd makes has influenced the tactics of all of the teams to score less goals, well I have my doubts..

He needs to prove himself in the premiership before any big clubs make a move for him.  I hope he does though, and if he does become a proven premiership player, we keep hold of him.  A few if's there though..

Got to say, the lad is improving dramatiically.

Watch one of the "big 4" slap a bid in for him in the close season

Something insulting at first

 

As for section of our crowd think foreigners world beaters - I'd agree far more with Malandro

The opposite most often. We WANT local lads to succeed and if the foreigner doesnt produce quickly theres less patience. FAR less.

I hope you mean one of the "big 4" in the championship lol  If not, you're seriously deluded.

We'll never know if he would have turned out as good as many had hoped, though clearly he wasn't going to be another Shearer.  Hope the young millionaire copes with it all though
