Let's see who we've signed once the transfer window has shut before getting all angwy and prophetic about the upcoming apocolypse shall we.
[/quote]

As a statement of intent Sheik, its an embarrassing sign that we shop at the bargain basement. Would any of the other members of the big 4 take Scharner. Is there a top 10 side clamouring for his signature? It is an utterly shit piece of business given we're attempting to convince our best players that we're preparing to return to Europe's top table.
[/quote]

Yes, because he's the only player we intend buying isn't he.
[/quote]


Sheik, Hodgson needs a good PR exercise to get the fans and the players on side RIGHT NOW. If you were Torres who has intimated that we need 4 top quality signings to compete would you believe that we were fulfilling that commitment when the manager's first signing is a journeyman pro you've never heard of?


[/quote]

So Torres is going to decide his future based on articles in the rags. I can just picture him thumbing through the Mirror as we speak.

The level of hysterics is reaching a crescendo Doc.

Pretty much.
 
Could anyone have envisaged this scenario 12 months ago?

'The Liverpool manager for season 2010/2011 will be Woy Hodgson. Our first signing will be Paul Scharner'

Look at that sentence

And carry on saying it's all going to be fine

Baaaaaaaaaa
 
wow, usually our managers have waited a while before becoming fucking stupid. i wasn't expecting hodgson to be on it from day one. impressive.

Erm, no. He'll base it on his discussions with Hodgson as he has made clear. So if Hodgson tells him the first part of his masterplan involves Paul Scharner then it just might be the case that Torres is not impressed. Sometimes there are grounds for hysteria. Scharner to Liverpool is one such reason.

Remember Houllier unveiled Barmby, Hyppia, Henchoz, Diomede, Hamman and Westerveld. That wasn't very inspiring but it turned out alright.
I would be lying if I said I wasn't nervous, but there's little point panicing just yet.
[/quote]

Sorry Oncy- I don't see how any of those signings are comparable with a 30 year-old Austrian journeyman with shit hair.
[/quote]Eh? I'm not equating the ACTUAL signing to a specific player. We opened that transfer window signing Titi Camara and Hyppia and it was a massive fucking meh from every Liverpool fan. By the end of it we had signed (along with more uninspiring signing we had the guts of a side that kept us near the top of the league for a decade.
Nevermind I'm clearly on my own here.

Signing young players you've never heard of can be a bit meh, but at least you can be hopeful. Scharner isn't a meh signing. He's a shit signing.

i don't get it. why pay scharner a signing on fee and a wage, before bringing in these other players. why not just keep the fucking money and then get the other players?

[/quote]titi camara wasn't young, neither was Erin meijer who we signed that summer. Both were shit' signings but as part of what turned out to be a good window.
And by the same token that I'm not doing cartwheels that we are signing cole, turan etc I'm not crying about this right now. I'll see where we are first day of the season before turning into a woe is me plank.
 
I did think positive. After seeing the thread title i though no, ok maybe he died and its a condolences thread. Or maybe he failed a drug test, or was arrested or something. I was very positive as i clicked on it.

[/quote]coz our squad is wafer thin and this lad can play about 4 positions? I'm not inspired by the signing but if he's to be cover for injuries etc then fine, he's not THAT bad a player.
 
Paul Scharner is a very good acquisition...

... in a game of fantasy football. Largely because he's a *bit* better than everyone thinks he is and is usually one of the stand-out players in a shit team.

I fear mediocrity beckons.

Wake. The. Fuck. Up.

Ahhhh . . . but you gotta ask yourself Bren:

Is he better than Lucas?

Perhaps certain posters should put a hold on their frothing until there is confirmation that the player is joining.

The poster sharing the info has on occasion provided us with some accurate news and however there have been plenty of misses mixed in with those hits.

Perhaps a nice cup of tea and a few deep breaths would be a good alternative to covering their screens with spittle.

Until the player is unveiled with a Red and White scarf at least.

They only refer to him as Cecil & 'Pissflaps' on a few forums now. Such is the hatred they have for him. Apparently most of it stemming from the fact he shouted back at abusive fans that 'Rafa's gone' 'he's finished'.

He also referred to them as Sons of Strikers, which I have to admit, made me chuckle a bit, despite the obvious insult.
