Dave Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Pardew is out of order btw, Liverpool or not. Someone like Harry Redknapp would get slaughtered on here for comments like that about one of our players. And so much for us doing all our transfer business behind closed doors. Not a fan.

Shares agent with Big Sam and Nolan Suits Big Sams style to a tea I fail to see why the agent argument would persuade him. Don't think West Ham can offer him the same wages he's currently on. It's a huge step down from his current club too, and he doesn't have the same affiliation he has with us. He would have to be pretty desperate to want away to even consider West Ham iyam.

tmonkey Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Rather hoof the ball every chance we get than play like Swansea. I'd go somewhere in between. Swansea fooled a lot of people last season, they showed how possession football could be massively ineffectual and made the argument for it not being as important as I'd always deemed it Swansea were brilliant though for a newly promoted side with a tiny budget and relatively unknown players. Of course they were going to be ineffective most of the time, they don't have players capable of cutting teams open at will and creating chances like many of the "bigger" clubs do (and like we have). The basics of what they were doing, and how they played, was spot on, and it's how we should play given the players we have as it'd make best use of our best players.

Jayson Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Wham play with 3 upfront aswell atm anyway. Vaz te left, Cole central, Maynard right. Now they have Maiga to presumably switch with Cole or Maynard. Carroll goes where? Suppose they might just shove 3 big lads upfront, would suit Allardyce.

Yorkie Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 It became ballachingly clear that Demba Ba has a release clause too. Yes, thanks to Redknapp. He was the one that revealed it to the world before Pardew had to cut his losses and admit it on local radio. It's not the same. There's nowt criminal about Pardew's latest comments given the context. EDIT: and by context i don't just mean because it's that cunt of a club.

Disagree to be honest on the final point. Every team should be aiming to have as much possession as possible, but they should be aiming to be as incisive as possible with it, not making a few hundred passes per game in their own half/along the halfway line. We should be looking to retain possession as much as possible and playing it on the ground but not at the expense of actually cutting other teams open. I personally think if Swansea had kept Rodgers this season and the set of players they had last season, they'd have been in my relegation top three Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Latest quotes from Rodgers: And when speaking to the media in the US ahead of Liverpool's friendly with Roma, Rodgers said: "Andy is a terrific young player. "I had a brief chat with all the lads and over the next couple of weeks I'll be able to speak to them with more confidence and on a one-to-one basis. "There is no doubt he is a terrific talent. "There has been a lot of unfair criticism aimed towards Andy. "He is a player who can play in a number of styles and it was a wee bit unfair on him (for people) to say he couldn't fit into the way I would want to play. "For me, your game is based on your players, the players you have. I am here to win games. "We've got a number of very, very talented players in the group, of which Andy is one."

Yorkie Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Rodgers is just backtracking after the earlier massive cock-up. He made his bed with the Carroll thing; he can have no real complaints at other managers talking him up. His first quotes were a "go and get him" to everyone, regardless of whether or not he's changed his mind/had his wrists slapped for talking shite.

Jayson Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Surely the whole issue with Redknapp is he does it to unsettle players who clubs want to keep. If he did it over Alan smith, i doubt we'd all have been having a go. Pool have been acting like they dont want Carroll, theyve unsettled the situation in the first place.
