  1. Ledley King has retired.
  2. That's the point of the post. Clearly Liverpool were fucking insane. I'm not saying he's worse or better than those players, just making a comparison. All 4's career paths and debut PL seasons follow a similar trajectory. Duo has a point that he is not a proven top flight goalscorer though.

    Wonder if they realised Ji would be at the limpics when they organised this tour the daft fucking bamps.
  4. Just seen that 3 years ago yesterday we played that 7-2 friendly against Darlo. Amazing to think how much has changed since then, not just for us but for them.
  5. Why the hell would anybody go on trial at Pompey Edit: apparently Luke Rodgers, Izale McLeod, Lloyd Sam and a number of other dafties are also on trial there.
  6. He hasn't really done much more than somebody like Danny Graham has done only doing it at an earlier age. Graham scored 24 for Watford in the Champ, then in his first top flight season had 10 by about the half way mark only to tail off a bit second half of the season. Carroll scored 17 in the Champ, then had 11 top flight goals when Liverpool paid £35 million for him. What's the difference? Carroll had some very impressive individual displays and scored some goals against the better sides in his favour, but generally the stats and upwards curve align fairly similarly. Similar story for Andy Johnson in 04/05 and Michael Ricketts in 01/02.
  7. Mebs they'll be after Roger Johnson to replace Thiago Silva too.
  8. Dunno but everytime I hear Jallet's name on Fifa it makes me think 'u jallet?'
  9. That's fucking mint. Lifting the Intertoto
  10. What the hell is that assertion based on? Santon? Because that is basically the only example I can think of.
  11. http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/team-gb-olympic-football-scott-1148382 Nice story.
  12. The best one was made into a cracking clip on your favourite video sharing site. watch?v=Xc9p7bonjMU Class

    Hadn't seen this till now. Very nice moment.
  14. He's rich anyway, no fucks have ever been given with Mido.
  15. Not with Graham, they didn't. They had Dyer/Sinclair/Routledge either side of him. Graham isn't the quickest but he's got movement. Anyway I don't think Liverpool have that little pace upfront. Bellamy, Suarez and Borini can all shift.
  16. Why the hell are we letting Marveaux do stuff. He might break
  17. Zlatan: I'll have to learn about the other French players but, for sure, they know who I am. At his first press conference.
  18. Btw anybody that has ESPN, they have picked rights for up Ligue 1 next season. In case you wanted to enjoy another league after it has had all competitiveness sucked out of it.
  19. I watched Pescara a handful of times last season because of Zeman being there. His teams are always fun. Verratti looks very talented, however it is worth noting that Serie B is not the highest of level and he had players like Insigne and Immobile infront of him all playing in a very attacking side. For a player like him it was the perfect environment, going into a team of star players in the CL is a big step up.
  20. Shevchenko about the same level, good goalscorer, never looked at him and thought "what a stunning footballer he is."
  21. You mentioned 1 suitable candidate; Henry. The other is Sheva who you ignored. Torres, Higuain and Rooney FFS.
