aren't bad shouts? Lol.
The main problem with our club is that we tend to replace average players with.. More average players.
From Riise to Dossena to Insua.. While other top 4 teams had Evra, Cole and Clichy. 3 of the best left backs in the world. The one good fullback that we had in the last 5 years, we sold to Madrid at a loss.
And now Nadir Belhadj sounds good? Good grief.

With their crippling debts, we could pick up Belhadj for a tasty fee.

That would be an ace idea as he is twice as good as Insua.
Talking of skint clubs, I also rate that West Ham lad Valon Behrami
We should buy both

Yeah, both aren't bad shouts.
I've havent seen too much of Behrami, but he's impressed on occasion. Technically he's very good and he knows where the goal is. Apparently United are interested in him though. He also has shit hair.
Belhadj - I'd take him as a winger but not as fullback. He's a bit like Johnson in that way. Decent player, though, who will be within our budget.
Remember this?
Nadir Belhadj scores a wonderfull goal: Porsmouth 2-0 Liverpool

You believe Riise was equal in terms of ability to Dossena, which renders your opinion on any player null and void.
We have to fill 4 positions this summer to remain competitive in the Premier League, and it will have to be done on a tight budget. You better get used to it.

No, what's laughable is his contention that Arbeloa was better than Riise.
Anyway, both are gone and comments about Riise better end before it attracts Neil.
We need better than what we have, question is where do we find them?
