Same here, we have been crying out for someone like this in midfield. Last season we had to many "panic-ers" on the pitch, yes they'd want the ball, but when they had the ball at their feet, they forgot how to move their legs, feet, body, everything.
Joe Allen wants the ball, best of it is, he can actually do something with it when he's got it.
Lot's of assists for him this season with clever little reverse through-balls in behind the defence for Suarez and Borini to eat for dinner.
Just hope we can get Dempsey coming in of the right now. What an attacking team we will have, solid at the back also, doesn't look like Man City are gonna bite on our valuation of Agger.
I heard a RUMOUR that Mancini threatened to walk, because the owners and Brian Marwood ain't giving him the money!
POOR MANCINI! Awwwwwwwwwwww no arsed about manchester city or mancini not one bit .

In the Press Conference he looks like he already blew a fuse before the season has even started. Ha! He said Man City aren't favorites, Man United are! Man City are 2nd, 3rd and maybe even 4th this year. What an absolute spoiled tit he is turning into! I actually quite liked the chap, but now, he's coming across as another Mourinho, "You no give me mo £100million  , I walk!  Chaow!  "

At the moment I'd say Utd are the favourites. They've added to their squad already and will probably get Van Persie as well. Don't forget that city only just beat utd to the title on goal difference AND utd had injuries to key players last year.

I'm going out on a limb and saying that the title will be heading to London this year. I think Chelsea and Arsenal have done easily the best transfer business this summer - provided all their signings adapt. I think Mancini is right in saying that if you're standing still in this league you might as well be going backwards. If they don't sign someone of genuine quality (i.e. not David Pizarro) sharpish they will find it very difficult to repeat their performance of last year. And United, they've done some decent business and they'll always be there or thereabouts but they still rely so heavily on Giggs, Scholes, Ferdinand, and Vidic that they could come in 4th just as easily as they could win the title.

Chelsea were still [oops] poor in the league when Di Matteo was there. Good in the cups, when they parked the bus, but same old sh*t in the league, they wouldn't have qualified for CL, had they not won the thing!
They've spent the money, but there is no guarantee of the rewards, just look at us last season.
Hazard was a great player in France, but will he be a great player from the of in England? Serious doubts IMO
We'll see.......

in a 4-3-3 attacking formation,
Gerrard and Allen will have Enrique and Johnson as fellow midfielders. Gerrard will keep bombing forward and creating the play forward rather than back. that is his forte.
Lucas will shore up and anchor the defense with Skertel and Agger and Reina playing sweeper.
We need more than Suarez to striker fear in a defense. I think we need a player like Gaston Rameirez who is a little unpredictable like Suarez

I'm looking forward to seeing you get warned for the above (providing the mods have the balls to show a bit of consistency).
why on earth would it require balls to have consistency on an internet forum.? what planet are you on? 
Luis Garcia, He drinks sangria
He came from Barca, to bring us Joy
He's five foot seven, he's football heaven
please don't take my Luis away.

"Balls" may have been the wrong word. I should have said 'decency' or 'integrity'. My apologies.
