Football The 2012 / 2013 Season Thread

Walcott's third was the best goal I've seen in a long time - 90% of players these days would have gone down looking for a penalty. On a related note, Gareth Bale may have done some spectacular dives, but that doesn't mean he's never actually fouled.

I cant see Arsenal keeping Walcott tbh - he wants more than just money.

He wants guarantees about starting regularly and central mid-field.

...and a bit of silverware.

There was contact but honestly it was weak at best.

[Himse]

[eksdee]

[Himse]

From the reports he has happy with Wengers plans for him to go through the middle now. He has played there more often than from the wing this season. The only stumbling block is meant to be his agents fee, but another story is that Theos agent has told him to wait for January as he can now receive contract offers from foreign clubs. So his agent can go out and get it a load of contract offers and use them to make sure he is getting all he can. Seemingly Theo has no interest in leaving in January.

It seems brendan rogers is sick of watching liverpool lose...

 

[eksdee]

Christ Torres you are fucking woeful.

 

[eksdee]

Super fucking Frankie!

 

[Vladamir]

Huge 3 points, credit where credit's due to Rafa, under RDM we would've been buried I feel.

 

[Gray]

Oh well.

Back to being ill i guess :<.

 

[Sydrik]

This could be anything to Liverpool. QPR are fucking awful.

 

[Embattle]

The only big thing about QPR seems to be the wage bill.

 

[megadave]

SUPER FRANK

 

[megadave]

Sounds like we're signing Ba aswell.

 

[soze]

Newcastle really get fucked on that deal £7m release and £2m of that goes to Ba

 

[Everz]

Not really, I reckon they'll benefit by not having him round. For one, Cisse can go upfront again. Ba is far too selfish.

Glad to see it got across, he was the best manager we've had in my lifetime and deserved the rounds of 'super mick' and applause.

Official LFC ‏@OfficialLFC ILLNESS: Boss Brendan Rodgers will miss today's game at QPR having been diagnosed with gonorrhoea.



Official LFC ‏@OfficialLFC CORRECTION: The previous tweet should have said "diarrhoea". Apologies for any confusion.

Yet you booed him week in week out

Booed the team. Mick had to go as the board had clearly lost faith in him and the players weren't playing for him.

It became his 'fault' because his stubborn personality wouldn't let him walk away, and he didn't have the bottle to drop the players who weren't playing for him anymore (a mistake he has noted to as the reason why he was sacked many times).

We lost 5-1 at home to our biggest rivals, it was never going to be a pretty exit, but he was left high and dry by Morgan and Moxey (who didn't even turn up yesterday).

 

[Lethul]

Was one episode in Chelsea game that had me confused, around 90 minute.
Chelsea attack with 3 vs 1 defender.

The run Torres made before he received the pass made me wonder if he have had a horrible concussion and totally forgot about how to play football

 

[Vladamir]

Apparently Lucas Moura's joining PSG, with his agent set to make a cool 10 million from it

 

[Wazzerphuk]

That deal was set up MONTHS ago Vlad, keep up

 

[megadave]

Thought they already signed him and loaned him back.

 

[Vladamir]

That deal was set up MONTHS ago Vlad, keep up

I thought the agent bit was new information

Hurr durr

 

[megadave]

Apparently Ba's agents want something ridiculous like 7m agent fees on top of the 7m price tag.
