seemingly they weren't though ergo every other f***** was wrong

What he deserved is for us to have waited till he made the decision irreversible before hanging him for it

Benitez identifying him as the future CB was an excellent move but not one I think was that totally unexpected. i was suprised however to see that Carragher was getting forward more as FB after the injury against Blackburn Rovers and we disagree slightly in that I probably place less emphasis on the FB's ability going forward. That maybe my myopia. Regarding Finnan you may be being a little tough on GH. He was not the player in his first season at the club that he had been at Fulham but he had also had a number of injuries interrupt his progress. Josemi if nothing else gave him the kick up the ass he needed but I am confident he had everything anyway.

I understand what you are saying pam but I can't agree that Fowler got more support because he needed it. the support he got from the off was phenomenal and more due to the fact we identified him as one of our own as opposed to owen who was never really seen the same way

Agree with a lot of what you say but Finnan was exemplary at full back at Fulham the best RB in the league possibly and I have to disagree with regard to Carragher who has become one of the very best CB's around but was none to shoddy at full back either and had shone in that position when he came back from the broken leg

I think a lot of people should be ashamed of the way they spoke of our captain. I think that those people now who said they would never feel the same about him should consider what they said at the time in light of his performances for us now. We don't know what was going on in his head, we don't know why he considered the move to Chelsea, what his precise motivations were and what kept him here. Yet every f***** had an opinion and opinon that in the end came to f*** all

Here RAFAEL BENÍTEZ, the Liverpool manager, has been counting down the days until the transfer window opens on Sunday, but Rick Parry, the chief executive, has conceded that the chances of signing Simão, the Benfica winger, have receded considerably since being drawn against the Portuguese club in the last 16 of the Champions League. Parry said that a January deal for Simão had not been ruled out definitively, but, with Benfica?s adherence to a £10.3 million valuation strengthened by the prospect of facing the European champions over two legs in February, Benítez is now looking at alternatives. Mark González, the Chile winger, will join from Albacete if he is granted a work permit at the second time of asking, while a loan deal for Luciano Galletti, of Atlético Madrid, is being considered as a short-term solution on the right-hand side. Ronald Koeman, the Benfica coach, has indicated that a deal could be possible ? with Simão ineligible to face the Portuguese team if he moved to Anfield ? but Parry told the Portuguese newspaper, O Jogo, that it was unlikely, ?largely because we?re now playing the Benfica in the Champions League?. So we may have to make do with a lower profile wide player after all

Carragher has scored this season? Back to the point, the booing and the songs are completely different, the booing is out of order though I understand why people did. He was never taken to by the fans in the way Fowler was, he was always seens as maybe too middle class too straight too guarded, he never wore his heart on his sleeve regarding LFC and that's what we want. Look at how we praise players, regardless of their form if they say the right things to the press. For some these words will be genuine and heartfelt, others it will be a cynical attempt to curry favour with the fans. By and large we miss that and point to the players character off the pitch while ignoring his play on it. With Owen that has happened in reverse, his move to Real Madrid merely cemented the view that many had in that he never really gave a f*** about anything but himself, his move this summer merely confirms that while also adding to the idea that it was England first and foremost. So I am not bitter and I would not have booed him, I would however have sang you could have signed for a big club from the rafters
