Incredible summer about to happen...

[genghis]

There seems to be a lot of smoke this year, and hopefully a big handful of fires making it. In the fantasy world where most of the signings come off, we might be looking at adding Bellamy, Kuyt, Alves and Aurelio/Areola (the left-back who sounds like a breast, replacing Djimi who just often plays like a t*t).

 

With one of the meanest young S.American defenders already snagged, and hopefully Snr Gonzalez clearing his arrival too, we will have signed a whole host of hard-working, tough-nut, skilful and/or fast players all over the pitch. I'm not going to totally start the mockers, but if we get five of those six, then next season may produce something very special indeed. A something that we've been waiting a decade and a half for.

 

F'ck me, this is a great time to be a Liverpool supporter - even when there's nothing happening at all, we're still dead exciting to follow

true

 

But since the Raffa turned up, I find it very hard to feel worried about things. The man is a f'ckin' genius, and having shown it on the pitch for 2 seasons, this summer he's going to show it off the pitch too.

good to be back, yer old fart

 

Don't tell anyone but I've landed a gig as a football journo for the summer (World Cuppage), so might get some interesting tidbits from decent sources. I will of course reveal almost nothing, and smatter ;)s everywhere. Wouldn't want to break the habit of a lifetime

I'd say there's actually a lot less smoke this year, our transfer targets seem to be a lot more concentrated and there seems to be a consensus as to the direction Rafa is heading this summer. Last year there were links left, right and centre and we had no idea if any of them were true or not.

Hi Genghis, no long time no hear! You'll have to come by Ealing way to catch some Tv games next season!

Alright mate - I reckon it's why we went out of Yerp last season - we failed to watch either leg of Benfica pissed somewhere together!

I moved across London is why I've not been hanging out in the delights of W5, but I'm sure we can sort summat out...even if it's just another fr*gging Walkabout

Yeah, actually I guess that's more accurate than what I said - but I don't want to count chickens etc. Especially not ones that are merely smoking. This summer I'm only counting actual chickens that are on fire. That's where Rafa is heading: burning poultry (tries to find emoticon of a chicken on fire...fails...)

i would be veeeeeerrry happy with gonzalez, bellamy, alves, kuyt or saviola hopefully also pennant and a Cd auerelio? (never remmember of watching him play but trust rafa on that one)

 

if rafa manages to haul the above targets we would have a team able to compete for the title.

 

main targets : 2 good strikers

1 hopefully 2 RW(Alves the defensive winger, pennant the attacking winger, Garcia in the hole)

 

Others: 1 good Cd (in case Hyppia realises his age)

1CM (didi replacement)

 

 

 

Formation time:

Reina

Finnan Hyppia Carra Riise

 

Alves Gerrard Alonso Gonzalez

 

 

Bellamy Kuyt

 

 

Bench

Carson?

Aurelio

Momo

Garcia/Kewell/Pennant

Crouch

 

 

With that team and if all the signings live to their hype we wont be far from lifting the title.

[Guest YKI]

Crouch, Fowler, Riise/Aurelio, Garcia, Kewell, Momo, Agger and Dudek on the bench. We've got two teams which is incredible. I think I might go and sexwee.
