actually, king kenny is the only person i'm excited to meet/see

the players... hmm....

Just read the news that Stevie g won't be coming. Of coz I'm dissapointed but I rather he not come and be 100% fit for the new season than come and not be fully ready when the new season kicks off.

Regardless I'll still go to see my team come 16th

Its already 6 days from the opening of international transfer windows but looking at our current situation its kinda worrying...n too many rumors but only 1 signing so far.. on top of tat all the the deadwoods r still around... Hope could see at least 3 - 5 new players.. Mayb a new LB, LW, ST, CB, RW/AM or even a new backup GK..

Hope DC doesn't wait till the end and the rush to buy! Hope we don't miss our targets as we r looking for value for money but the market is crazy so far... Keeping my fingers crossed by hoping to see some new signings soon and kinda disappointed as we gone miss few players during the tour n there gone b only 1 new face!

i know its for the best, but

this is the 3rd time for me that he aint comin to asia (singapore & thailand, singapore, and now malaysia) . damn sad.

2 pieces tickets RM108 (Red gate w/out training pass) up for grabs..
Selling both for RM 300 nett.
COD Subang, Damansara or Shah Alam..

Interested pls call Sara @ 012 - 2622435

apples - theo!!!!!

I dun understand why we could spend 16 million on jordan henderson who is young and untested yet but could not spend 20 million of downing who has proven himself with aston villa and england on a regular basis.... Pls wake up Liverpool money man... we want to sign quality players now, not potential. Potential needs time but we currently don't have the luxury of time....we need quality and we need it NOW!

I think its because you could offer Jordan a 5 year contract as he is a young player. Downing would most likely get a 3 year contract. From an accounting POV, the annual cost of the signings are very different.

Henderson at 16 million over 5 years is slightly over 3 million a year. Downing at 20 million over 3 years comes up to 6 million a year. That is almost double the accounting cost of Henderson. In absolute terms, this might only be 4 million difference, but from an accounting POV (which would have Financial Fair Play implications), Henderson is half the price of Downing. Of course, this could all change if Downing is offered a 5 year contract, but then, would you wanna offer a player at his peak a 5 year contract and lock in a very high wage? This is most likely Downing last big contract and he would try to milk it as much as he could.

His agent famously took 2 mil off the 5mil tranfer fees to Leeds. All I can say is he maybe badly advised but still he suppose to ok'ed the way the agent do his deal. If he's in his prime then I can understand but now???? Just think he wanna milk every single cent he can in his last contract & in his home country

As Duke mentioned, he's not the kinda player that loyal to a (our) club which cant exactly blame him as he can choose to be a professional with no emotion attached. But this just showed he's loyal to $$$ only.

not to mention that the possibility of Henderson's price tag going up is more likely to happen compared to Downing.

Lee's sharp exit shames Liverpool

I hope it's not true. Damn it!

whoa, so much behind the scene rumours!! who's coming, not going, transfer, not transfer etc.



well gerrard not coming to asia (for treatment/recovery for next season) is great delight to those anti-gerrard lfc forumers

his fans will be gutted but we wish him well.



its so rare to find a passionate player these days. some will give away the chance to find 'glory' (& obviouly a fatter paycheck) to remain to fight for the struggle to new throphies for the club
do they still exist? yes, but not a lot...& to have the supporters doubtiing your qualities & commitment...
sigh...


it has been slow for us in the transfer market, understandable. we aren't that attractive, yes no europe, & a few good men have already given us a miss. (even a perportedly better deal but nada)

so, having lfc seemingly being patient & scouting for good deals, is no different from our often maligned spainish dude. whom was pretty worse when there is little or no mullah backing.

its so rare to have players who would view liverpool as the the greatest football club & willingly play for it.

I don't think there is any anti-gerrard lfc forumers here. Just less fond of him that's all. I think it's both good and bad that Gerrard is not coming, bad because I've always wanted to see him play with my own eyes and good because he is getting the rest and recuperating for bigger things when the new season comes on the way.

IT was such a big disappointment when the news of gerrard not coming....I thought I'll be able to get a glimpse of him at least 1 times before he going to retired...

well, term used many to highlight the unsavory words (repeatedly too ) of our kapitan whom some have labelled as ... uh nevermind




next season is the more important season for liverpool, its where from the viewpoint of the board, we either play catch up or become also rans & forever be be 'outside' top four. we dont want to be the next leeds nor become what has ever happened to nottingham forest

every big football club is spending big to have a bigger quality squad, we had a very good core quality squad & often time & again found ourselves lacking when our squad always thumble during mid season/crucial continueous line-of-games.

trimming wages is important & having a lean squad is only good short term. perhaps not having mid week european (europa) is good as we fight back to chase the money spinning bread-n-butter ala CL for sustaining as a top level club & our persue to win domestic throphies.

It's no mystery why our club's goal appears modest when we said the goal next season was to haul us back into the top (and not 'over-promise' of "setting-to-win" it, but as often we often do fight for it with limited quality players)

I am shocked, no one bothered about how Sammy Lee was treated badly!
