It was pure class by Finnan, just killed it on his thigh, and passed it. He is a top player, some inside Anfield rate him as the best in Europe. I have to agree.
Well, things have changed since I wrote that, 7 weeks is a long time to be dragging quotes back. Back then it looked like they were going to survive. Now, they look f***ed.
No, Bent is a better player than Harewood, has scored more goals and has a better all round game. By the way, of all the things you can call Andy Cole, a one season wonder isnt one of them. If we wait, and get to Xmas and Bent has scored 10 or 11 goals for Charlton, there will be all sorts trying to get him. I think he is well capable of scoring plenty of goasl in this league. I am not saying he is the answer to all our problems, but a definite improvement on Cisse and Morientes. I would still want us to sign another top striker.
I honestly dont know how you can say he is not good enough? Not proven consistently? maybe. But from what I have seen of him, he looks a good player, quick, good in the air, strong, aggressive, decent touch and most importantly, absolutely loves scoring goals.
There is definitely something afoot regarding investment, I heard that a big deal was 3 weeks away ( whatever that mean ), and by big, I mean, massive, something about an Asian business man, maybe this could be him.
I agree with that, I would love to get a couple of pacy forwards ( Bent, Defoe, Owen, DJ Campbell -joke) and try and get SWP too. Front 6 of Gonzalez, SWP, SG, Xabi, Owen and Bent would create plenty I think.
I love Henry, he is f***ing class and he knows it, he has the bit of arrogance required to perform on the big stage. Self-confidence added to ability is a potent weapon.
Prepare for some hideous news regarding Chelsea's incoming for next season. Ballack is done and for the first time they will have a world class forward in the team, although he tends to miss the odd penalty in the Champions League
