Van der Vaart is a prime example of the nonsense Sir Alex was speaking not long ago about there being no value in the transfer market. Ozil and Khedira as well.

Andy Gray says

 

I watched the whole match and he was only thing that spoilt it.

Agreed.

 

Spurs were fantastic to watch, and very good value for their win. Bale is a great player, but the media spunk off over him is ridiculous. van der Vaart again showed his class, him and Hernandez area easily the signings of the summer. Why Ferguson didn't sign him or sneijder was beyond me at the time and still leaves me utterly perplexed, anyone who'd seen them play for Ajax would tell you they were worth a punt.

[bilbobaggins]

VDV is not really a good example as he wasn't ws available at the price Spurs got him. He only became available at that price when his move to Germany, for at least double the value, broke down at the last minute. Real were convinced it would go through and committed in other areas, thus he was punted him to the only place he could go with a couple of hours left in the window. I wasn't convinced about Sneijder until he joined Inter either.

 

That said, even at double the price VDV would've been better value than the likes of Milner. That says more about the English players market and Man City targets though.

 

I'm not sure that what Ferguson says is wrong because in the past he very often picked the best of the English/UK market. Out of the players he'd want and people who would sign for Man U I don't think there is too much value value.

Rangers beat St Mirren 3-1 today and Hearts are currently beating Hibs 1-0. So we will not be going bottom this weekend.

[Madbadteacher]

Even though we fucking well should be!

[Stewart]

St Mirren have less points than us though.

Arsenal lost 1-0 at home to the Barcodes

 

Oooft! Arsenal pretty much chucked the league already.

 

Great result for the zebras though, cunts.

[tlg1903]

I'm really pleased at that arsenal score, one of the people who has been having a go most is a big goober so it's nice to have something to hit back with

[Stewart]

2-0 Hearts.

 

Good news.

[BobbyBiscuit]

2mins into Liverpool-London Huns, Gerrard with another elbow to someone's head, free kick awarded, not even booked, not even mentioned by the commentators. Unbelievable.

Did Gray not even do his annoying chuckle and call him Stevie G?

[TENEMENTFUNSTER]

nazio 0 roma 2

 

awesome

 

Was the Tottiracist playing?

He saved that for later when he wasn't assaulting someone. I can only presume Zhirkov must not like Phil Collins...

 

Apparently Carragher has said Stevie G is Liverpool's greatest ever player.

 

He wasn't even kidding apparently.

 

Honestly.

 

Was the Tottiracist playing?

 

Think he was suspended.

Fucking great result.

Almost half way to safety already

Thought that'd please you!  In the CL places now!

 

Liverpool 1-0 up on the Londonhuns.

[BobbyBiscuit]

2-0, absolute peach from Torres.

Tyrant will be enjoying it, looks as though the place is rocking.

Whilst clearly this is absolute fucking nonsense, the guy was incredible against Napoli the other night.

[BobbyBiscuit]

He's a cracking player, don't get me wrong but Liverpool have had some wonderful players of which he is one but he is nowhere near the best.  I can only assume Carragher has never heard of Kenny Dalglish.

[Madbadteacher]

Remember he'll be too young to know about the 70s, or 80s (or probably 90s?)

[BobbyBiscuit]

He's a year older than me MBT and I remember and know fine well what a player Dalglish was. He should think of it this way, take Gerrard out of Liverpool's history and what are you left with? Take Dalglish out of it and what are you left with?  Of course, Dalglish had better players around him but he was the best player in a great team - something Gerrard has never been. It would be interesting to see how Gerrard would have fitted into that side... would he even have got a game ahead of Souness?

[TENEMENTFUNSTER]

Remember he's too fucking thick to know anything

 

Better.
