I thought aerial defense was decent considering Crouch then Jones....


I was talking in generalities. We're consistently weak in the air. The problem today was marking, however.

Set pieces and counters have been problems for a while. Hopefully defending counters will be better with Lucas fully fit and Gerrard staying deep.

I couldn't tell, were we doing zonal marking still or back to man-marking?


I was way too drunk to decipher anything like that out.

I agree but you also say on another day we put 2 or 3 of those chances we missed in as well. I'll take it. These are the kinds of games we found a way to lose or draw last year.

No I agree. I told BPG at Finn's that we draw, possibly lose the match if it was still last season.

Still, they had too many quality chances off of set pieces. The ref sucked toward the end of the match, but our players need to know better than to give away fouls in our half in the last 10 minutes to Stoke.

Alright folks, take this with a pinch of salt but a tiny one. Joe Musker who is the only person on twitter who gets things right consistently just tweeted this:

Willian has told Liverpool he is happy to join the club.


Willian's in. Fingers still crossed I won't believe it until he's wearing the red shirt at Anfield.

Some twitter rumors that LFC is interested in Turan again.

Holy shite. Pull that of Ayre and I'll bow to your awesomeness.

Also Texeira is headed to Bologna on loan.

I'm seriously not kidding. If we keep Bale and get those two, my expectations will be a Premier League title. Tell me why not?

That would make the additions this summer:

Paulinho, Roberto Soldado, Nacer Chadli, Etienne Capoue, Willian, Fabio Coentrao, and a healthy Sandro, along with keeping Bale when nobody thought we would.

Best summer of all-time.

Pony up the money and pay the frickers. Damn. We haven't paid more than 9 mil for any player in this window. For the love of God, give them 30 mil.

In what alternate universe have I stepped into where Tottenham would spend that much money in a summer

I feel like Liverpool is turning into the current Red Wings. Only looking to pay what they feel what a player is worth, but are constantly being outbid. It's like we haven't realized market value has gone up.

This isnt about the fee paid to Anzi, it is about personal terms with Willian and the player's preference...

We can pay more in wages than them, but will London be a better draw??
