Official Liverpool Thread

[fineintent]

Being an Everton fan, I might be expected to rub it in, but I won't.  All I'll say to the kopites is, it's not nice when your best, home-grown player buggers off, is it?

He's just like his bezzie mate, eh?

If Chelsea are to sign him, they better get it done sharpish. I, personally, don't want him to play again TNS ad have him cup tied for the Champions League.

And, wouldn't the armband go back to Hypia? I agree though, Carragher a better choice.

I never said I blame Gerrard or Rooney for leaving, just that it's not a nice feeling. This could be could good for Liverpool in the long run, maybe they can get a centre back with a bit of pace.

Well, i always knew they way he would look concerned, and never gave a proper answer after the final when hundreds of interviews attacked him with "So are you staying with Liverpool?" and he had the most guiltist face and said "er.... im gonna let this all sink in"

Well its sunk in, and i think hes selfish really. Altough the money Chelsea are othering is not to be sneezed at, 100k a week to play for your home, when playing football is not just a proffesion, but a passion is every players dream. Im disapointed that now, we've lost the best Midfielder we've had in many many years, one of the only remaining English players on the squad, and that he's sold out to the Champions of England. Asshole.

On another note, Crouch sucks and i hope he gets injured so he doesnt have to play

For wishing pain upon Crouch, I should slap you - hard. And he's hardly being selfish. People seem to forget footballers are people, and have to make career decisions for THEMSELVES, not for you.

Gerrard, Liverpool through and through?

My fucking arse.

He is going to Chelsea and that's that.

Greedy cunt.

[fineintent]

Gerrard used to be everyone's example of a loyal player, now who will people use?

Don't say Carragher, because no one has come in for him.

[Summers]

Gareth Barry?

Raul perhaps? I know he was originally at Atletico, but he's been at Real a long time now.

Maldini? Or the brutally obvious Matt Le Tissier.

How very very odd. I'm glad he's staying now, though, I couldn't imagine him anywhere else really.

[Dan]

Swerve~!

[Summers]

What the fuck is going on in that kids head?

[evertonfan]

Is this going to happen every year then? Gerrard be on the verge of leaving, only to then change his mind? At the press conference last year he didn't exactly sound delighted to be staying, I can't wait to see what he has to say now.

[AJ]

What a fucking drama queen.

He's lost points in my book for being a tit. I never could've seen him leaving Liverpool anyway. Why would you want to leave a side that just won the Champions League? (Except if that side is Porto.)

[lanky316]

He did the old "hold my club ransom until I get a payrise" routine that's so popular these days. The difference is he's such a crucial and influential player to Liverpool they had to cave in.
