And, of course, any minor knock that keeps the poor bloke out for the odd match will be seized on by the usual hacks and then exaggerated wildly and inaccurately. (Did you hear that one of the Sunday Supplement hacks claimed yesterday that one of Benitez's errors was letting Anelka leave the club? The three other monkeys just nodded sagely.)

whilst the above is clearly inaccurate rafa did have the opportunity to sign anelka and chose not to

Oh Fuck off!! Whens the last time we had 16 million to spend in January!!?? We were never gonna compete with Chelsea for his signature and it was like a case of Johnson coming here in the summer. Glen didnt want to go back to stamford bridge and im sure Anelka after being left go didnt want to come near anfield!! But sure....its all Rafas fault!!
He probably should've pulled 70 million out of his arse and hijacked Kakas deal to madrid too...yeah??

we had the chance to sign him before he joined bolton - make up what you want to suit - did bolton pay 16 million for him? did they buy him in january? we could have bought him for 8 million. instead in that summer we bought who? kuyt, pennant, bellamy, paletta for near enough 25 million.
now u go and fuck off.

And of course as always there is concrete evidence that:
a) We didn't try to get him.
b) He wanted to come to us.
c) He was the player he's proven to be now at Chelsea.
And a whole load of other theoretical scenario's, while we're once again talking, uhm.. theoretically.
If you didn't make your cuntish ramblings out to be some sort of fact that only you know, people might actually take your ramblings seriously. As it is, no one fucking does.
