Sorry mate if i havent bought into the everything is great for a long while now, not going to bury my head in any sand

Stealing this, but as least we're not worried about drawing any more...

It's alright, we're going to buy Cavani/Lavezzi/Hazard/Muniain/Llorente/Martinez/Gotze and walk the league next year.

Carroll will come good too, he's only young.

I was with you till the last bit.
Lets just keep smiling anyway.

Oh well, Cissé and Simpson got me some quality points in the Fantasy PL.

He'd have to be about 12 for me to be optimistic

35 MILLION POUNDS!

Carra will get better next season.

Oh well, Cisse will be here next year. We already have quite a few ex geordies.

Hope you are not getting mixwd up with the Q.P.R. Cisse

The Mancs lost 3-0 at the Sports Direct Arena and we lost 2-0. Therefore more proof we are better than United.

I thought it was excellent how Carroll evaded his manager for his substitution. If we can get him to show that kind of movement in the box then we're onto a winner!

Sponsorship from Warrior Sports shows we're the best club in England AND America and we're progressing quicker than a dodgy curry through a pisshead!

Winning the Carling Cup shows that we clearly have a better squad than City, United, Arsenal, Chelsea and Spurs put together.

Just wait till Adam gets back...

Charlie Adam may be back sooner than many wished hoped.

Put Coates up front next season and we will dominate all the competitions we play in after all we only need a striker to partner Suarez.

Ah well... it could be worse we could have Aguero, Silva or Mata in the team and win F**k all. 

Kevin Doyle may be going cheap when Wolves go down... c'mon Comolli earn your wage. 

As long as Carroll starts every game for us next season we'll win the league.

We will beat Villa and get ahead of the bitters

At least with Downing we finally got a winger , now all we need is ....... a winger.

Could be worse I suppose we could of spent onwards of 350M on player and only have an FA cup to show for it as it looks as though Citeh is sinking and yet another year without a title.

For 110M we have done great in winning the league cup and being in the semi's of the FA.


Edit: Just remember that City came in as a runner-up in a charity shield so that 350m not entirely wasted.

Messi to sign next season and profess his undying love to LFC

Now dats what u call misplaced optimism

Hey at least we haven't lost for a day or two

Seriously though good point

Listened to radio last night and the sports editor for the Times (forget his name) made a good point.

He said that yes the club is underachieving but we shouldn't be surprised by being mid table because the players we invested in have either played there entire career at that level (Downing, Adam, Enrique) or the young players have never developed beyond that yet (Carroll, Henderson) and to expect them all to immediately turn into a top 4 player because they signed for a big club was never going to happen.

It just so happens that none of them have made the step up with maybe Enrique being the exception.

Had never thought of it like that before but still think we should have expected better from them.

Can't argue with that really, can we. But I would have hoped that some of them would have upped their game a bit.

They did at the begining of the season when we frankly played some great football and with someone on the end of the moves who knows...

It is a fair point though that was made, now it's important we add some extra quality to them to push us on next year.
