for the record, I think many didnt want us to buy Lallana at the price we did... I didnt and he still hasnt convinced me it was the right move.. I was wrong on Lovren, though I thought we over paid for him.. i didnt expect him to be WC, but i thought he'd be solid... AND I was assuming he was brought in to replace Skrtel, not partner him... wrong again..

SCH likes it both ways, changes as the conversation goes... apparently we're one of the richest clubs in the world with enormous spending power... but this summer, as we spent... it was all, you are going to run afoul of FFP...



how the frick did I change the conversation

And yes you guys were under FFP investigation for the previous two season and yes you are one of the richest clubs in the world. Being a rich club doesn't keep you from FFP rules.

Ok so your second biggest rival taught him whatever LFC didn't. If that makes you feel better. By the way, United were his second choice after the Liverpool job.

Sloppy seconds in so many ways. Loyalty to your two biggest rivals. We made his legend.

Its been too long since we've had a bantz off. Sunday absolutely should not hurry up. I'm relishing the fact that we haven't yet lost by 3 goals.

Yeah they've been bailed out by the fact that their strikers are ridiculously clinical. They get two chances, none generated by their own play, and they absolutely bury them. As much as we'd like to use that as an excuse, its the difference between a good team and a poor team. If you gift United chances, even when they aren't playing well and are injury ridden, they will make you pay.

I'd take it... cause we sure dont create many of our own these days

edit: that and a competent goalie, which I'd also take..

Y'all relish that hindsight. But don't act like you honestly believed you'd be competitive with this year's LFC team at the end of last season.



I definitely wasn't giving up that hope. Remember, we won the league by 10 points the year before Liverpool finished second. We had the wrong manager but a good foundation of players. We were expecting a new boss and had money to spend in summer. It wasn't like Liverpool was some sort of unstoppable juggernaut.

When we were routinely winning the league, it never stopped Liverpool fans from thinking they would finish above us the next year. Then, Liverpool finishes above us in the league once in 20+ years, and it's assumed we should give up all hope of even being "competitive" with the scousers this year

Well, other than the Hodge, we never had a year like you did under Moyes.

Until now....

So yes, it's different.

My favourite personal memory is overhearing Gary Neville asking Paul Scholes by the United team coach if his red card (in a 1-0 win at Anfield in 2007) was deserved and Scholes matter-of-factly grunting 'Yeah' in the way only he can.

I don't get it. Joe is a pretty good holding midfielder and one of the only bright spots for us this year.

And yes, I think most lfc fans would agree that was a Mickey Mouse treble.
