Just heard rangers to sign chevaton from man utd in january till end of may on loan . rangers to call back andy webster in december from loan at dundee utd as they need cover for bougherra who will be at africa nations cup rangers have sounded out a £5million pound investment from wwe (yes the wrestling) for advertisement during the home games for 3 years . that cash will go towards new deals for walter+backroom, kris boyd, nacho, kevin thomson, broadfoot. rangers will try and sign players for free in jan on pre contracts ( i would like them to go for rosicky of arsenal sure hes a bit old but still a very good player ) but wages could prove stumbling block i can see rangers buying 1 or 2 players most likely defenders with davie weir (hopefuly) retiring and bougherra (players says this his last year at club)leaving in the summer after world cup when his price multiplies . rangers may also sign alan hutton back from spurs with alan mcgregor going the opposite way .

Is it just me or is Petr Cech looking more and more like a donkey? THis could be Man U title again as every other team seems to be imploding around them!! Chelsea couldnt defend a corner against a pub team and goodness only knows what happening at Anfield. What a farce. The most two man team i have ever seen!! What was the point in Aquilani also. poor business. Sell your best midfielder and sign someone who doesn't seem as if he is ever going ot be fit! Unfortunatley united are the only club who are allowed and/or can afford to sig in Jan if necessary. Can see them clinching another one at this rate. rumours: Zola out defour and Silva to Man u. Nani out LFC need to sign but who? they can't aafford anyone Man City oh who knows probably somebody aoutrageously over–valued!! Stuey

Darren Barr to Cardiff City eh? Not saying it won't happen, but is he good enough for the Bluebirds? That said, my Granny could do better than Hudson and she's been dead 40 years, so would gladly have Barr instead of Hudson. But, have heard that Gabbidon is heading back to Cardiff City in January and he plays same positions as Barr so looks like it'll be big Danny G who fills in when Hudson goes! Goughy – often imitated never bettered :)

I was told by a solicitor in my local pub today that liverpool can/should sue the Premier League and the referees association because their Ref Mike Jones is not qualified to referee if he doesn't know the rules of the game.




Football Rumours
Rafa's time at Anfield is up. Word in the City (London) is that Gillett and Hicks have had enough and will accept a £300m bid from a consortium involving Philippe Stern by December 2009. Stern, 69, is the CEO of Patek Philipe and is a billionaire – exactly who Hicks and Gillett need. The consortium of foreign businessmen want Rafa out and 'The Special One' in....welcome back Mr. Mourinho?

Heard from a very reliable source fernando told rafa he was fit to play but rafa said he was on bench leading to a major argument between the two. My source told me that this would lead to the departure of one or the other at christmas.




Football Rumours
Leeds may accept 3.5mil for striker Jermaine Beckford in January from Newcastle (although I have heard that Ashley has cut transfer funding) despite him only having half a year remaining on his current deal. Unlike the Delph profits, this money should be committed to finding a replacement, and the two names I'm hearing cropping up are Gillingham's Simeon Jackson at 1.5mil and Southend's Lee Barnard at about the same. Pricey, but both quality players, who I would love to see in a white shirt. Rather them than Beckford anyway, who is taking his reputation for granted now, with some sloppy, non–committal performances, namely against Charlton, and it's time he moved on. Newcastle as good a move as any, but will they stump up? Malcolm Shaffer

Leeds to sign either sam vokes on loan or dj campbell from leicster with a view to a possible 1 million transfer and in january leeds will sign cris talyor from oldham for money plus alan sheehan

To the guy who said United to buy 3 young Under 20 Brazilian players –– i have heard this one too...i can confirm that United have scouted Alex Teixerra, Douglas Costa and Renan and United scouts are believed to have been impressed...so expect bids for them... Another player that will be subject of number of bids in the summer is Adiyah of Ghana who has won both the golden ball and the bootexpect bids from Juventus, Lyon, Bayern Munich, Arsenal and Manchester United for the next Drogba(or even better).. widowmaker

Football Rumours
LFC investment latest! George Gillett is in Saudi Arabia looking at the training facilities built by the Sheik. Once again Liverpool is gossiping about DIC hijacking the bid and buying the club from under the Saudi's nose. I believe that F6 will have full control of us by the end of the season. Scouse Pride

Football Rumours
To Davey from Bootle. Lad, do you not get how amusing it is to hear you, a Liverpool supporter, chuck the 'history' and 'jealousy' cards out as soon as you're backed into a corner? History is precisely that, history. It doesn't matter if you've won the league 100 times and have won every single European Cup up until now. The fact is, you're a sh*te team with a sh*te manager. You're not even part of the so–called Big 4 anymore. So please explain what people to be jealous about? When is the penny going to drop with some of you guys? Benitez is a conman, a liar and ill–equipped to lead the self–proclaimed largest club in the land. If you and others are foolish to buy into his bullsh*te, you will continue to slide. At the moment, you're clinging on. Minus Gerrard (he's knocking on now) and Torres, you're mid–table. For the amount of cash Benitez has squandered, you should be conducting a Newcastle–style witch hunt, and hounding the sap out of Anfield and straight down to the Championship, where he belongs. You've been conned, lad. COYB!!




