KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Player knowledge from BR.

Lovren :

" He is exactly what I’ve been looking for since Jamie Carragher left. He is a dominant, No 1 centre-half, who reads the game well, offers good guidance to the back four and the rest of the team – and shows his qualities of range of passing too "


Allen :

"This boy, when you see him play you'd think he was a Spanish player, a real European player - I would have paid many more millions for this kid,"


Borini

" I think the supporters will love him. He's a multi-functional player who can play in a number of positions and someone I believe has got great growth.

You literally just posted the above in another thread

it's not fvcking happy hour on sh1t threads, bro

Does every manager say such things about their new signings? or is this evidence what some concluded many months back, i.e. that BR is a snake oil salesman? I fear the latter.

He's over egged it but they all do s bit. They're not going to say 'I've just bought some right shitte' are they?

If it's just normal manager talk then what was the point of you posting it? I suspect he has more than just over egged it a bit.

I didn't post it. Welshy did. I'm just telling you what I think it is which is more managerial bull that they all spout. No manager will slate any new signing of theirs will they?

"You'll love this player if I played him in the right position of a striker but I want him to play as a goalkeeper to improve his all round game"

WTF is 'HAPPY' anymore?

Ooops!... sorry... I think your identities must've merged into one in my mind when I posted.

Agree, no manager will slate a new signing. I'm just trying to establish whether managers go as fas as BR seems to. Rememeber the Welsh Xavi thing which G loves to remind us of?

And then going on from that, the next question is whether it is intentional on BRs part (i.e. he's a snake oil merchant) or whether he is simply innocently deluded/a very poor judge of players.

What about knowledge about himself? He did say give him 3 years before judging him...
