The likes of Sakho & Allen being flagged as "maybes" is cringey. They've had plenty of time & don't appear to be good enough.

Turtyturd · 02-11-2014 07:02PM

I know he gets a hard time time on here but I would have Enrique as a hit, especially ahead of the likes of 'Bellers'.

Allen is a fine squad player. Not a 15m player but decent.

Plus he has the type of madness in him that I like. For example wrestling his brother in his jocks on his bed and posting the photos online. Great stuff altogether.

You missed 3 Hits after his name for LB/RB/CF......he even gave GK a go.

Hard to know what signings were rodgers and what were the "transfer committees" signings, half our signings seem to be for the future, the signings for now are a mixed bag at best.

It's attention seeking from him.

When Alan rightly ignores him he moves on to someone else.

Well spotted, now I'll move onto you, the non attention seeker who doesn't absolutely batter every tiny little in joke over and over and over again in a very sad attempt at gaining thanks. In fairness to Alan and Lloyd they provide some content in their posts even if their style isn't to my taste, you sir contribute diddly, apart from petty digs at Utd and Arsenal, cheap pops at BR and Stevie G, and pathetic attempts at humour.

Bring Louie Home, The Rodgers, Moses Gags, Aspas Corners gags, Sakho/Cissokho gags etc etc etc TIRED AND TESTED material. Though you'll have a couple of buddies that have your back and thank it, obv as long as you thank their posts.

Sakho has started 19 league games for us. I think he'll be a hit tbh.

As for Skrtel

The guy is an embarressment

Why is it so black and white? Allen is a good player who generally contributes to the team. I don't see him ever being one of our best players but I'm happy to have him in the squad.

As for Sahko, he's done enough to show he's as good as our other CBs (not saying much) and if fit he should be starting for me.

I hope you're right but the embarrassment remains on par with ~€40 million worth of new CB's

Smell of virginity of this post.

(Hoping Turtyturd thanks this)

Mr Alan · 02-11-2014 07:16PM

I have no issues with Allen as a squad player, but that's clearly not what he was bought for. Do people want me to go dig up all the quotes from Rodgers about how huge a player he was going to be for us?

Allen is a grand player. But when judging his transfer it has to be a "miss"

So he's as good as our other CBs who we all agree are not good enough. Therefore he is not good enough.

His transfer is another "miss"

lol. what do you expect him to say to the press "He's okay, not great, but he'll do as a squad player I suppose."

That's pretty much what Rogers said when he brought Lambert in.

Poor so far but points on board suggest 4th not far off us, still can make up for poor start.

I think with a lot of signings it's easy enough to figure out based on how he has treated them.

Balotelli, Assaidi, Alberto, Sahin, Sakho off the top of my head were definitely not.

Lovern, Mignolet, Borini, Allen definitely were.

Some I wouldn't be sure about; Sturridge has conflicting reports, Coutinho doesn't seem like the type of player he would go for but hit the ground running so couldn't be excluded, an Lallana looked like one of his but given his game time so far may not be.

Wow!

Things have taken a new low in the Liverpool thread. This is embarrassing.

Arsenal are in good form at the moment. They'll kick on now imo. United are muck. Southampton are 8 points ahead. City and Chelsea won't be dropping much points. It ain't gonna be easy imo but it's still very early in the season.

People will whinge about Rodgers signings but tbh, I don't think it's the quality of players that's the main issue. It's the movement of the team. They clearly have not clicked and given the drastic changes in the squad over the Summer this isn't all the surprising. The understanding isn't there but hopefully things will start to gel over the next few weeks. If we're still playing like this in December, then it will be time to panic imo.

There's being positive about a new signing & then there is the gushing we saw over Allen.

Are you now saying that Rodgers didn't buy Allen with the hope that he'd be a big player for us as opposed to a squad player?

The revisionism going on in here is mental.

Am I the only one who thinks Joe Allen is a good player?

I think there is a big difference is signing a a 32 year old and saying that vs a 22 year old. I'd expect any manger who signs someone that young to talk him up and about how good he can be, not by saying he'll only ever be average.

He did sign him hoping he'd be a big player, just because that hasn't happen yet doesn't make it a bad signing though.
