KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Shopping at ASDA

Lets take a look at the quality of our team. Not the popularity of the names, not the transfer fees, but the real quality.

People have on several occasions compared us to rich man shopping at Asda. So lets take a look.

1. His many of our players are playing at the world cup?
Gerrard
Henderson
Sturridge
Sterling
Lambert
Suarez
Sakho
Mignolet
Reina
Johnson

2. Do poor players play at the world cup?
Rarely

3.average age of our squad
I am not 100% sure, but i believe the average age of our squad is 23 and that we have the youngest average age of all premier league clubs.

4. The proof is in the pudding
Basically, our squad finished 2nd last season and lost the title by 1 point. That would imply we have the 2nd best squad or team in the league at the moment. I know a lot of you think we got lucky but i really believe we have some top top players and we are deserving of that 2nd spot and that with just a wee bit more luck and experience we would have won the league but that there is nothing stopping us from winning in the coming seasons.

So, just upon a quick glance, if that is what you can get at ASDA, i say carry on shopping at Asda because we have got some real quality.

If you want to, you can also add Skrtel, Dagger, Coutinho to that list of players, but they weren't lucky enough to make it to the world cup, although i believe Skrtel and Agger are amongst Europe's top defenders.

I agree with your points and Rodgers has done an unbeleivable job particularly with Suarez, Henderson, Sterling.

What will be interesting (very interesting) is where we go from here on the field. We finished second last year how do we do better ?

As for shopping at Asda the stadia our most important item is second class it has to be developing an old stadia in a tight area. As for the team well we wait and see this summer whether its Asda or Selfridges

How many Stadiums are we building?

None but I have heard we are doing a repair job

Ludicrous statement! If you ever wonder why people dont like your views on FSG, its probably because of things like this. Gary Breen,Matthew Upson,Matt Holland, David Connolly and Kevin Kilbane even entire teams have been far from decent, neer mind world class. According to your logic, BR should try and get a good deal on the Allgerian team and maybe the 2010 North Korean team (or were they shot?)

One example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aYDXkVGpMpc&hd=1



Quite frankly youve made a ludacris statement as your first point, not very smart. In fact I'd like an apology for you annoying me so much.

It does appear to me again this summer going off rumours that we are looking at the bargain bin again. Massive difference between signing the likes of Lambert and Chelsea signing Costa and Fabregas.

I am still waiting for our 25million plus attacking player, this signing should give us an indicator as to what market we are shopping in.

missed out on

costa

lallana (looking unlikely)

Lallana can't go to spurs. It's looking like all out other serious targets aren't going to come to us. Pedro/Sanchez if they ever were. Even shaqiri seems doubtful.

I don't understand why we don't use the echo more the same way Madrid use the marca. Try and instigate a move for khedira/marcelo.

Anyway the ways it's going I think it may be tempting to get lallana at sainsburys.
Everything's overpriced there.

Well now, perhaps I could interest you in a kit kat instead? Yes yes, but use your grey matter buddy, you understood my point very well. When it comes to teams like England, Brazil, The Netherlands, Italy, Spain, Uruguay, Argentina...you very rarely see poor players playing for those teams in the world cup. Do you see any North koreans or Algerians on the list of players I put? Would you class any of those players as poor? Have I complemented FSG at all on this thread? You brought them into the picture, I was commenting on the quality of the players at our disposal.

Now, perhaps after that kit kat you could apologize to me.

Relax and enjoy the game tonight, if you are watching.

P.S. Hope your exam went well.

Also, Mathew Upson was not a bad player at all. Perhaps not world class, but far from a bad player.
