KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Sterling agrees new deal

You actually studying at John Moores uni then chump?

Yes mate Im in my final year now. Moved over to Liverpool three years ago from Northern Ireland and loved every minute of it. I've even got myself an apartment sorted down the docks for when I finish uni. Can't get enough of the city

Brilliant lure
I often have to get surveys filled its its always tough
best of luck

'Tis very nice down on the Albert Dock complex. They've done a fine job over the years.
I come over sometimes to take my daughter for an evening meal treat to save her cooking yet another Pot Noodle in her grubby digs.

Some fascinating questions there but extremely loaded without going into any depth or reasoning

My overall perceptions of foreign players in our game is that they make a huge difference to the quality of club football and that the CL is the highest level of football these days and that International matches are boring unless it's a tournament. Then it can be very entertaining.

Foreign players have tended to do well over here but because our league is huge compared to other countries there is more of a safety net for them.

Look at some of the clubs relegated the last few years from the PL holding onto their foreign contingent of players and paying them far more than they are actually worth.

Would these players earn anywhere near as much in their own country? Probably not. And certainly not at what we call Championship level here.

There is so much money sloshing about that it still comes to pass that a club like Cambridge can now continue to exist on the revenue of two games v Man U for the rest of the year.

Foreign players can come here like the young lad we brought over from Sweden now at Fulham. He will probably have a good 2 or 3 years there before moving down through the divisions and all the time he will be taking the place of a bright up and coming English lad who will be cut off in his prime because somebody higher up the food chain brought loads of foreign players in.

I find this even more hard to take as Gerrard comes to the end of his time here. It leaves Jon Flanagan as the only local lad coming through our club of any note.

It is far too easy for foreign players to make a career here and the state of our game at International level is pitiful. We now have a captain who is so disrespectful to the officials and he is a role model to our youngsters?????

We gave the world this beautiful game and then took it away from ourselves for the love of money.

It is, some lovely restaurants down there. Your daughter at LJMU?

I appreciate the last two comments. I've had to draw these questions up fairly quickly with little help from my dissertation "supervisor", so I knew they weren't going to be perfect or tell the full story. I welcome people being critical as I will be able to explore your views further in literature journals and hopefully improve the overall quality of the dissertation. I will take all views on board. And when handed in on April I will be sure to send anyone my work if interested. As it is a widely debated subject which I am very intrigued to learn more about

Hope BR can learn one or two things from you.