Football Rumours
With just 9 games gone, one contributor is looking at the games the top teams have to play and using that as a reason (sorry, it's an excuse) to back Rafa – loyal, but ultimately stupid. If we now have a BIG 7, including Spurs, Villa and Tottenham, then Liverpool's record to date is the worst: Played Spurs away – LOST Played Villa home – LOST Played Chelsea away – LOST (0 from 9 pts) Chelsea so far Tottenham home – WON Liverpool home – WON Villa away – LOST (6 from 9 pts) Utd's record so far: Arsenal home – WON (lucky) Tottenham away – WON Man City home – WON (9 from 9 pts) Arsenal so far: Man City away – LOST Man Utd away – LOST (0 from 6 pts) Man City so far: Arsenal home – WON Man Utd away – LOST (3 from 6 pts) Liverpool, Chelsea and Man Utd have all played 3 of the other top 6 but Liverpool's record is by far the worst. Let's face it, this LFC squad is the weakest since Rafa joined. Whether it's Rafa's or the owners' fault is difficult to apportion. Nevertheless, they have lost 4 games including 3 Big 7 games. 8th is not a false or distorted position, it's about right for the performances we've seen this season. RAFA MUST STAY.




Football Rumours
I believe you, its typical of him was a always too stubborn for his own good, [lasted a few months at pamplona] its the kudos of having a cl winner on his c.v. that's got him making these decisions, most if not all european managers are the same cl first championship second..i could'nt understand it when xabi went to madrid that the money was spent on johnson/aquilani..when sneider and robben could have been part of the deal..torres in between them 2 not a bad forward line, plus v d vaart. and mascherano could have been swapped for toure and money left for the likes of.cattermole, front 6 of toure, gerrard, cattermole, robben, torres, sneider, and only costing 2 disgruntled players..alonso

IN RAFA WE TRUST. RAFA MUST STAY. RAFA AT LIVERPOOL FOR LIVE. LETS JUST LET GILLETTE AND HICKS GET ON WITH THE GREAT JOB THEY ARE DOING. RAINFISHTROMBONE(Loving the pantomime)





I have been a daily reader of this site for roughly 7 months now. I religiously check it 3–4 times a day whilst at work and also once a day on weekends. But unfortunately it has turned in to a 3 man band driffle site with the usual suspects such as COYB, RAINFISHTROMBONE & Irish Rover. The 3 stooges are ruining this site awhich in turn has put me of it quite a lot. The same old rubbish every day in this tit for tat childish manure. Please post more of other readers stuff and stop posting every little pointless statements these three amigos say. Or is it maybe because of these 3 numptys that this site has no option but to post there stuff as they are driving others away from the site. Peoples opinions on this site are welcomed greatly, if they post this that is, they might protect the 3 stooges but we'll see. Scott





77, 78, 81, 84, 2005. I rest my case... Davey, Bootle.





Right some truth about a few teams!– Man U – Looking a tad weaker than season, The winker is a big loss, however, still showing everyone how to win when playing bad....(all season). luck will run out!, but will get more than their share than most teams..as always....Highest position top, lowest second! Chelsea – 2 consecutive away defeats with a win against a below average Liverpool team may have alarm bells ringing but still looking strong. loosing players in Jan to African Nations may cost them a few points. Highest position top, lowest third. Liverpool – Well a lot to be said of these, simply gone backwards, even a non football fan could tell you they needed a striker in the summer. They didn't add to the squad, only replaced 3 main players with 3 average, well johnson not bad, the greek a carthorse and the italian, well he's a crock! Too many poor squad players, made a big mistake letting Hyypia go, still their best centre half they've had since Hansen. Highest position third, lowest sixth. Arsenal – Still inconsistent, however still the best footballing team in the league, Vermaalen a great addition, have to say once again letting big name gobby players go has not affected them at all. 2 defeats both in Manchester, one was on the cards at city, at Old Trafford they were very unlucky. I can see Arsenal going very close. Highest position top, lowest fourth. Man City – Hmm not sure about these, a good squad, but i think Hughes will struggle to keep them all happy especially the brazilain moaner! Highest position third, lowest sixth. Spurs – started on fire, had a blip now doing ok.





