Problem solved, Gerrard jersey on the way!





Does anyone know how these shirts fit? Do they run small, or big?

No idea, figured y'all would know. I'm expecting it to be tighter than I want it to be and to use it as additional motivation to lose weight.

They aren't tight... I bought mine in same size I'd buy a t-shirt and it fits great (also same size as Adidas previous)

I think the Warrior jerseys fit more true to size. And Adidas runs a but longer in length but much tighter fitting.

Nike just makes all their shite big and long. Why? I have no idea.

Cuz it's the american thing to do. Now I am not from here and I am not being critical but from what I've seen most clothing here runs bigger (might just be the south but I'm not sure). The rest of the world likes better fitted clothes.

Also whispers on the twatter of Brendan only wanting to invest in A grade talent in the summer make of it what you will.

I'm about half way through Carra's book and he mentions that it was Houllier's arrival in the late 90s who brought an end to that at LFC... Said he couldnt believe the drinking culture in England and kept tabs on all the guys...

Carra credits him with changing his life habits around and allowing him to play so long at a high level...

Yeah, Carra had a tremendous amount of respect for Houllier, who got us back on the right track after the "Spice Boys" era... we started winning trophies again... Unfortuantely, he said it was a tale of 2 eras... his first couple of years and then after his heart condition, his last couple of years when he was a shell of the man he was...

He gave this account on how he dressed down Paul Ince (the captain) in front of the team and showed everyone who was in charge.. shipped Ince out the next year..

quote:

In his autobiography, 'Carra: My Autobiography', Carragher describes how Houllier underlined his authority by tearing a strip off Ince but ended his reign a broken man after being struck down by a life-threatening heart condition.

"Ince was the unwitting victim of the most brutal exhibition of management I have seen at Anfield," he says. Liverpool were leading an FA Cup fourth-round tie at Old Trafford 1-0 but, after Ince limped off, United fought back to win 2-1.

"There was a team meeting a week later, and Ince decided, as club captain, it was time to take Houllier on. He questioned training methods and the response was furiously impressive.

"Fixing Ince with a stare, Houllier asked: 'Since the day I arrived, how many five-a-sides have you won? Ill tell you 'four in six months.'

"Ince was bewildered, as we all were, by Houlliers memory and grasp of detail, and it didnt end there. 'Now perhaps you can explain to the lads what happened to you against United. When my team are 1-0 up at Old Trafford in a cup tie, I dont expect my captain to limp off with an injury. If he has to come off, I expect it to be on a stretcher.'

DAYUM!!!


Hopefully Rodgers has a little bit of that in his belly ... which after watching Being: Liverpool I think he does.


I might have to get that biography I have heard many of you say it was really good.

Here's hoping Herr Sturridge is fit as a fiddle for Sunday's visit of the tiny Tots.
