I didn't say he's a striker did I mate. Was just making the point that 2 moments in a 4 year stay at the club ain't good enough, I wouldn't even put him in the same class as babbel, he made a huge impact when we won the treble, aurellio hasn't simple as. Yes he's a good passer of the ball whn he's fit and he can defend but haven't seen it enough he's a waste of money, and now a waste I'd a salary which could of gone towards a better left back who can play week in week out, he's had his time now it's time for him to move on

As for aqualani you can't compare him to aurellio, for one we didn't buy him for 20 mil it was a down payment of 5 million, some in installments and a lot on appearences based. 2. He's been here one season aurellio been with us since 2006. Don't you think you should give aqualani the same amount of time you've given aurellio?

He had to earn this two year contract though, the new medical staff gave him a sterner medical than Joe Cole and passed with flying colours. Looks like we have a fully fit Fabio back.

Sweet as sweet can be.

LFC1984RHll, As wanted mentioned that he isnt a striker. Yes those were 2 great moments in a liverpool shirt but there has been alot of good moments aswell when he played. He has asssisted many goals, good crosser, good passer, good shooter. Also leftback arent made to score goals. Can you tell me how many goals has Evra got at united? He is arguably the best LB in the world nowadays isnt he? What has he contributed that surpasses Aurelio? To me its all defending and thats what it matters and you dont need to judge a LB on goals.

Glad he is back, i rate Aurelio, pity he cant get his injuries sorted

how many chances is a full back supposed to get haha. bottom line is we missed him last season and for all the supporters who give emiliano insua critiscm (including myself) proves that. just like to make the point that babbel actually has scored 3 goals aswell as aurelio in his 4 years too and also made 40 less appearances, dont know why goals matters here though either way u look at it both have performed well for the club. only point i was trying to make was that he'd scored in some big games and also one of the best set piece takers in the team too.

as for the treble season, in all honestly nobody really cares about the league cup until you reach the final same applies for the uefa/europa cup too really as fans we would rather not be associated with it, think people are bothered about our league position than that trophy. it was a fantastic season for us though regardless just thought id make that point.

id say aurelio was on about £30k a week, thats 1.5m a season which works out at £6m for a total of 4 seasons. if we had of payed that money for another left back he'd have been on the same amount of money and probably had a £6m fee on top of that so its not as bad as it sounds. plus insua was probably on a much smaller contract given he was still a youngster. same as what we're being quoted for a left back now and thats without a salary.

as for aquilani the point i was trying to make was that by the time he comes to the end of his contract id expect the club needs to have seen some sort of return on the transfer fee/salary paid for him. can you please tell me where £5m transfer fee came from? reports from AS Roma at the time were £17m plus bonus fees. doesnt matter if some of that fee was in installments its still £17m whatever way you wanna look at it.



anyway mate at the end of the day you'll always have your own opinion and i'll always have mine, i understand what you're saying and i agree with it to some extent but also disagree... if that makes any sense lol

Snake eye if you read my posts I didn't bring up the points about him scoring against united and I'm not daft, I no what's required of a left back as I've played there at a decent level when I was younger I was just stating the fact that are the the only highlights you can judge a player on that has only made 117 appearences for the club of which have only been 73 starts? If he'd have made more appearences I'd have no doubt he'd have many more good moments, but we got rid of a proper good servant in riise and kept him in the team, do you not think that's is a bit ilogical

i suppose in hindsight it is but thats rafa benitez for ya. at the time it would have raised an extra 4/5m in transfer funds because aurelio was a bosman so i can see some sense in it. to be fair riise was quite poor in his last season but overall he was a great player for the club and i also think we are a much stronger side when aurelio plays. not being funny here either but i think riise actually scored around 10 goals a season for us haha his left foot was quality.

Aurelio has 14 assists in them 117 appearences. No hard feelings

Risse was great for us. I think he had greater moments than Aurelio but what i am trying to say is, a LB doesnt really need recognisable moments to be a great servant of a club.

Aurelio is back at the club on a two year deal
