    Crazy how one rich guy's failing marriage appears to be ruining Chelsea's season before it starts. I mean, they need players! Freaking CHELSEA started a guy who had never played a premier league game before, and the club had, what, three more guys like that on the bench? And they have Champs...

    It's amazing how Liverpool continue to concede crappy set-piece goals. The first one was just vintage Liverpool, with no one stepping up to take charge of the ball and an opposing player getting there first. The second set-piece goal was a little flukey ... Wijnaldum just misjudged it in the...

    I have to agree. Klopp and his style require full commitment from the players. If Coutinho's heart isn't at LFC, then we need to let him go. Forcing him to stay will only backfire. Couts probably feels like now is his chance and he can't blow it because he might not get it again. Rumors...

    I took N. Dakota's post more as just exultant gloating in relief that we appear to be keeping Coutinho, without genuine disapproval of Barca's approach. Regardless, I totally agree with Hollywood and OMM that there is no reason to be upset with Barca here. Barca and Real Madrid are the...

    Oh geezus just when I was feeling better about it ... I mean that's what ESPN has been reporting, right? So Cack's guys think it is credible ... Ugh. That would really screw us for this season. It's like losing a winger and a midfielder.

    Liverpool media has been pretty consistent in squashing these reports out of Spain. I won't believe it till the reports start coming from both ends. Right, at best for Liverpool, this is a Suarez situation where we convince him to stay for one more year. And there's nothing wrong with that...

    Ha no doubt funds are not a problem with all that Qatari natural gas cash ... but FFP is a problem right? Don't they have to be able to show that they haven't spent more over a three year period than they made, plus €90M (€30M/year)? I'm no expert on this so feel free to enlighten me. Yeah...
