What is it with people today?

To say Remy is by far and away the better player is stupid. Because he just isn't.
They are much closer than you are making out.

We miss out on Remy and all of a sudden he's the best thing ever.

Its funny that you should put the focus of my post on Remy when it is actually on how poor Balotelli is.

Borini should have left when he knew he was surpluss to requirements. Instead he stupidly thought he could make it for Liverpool and change everyone's minds, of course he didn't because he doesn't have the talent. So Rodgers is then left with a player who didnt leave when asked and who still isnt good enough for the team, if I was Rodgers i'd be pissed off with him too.

I just get the impression that Borini is a little mental or a little dim. In saying that i still think he should be on the bench considering our current predicament with Strikers.

Was that your attidtide when Hendo was deemed surplus to requirements at the start of last season also? I for one sure am glad he did the stupid thing and turned down a move when he was deemed surplus to requirements.

Bony scores goals. Whats not to like?

To be perfectly honest when we were linked to him I had some foolish hope that we were in for a top quality striker and I was turning up my nose to the link. Never thought he would fit into our great system BR had once upon a time.

He'd be an instant upgrade in terms of productivity and output on what we have.

Lago Aspas scores 3 goals in 4 minutes. What's not to like?

I disagree with the opinions of those who follow different sports teams to me, whilst I agree with those who follow the same team when they are arguing against the aforementioned supporters of differing teams.

Don't pretend like you didn't miss these 'debates' when they disappeared last season.

They didn't disappear, they just moved thread and were faced the opposite way. I must admit I disliked it less then, but better to be avoided in general on here as it inevitably descends into crap.

How is it funny? You asked.

noodler wrote: »

What metric are you using to say Balotelli is better than Remy?

I jokingly said something about medals and you go on your weekly Balotelli rant below.

So, you want me to go through each line?

Bollox.

Being sold by Inter.

For 20m after helping them to 3 league 1 cup and the CL.

Playing every every now and again in a team with Aguero, Dzeko, Tevez, Silva and Yaya Toure before the manager decides to cut you loose.

He performed well at City but obviously is a nut case. The fact that he played a big part in that team stands to him (80 games in 2 and a half years). Fantastic players in every position.

noodler wrote: »

Then taking the penalties in a very poor Milan team before being cut loose.

30 goals in 54 matches. 10 from the penalty spot.

noodler wrote: »

Remy is easily the more effective player. Balloteli has never cut it as anything other than a squad player at a club packed with world class players and even then Mancini cut him loose.

Very harsh, he has played a big part in every team he has been in and has won CL and multiple league titles. He has a similar goal per games ratio to Remy and scored in every major tournament he's played in. And is younger.

Your hatred of him is clouding your judgement. You may prefer Remy but if you look at their careers you should realise you are incorrect in your assessment that Remy is "by far" the better player.

Since you made the statement Liam maybe you should be the one to defend it. So please tell us, in 500 words or less, why you think Wayne Rooney is on another planet to the Liverpool team. You may use mspaint diagrams to illustrate your theories.

Shhhhh they are joking about us. Dont disturb them.

The Utd team are awful, when Liverpool get their stuff together the players will be better than what they are and sturridge will be the second coming.

You take the place way too serious.

Is Rooney better than Lambert, Borini or Ballotelli? Course he is. He's as good as Aguero I heard recently! He probably earns more than them all combined 3 too. He's
past his peak though.

Is he as good as Sturridge could probably be debated. Very different players tbf and have different strengths.

Again nobody here said anything like this but if you come in telling everyone how great United are after finally winning a couple of games after god knows how long and how Rojo, Evans and Jones are the second coming of Franco Baresi then expect people to pull you up on nonsense like that. It's not Red Cafe in here.

I'm not laughing, I'm waiting for the bubble to burst, we'll lose a game could be to City could be to Burnely but we'll lose and its how we react in the games that follow that will define our season.

Over the opening 1/3 of games we've been probably the most consistent and thats often what you need to pick up points for titles but I wouldnt be writing off anyone catching us just yet, not while were only in December anyway

You needed strengthing up front and in midfield and you did it fantastically.

I wouldn't call the league yet as City are Champions and if Aguero stays they won't be far away. However, your squad is top class all over and has tons of experience.

the arguement orignally was that Liverpool will finish higher than utd, if liverpool get their house in order. I said no, based on utd having better players and appear to be in form and getting used to new tactics, but I was being being premature and we will know more in January to make a better call.

This was shot down, then Liam replied, then his hyperbole gets jumped on. No harm in a bit of hyperbole as ye should have seen it for what it was. No reasons as to why Liverpool will do better other than 'if they get their house in order', which I presume meant get their defence not being awful and balotelli and sturridge scoring? But utd are doing that right now, even with a defense of 2 awful wingers, 2 youth teamers, an 18 year old and a midfielder. Against City, Chelsea, arsenal, they conceded 3 or 4 goals.

This may be a liverpool thread, but the topic of discussing if Liverpool will finish above a certain team should be allowed to be debated. Liam and I have given our side, yer side so far has been lol fellaini is average, lol rooney in a nebula, lol thank my post.

If we had been 2 arsenal supporters posting about utd in this thread, nothing would have been said.



...so, why are Liverpool going to do better than utd this year, because as it stands, it dosent look that way, it looks like utd and arsenal for 3rd/4th.

But Liverpools target was top 4 no? so why cant ye discuss yer opponents?

Wouldnt be the first or last team to throw away a double figure lead.

Arriving in liverpool too late. I actually got a flight back from Manchester to shannon that night for 60 quid so it's not too bad. I'm only ten minutes from shannon.

Find it hard to laugh with the quality on offer at the moment.
If you discuss how great Balotelli & Lambert are then the quality of jokes should improve.

Ah Jaysus they are still here.....I'll come back in another few hours :rolleyes:

Jaysus no more!


Who'll play in the middle the weekend?

I'm assuming Lucas and Gerrard plays and two from Henderson, Lallana and Allen.

I'd go with the former two but Rodgers has to think of the CL game I guess

Between this and posting in Liverpool match threads when your own teaming are playing, you must be spending more time in here than the United threads m1Ck.

Id like to see gerrard rested to play the 10 position against basel, can/lucas/hendo midfield perhaps?

Mick, its been long since established that you are a far cry from a flag bearer for jokes, or humour in any relevant form.

Forgive us if we consult comic advice elsewhere.
