Any reason you left out Voronin, who is on the bench?

one major benefit to bringing in english players has to be that in the vast vast majority of cases, when they move to a big english club, they will be there until the club has had their use of them. A lot of the south american and spanish players seem to see England more as a stepping stone.

Very very true. Include the rest of Britain and Ireland and possibly even Scandinavia in that.
Problem is even with those other countries it's not nearly as good a talent pool. This part of the world is seriously weak when it comes to technical ball skills. South america and Spain are light years ahead with youth developement in that regard.

Alonso has an ankle knock, was treated by the Doc this morning.

Apparently.

Edit: He's actually at the match.

Some of those Thai women in the crowd are crackers!

. . Surely by then Lucas will have learnt how to pass the ball to his teammates, or is that wishful thinking.

I was watching the Liverpool 4 0 Bolton game from 2007/08 on LFCtv last night. Alonso was injured so Lucas was in the middle with Gerrard. He, Lucas, was passing the ball 40 yards on ocassion and he actually looked pretty comfortable through the game.

found a few on justin.tv, but not great.

whats the deal with squad numbers lads, we have no numbers 3, 4, 6, 7 this year.

mike65

So they are coming back after the league starts to a country they will have played in only a week earlier?

that thai lad must fancy himself as a replacement for alonso
(just tried to lob cavalieri from halfway)

that epl side could be any one of 6-7 teams...

At a club like Bohs nothing is kept quiet for long. Official announcement on Monday apparently. http://thebohs.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=11083

Heh, I can only imagine the type of team Liverpool would play in this match.

The "fans" will be disappointed.

by "fans", do you mean the 4 year old to 15 year old young fellahs, who have been begging their da to take them to see liverpool, and this is the only chance they may get to see their idols?

oh gawd, it's all agent created nonsense.

Which could be easily cleared up with Masch saying he wants to stay at Liverpool, which doesn't seem to be happening.

That suggests two things for whatever personal or proffesional reasons.

1. His agent is doing what he wants ie engineering a move abroad
2. He wants a better deal with Liverpool.

Surely theres a better way to go about this?

All this Alonso and Masch talk must be effecting the team in some way.
If they want to go why not go now, not saying we shouldn't try and persuade them to stay at all, but the bottom line is if they aren't happy to play for Liverpool, sell them and try and get in players ASAP.

That's no way to talk about League of Ireland fans in fairness.

Had to laugh at this text commentary on LFC site

35 Min
Degen is in a brilliant position in the box but the ball's on his left foot...never mind

Guessing, but isn't that week of the champs league 2nd qualifyinf round? Which means arsenal and Chelsea are busy. So Man U, Man C, or Pool.

Just saw a reply of Babel's goal - almost choked when I saw Carragher look up, spot Babel's run and loft it into his path perfectly.

Who needs Alonso.

Come and go!" says Rafa Benitez from the touchline. It's not clear who to, but I thought you'd like to know.

Reid is screaming at his players from the touchline. He'll be very pleased with their efforts tonight.
