    He's out again? What's wrong with him now?
    Supposedly his groin again, the club are hoping he will be fit for Arsenal.

    Constantly? I've posted in this thread 4 or 5 times?!?

    To be fair he said consistently, if all 4/5 of your posts are quoted incorrectly, then you my friend are consistent.

    I'm on the record anyway for saying that I think Ochoa will turn out to be a great signing and our number 1 by the end of the season. Being the Malaga number 2 right now is being used unfairly against him to be honest. Carlos Kameni is a solid keeper and one of the best keepers from the African continent in recent years. It's akin to saying that Michel Vorm isn't good enough because he's Spurs backup, but I'd have taken him also. Not saying that Kameni is a world beater or anything, I just think it's harsh to use it at something to put him down. Plenty of keepers join a club only to be 2nd choice initially.

    Anyway overall I think it's going to be a really shrewd move. Many are disagreeing but it sounds like a done deal so let's see what happens. Please bookmark this post to make me look like an idiot in May! :P

    Can you tell us a bit about him? I havent seen much of him but from what i have seen he is an excellent shot stopper. However, mignolet is a pretty good shot stopper, its other areas that let him down. Whats ochoa like with the ball at his feet? More importantly, is he good in the air? Does he command his area and dominate aerially? Hes a small guy if i remember correctly, may not bode well for his aerial presence? Why are you happy were signing him?

    Is Jordan Ibe playing for Derby tonight?

    He got subbed on there about twenty minutes ago but derby had a player sent off around the same time so that was that, was disappointing not see him start.

    Liverpool are making an audacious bid to sign Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech on loan.

    Brendan Rodgers will press through with his plans to bring in a genuine rival for axed number one Simon Mignolet, and Chelsea have not dismissed completely the idea of a loan for Cech.

    They now don't see Liverpool as a rival in this season's title race, and with the Reds out of the Champions League, a move for Cech could help Jose Mourinho's side.

    He would be prevented from playing at Stamford Bridge, but would be available for matches against Manchester City, United and Arsenal if a deal could be agreed.

    Liverpool have dismissed claims they have already lined up a £3m move for Mexico keeper Guillermo Ochoa.

    Ibe did well when he came on. Going to be a very good player for us in the future.

    Signing flavour of the month ted mosby, who didn't have a club before the World Cup. Dayum son, he was right, now down before yer overload.


    I feel bad for ye, but worse of someone takes one for the team and gets carded because of the Christmas holidays.

    The most important question , can he score 30 a season ?

    I mean with city and utd having to come to anfield it would really be in his best interest for liverpool to have a decent keeper.

    Rafa Benitez Expected To Be Sacked At Napoli

    Gazzetta dello Sport claims today that "the probabilities that Benitez will stay are close to zero"
    Rafa Benitez is close to the sack at Napoli, according to reports in Italy this morning.

    Owner Aurelio De Laurentiis went into the team dressing room to criticise the players after Sunday night's 2-0 defeat to Milan.

    So then half the thread will be pining, agitating for a manager who has been fired three times and used as a temp once in the last 5 years.

    At least he wouldn't be as stubborn as Rodgers.

    Well he called it the last time. Henderson as a wrong back is comical.

    Was hoping sakho would play, oh well it will be great when we sell him for feck all and he goes on to have a great career.

    Incredibly worried about tomorrows game, could be embarrassing if our past escapades against lower league teams under rodgers are anything to go by. The difference in form and belief tomorrow will be night and day if that supposed team plays.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,966 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    If that guy is right, Rodgers has undoubtedly lost it.

    Not only is he playing Hendo wingback again, but he's putting Gerrard and Lucas in the middle together?

    I don't know whether I'd laugh or cry.

    A Rodgers and Rafa combo would be my wet dream..... :/

    An ideal world etc etc... :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 40,059 ✭✭✭✭Harry Palmr


    Tactics from the 5th dimension. I'm sure it makes sense in Rodgers head.

    Yes, it would be better if he was doing this for a laugh.

    I'm talking about all season, not just Sunday. So far we've only seen that he has end product when he has one world class striker and one borderline one playing ahead of him. Also, no one expected him to be a battering ram. I do expect him to convert at least one of his 3 glorious chances though.

    pity they fell on his left foot :(