Rumour has it that a few clubs are looking to buy some history. Reports have emerged that certain clubs are eager to 'purchase' an extention to their small trophy cabinets. Reports also suggest that all clubs have approached Liverpool FC requesting a 'trophy–sharing' option and possible loans of all silverware. A spokesman for Liverpool states, "why the f**k would we want to do that lad? We realise that certain clubs envy our success but they're all arrrr's!! We appreciate that certain teams may be bitter about our success but we're not prepared to let any go, well, maybe an odd European cup maybe but just on loan as the others will look out of place. Oh, by the way, you can tell them to do one about that ground–share too!!!". Davey, Bootle.





After Liverpool's poor performance last weekend, Benitez has finally convinced the Yanks to dip into their pockets and purchase a new stiker in the new year. The choice is an interesting one. Apparently Benitez was impressed by the performance of Beach Ball after he completely bamboozled Reina in front of goal. Sunderland are reluctant to sell their prized striker, which has left Beach Ball feeling a tad deflated. Never the less it will be difficult to stop the player from leaving who is said to be on a roll. Ferguson was also said to be interested, but believes the player's inflated ego would compete with his own.





Mr editor, , if you are correct about torres/gerrard being rested against us on saturday, then rafa mus'nt have seen what happened when saf played a weakened team in the 2–2 draw..the premiership this season is not the private boys club that the big 4 have enjoyed for years, they are all slightly weaker than last year for various reasons, players leaving, lack of funds, managerial ineptitude.and others are stronger, city's money, spurs/villa stronger squads.there's no easy 3 points.stoke, blackburn, bolton can upset teams geting draws in awkward games..p.s. steve bruce has fined BEACHY a weeks wages he was seen in chinawhites with jodie marsh celebrating on sunday night..alonso {editor's note – trust me alonso his decision was slated before the game by those that knew the truth .... it was a very expected result on saturday!}





Reference my grumpy and intolerant 'adults' post: Just spotted 'Kevin' posting here...."Will people lay off benitez! yes hes has made at times poor transfers but how can you sign top quality players when you are not given the funds??"

THEN HOW DID HE MANAGE TO SPEND £249 MILLION SINCE HE JOINED?

"he didn't want to sign keane and wanted barry instead! he wanted to keep crouchy. we havent got anyone that can come off the bench and make a diffrece like giggs, nani, owen for man u or joe cole, kalou, malouda for chelsea!"

THEN WHY DID HE SIGN KEANE, LET CROUCHY GO, MISS OUT ON BARRY AND SCREW UP WITH ALONSO AND NOT HAVE HOME GROWN OR FREE PLAYERS ABLE TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE?

"if benitez was allowed to sign the players he wanted we wouldn't be in this mess!"

I'M TALKING TO YOUR TEACHERS TOMORROW, WTF ARE THEY DOING? DID THEY TELL YOU IT WAS THE TOOTH FAIRY OR SANTA THAT MAKES TRANSFER DECISIONS AT LFC?

I rest my case. MikeG





Why is it that questions about age keep appearing here... "how old are you?" followed by something mildly abusive. It's like a lazy parent says to adolescent kids when the so called grown up can't be arsed to argue, explain or justify a point, and expects to receive deferential respect. I know, 'cos I've done it myself! That's when a slap comes in handy. Here it's a written from of verbal abuse. Impatience can be a virtue though, especially when there's no hope that 'Kevin' has more than one brain cell. Balanced debate be f*****D, let's just get the little f*****S, especially the ones that keep refusing to go to their bedroom and disagree with everything we tell them. So anyone disagreeing with the following statement go to your bedroom NOW! Spurs will finish higher than Liverpool in this years EPL because Spurs have a better in depth squad and because Redknapp is a better manager than Benitez. Don't ask me why, I'm 153 and know everything! MikeG





""Heard from a very reliable source fernando told rafa he was fit to play but rafa said he was on bench leading to a major argument between the two. My source told me that this would lead to the departure of one or the other at christmas."" – no source, but common sense tells me you're a Man–U supporting tosser – LIVERPRES





"2 man team. enough said RAINFISHTROMBONE" dear mr rainfishtrombone ngiak agrees with you that liverpool relies a lot on "those 2" but please give credit where its due. sunderland played out of their skins are a real force to be reckoned with this season. (as people on this site have alluded to earlier) and watch out for wigan and villa as well. it will be a tough year for ALL the big 4 and at least 2 of them may be knocked off their perch. ngiak has a niggling fear that a wounded pool will always do well against man u.... anyone knows if the deadly duo are playing against man u next wkend gan {editor's note – I know as a fact that both were fit to face Sunderland but Rafa chose to save them for Europe ..... understandable in Gerrard's case as he deserved to be dropped on his performances so far this season!}





""Oh dear, are all the Liverpool fans a bit quiet tonight? I wonder why? What could have happened? Hahaha. COYB!!"" – and how did EFC go? Drew with Wolves at home? Hahaha. FOYB!! – LIVERPRES





