Bullets dodged

[redhorizon2]

controversial I know, but I am glad we didn't get him, I doubt he would have had the same success as he had with Chelsea

 

[the count]

He's boss. Just not at the moment.

#Bonywasboss

 

[Markeh]

Yeah, offering Henderson AND money for Clint Dempsey looks fucking insane looking back. What the fuck was Rodgers thinking??

He binned Carroll immediately, I'd call it even

 

[Markeh]

And whatever happened to Ricky Van Wolfswinkel

 

[LarryHagman]

Frank (VD) Worthington.

 

[Ryan]

Hayden Mullins
Lee Boywer
Joe Allen...... doh

I didn't suggest we sign Hayden Mullins. I said I thought he'd get an England cap based on his (then) West Ham performances. That was it.

Besides, your recent suggestions include these whoppers:

Joey Barton
Stephen Hunt
Amir Zaki
And re-signing Fernando Torres.

Difficult to crow about a 'bullet dodged' with Ter Stegen, when we have Mignolet and fucking
Hiklarius.

That's like dodging one bullet and jumping into fusillade of M50s, leaving a smoking, bullet-ridden Swiss cheese of a corpse

So "Hiklarius" is a thing then, is it?

 

[cloggypop]

Hiklarius has to be Brendan's shittest ever shit nickname for a LFC player. I bet it's dead funny at lunch* with his News UK mates though.





*It's deffo lunch not dinner at The S*n

 

[Fabio]

Yeah its not a great name.

Hopefully he was just throwing some shit and seeing what sticks

like thus

Kareless
Karianus
Kariuseless

for example

All awful

 

[gene hughes]

My second biggest problem with Karius is when I hear his name I end up humming rivers of Babylon by Boney M.

Aaaaaand relax! Been building up for a while that, quite clearly. Few scoops on a Sunday and it just came out. Feel better?

This brewing Cloogy vs Brendan fued has got rap battle written all over it.

It's not "brewing" at all.

He just explodes all by himself occasionally, then goes back into hiding, with the occasional sniping, shithouse comment. It's cyclical. Like a volcano on covergent tectonic plates.

But less interesting

 

[C/O]

That didn't even rhyme.

I'm more of a Company Flow type rapper.

Ya should have used goalcano there. Cross thread posting.

That's a very juvenile technique to use.

My money is on Cloggy - I am totally unfamiliar with the arguments between the two of you, but he's got the best music taste here, which is reason enough for me.

He probably explodes all by himself as he is a "suss, suss, suss, suss, suss, suss suss, suspect device"

 

[Squiggles]

Providing it's true, when Rodgers tried to swap Downing, Enrique and Henderson in a bid for Dempsey.

The only explanation is that Rodgers was getting paid a tidy sum had he managed to fire that particular bullet. If it happened, he'd probably have got his teeth done much sooner.

 

[JohnnyRocket]

Remember when the papers linked us to a player called Didier Baptiste. Apparently we were close to agreeing 3.5 mil with Monaco for the left back. Only for everyone to realise he didn't even exist

Bullet dodged indeed.

 

[localny]

Y

Yes but not for the chavs which is where the gazzumping happened.

Yeah he was brutal in the Prem League.

 

[localny]

Some of us wanted Klaas-Jan Huntelaar. I always thought the Prem would have been easy for him

 

[manwithnoname]

Gabriel Heinze.

Benitez had a fucking hardon for signing him from Man Utd, and Baconface - for once - did us a favour by not allowing the transfer to happen. much to the dismay of Benitez and the player, and much to the delight of me, because he was well past his best.

Although given how dreadful some of the players Benitez used at LB were, maybe this is a bit unfair.

 

[RolandG]

Granted that his a manager - Mourinho? 😉

 

[manwithnoname]

Mourinho? 😉

The transfers that Hodgson did manage to pull off were bad enough, but some of the other targets were heart-stoppingly dreadful, if true.

Luke Young? Paul Scharner? CARLTON COLE??!

 

[manwithnoname]

Has anyone said Kenwyne Jones? Another Benitez target

 

[localny]

Awful.

I guess we should mention Gareth Barry?

 

[manwithnoname]

Awful.

I wish we'd signed him

Not at the expense of Xabi Alonso, but he's a good player
