Summer Transfers so far.

Torres get Liverpool the Premiership. If Morientes couldn't do it, why do you think Torres can.

Back to Juv, I agree. However when the get back into the step of things, they'll be a force again.

No argument there, mate

So you agree, his numbers at Atletico were so/so, why do Pool think he can do better in a league which is IMO a step lower (debatable)??????

Morientes is a slower version of Luca Toni, Torres can score with both head and feet. If he stays fit and has the right support, liverpool could be dangerous.

I hear you. Liverpool can always be dangerous. It's just how dangerous over the length of a season. They seem to have little trouble in the Champions League

Maybe Real are not as stupid as everybody thinks they are; they' re getting cold feet about forking over 18 million euros to Roma for Christian Chivu. This is the player who did that wonderful Zdeno Chara impersonation at Old Trafford.

Who the hell is funding Pool, they paid 26 mill for Torres and 17 Mill for Babel.


Those new American owners are shelling out that much????

 

[Von Wigglestaff]

Tom Hicks (Dallas Stars) and George Gillette (Montreal Canadiens), where did they get that kind of scratch? Isn't Manchester City owned by the deposed Prime Minister of Thailand?

Something is not quite right with the Premiership.

Exactly, Abramovitch has been quiet so far, that makes no sense!!

We want some answers dammit, or we'll have a 9/11 inquiry

Chelski dont really need to buy anyone, which is probably why Malouda has been the only major purchase...not like Man U ran away with like the previous 2 seasons when Chelsea won. I still think Liverpool are a step behind ManU & Chelsea, especially if Tevez ever makes his move to Old Trafford.

And Bianchi didnt play for Catania, he was on Reggina...and Italians tend to stink in the EPL. Off the top of my head, I only recall Zola, Di Canio, and Ravanelli to a degree having any impact. Corraddi was absolute trash for Man City last year.

 

[Von Wigglestaff]

I stand corrupted, it was Reggina. Corradi was a burnout, an empty shell of the player he was when he won the scudetto with Lazio in 2000.

 

[the_big_E]

Corradi is overrated anyhow...and he was not on Lazio when they won in 2000!

They got him from Chievo in 2002.

Fair enough, but IMO Di Canio's goal for WH was the most beautiful goal I have ever and will ever see:

Watch it 1:50 minutes into the clip:

That goal is so beautiful, it beyonds description!

 

[David Beckham 23]

That was a great volley. But not one of the best goals ever. I think Gerrard's goal from two years ago was better. And Rooney had a great valley that same year.

 

[the_big_E]

If you're thinking of Rooney's vs Newcastle, Di Canio one is much more tougher to pull off. Ball is coming in at that angle, and to karate kick top corner like that?

Amazing!

This the Rooney one you're thinking of: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TXou-JOW1Yg

 

[David Beckham 23]

Yea, good point.

Totti's was good to.

But I love this one with Gerrard

So anywho, can we all agree Liverpool has had the best buys so far??????

And only speaking 4 weeks into the transfer season so far????

No!

Hargraves, Nani, Anderson, and now Tevez. Man U!

 

[scouser1]

Liverpool's pickups are very nice but Bayern Munich getting both Luca Toni and Ribery are just unbelievable in one swoop, guess the Haregraves cash came in handy.

 

[Esco!]

Yepper, but we still have 4 weeks left

Excellent point!!

Bayern made some great moves to.