Rafa to be sacked?Come on guys 5 months back they where beggin him to stay.It is too early to judge him. . .plus we lost to good teams, MAN UTD will still have to face CHELSEA, ASTON VILLA AND LIVERPOOL(Possible 3 loses)Chelsea to face–Arsenal, Manchester City and united(possible 3 loses)Arsenal to face–Liverpool, Chelsea, Aston villa, Tottenham, Stoke city(possible 4 loses and a draw).What i am trying to say is that its too early to judge him. . .Chelsea will be a flop with the African Cup of Nations coming up anything can happen.Liverpool to play Man utd, City and Arsenal(tough).Gerrard will be back in the middle to patner Mascherano seeing Aquilani partnering h Torres up front





Lol at all the Manu fans coming on with the RB getting sacked rumours lol wishful thinking me thinks!! If and it is a big IF F6 do invest they will not be as bothered as the UAE big money spenders about spending more....they will want to invest and invest in something that will bring value....not just buy for the sake of buying because they spent more than their pal next door! The stadium is key for the future and they know the return in value will be huge...so yes investment will come but not like Man cite etc!





Hallelujah for the deluded! Matthew Upson off to Man City for £18m and as a gesture of goodwill, the Blues will throw in Micah Richards as well... Have you been smoking banana leaves at Upton Park again? Face facts boys – you're skint, you're in the bottom three and even if you do find a sugar Daddy before the year is out, you'll be so deep in the mire that no amount of cash will buy your way out! Chamakh? You've got no chance! Steven Taylor from Newcastle? Hardly, I doubt he'll fancy a second season in the Championship, Carlos Vela? You really think Arsenal would sell a player with his potential for £5m? Jog on!





Liverpool, in an increasingly desperate attempt to revive their flagging season, have signed the beachball whose skilfull deflection was their downfall yesterday. The beachball, who was on loan from the Spanish side Real Costa del Sol, will partner Torres up front as Liverpool seek to gain ground on the main teams above them. Benitez, a liverpool fc waiter, said at a hastily arranged press conference this morning 'we need someone of the beachball's quality up front. He is an all round player and his instincts infront of goal is something are lacking right now.' Liverpool paid £30 million for the beachball, though many suggest that this is inflated. LOL you just couldnt dream it this good hey ? Blue4eva





LOL Another defeat in the non champions league for the sh*te and it really is season over by november !! Well almost, you still have your favourite trophy to give your all in when everything else goes " arse over tit " which it normally effing does. I heard that the sh*te are looking at moving to the liverpool empire as the venue usually plays a comedy sketch once, maybe twice a week....LOL Minus your bar–room brawler and the gay icon, your nothing more than a top 10 team. LOL Did you see fat rafa's belly dance at brucie ? hahahaha brucie must of forgotten to tip the fat waiter after his halftime snack ! Your club really is SH*TE blue4eva





As a Liverpool fan I have to say that we are awful! This season we have gone backwards. I watched all of the pre season games and not one performance inspired me to say this will be our year! I may get some stick from fellow red fans here but i am going to be honest, I posted on here a few weeks ago saying that I used to get the coach from Flintshire for buttons and pay 4 quid to stand on the kop, only for it to be souness era when we was sh*te! Anyway, here we go, lets face it saturday summed it up, we are nothing without Gerrard and Torres. Yes last year we won games without them but at least we had Alonso who could make things happen, in my opinion Alonso is a bigger loss than Mascherano would be. Clearly he wanted to go in the summer so he should have!!! Yes Alonso wanted go too and he did, doesn't mean we should have stopped a player who wants out go! we could have got at least 25million for Mascherano and gone out and got Cattermole for a lot cheaper!! Then got a back up striker. No top team loses 3 on the bounce without even scoring!! Look at united they have been awful this season, yet they are nicking points here and there, you may they have had luck, but that evens out at the end of the season, they'll get some bad luck as the season goes on, but





ABOUT LFC: Wake up and smell the coffee! If it was okay at Anfield none of this stuff about Benitez would be appearing. You'd all be crowing about your team and not speculating about when Benitez will leave and how much it would cost. FFS, can't you see that an argument about how much it would cost is tantamount to an acceptance that it needs to be done but the yanks can't afford it! And do you really think there's a snowball in hell's chance that either H or G would be trying to raise cash and at the same time tell an investor there needs to be a change of manager because performance is falling, and with it future income and status?

SVEN, it's not pleasant when things go tits up ( I know, I'm a Spurs fan) and don't underestimate the influence of Steven Gerrard. When your skipper says "we need to get confidence and belief back" what do you (and other regulars here) think he's saying? Erm, could it be that he thinks that confidence and self belief are lacking? and that it's also a direct challenge to Benitez's management. Of course it is and the sooner you start trusting Gerrard and back his instinct for what it means to be Liverpool, the better you'll sleep at night. MikeG
