Anfield Banter: Leighton Baines, Andriy Voronin, Anthony Le Tallec, & Macca

By: Brian | 2 Comments

* Wigan has snubbed Everton in their attempt to buy Leighton Baines. Coincidentally, or maybe not, Rafa has revealed a renewed interest in the left back. Baines would be a great pick-up, but I don’t know if there is an ounce of truth or reality to this story. I don’t know if he […]

We still need another defender.

By: Brian | 5 Comments

We received some promising words from Rick Parry today, apparently we’re not done spending. That’s a relief because we still need to strengthen our back line and picking up a player at just about any spot there will do wonders for us. Right now, we only have six quality backs with Hyypia as […]

Liverpool 0, Portsmouth 0: Final Thoughts

By: Brian | 9 Comments

Not much to complain about in this game, except maybe Portsmouth’s play which was overtly physical and boring. They kept nine men behind the ball at almost all times and if it weren’t for the skill of Liverpool’s players, nearly made the game unwatchable. Being a meaningless preseason friendly, I was sort of […]

Liverpool 0, Portsmouth 0: First Half Thoughts

By: Brian | No Comments

If I had to pick one word to sum up the first half, it would be frustrating. The two things that are causing this match to be so distressing is Portsmouth’s excessive physical play and our spacing. If LFC comes from this without injury, I’ll be surprised. Pompey are grabbing, tripping, and […]

Harry is Kewell with me, ‘Hot’ Scott Carson, & Harry the flatterer

By: Brian | No Comments

* King Harry has admitted that he gave up holiday time to join the Reds early in Hong Kong. It was probably a good idea if he wanted to see the pitch much this year anyhow, but I don’t think there’s a happier person on Robbie Fowler’s green earth than me. I really […]

Lucas could play tomorrow

By: Brian | 3 Comments

Our Brazilian wonder kid finally received his Italian passport, he’s in Hong Kong and could possibly play as early as tomorrow, though I’d be surprised if he did. It would be great if he did though, because our boys looked utterly exhausted after Tuesday’s match with South China and we need all the fresh […]

Anfield Banter: Benitez ignores Mourinho, Torres cleared for tomorrow, & Hugs for Sir Alex

By: Brian | No Comments

* Jose Mourinho has already started the verbal fisticuffs, but Rafa, as usual, isn’t having it. He ignored any questions regarding the fabricated war of words and instead decided to focus on the matter at hand, the Barclays Asian Trophy final versus Portsmouth on Friday. Mourinho is so pathetic, doesn’t he have anything better […]
