Fear the worst! Would you want to play for a team whose fans hate the manager, the best players keep getting sold every season and arent challenging for the top 6.

Or sign for someone whose fans idolise the manager, have plenty of History and will pay more money.

No brainer! Hes gone!

You do know this is a Villa site I presume????

Our history is far superior to theirs. I can't argue with the rest, though.

Blimey Leeg, with the best will in the world how do you work that one out?

Sheer, unadulterated bias. Please don't let facts get in the way!

I agree with Legion. We've both won everything, but they've had less England internationals and less seasons in the top flight. And standing up to Hitler and inventing the league trumps it all for me. Also, they are johnnie-come-latelies and the bastard offspring of Everton.

They've won more stuff, but our history is more important and intersting I reckon. But again, that's because I love my club.
But also because it's true. Before the war Liverpool were largely irrelevant.

The Falklands.

WWII, of course. Since the 60s they've made a big noise, attracting thousands of cowardly unimaginative reptilian glory supporters  on the way. They've also made a song all clubs supporters used to sing their own, bless.

Or sign for someone whose fans idolise the manager,
let's see how much they idolise him when they finish outside the top 4.The deluded scousers are fully expecting to challenge for the title.I have a feeling they're going to be in for a rude awakening

They're still in honeymoon mode with Dalgleish.  A rude awakening is exactly what I expect.

How are Liverpool going to fit all these midfield players into one team?
I could see them cashing in on Gerrard this summer. I'm sure abramovich would be stupid enough to spend £25m on him.
