Carragher has signed an extension

Holy fuck have you read the Carra thread on Rawk?!

They want Carra & Stevie gone.

Hahahahahahahahahaha.

MAD AS A BOX OF FROGS.
 
I think Ross is right - Carragher certainly isn't a money-grabber, but he's certainly looking after his interests here. The timing cannot be a coincidence.

I'm also think Wilko's point is valid. Is he going to be performing to the standard of a £100k a week defender for the next three years? Very, very debatable.

Still, we were paying Aquilani 80k a week to sit on the bench and do fuck all, which does offer some perspective on this.

Here's what one of them says on the matter:

It's got to a point now where you wouldn't get too upset if (in some freak act of irony) he tore something whilst implementing one of his trademark hoofs.
 
It doesn't make it right though, Jules.

As much as it's preferable to to see great players for us honourable with good contracts over seeing wasters being over-paid and offer fuck all, a contract should only reflect what a player will offer us in the future.

It's a ruthless business, and one we've skirted around in recent years to our cost at times. We'll see a change under the new ownership.
 
Fair comment, Squiggs, but a player's worth to the club can exceed his playing ability. Sami was a classic example and IMO Carra's another.

RAWK are fucking hopeless. Why would anyone post there on a regular basis and have to listen to this?

It's astonishing.
 
I know - can you believe I got banned from that place, and yet people are allowed to wish an injury on one of our OWN players, and greatest servants over the last few years.

RAWK is the Fox news of Liverpool forums - it's worth going there every now and then just so that you can see what stance they're taking, check that it's the polar opposite to your own opinion on the matter, and feel validated that you've made the right decision

Yeah, our demise under Benitez was certainly hastened by the departure of Sami. I have little doubt about that.

But Sami left for footballing reasons and not financial ones, so providing these sort of players were still around the first team, you have to wonder if these said players really would refuse a reduced contract offer.

I think the club are perfectly within their rights to do so.
 
I know that they hate Carragher, but WTF has Gerrard done to feel the wrath of the mighty RAWK? What are they saying now?

I fucking hate these muppets.

He's too influential on the pitch & dressing room it seems.

Apparently Slur Alex wouldve fucked him off cos he fucks off any players like that & that's why theyve been so successful.

As per Roy Keane, fucking obviously. The fucking retards.
 
Can't we pack these fucktards off with Hicks and Gilett? Seems we haven't *totally* rid our club of cunts.
 
Carra's relative pros and cons are well known at this point in his career and its pretty well established that his best days are behind him, some would say by a couple of seasons at this point, however anybody who isnt pleased to see him effectively commit to playing his entire career with us is a muppet not worth listening to

If by the time his contract is up in 2013 he is still our first choice central defender then the club would be in serious trouble and Id be interested to know if he ahs had to take a wage cut as he surely cannot expect to be a regular over the term of the contract
 
Carra is past his best but still has ability. That's how you built a top squad. Look at Sami. He'd walk into our first team and he too was deemed past his best.

He is also actively involved in coaching some of the younger players.
 
Happy he got a contract extension, but he should be coming off the bench and playing the smaller teams. The new CB pairing should be AGGER/SKRTEL
 
Can someone do a quick summary of Carra's supposed powerful influence at the club?

Yep, two defenders who cannot head the ball, stay fit, organise a defence, and are inferior to Carragher.

Optimistic? I'm not.
 
Carragher is a liability and the rest of our back four are suspect as well.
I'm glad he got an extension, but seriously we need a better defender.
We're never gonna be title winners with Carragher as our main defender.

He's not good enough any more.

I'd rather have a new set of CB.

Any partnership that has Agger in it is doomed from the start because he's never fucking fit. To be honest, I don't have much faith in any of our CBs.

We never gonna be title winners without about 15 new players.

Why single out Carra?

The thread is about Carra and I personally think our defenders have let us down this season and the last.

Anyone remember Rashid's infamous "We'll never win a thing with players like Carra and Riise in the squad" comment back in the day?

They were Champions League winners 12 months later or something.
