Mate, you expected professionalism from a brownie point hunting scum? I don't blame him, he was borned jealous of LFC but I rather blame his producers because if they allowed this kinda of a scum remark, then they are to be held fully accountable. But then again that show is crap ever since Jamie Yeo left. Now they included some scum juice on a crap show means you can now definitely flush it down the sewer, where both of it belongs

Espanyol going after Poulsen.

To be honest, we are not that worried about Meireles departure. The real issue here that the conundrum here is that star players no longer want to play for Liverpool and this trend is very unsettling. We need to look at the bigger picture.

Then again,  when u keep on buying unproven overrated English players for a ballooned fee it doesn't help that much either.

I only fear that we may become the next Arsenal.

I don't know exactly the point you are trying to bring to the table when you said Arsenal become like Liverpool after that 8-2 thrashing but I sure as hell know what I'm saying when I said

"We may become the next Arsenal"

as I was pointing to the fact that star players like Nasri and Cesc began to lose confidence at the club because the club wasn't spending their money wisely and investing on duds instead of proven quality players which eventually led to their departure.

He hand in a Transfer Out request just like Torres and it was on the last day of the transfer window

Regardless of whatever REASON they left, does it really relevant that much in this discussion?

The point is, they all left to join other teams because they figure they will have a better chance of winning silverware elsewhere but not in Liverpool.

You think by moving to Chelsea, Meireles will get to start in more games than he was in Liverpool? Of course not, he will be benched just like another squad player just like how he was in Liverpool. But he certainly feel more comfortable and higher chance of winning having surrounded by more quality players around him.

Why Nasri or Cesc's departure are deemed irrrelevant? They left Arsenal with the same thing in mind, to join a stronger army hence giving them a better chance of winning. So does Torres. Mind you , Mascherano joined Barca to warm their bench eventhough he was a starting 11 in Liverpool.

Put yourself in Meireles's position, you have been offered a chance to move to a stronger team, will you take the plunge? I'm not alluding that we are not on par with Chelsea, but unless we start winning games consistently and silverware and able to KEEP HOLD of our good players, our players will continued to be poached by rivals without any loose change.

both have excellent reading of the games for behind. pace wasnt hamann's forte esp when we had succession of games. i remember in GH era, where against the likes of traditional english mid-lower clubs using long balls we were often caught out of position. in those games, their swift counter attacks almost made hamann non existent. I use to curse "oh no, not again" when under GH we have not been known to be a club which scores a handful of goals.

in this respect sissoko covered more ground defensively (except sissoko's ball control / reading of the game was not in hamann's class). Masherano was almost as good as hamann's reading but had better energy/pace in entire game.

DISAPPOINTING!!!!

I really don't understand why KD didn't sub in Caroll earlier. Kuyt obviously didn't and can't do anything at all against Stoke's strong and tall defenders. All the attempts of goals came from the wings. Were they expecting Kuyt and Suarez to head them in? And Carra.... Adam looked tired. You can really see. No spirit at all. I don't f***ing get why he did some of the passing he did.
Henderson HAS got to improve on his finishing. It was 1 vs 1 with the keeper and he decided to go for the middle... Really got to improve the midfield play as well. All I saw was pass forward the middle, pass back then pass to the wings. I don't see how we are gonna go against Man Utd and Man City at this point. KD has to do something!

henderson doesn't strike centre.he scuffed his shot.(possibly bcoz of the 'long grass' tactics?)

btw.Meireles assisted chelsea's sturridge goal with a beautiful through ball...

We need someone who can cope with Suarez type of play. KD should've spent more money on good strikers. I'm gonna say it. Henderson and Bellamy are wasted money. He could've got himself a good striker to support Suarez. And Caroll definitely got to lose some weight man. He couldn't run at all...

My mistake. Too frustrated to type properly right now. There are some Man Utd supporters in this mamak I'm in right now keep talking shit about Liv. lol...

have to admit carra lost us this game. hope kenny can bench him like he did to carroll.
