From Hull and now trying to spread the RL word in Liverpool, and failing dismally.

Did anyone hear Martin Tyler mention Sturridge using his "Premier League pace", as though that is all you need.

Well it obviously worked. England's midfield would pick the ball up, they'd look for somebody to come in or drop off to play the ball into, instead, the two wingers just legged it trying to get behind the full back, which would be followed by a predictable ball over the top.

Stuart Pearce is a gash manager, he can't even get his side to counter-attack properly.

They didnt, it was purely fabricated by Harry Redknapp. They made a last minute offer which Blackpool rejected outright - none of this "couldn't find the shareholders" business. Blackpools Club Secretary categorically denied ever being close to accepting an offer.

It bemuses me how some people go on about him. Every time I watch him play, he just looks like a plodder. Agree about Holden, really like him.

Agreed, he's sh!te. I'd rather have Jay Spearing.

Charlie Adam to Liverpool then. I though Young and Jones were supposed to be a few weeks ago "want to play champions league football". Damn, there's the stumbling block.

Seen this on paper talk today, is it likely to happen mate would you think mate?

There's usually something in a Marca story, especially when it involves Madrid.

Why? Canales has always struck me as a 'hole' player, someone who plays off the forward. With Everton having Cahill, he'd be better off staying in la liga and getting consistent minutes in a league that suits his game.

I don't think he'll get minutes if he stays at Madrid.

Yeah, but Blackpool also came out with a load of BS during January about Liverpool, so it wouldn't surprise me if they just persisted with the BS with Spurs.

What BS? Most of the noise we made was about Aston Villa.

New Roma coach Luis Enrique to make Martin Stekelenburg his first signing. Can €10 million be right?!

How much did Spurs have a bid accepted for in January? If we paid £10m for a player who has 12 months left on his deal, plays in a league below us and was only valued at about £7m by us in January, it shows absolute desperation and an inability to find an alternative.

Adam's a decent player, whether we need him after signing Henderson is questionable, especially for £10m, that would be as mad as our other fees spent on British players recently.


Adam is about ten gazillion times more creative than Henderson is. When I've seen JH, he's played right midfield, so I guess you've signed him to plug that gap and Kenny sees Kuyt up front next season vying with Carroll & Suarez.

If I was Liverpool, I'd pay the 10m for Adam, he created so many chances last season for DJ Campbell - he might not have the 'all round' game that folk talk of, but get his left foot on the ball and he'll create opportunities for people. Let Lucas do the tackling for him. If Liverpool had Adam and Gerrard back fit, they'll then have a goal threat from midfield.
