So you're saying 2 Kuyts are better than one?

That's not what I'm implying, no. Kuyt is under-valued by many but that's old news.

Keane's works very hard when he doesn't have the ball.
The pressure game against the reigning EPL and CL champions paid off & it was a deserved victory.

Nice read about Fowler and Berbatov.

if keane didn't work very hard when he didn't have the ball, he wouldn't do anything at all. still, it took crouch 3,578 games before he scored for liverpool, and he turned out to be a pile of shit too. so, eh....

ah no, robbie's grand. riddle me this though, how does he get picked all the fucking time, when babel has won two games for the pool and hasn't started yet?

Different type of player innit.

Keane works harder than Babel. Run the centre-halves ragged for seventy plus minutes. Babel comes on with his fresh legs and does what he does.
Actually if you look at Babel's goal on Saturday it was Robbie dragging two Mank defenders towards Van Der Saar that gave Babel the space to place his shot.

Babel should have come on against Villa, mind.


What's the story with Agger?
Has he thrown his dummy out of the pram?

Ah Agger will figure eventually. It's no harm really considering how he struggled to overcome his metatarsal injury last year. I wouldn't be surprised to see him brought on at some point this evening.

I heard over the weekend he had a row (training ground bust-up) with Rafa. Wasn't even in the squad against the Manks.
Hmm. Hopefully he'll get a run-out soon.

Fair point to Keane's enterprise but Babel's a right footer and a striker to boot and he's had maybe twenty minutes either up front or on the right since he got here. I'm hoping that Riera should change that situation rather than simply relegating him to impact sub.

I'd be fairly confident that once Keane breaks his duck, he'll start scoring for fun. It's his M.O. in all fairness and even if he doesn't, I doubt there'll be continuing harrumphing about two club footed dervishes in the starting XI if we continue to win that impressively.

Big Al who drinks in the Oak Pub on the Anfield Road. (Bloke down pub).

It was all over Liverpool on Saturday that they'd fallen out.

Ah that's right you were over. Hmm, the one guff I really have with Benetiz is that he doesn't seem to have the people skills to keep his squad happy a lot of the time.

I read it this morning too, can't remember where but most likely Guardian. Said that it had been reported in the Danish press, in Daneland. I've a strange feeling that the Marseille game is going to be a goalfest tonight.

 

[Mitchum]

Yup. Proper Old Skool is Rafa.

Strange sight up in Dublin Airport on Saturday morning. Couple of Ryanair flights to Liverpool and Brum were grounded. we were on a flight to Manchester and lads were just handing us tickets asking us to sell them outside the ground.

Sure he can't do that, has to be done within a specified period of the last game of the season, not mid-season.

just the one, eh?

He's not a striker really, he was brought up in the Ajax 3 up top tradition and played most of his dutch club football out wide. The current pool attacking formation is as close to the one he's used to playing as anything. And as far as the right footed thing goes, he's always played on the left, like Overmaars and Pires.

 

[Wheels]

just the one, eh?

I have other guffs, but they don't bother me as much.

Agger rumour makes no sense, Ithought you had to be over 26 or 28 to buy out your own contract? Rumour is probably about as reliable as the one that was doing the rounds last season.
