It is a childish way to debate something by twisting words when you know what the other person meant. The ones known as club legends usually do. My comment was directed at comments like "King Luis" and "Suarez the legend"...I'd disagree stongly with these titles in the context of Liverpool. You can package it up whatever way you like. He demeaned the club by going public. If having a go at Arsenal makes you feel better, that's fine. But think about it...you state you were disappointed that he would choose Arsenal. Surely,in your mind, you must view this as an even more demeaning to your club.... Ad hominem creeping in here again...Stick to the debate. I highlighted "signed" to represent my argument. He never had any intention of seeing it out. Hence, my no loyalty conclusion. All players are replaceable. My argument was that in the cases of players like this, a club is nearly always better actually replacing them. You may have missed my "you very rarely" part. But to say that this is an exact replay of the Ronnie situation is absurd. Ronaldo never showed Man Utd this level of disrespect. You might also look at the Rooney incident to debate this. However, my point that you VERY RARELY heard of this at Man Utd still stands. United came very close to it.

He was the next big thing not so long ago and sort of flopped on his loan spells in Milan and Ajax but might be good for the squad?

Coutinho, Sterling and Henderson should be getting more goals next season, they can only improve. Plus there's more competition for them now.

I think Lallana will be a double - double guy for us depending on the number of games and position, likewise Markovic. Perhaps Can can pop up with a few goals and assists himself, role and number of games depending. He's certainly capable of playing that killer pass and his athleticism will see him arrive in the box late. Gerrard just needs to maintain a steady assist line as far as I am concerned, I think he had 14 assists someone mentioned earlier last season, I'd like 10 next season.

Sea Sharp wrote: » The back 4 got harshly criticised last season IMO. Our style of play puts more pressure on the defence making us concede more. Can will hopefully be able to contribute the same way Henderson does for tracking back, which should take some pressure off the back. Would be good to see Johnson replaced/upgraded, but Sakho / Skrtel are good enough. As it stands, I reckon this could work: Johnson/Flanagan -- Sakho & Skrtel -- Enrique Gerrard/Can -- Henderson/Can Lalanna Sterling -- Sturridge -- Coutinho With Sterling / Lalanna / Coutinho interchangeable. Another striker, then replacement for Johnson.

Again should settle straight away. Can - Very highly rated young German midfielder. (I actually like him at LB) Think they are 3 very good signings TBH.
