Jackie Broon Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 I see us starting this season much better than in previous seasons, where Rafa's rotation has left us way off the pace by the time the squad is up to speed. Even if we don't finish as strongly as under Rafa (barring last season), I reckon it will have a positive effect on the side. Hopefully, top 4, but it's touch and go. What if you don't? How long can the club go on living beyond its means, haemorrhaging more and more money? There's no guarantee that a saviour will come along and bail you out.

Aye, but do you have the players fit enough (and injury free) to cope with Roy's pretty constant starting 11 philosophy? All good and well starting the season strong, but if you're shattered with a good quarter still to go, you'll soon drop down the table. You mean like every other team? Take a step back, boy, and make the effort to apply the same standards to everyone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shearergol Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 Midfielder Javier Mascherano has been told he can leave Liverpool, having held talks with the club's hierarchy. Lost your two best central midfielders in two years then. Is Danny Murphy still available? Oh, and at least you've got Lucas. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 He's certianly got his feet under the table, he's shipped: Insua Aurelio Degen Benayoun Rodriguez Riera And has brought in: Young (supposedly in the pipe line) Wilson Jovanovic Cole Bloody good buisness so far, although looks as though he'll have to find a replacement for Mascherano which won't be an easy task.

Guest palnese Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 Mascherano is overrated anyway. Most Liverpool fans I know brand him as the best DM in the World. Meh, think not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

1878 Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 Mascherano is overrated anyway. Most Liverpool fans I know brand him as the best DM in the World. Meh, think not. Maybe the best stopper in the game but best all round defensive/holding mid? No chance. He can barely pass the ball. Would have been much better if it was Torres or Gerrard being sold to raise funds.

Dave Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 I've always felt I must be missing something when watching Mascherano play, because he's never seemed that amazing to me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElDiablo Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 Was Rodriguez on loan? Thought they'd already got Jovanovic aswell. Wish Hodgson hadn't have gone there, I like him as a manager but now will be forced to wish him to fail badly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdckelly Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 how much could liverpool realisticly expect to get for mascherano? reading david maddocks column on the mirror up to 30m which imo no side will pay Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish Hodgson hadn't have gone there, I like him as a manager but now will be forced to wish him to fail badly. rodriguez wasnt on loan it just seems roy wants rid. And they did have jovanovic already agreed well before roy joined liverpool Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovejoy Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 if the beeb at correct, it's very odd how they have 'several bids on the table' when the asking price is £800m (I know they won't even get half that) and we couldn't get one person (who actually had/could raise the dough) when Ashley was seemingly willing to accept £80m. makes you wonder whether he actually wanted to sell at all.

lovejoy Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 oh I totally accept that. they are a more saleable assett. but with their debt etc, are they ten times more attractive (based on rumored asking prices)? I think not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
