i don´t agree with that ...
i don´t believe they have better players than us
We defiantly have a better team
The wages and London has more appeal for players abroad
but money isn´t everything .. Glen choose us over them .. i can´t see the charm over Chelsea..
Chelsea is controlled like a FM football club
they have won the league more often recently
we have been a force in Europe

And we are more beautiful than them ...

Nonsense!

we dont need a reality check! players like torres chose us over united, chelsea, arsenal etc

don't tell me that's living in the past

You look at the situation with Fernando Torres, he is doing what I was saying in a previous post about mapping out his career like all the best players in the world do Like Zidane, Kaka, Rivaldo e.t.c. Fernando Torres is not soft he learnt his trade at his local club one which he supported all his life and this provided him with a platform to start his career. Torres knew he could never fulfill his dreams playing for a club the size of Athletico who were never goint to win major honours with this in mind he knew he was at a perfect age to move abroad to a bigger club which was going to take him up to his next level, a club which had a glorious past, rich history, better players than Athletico and a club that is a top four club in England and regulary gets to the latter staged of the Champions league, that club was Liverpool and having a Spanish Manager and Spanish players gave us the edge over other clubs interested in signing him. Dont forget Torres had lost his way towards the end of his Athletico days and had failed to live up to his early potential he had when he was 17 or 18 so we were still taking a gamble spending so much money on him. The next stage for Torres happend when Spain won the Euro's it was the first time Torres had won anything ans with this victory it has wetted his appetite to win trophies, now deep down Torres knows he will never do that playing for a club like Liverpool even though he wishes he could. Fernando Torres will give us another two season which will take him up to the age of 26 or 27 where he will be in the peak of his career thats when he will move to a giant of the game like Madrid, United or Barca and fulfill his destiny to be the best striker in the world, he will of looked at Steven Gerrard and the way his career has gone in that he is such an outstanding player but his career is not reflected in medals and wont make the same mistake, This is the way Proffesional Footballers handle there careers its all about playing for the right clubs at the right time of your career and Torres knows this.

slight generalization there m8,that might be the way agents think but unless you have personally spoken to Torres about his future plans then i'll take what your saying with a pinch of salt. Chelsea a bigger club? richer yes,bigger never!

ged is not lfc fan, he sounds so negative...so many negative posts on LFC
yes we havent won titles, but i believe we are in the right direction,

what many fans forget, rafa srted by clearin the mess created by houllier, we are finally seeing what the team is capable..

and i believe gerrad wil retire with PL medals and more champions league medals...

and GED IF YOU ARE A LFC FAN U DISGUST ME

Never said they were bigger I said there money and London means thet are more of an attractive option to ourselves to overseas players.

Talk sense will you, the difference between me and you is that I live in the real world unlike you who talks with his heart instead of his head, I would put my record of attending matches up against yours any day so dont tell me am NO Liverpool fan. I talk with sense and no matter how you want to dress it up we are no longer the Club we used to be, 20 years of bad club running, poor managers and players not fit to wear the famous red shirt have took it's toll on the club, so get your head out of your arse and accept the facts.

dude i for once didnt say we are the club we used to be...

all i said wic u too acknowledged "20 years of bad club running, poor managers"

thts wht rafa is doing, he is clearing the mess, surely he aint god who wil do miracles in 1 year...

and i talk from my head, we are heading to good tinks, its jus some fans are jus so narrow to tink abt tht....

u goin to matches doesnt make u a bigger fan than me......

Rafa in the past five years has built a solid foundation for the future and for that he should get credit. He's done it with limited funds and has now strengthened the first team to be a serious challenger. With one more great signing we can definately win the title in the upcoming season.
