Selling Bolo, Gonzalez AND Kewell all at one go would be like shooting your left foot 3 times. Kewell is staying.

From the games I have seen, he is quite different. More direct, less tricks but faster.

What irony! Sentimentality are those who DON'T want him back because 'the way he handled himself when he wormed his way out of here in the first place'. I agree that there is a risk that his injuries may be lingering but your original post that he can never be as good as he was is without evidence.

Jon Obi Mikkel Beckham's ?25M is a huge sum. All that plus the fact that their squad was significantly better than ours at that time, even if there were no further additions.

His strike rate in the past few seasons (injuries notwithstanding) does not indicate that he is worse off than he was. As of the caniving so and so bit; I can't remember a game while he was with us that he did not work his socks off. Enough said.

Free transfer for Sami is a god send for club managers.

He's just been awarded French Player of the Year 2007. Can't be too shabby.

To be fair, he has been having more than 2 good games in a row recently.

You should have thought of this last August....

It will be bizzare to see him leave. Over the last two years, he was an ever present in the first eleven and more than any other player (Gerard included) has dictated the way that we play. Can't help but feel that if he leaves, we'll see a very different Liverpool play.

For me this can't be worse than Istanbul.... not unless we are 4-0 down at half time.

I'm sure I'm touching a raw nerve here. But why would Chelsea doing a triple be less of a pain than Mancs doing a double? Why would you detest ManU more than Chelsea? To say the least, ManU is a football club that is run successfully with a sustainable business model while Chelsea, imo, is nothing more than a rich man's play thing with a purchasing policy which is down right obscene (to put it kindly). Is it the manager? I can't see how the loud mouth, ball less, it-is-everybody-else's-fault-except-mine Jose is any less annoying than Alex ferguson. Is it the fans? They both have annoying fans which gets on the nerves (so are some of ours). While it is true that historically ManU as a club has caused us more pain than the others esp over the last 10 years, but shouldn't Chelsea be accorded the same level of disdain and hatred on account of the recent years? Or is it just our insecurity that Man U might actually threaten our record of 18 titles?

I don't get this bitterness against Lucas Neill. So he decided not to join us but what's the big deal. He is not worth these expressions of outrage.

Haha, be glad that he can save better than he can choose a car.

I have no wish to shed crocodile tears.

ffs

he is already a bargain.

Agree. I'm sure he can act like a nice guy if you take him away from football for a while...

I agree. Not because he is a better player than Kyut but because he offers a very different option. A stiker who can dribble at speed and high work rate must be an enticing option for Benitez.

Was it you who said that Pennant is the best crosser in europe? If you did, it will be hard to take any of your analysis seriously...

By that definition: He would either be on the bench the whole match or taken off in the first minute if he starts. we have Fowler. Others need not apply.

Unfortunately someone who can dribble at speed like Ronaldhino, Ronaldo are not exactly a dime a dozen. Pennant has been good for the price that we paid for. Don't think he will be able to do what you would like him to.

" oh pity we lost the final... that's no big deal 'cause we've got 5 and you only have 3." I don't see how that will work for me. .
