I think Matt is right in this instance. Torres is one of the only players left that looks as though he has some form of loyalty.


Love him!!

Don't want to piss on your chips Anna, but Glen Johnson and his partner said something very similar to me, personally at the beginning of the month.


Looks like he is now going back to Chelsea. Loyalty is sadly a concept that 99.999% of all footballers struggle with immensley, whereas the concept of ?????????????????????????s they all seem to be able to grasp!

I thought Glen Johnson was coming to Liverpool, until I read we were signing Micah Richards.. maybe the papers are correct on both and they'll be fighting for the right back slot..


I'd have thought Glen Johnson going back to Chelsea would be a footballing mistake as all the ingrediants that took him off the tracks in the first place are still going to be at the Bridge..

Liverpool probably cannot afford him. I think they merely started off the bidding process with Man City and Chelsea wading in, however I believe his release clause relates to Champions League and the England manager has ben pressing him to get CL experience ahead of the world cup.


Of course, Chelsea could activate the release agreement, and that basically means he is available to any club, because Pompey would then take the highest bid regardless of CL involvement. Either way, it aint liverpool.

Crouch money not due for another 12 months but is outstanding. Looks like we will be offloading him to Tottenham however (note this is not from the player himsef though so could be wrong). That'll pay up the 'Pool debt.


As soon as we get our takeover complete the better, cos with all these players leaving we could really do with a manager to identify some new ones!

I think ?18.5m would be too much for Glen Johnson - I'm not even sure we'd see much of his attacking ability as he'd soon have to follow the party line of sitting deep to cover Carragher's lack of pace. I'd like to keep Arbeloa as he can do a good job at left back or right back. Hopefully Rafa can raise some money by flogging Dossena back to Italy.

Johnson would be good in those home games like Stoke etc.

We only need a RB a centre back cover and a striker cover in my opinion, so if he thinks 18 mill gets one of those then is OK by me.

    • The SE22 Evri delivery family are lovely, and always say hello wherever we spot them in the area. We gave them a box of chocolates during Covid as they were working their socks off at Christmas
    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
