He said half decent.

Tariq Panja is a reporter for Bloomberg

Oh no. What will we do.....

Seconded.

What legal action?

They must be really f***ed if this is true. Really really f***ed. Good times.

I don't there's a one size fits all approach to youth development. Fabregas is obviously exceptional, not just because of his talents, but he had the maturity as a 16 year old to deal with the pressure of playing in front of 40k people regularly and play well. These kids that we have may be similar in terms of talent, but they might not be there mentally. There's also the risk of burnout if they're started too young, like owen or michael chang. That being said, I would love to see these kids play, they all seem really exciting and talented, and have talent on the ball that our first team is missing.

Tragedy re-written as farce..

I'd say the opposite, he was the only fecker who could pass forward yesterday and find another player. Gerrard has gone back to hitting hollywood passes and hoping that they find someone.

We are utter dogs***. I think we've got worse since last season. Can't find each other...

Not according to the c*** himself Liverpool can forget about ever luring Jose Mourinho to Anfield. He said: “Manchester United would be a great challenge for me. But Liverpool is not the club for me. I know why, but I cannot tell you. “Tottenham, Everton... Arsenal maybe. These are all fine clubs with very good managers. “You can dream of what happens in one, two, three or four years. Who knows? I cannot say, but I think you have an idea of what I think about. http://www.mirrorfootball.co.uk/news/Real-Madrid-boss-Jose-Mourinho-exclusive-I-d-NEVER-manage-Liverpool-but-would-boss-Manchester-United-Arsenal-even-Tottenham-or-Everton-article562971.html

Think he was released because we couldnt get a work permit? (Plus some gangsters wanted to off him??) Journalists... so lazy....

Jesus, get a f***ing room...

£19 million odd for the other DIarra too...

Context man, dammit!

Known to the Arsenal Fans as 'Dribbly McNoScore'

Oh shut the f*** up, he's just trying to big up a new signing who's had his confidence battered over the past few years. He's doing his job. (For the record Messi > Hole)

Many people, some of whom know exactly what's going on, some of whom are guessing, are saying a wide variety of things, much of it contradictory. Business as usual.

This made me laugh

Adam Federici? I believe we were linked with him a while ago. Qualifies as home grown as he came to Reading when he was 17..

He was offered a new contract, but turned it down because he wasn't guaranteed first team football.................... Sami wasn't happy to be 4tch choice centre back, Soto is.

Agreed, I don't have a problem with this I don't want to be a plaything of a billionaire, I want us to be a succesful business on and off the pitch..

He looks like a footballer.

Yes
