Benitez .... prick

Arsenal linked with Alonso in today's gossip round-up. Potentially a very good signing for them. I do, though, hope that it wouldn't give Benitez the financial muscle to prise Barry from Villa.

Barry has played in the EUFA cup now though, meaning he's cup-tied and that should reduce his value by an awful lot.

Aye, cuptied until after the group stages - we could buy him in January and play him in the CL thereafter.

Yes, that's correct. We can't play him in potentially 7 games before christmas, or at all in Europe this season were we to get knocked out by Liege. That means he's not worth as much to us as he was before.

Pretty simple.

Yeah pretty much, you don't pay big money for a player who can't play in your biggest, most important games.

There were a few people who said that's why we didn't use Anelka in the cups.

Pretty simple.

If you keep playing like you did yesterday his value might increase drastically out of desperate need. Pretty dire performance yesterday, and it didn't seem to be because Sunderland were very good.

Yep, we were pretty shit. Barry wouldn't have been the solution to the problem(s), though.

With the Villa .v. Red Shite (Mk II) game due this weekend the Daily Mirror (I know, I know) did a 32 page diatribe showing Benitez to be the prick that he is, well & truly.

The waiter is still claiming innocence in all this, saying he's bemused at all the fuss ... and that he'll only say even the word "hello" to O'Neill if he really has to, as a reply, otherwise he'll ignore him.

Knowing O'Neill I doubt Benitez will need to bother his sorry ass.

This is all on top of Capello showing real irritation at him re Gerrad's injury & op (which was how all this lot started).

Thank God for that, this thread was slipping way to far down the list.

Just been listening to the commentary on the Beeb. Alan Green sounds unhappy. Which is nice.

And the reply from the Bolton fan further up was,

Bolton saved £100m and play like Liverpool.

Well, today pretty much confirmed my thoughts that Benitez is blagging his wage.

Utterly clueless, I'd have him over Megson on todays showing.

What was that midfield about? Why wasn't Benayoun and/or Babel on that field?

Babel never came off the bench yet he's the quickest and most exciting player that Liverpool have.

Amazing, Benitez was tactically retarded today.

You'd have him over Megson doing/at what?

I got myself completely mixed up if I'm honest there Bruce.

What I meant to say is that I WOULDN'T have him over Megson as a manager on todays showing.

No worries. There are folk on here that are rather easilly confused. Not me of course, I'm just trying to clarify things for those that are. Honest, Guvnor, and whatnot!
