Fucking hell!

Fairly sure that was the name of my dream team on fucking Adidas power soccer 97' when I was 8!

That's cringetastic .

They've renamed their reserves The Elite Squad. No shit. Google it.

I think SR will have to rethink his Ronaldo rant!

That starting 11 is good but not great by any means. Good depth I guess but I'm not scared.

Where's Mamma Mia gone? Shake on our bet, you coward!

I've made the exact same bet with someone. £100 if they finish above us this season.

Only there's a slight difference, he's an Everton fan. When I realised he was serious I tried to up the stakes but his missus wouldnt let him, he would've too, that daft cunt actually believes we'll be fighting relegation.

Ahahahaha, HAHAHA.

Fuck me. That's shocking.

They need someone to staple the definition of 'Elite' to the reserve team door. I betcha Bellers would do it.
 
Hahah Elite Squad is something someone would name their gamer clan when they were 12.

Not speaking from nerd experience, of course.

100 pounds? Think about it, you can't lose.
[/quote]

You're on!

Just to be clear: if Man City finish higher than Liverpool, you owe me £100?

And vice versa, obviously.



How do you want to pay, MM?

Sign here, Mamma Mia...
 
Aaah, so that's where this is!

Yep, that's the bet. Consider this signed.

I've only ever had one forum wager before, and Dunc still owes me that £100. I trust you will not be a squelcher.

As for how I want to pay, I don't. However in the unlikely event that I lose, what's your preference?
I can do PayPal, MoneyBrookers, bank wire transfer or Western Union transfer without too much hassle.

Ha. The cheeky fucker eventually offered me a lifetime insider membership instead.
He didn't even come through with that. You can imagine my dismay at missing all the insider info that Summer.

Your very own purple wheelie bin? Wow.

For all the money they've laid out, there's a distinct lack of 'wow' factor at their squad. Or maybe it's jut me who feels that way

Nope it's not, they don't really have anyone of the calbire of a Rooney, Gerrard, Torrres, Lampard, Drogba etc
 
They have an underwhelming central midfield and central defence for all the money they've spent (although that could still change), however they have a lot of very solid players and a lot of talent in attack. It's not far off from where Chelsea started - I doubt many were too scared about Drogba et al at the time - and if Mancini can bring it together, they'll have a very good side.

I won't squelch (is that a word?). Don't think I'll have to, unfortunately, but I consider this a win-win scenario because, if Liverpool do finish above City, we'll almost certainly be in the CL placings. I'd happily pay £100 for that.

Bank wire transfer would be fine btw.

I wouldn't mind their 'underwhelming' central midfield at Liverpool. They've got three international DMs, we're about to sell our only one.
 
Cool. Squelcher is a word. Now you've gone and made me look it up to make certain and I've learned a few other definitions.

I hope your not a squelcher of any type.

It's a win-win for any Liverpool fan (except me of course). That's why I hoped that the wager was accepted by someone who keeps bleating about how we are guaranteed to fail.

I think, on paper - at the moment - we'll do well to finish in the top 4. City, with the squad they've got already and the likelihood of further signings, ought to be 2nd or 3rd, if not champions.

But I'll wear a Brendan mask if it makes you feel better...
 
[quote author=mark1975 link=topic=40995.msg1136717#msg1136717 date=1279273980]
I'm not overly impressed with their midfield, and I've never been a big fan of Silva either. I do rate Adebayor though, more than everyone else do it seems ???
[/quote]

I love Adebayor as a footballer, he's fucking superb.

He's also the player that's proved me wrong the most. I used to call him 'Donkey' every week in his first season, then Henry departed and Adebayor sprang into life.

Shame he's a cunt.
