I wouldnt complain if Ronaldo,Rooney,Ferdinand,Vidic,Berbatov,Giggs,Evra....and Macheda all broke their leg at the weekend. If it improves our chances of claiming the title I wouldnt mind at all.

Ah now, broken legs is too much. Pulled hamstrings for 6 weeks is about right though

Not Berbatov. We want him playing because he's a liability, the game goes on around him and its like they only have 10 men

Liverpool FC's Charles Itandje in Hillsborough storm

Apr 17 2009 by Tony Barrett, Liverpool Echo

CHARLES ITANDJE’S Liverpool career could be in jeopardy following allegations that he behaved inappropriately at Wednesday’s Hillsborough memorial service.

Television footage of the event appeared to show the out of favour keeper fooling around during the ceremony and senior officials at Liverpool are already looking into the incident with a view to taking disciplinary action against him.

Hundreds of outraged Liverpool supporters have complained about Itandje’s behaviour on internet message boards with most pointing out that his behaviour was totally at odds with the solemn occasion which commemorated the 20th anniversary of the Hillsborough tragedy in which 96 Reds fans lost their lives.

The rest of the Liverpool squad conducted themselves impeccably during the service, as did members of the youth and reserve teams who were also present.

A senior Anfield figure who has viewed the footage from Wednesday’s service admitted to the ECHO that Itandje’s behaviour on Wednesday was “wholly unacceptable” and confirmed that the club is looking into the possibility of taking appropriate action against the 26-year-old.

Rafa Benitez is also said to be disgusted having seen the images himself having been alerted to the issue and has moved swiftly to seek action against the player.

Itandje joined Liverpool on a free transfer in the summer of 2007 and the former Lens man has only featured in seven first team games since then with his last appearance coming in last season’s shock FA Cup exit at the hands of Barnsley.

Though he retains a squad number, Itandje has not been included in Benitez’s first team squad all season and unsuccessful attempts have been made to offload him in the last two transfer windows.

Meanwhile, Liverpool’s players were today returning to training following their midweek European heroics at Stamford Bridge.

The first team squad were given yesterday off but their preparations will now begin in earnest for their latest must win game in the Premier League – next Tuesday’s rearranged fixture against Arsenal.

Steven Gerrard will continue to undergo intensive treatment on his groin injury in a bid to be ready for the visit of the Gunners with the fitness of the Reds skipper being Benitez’s only real worry.
