Is he British or American? Not that it makes any difference to the things he said, I'm just curious

Nope. So come on what did he say?

This guy it ruthless in terms of perfection - and he likes his horse racing, a man after my own heart. When his favourite horse Dubai Millenium died prematurely he loved the horse so much he bought every horse that Dubai Millenium had sired. It cost him millions !! Personally, I think he was ( or his company was) the best of the options for take over.

Benitez, that's cracker that. I'll have a look over it and saunter into the bookies at lunch and have me a Champions League footy bet. You've got to be soooo careful in the latter stages as teams who are fancied to win (but have nowt to play for) play under strength sides or just throw in the towel. Thanks again !

That game was fecking garbage, I laid Watford to win with 25 minutes to go. I don't think I've seen a poorer Premiership team, they were truly awful!

Are we kicking towards the Kop in the 2nd half?

Ever thought of buying a paper of a morning? Bet you trawled the empty train seats until you found the Metro or even worse took it out of a bin as you entered the carriage

Going to the match has always been part of me. When I first moved down South it absolutely killed me not going week in, week out. I used to come up to visit my Mum and rest of the family, go to the game , have a few drinks, a good old shout and sing, go into town another few after, then back to me Mam's for some scouse / some spare ribs few whiskies. Full brekko the next day then train back to London town. Then my missus got a job that paid loads more but meant she had to work Saturdays - I was stuck looking after the kids. Hardly ever getting back up to the Match or family. Recently, well over the last 2/3 years, I've been lucky enough to get upto games and to games in London, some abroad,too ( with loads of help from people on here and family) I've been able to go to the games more frequently and in addtion re-connect with my passion for going to the game and all that it entails , the meeting of friends , the experiences of new grounds , banter etc. Now my immediate family have gone, there'll be no "reason" to come to Liverpool other than go to the game ( I'll be a proper, "fee paying" OOTER ) but I'm determined to still come to the games. I must admit though. Even if I lived in and around Liverpool I'd find it very difficult to follow Liverpool home and away, week in week out, as it's so expensive and time consuming (in the family context) I admire people who do so, even envy them. Equally, I can fully understand that people who've previously been 100% ers are becoming disillusioned with all that is entailed in following The Reds. So what if this lad is going to Istanbul and not going to the game or doesn't fancy climbing the Everest that is involved in St. James's Park - I think we've all thought at some stage of our trekking around UK and Europe. What the f*** am I doing this for !! Especially, when in the "dark days" we were complete and utter garbage. A pint and post match sing song ( a la Highbury a few weeks ago ) soon sorted that out

Really? I'd be very surprised if he did. I'd have thought he would be odds on to go to America. In fact, I saw in my local Corals yesterday he was quoted at 3/1 to move to an American club and thought that'd be a reasonable price. Still, what do I know !

I think last night's performance from Kuyt was a combination of things 1. He was trying too hard against a team from the country he represents 2. He maybe knackered ( and slightly injured - he got a knock playing for Holland, didn't he?) 3. He and Crouch occasionally made a similar run/ didn't link up too well/ took the same position. I'm still not convinced Kuyt/Crouch is the solution up front against teams that pack the defence. Although its early days yet. And Rafa knows more about football than I do

Had a patent Werder Valencia Bordeaux Not for a lot - but nice !

In order to be a top class winger you need to beat the defender and supply a quality and convertable cross or pass to a forward player or attacking midfileder. Placcy does this excellently and United, when attacking , encourage their midfield players to give the wingers options with a cut back cross to say Scholes or Rooney or Saha or a far post ball to be headed in At the moment I think a great part of Liverpool's problems stem from this. Namely, the wingers aren't beating players ( in fact recently our wing play has been woeful) AND when we do get behind the full backs the team isn't attacking enough to give the winger options other than float a ball into the centre that Crouch or Kuyt might capitalise on. Placcy is a good player ( although his running style cracks me up - those little legs compared to his torso going twenty to the dozen) but he is playing in a system that is making him look good, too. Here endeth the lesson. Go in peace to love and serve the Lord. Amen
