Rodgers selling him brings up further questions of his tactical nous tbh. If I came into that club, I'd be bending my back getting Andy Carroll to find his form because he's an absolute beast. The fact they want to sell indicates that Carroll's head is either completely fucked in the sense that he's desperate to leave or Rodgers won't change his sidewards passing, stat-wanking style despite having a very different type of asset at the club. He could want to raise his own money but you flog him for £15 million (and that's optimistic), what will that really get you unless you're willing to go about your business like us? Which, Liverpool (or maybe Comolli wasn't) quite clearly aren't.

RIP indeed. Live in Japan features him completely taking the piss out of everybody on Earth who has even entertained the idea of playing keyboards.

Most pre-season friendlies are like that tbf. Thought Biggie looked very good, Amalfitano surely isn't a winger, Marveaux looked tidy, Obertan had some canny runs, Tiote's sheer quality shone through. Good little fitness exercise.

Lee Ryder knows nowt. A few kids on Twitter have better sources and I wish I was kidding.

I associate them with good memories so despite last year's being a bit ropey, it's one of my favourites. Same with the 95/96 kit and the NTL kit we had in the Champions League.

THIS WILL BE MINT

Aye, it was a kick in the balls and hindsight can be a lovely thing but really, as an isolated transfer, it shouldn't be taken into account. It wasn't a lack of ambition or "cashing in", it was a desperate offer from a club who had no clue how to buy players (or a manager rather). If we start seeing players like Cabaye and Ba being told to frig off, both of who have said they enjoy their football here and don't want to leave, then we can start worrying about selling our players.

Aye, getting a ridiculous offer. That sort of money for one of our players is literally unprecedented and can't be taken into account in discussions about selling players IMO. Any club would have sold him.

G-Force?

Another Obertan that, man.

which was? Pre-season fitness gaining friendly, players like Obertan, Sammy and Vuckic who were injured toward back end of last season got a run out, new signings got to play with the team, no loss.

There's no way we'd give them any of our key players for Carroll btw, that's mental thinking.

Knowing Perch's pass completion rate toward the back end of last season, Rodgers will probably want him to be his new Leon Brittain. Ooh, 84% possession, we're 4-0 down but we have the pass completion in our favour, baby. What do you mean, sacked?

It helps but they tweak a lot of the characters and use them better. Also, Adam Scott and Rob Lowe come in and take it to the next level.

Got any to spare or is it just the same codes that somehow don't work for me?

Someone must be sewn up if they're letting him go. I think he would have got plenty games next season tbh so if he wants money to not play in Europe, then so be it.

He's not on fire.

tbf, I think my Mam used to say 'bum'

My mother used to say the same, that's just reminded me. The things that make you laugh.

I reckon a centre-half will come in but it'll be similar to Biggie. Young player who can play when needed and hopefully develops. Hopefully Perch can put some decent shifts in there like he did toward the back end of the season.

Reignited his goalscoring form when he was on loan.

Last time Pardew said we were going to take a while getting someone in, Papiss Cisse turned up the next day. Relax, man.

Couldn't hack him doing that like. Bottle of piss straight at him if he's going to be knocking me sick.

Gimme Shelter was by Merry Clayton according to its playlist on BBC.

Is it shite. Does it have a bloke called COMEDY DAVE? Nar, try again.
