Diamond, Liverpool are going to win something mate, it’s just a matter of time. Probably the league this season, but they will win something this year if not next year. They are providing the manager with the required funds to challenge. The likes of Billy and Sandy ( love him to bits) can delude themselves all they like about Liverpool, but fact is they are miles ahead of us. They have totally eclipsed us. I honestly don’t feel we have what it takes to win trophies and until good solid investment is made, we will continue this path we find ourselves on until it’s to late and we end up losing the majority of this team. So close, yet so far.
By the way, regarding our midfield what has happened to Oakley-Boothe?
Poch played him a lot in the pre season friendlies and yet Skipp seems to be the one getting in.
I don't see any youth games so genuine question.

Oh.... Got no midfield and NOW Levy sells The Beast for buttons when we might have got 20+ in the summer.... all very strange
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You think if we could’ve got £20m+ in the summer we wouldn’t sell?
No one wanted him then especially as the China window closed while he was at the World Cup
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I thought there was interest from Italy... Roma/ Inter I think
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Only paper talk and those clubs wouldn’t be spending £20m+ on him anyway.
£11m is a great price
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I bet Levy looks at it as a great price..... I'm not sure Poch would agree when picking a team for Thurs night.....

Got injured and then dropped back in to the youth teams.
Looked pretty average so far this season.

Don, I'm still fairly hopeful we can get over the line in the Chelsea game. I mean our defence is still strong and we only need to draw with them. Higuain is decent, but not one of the very top strikers in the world at this moment.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Agreed. I don't particularly rate Higuain personally, he's pretty slow, had issues with his weight in the past. Not a hold-up or link player, not especially strong... good finisher though. Bit of a throwback Inzaghi-style poacher who knows where the back of the net is but doesn't offer a huge amount else.
That said, he clearly likes playing for Sarri, considering how good he was under him at Napoli. The script is all written for him to be the difference in the 2nd leg, no matter whether I rate him or not

they have hardly eclipsed us... we are still in all the cups....
Only my opinion but I think Chelsea will get top four if they sign Higuain. They have a top squad just lacking a decent striker.
It will be interesting to see if they finish above us if they make signings in January and we do not.
Don, take away the dozen or so points that Pool have been gifted by referees so far this season, and you have their true level. They have not eclipsed Spurs, they have spent a lot of money and improved at the back, but they are still being dragged along by the referees and the media.
Not for me Bill. Pool are miles ahead of us this season
Mate.

Nah they have managed to keep key players fit all season. They are a good side but they have had a much easier schedule and capitalised on it.

Don they aint miles ahead of Spurs mate, hey have been dumped out of both domestic cups at their first attempt, and cannot win away from home in the CL to save their lives. I still think they will have a potless season. The Press carry them along.
We will see Sandy. One things for certain mate and I think you can now agree, Spurs definitely ain’t winning the league
