Like everyone else I have thought about this a lot. I think what it comes down to is do we trust Rafa's judgement? What impresses me is the way Rafa is so single minded about this - some people say its stubbornness but I think Rafa is too clever, too determined and too ambitious to jeopardise everything he is working for by stubbornness and vanity. If Rafa gets this right it could deliver big time for the club and so I think he should just be allowed to get on with it.

When was the last time the top flight in football was won by a manager with a beard? I'm afraid history may be against us.

Great Robbie video

I'm kinda hoping he'll be here next season. Is that so wrong?

Did Warnock complain when we fielded a "weakened" side against them on the first day of the season?

More mind games perhaps? Real wanted Rafa and not Jose even though Jose might be free at the end of the season? http://www.liverpoolfc.tv/news/drilldown/N...070418-0928.htm

whatever it is please let it be true

I'll take being called Champions of Europe for another 12 months.

Momo is a ball winner. He often wins the ball from the opposition when surrounded by opposition players and consequently has limited options in terms of passing which I think goes some way to explaining his tendency to give the ball away. The obvious person for him to pass to is Alonso but he plays quite deep at times. Momo can improve as he gains more experience but more support from other midfielders would help.

So, is this the first mention of Rafa's 100 year plan?

so thats why they sing your big and f***ing hard.

I don't think its cruel to the kids unless the academy leaves them unprepared for a future outside LFC or football. Credit to Heighway I think the academy has always tried to ensure that does not happen at least from what little I know about it.

Nice to see Macmananam's name on that list and not for the first time in one of these matches for a good cause.

I think he just failed to engage brain before speaking.

Reasons to hate Arsenal 1. Their players wear gloves 2. Wengers attitude "we play the best football so if we lose there must be a conspiracy against us" 3. That horrible electronic advertsising hoarding thingy er....

For all the praise that is heaped upon Arsenal I think their play is rather one dimensional. I can't say I enjoy watching them play that much.

Why would anyone pay millions for the naming rights? Presumably because matches from Anfield are televised globally creating brand awareness. But hang on one of the things the new owners will want to do is promote the Liverpool brand more actively on a global basis. The name is Anfield is inextricably linked with Liverpool as brand. Therefore the club should forego the lost revenue from naming rights in order to acheive its objective of promoting the brand globally and should call the new stadium....Anfield.

There is no guarantee we would have won, ok we wouldn't have concede six but what about the psychological effect of losing to Arsenals reserves?
