[ENG] Premiership 2008/2009 (4 Viewers)

To me, Babel is a winger in a Dutch style 4-3-3, which is what he probably grew up playing as.

exactly....ajax style of play.

this guy totally passed me by, Besian Idrizaj (21 y.o. striker bought for 190k and let go for free.)

We probably buy three guys a year like that, give them a 2 year contract and if they don't cut it, "see ya". A lot of major clubs do that.

Besian played with us since he was 18 and finished out his contract.

 

[Lucky Luke]

Oh he made it to England, even scored for us in the Champions League (M. Haifa?), but then he forgot what he came to do.

actually i dont remember that..
all i remember from him during his liverpool era was sitting on the bench

That's basically it. Mark got his goal and took a seat.

I have mo doubt babel will me a failiure ad a striker: in fact I think be is generaly poor.

That didn't make a whole heap of sense. Posting from an iPhone?

I used Babelfish.

 

[Fred]

Yeah, I remember seeing him play the year before we finally got him to Anfield. I think he was at Sociedad, he was fantastic for them. Then he put on the red jersey and forgot how to dribble.

yup it was for Sociedad, he was scoring screamers for fun at the time.

I've been hoping Rafa would give him a chance with Torres for while now.

I think that would be an ideal partnership

He played there for Ajax, but he impressed me most for Holland's U21's where he was played as a second striker.

It strikes me that Arsenal are a team with too many players who couldn't give a toss for the shirt they are wearing: have they got themselves another?

 

[Henry]

haha!


Quaresma moving is funny as fuck, but i'm gutted about Keane I really wanted him to do well, and I think most liverpool supporters did as well. I wish I knew what really hapenned behind the scenes with his original transfer, the whole Barry saga, etc

 

[Enron]

I wanted Keane to succeed as well. The whole saga is something to try and forget.

Its got more to do with lack of quality than lack of effort.

 

[.zero]

but you don't deny that the talent to win is there?

 

[Fred]

If its there, then i don't see it.

Are you trying to forget the laughing stocks made of themselves by The Pool?
The one involving a £20 million pound flop of a striker (managers a great man motivator) and subsequent loss of £5 million?

Liverpool are not laughing stocks. Considering Pool never paid the full 20 million and are sitting second in the EPL right now despite not having a "functioning" striker for the last 3 or so months. There are clubs that do far worse than the Liverpool in the transfer market. And so what if Pool want to forget about the Keane transfer, that is what teams generally do when transfers don't pan out.

Oh come on now, they buy a player for £20 million and sell him back to the same club they bought him from for £12 million six months later!

That has got to be worthy of a stick your head in between these two planks, you are the offical town idiot award.
