re: Let's Talk about Liverpool

Jose Mourinho had homoerotic games of Crisco twister with Adrian Mutu and Carlton Cole while listening to this song. LINK

Arsene Wenger makes his team fly to Austria every preseason so he can teach the team a dance he once envisioned while he was sucking on some gogurt. LINK

Alex Ferguson, Steve Bruce, and Steve Hughes still meet every Monday afternoon for tea and listen to this song and cry. LINK

Phil Brown starts training out everyday by making Jimmy Bullard lead the team in a voice box rendition of this song, circa March 31st, 2005.

He makes them wear the corresponding electric socket masks and they have glitter in their hands they throw up in their air lebron style when the crash hits.

you're a woeful season

going into this year I thought he was absolutely terrible and the first two or three matches this year I hadn't changed my opinion. But since then, he's gotten better and better.

Is he world class? No way. But I think he might be at some point. He's made huge strides this year. He's now playing box to box and playing much smarter while still being aggressive.

He still lacks the ability to make that intuitive searching pass, but he's starting to at least take more chances. He used to only pass back and sideways. That's it. Now he's starting to venture forward.

Defensively he's really improved as well. Whereas he used to be a liability with his shite challenges and over aggressiveness (Gerrard had same problem), he's now he's breaking up attacks and playing instinctively. Against Villa I thought he was fantastic and that was his first chance to feature without Mascherano as a safety blanket.

Trust me, there are times I wish we had someone else there but that's mainly when I wish we had Alonso still. But I've seen so much improvement from Lucas in the last two years, to only be really encouraged. He's not a gamechanger yet, but he's certainly not the liability he used to be. That's all you can ask from in a young player in an extremely difficult position, is to see growth and improvement.

Him and Mascherano absolutely bossed around the ManU game and I really think that gave Lucas tons of confidence. Since then, he really hasn't been the same.

was Henry good when he first came to the PL?

Either way, my point is, is that Babel's skill set is extremely similar. They're similar in size, pace, looks, gait, a lot of stuff. Not saying he is Henry, just that like many others he has the talent to do similar things. Sure as shite doesn't mean he will,or even get close.

This is almost as bad as my Bendtner infatuation...

I think Bendtner will be awesome.

i definitely agree with you on that to a point.

For me, he's a great guy to have in the team against physical, aggressive teams. Teams where we need two holding mids (which I hate) and he can pair with Masch.

But I really think the reason Aquilani is so crucial to our chances going forward is because he needs to put Lucas on the bench. Masch is still definitely better than Lucas so if he's in as the holding mid, while Aqui is playing in more of an attacking role, I think that's where we'd have more success.

I defnitely agree that we desperately need more creativity and so far I've liked most of what I've seen from Aqui. He's given away a ton of possession, but he also searches for aggressive killer passes (like Alonso).

Most of all I just wish we still had Danny Murphy. Watching Fulham games is annoying for me because he's really been bossing around their midfield and doing everything that we currently need. Plus him and Gerrard are BFF and maybe he could light a fire under his arse.

no kidding.

I was watching today and from the 80' minute on I knew Reading would equalize. The result was absolutely fair and it's disgusting. They had at least 4 dead on chances at goal so while we were lucky to only concede two, we only had one great opportunity at goal (not our actual goal).

In 210 mins against a bottom of the table championship side, we scored one goal (one goal? That's all we got, was one god damn goal?).

We were outplayed thoroughly. I know it can, but for the time being it doesn't get more miserable.

I'm sure ya boi Steven Cohen will have some choice words for Scousers FC tomorrow.

Ok first, Bendnter is dreadful. I hate watching him do anything, like breathe, much less kick a ball around the pitch.

Next, Babel is uber-talented, and hopefully Birmingham pick him up so he can play under a real gaffer in time to get into the Dutch side. I fancy me a little be of the Dutch.

Last, Liverpool sucks.

That's my contribution.
