I suppose let's give him one last chance and see how he goes last half of the season with sturrage if he stays at liverpool though I see him as a third or fourth choice option lambert and borini are not liverpool quality even the second rate 2015 liverpool

It worked with Raheem and Lazar and i hope it will work with Mario too.

Yeah fair point, and whilst I only wanted Mario because we were signing nothing else up front, when we should have been, I do feel he has something to offer if Rodgers can get it out of him. His improved attitude and recent attempts at movement offer some slight encouragement. We shall see.




I think he'd be better in mid field rather than up front. Give him a supply role rather than expecting goals from him.


Seriously!?!? Ignoring his complete lack of work ethic and selfishness, he has played 65 premier league games and managed just ONE assist!!

It's probably all the same if he's not willing to put in a shift. But maybe at the tip of the diamond with two strikers, but who knows.
Anyway the fact that Rodgers has come out and announced that we're keeping him probably is another way of saying we're not looking for a striker in this window, and that imo is a mistake that could see us around 6th come May next.

If we got 6th I would be delighted, a bit of PR leaver the brand a bit more maybe put ticket prices up and we are laughing the name of the game is profit maximisation and we are doing just great I might buy a LFC shirt and put profit maximisation on the back

Yeah I know Darcus, but the guy does have ability, if we could get him to apply it, I wouldn't have had him on our signings list at all, but when we weren't going to sign anyone else to try and fill the gap having sold Suarez, he was maybe worth a punt, but perhaps not, only time and an Rodgers miracle of man management will decide the issue, one way or other, but yes it's a long shot, I agree.

Yeah I can't escape the feeling of being hit by one of those plagues we read about in the Old Testament, and like those, it feels like came out of no where, and there's no way out. Damn that Purslow bollox and all those others involved in bringing this plague upon us, it truly is a disaster of biblical proportions.

The game is now all about money though. No getting away from that. If you want us to run at a loss and aim for 'trophies at any cost', then we'll be out of business altogether.

The problem is, our income does not allow us to financially compete, despite fsg making huge commercial improvements. Richer/more reckless owners won't solve that obstacle due to FFP restrictions.

It has to be viewed through a veil darkly. It can be appreciated more in the perception than in the manifestation, and not everyone has that gift of second sight, required to fully appreciate it. A seventh son of a seventh son would be well placed to describe his hidden talents, I'd suggest, beyond that I cannot enlighten you any further, as my own vision is somewhat impaired by the cursed and relentless onset of advancing years!
