How many Scousers should be in the squad?

The same place we found the others?

Funny how you were slagging off the thread and now want to debate in it though. I trust this means that it has your support for the next four years? 

You know me.

Wouldn't want to go off topic like you do.

So where did we find the "others"  Mr B?  Do be precise..........

Hurry up and get to your point. Everyone is bored of you constantly trying to bicker.

Ive stated my point .

Answer the question and who are your two friends Mr B or need I guess.

MY POINT IS :  answer your own  question and do stay on topic  p-lease.

You both f'n tiresome. Have less trouble with my 4 & 5 year old niece & nephew when they aren't getting on. Grow up, both of you.

No you haven't - you've just managed to ruin another thread with this tedious bollocks chasing me around looking for an argument - in fact as you admitted to doing a few days ago.

Everyone can see what you're up to. I'm not engaging with you - hopefully the mods will do something about it before you F**k up the entire forum.

Easy to say - but what do you do when someone is constantly following you from thread to thread and repeatedly posting irrelevant things designed to provoke bickering? Completely ruins the thread.

He has ignored previous warnings by the mods but doesn't appear to take heed. Hopefully they are planning to do something about it.

I think it's scots we should be looking for not just scousers. Last time we won a cup we had a scot in the team (who can forget his penalty?). Last time we won the League we had a scot in the team.

Yeah think you're right mate..

Think Scott Parker has another year in him?
Scott Carson can come back, he knows the club too
Scott Dann is a red..

Maybe that famous scot Lionel Messi too.

Running to the Mods again as soon as you cant take it back ?
 

I'm biased because while one half of my family is Scouse, the other half is Scottish and so am I.

For me I think it does take away from things a bit when we don't have any Scousers in the squad, I mean over a season not game to game. But maybe we have been spoiled in terms of Gerrard and Carragher been so good and so successful.

For example, I'm gutted things haven't allowed Rossiter to get more game time to be honest because I think he has it in him to play a part.

You can't quantify a number but in an ideal world I'd like to see a Liverpool squad which has at least a couple of starters from the (wider) Merseyside area and a decent core of British lads (I'm biased towards Scots) but poor value for money and/or technical ability is part of the problem there.

The current squad has a decent core of English players even if it's a little short on Scousers.

The thread is about Scousers in the squad.

Personally think the answer to this question is another question; how many scousers are good enough for the squad?

Obviously there's a home grown quota to fill but you don't need someone from Liverpool to adhere to that. I'd love to see more Liverpudlians breaking through, we've got a big catchment area and a great academy so there's no reason for them not to make it, if they're good enough.

Tiresome . You really are.

For the fourth time answer your own question. FFS

Where do we get them from ? Scousers ?


You asked it ....you answer it yourself  ....or cant you ?   

Just going round in circles here.

On topic.  Your answer is  ..... ?

As I've said before, I know I'd rather see more Scouse lads in the team and squad, and I'm equally sure they're out there.

Unfortunately in a game run by the international media corporations, there's no big news in us picking a local boy, however brilliant he is/will be.  Hence we are constantly linked with exotically-named overseas players, many of whom (I have to confess) I know next to nothing about.
We saw on Wednesday what a strong-hearted local boy can do to a) lift the team and b) lift the crowd.  Sure, Flanno isn't the greatest technically, but I'd pick him all day long over Moreno to play for my life.  The same would have applied to most of the Scouse lads who've been regulars in the last 20 years.

This season more than any other has disproved the myth that hyped-up (CL experienced) overseas players are NEEDED to win the league and other major honours.  The 'World Class' myth has, for me, been largely blown out of the water.  PL football is once again a game about desire, determination, daring and teamwork, as well as talent (let's not pretend British players automatically don't have that) and long may it remain so.

Having said that, we need to find the lads who can match in potential the likes of Messi and Suarez, and treat them right so they get to that level playing for US.  Scouting - that's the secret, and it should begin close to home.
A Scouse spine for the team?  Sounds bang on, if they're good enough!

Where do we get them from ? Scousers ?

I would assume Merseyside

Largely because it was a baited question to carry on your childish little squabble. Get a room, F**k each other senseless and get it out of your system.

Now now Rodders

  

Interesting mate - the general tone of the thread generally seems to be "zero" local players then if there are better alternatives available.

That's quite a change over the years - rmember Ged's "beating Scouse heart" of the team that he aspired to?

Illustrates how times change - imagine if owners had come in then and said that no Scouse (or necessarily even English) players were necessary.

I think we should always aspire to a 'beating Scouse heart' as Ged put it but not at the expense of quality.

Having said that I feel that there probably has been players we could have brought through, even if only as squad options, who were local instead of spending money.

But I also understand why managers gave trusted the transfer market given the pressure to get results.

Not sure. 11? None?

We were so lucky with this guy because he was Scouse, a Captain and a real leader

As many as are good enough to fight their way into the side I guess. Be nice to have more, no doubt. Proportional representation might work in politics, but this flavour of it won't work in football...
