Pako Rumour heard today

[Barnesy_10]

The old guy I sit next to at the match was telling me today that his Son did the Liverpool half marathon last week. He turned round to see Pako running behind him. He ended up jogging with him for most of the way.... apparently hes still on the payroll to stop him going elsewhere till the end of the season. Hes already arranged to go to Chelsea next season.

 

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

cut his tongue out then

[Ben 23]

Hasn't he already had a job elsewhere though?

[Guest JV]

Hasn't he already had a job elsewhere though?

Yes. Maybe the clause is he can't work in England though?

Treacherous c***. Cost us the league.

[fyds]

He's very good, but he's a fitness coach. Should be fun for him next year then trying to get fat Fw*** fit as he demands Pako should 'Respec' mah Authoritah', while Terry tells him he's a 'Street Dog' before trying to shag his leg.

 

Don't see it myself, but hey...

yeah, and didn't he get sacked after a few games. I guess Liverpool didn't mind him going to a 2nd division team in Spain!

To be a pedant, Chelsea are fitter than us, they get around the pitch faster and for longer periods, Lampard plays a hell of a lot of games

He quit.

Always has a rest when he plays us - at least I can't remember seeing him on the pitch that often. I'd dispute the idea that they were fitter than us. They have some very fit players but then so do we. Who have they got who is fitter than Torres, Gerrard, Mascherano, Kuyt, Arbeloa, Reina (who doesn't wear a cold war soviet tank commanders helmet liner either!), Skrtel, Carra etc? In fact some of us are certainly fitter than some of theirs.

I've never seen any evidence of that.

[Guest Snorky]

I've never seen any evidence of that.

 

Maybe they are talking about something else

[Guest Anders Honoré]

I've never seen any evidence of that.

 

Last time we played them in the CL they certainly seemed to have stronger legs towards the end than we did.

[RP]

Don't see that at all.

[Hassony]

Last time we played them in the CL they certainly seemed to have stronger legs towards the end than we did.

Thats because they rotate more

[Guest Anders Honoré]

Don't see that at all.

 

As I recall it, they were the ones with the willingness to try and win the game in extra-time at Anfield. We looked much more tired out there,

Would that have been because they were losing by any chance?

[Hassony]

We also scored and had the best chance to win it at the end

[Guest Anders Honoré]

No. It went to penalties.

we battered them start to finish. the times they've looked fitter than us are the times they've dominated possession.

[Hassony]

No. It went to penalties.

 

Thats because they were more worried about penalties

 

and as i said we had the best chances to win it during extra time

[Guest Anders Honoré]

Having the best chances to win isn't necessarily a reflection of who looked most capable of running. I thought we looked far more jaded than they did in extra-time.

No we didn't. We were the only ones to look like scoring in extra time.

 

But it doesn't really matter what they were like last season. Rimbeaux point relates to the post Pako era and I don't think we look anywhere near as fit as we did last season to be honest.

What? We battered them and had a good goal ruled offside! I thought they looked lost and devoid of ideas.

won't swap our European Cup record for theirs. they can be as fit as they like as long as they keep losing to us
