no offence taken RB - you should include Drogba on the failure list - his first season at CFC after Marseilles was appalling, it's just that Borini looks good at times but I recall someone like Kuyt giving your lot more options

impressed with Sterling again who made Danny Rose look what he is, an average fullback - it's great seeing players actually taking on defenders a bit like Ruel Fox did at Norwich but somehow was frightened to do at Spurs - Shelvey is getting more confident but a couple of opinions RB - where will Lucas play when he comes back and why the lack of substitutions yesterday ? was BR frightened of losing the point ?

still not convinced about Bale believe it or not ! a fine footballer who needs better players, like Luca around him and Modric looked good with Parker as the workhorse so it'll be good to see how he blends in with his new team mates - big game for AVB who really is a man under pressure

I've always seen Gareth Bale as a "hack it forward and hope I'm quicker" type player as opposed to someone who takes you on with skill like a Ronaldo or a Robben type.

yeah, see what you mean but when he uses his pace he looks a dangerous player but seems to lack the confidence to take players on since he won footballer of the year IMO - that's why it's refreshing to see players like Sterling not afraid to have a go

unfortunately I come from an era when real wingers and attacking FBs like Terry Cooper :BOW: were ten a penny and the lack of such players today takes so much out of the game - are the players not capable or are these qualities coached out of them at an early age ?

Well actually, you're probably right. When I last went to Anfield there was more atmosphere on the moon.

Didn't say that. They do sometimes, not very regularly mind but it seems to becoming a regular occurrence these days at OT. I like it actually. Obsessive.

We've done it for years. You need to stop giving us ammunition. Rafa ranting, the racist, passing your 18, gerrard being a Chelsea rent boy. You've been a laughing stock for many years and stiil are with your worst start in 100 years.

must admit it was sweet when Man U got relegated - even better that it was Denis the Menace who sent them down :DANCE:

made up for it a bit since mind !


cant explain how it felt when Spurs were relegated and we only got promoted by luck the following year too ! :oops:
