It had to be done mate and i'm made up Andy Carroll plays for Liverpool.

We've paid £16m for Henderson a 21 yo midfielder with bags of potential who already has 2 years experience of playing in the prem.It'll turn out to be good business i reckon.

Villa played hard ball with the Stewart Downing deal. Who knows how many assists and goals he could rack up this season.It could be double figures in both for me.
Would that be worth £20m to us? I say yes.

We're 18 times champions of england of course we expect to challenge!!The year i go into the season not expecting us to challenge for the league i'll fill my boots with cement and jump in the Mersey.

18 times champions of england lad.That's why.

What about his Goals,Freekicks and Corners?He reminded me of Stevie 5 years ago at times on saturday.Pushing and pulling people around in midfield,dictating the play and driving forward.Think he's a fantastic player mate.

I've been waiting for you to come back.

If Andy Carroll comes good then great but I still & untill we start playing how I know we can given the squad we've got then the signing of Carroll by Kenny will always piss me off, I'm not gonna change my thoughts on us playing 4-3-3 as I know this is the best formation to play in the moden game with the moden players, look at our squad without Carroll & you'll see for yourself!!!

I totally agree on Jordan Henderson but he should be played in the centre where he'll fulfil his full potential, he's never been a right winger. he'll take the place of Steven Gerrard & Raul Meireles in 4 or 5 years & he'll still only be about 25.

Stewart Downing is a good player & will fit into our team very very well no matter what formation we play.

We may be 18 times champions but when did number 18 come & what have we ever done since then in the Premier League era, we've finished 2nd about twice but even then I didn't feel like we were in a title challenge. We've won the European Cup an English record 5 times but we don't expect to challenge for it every year, thats because we're not in it every year & thats down to our league form.

We share many opinions on here mate but being a Scouser you'll always be a bit more forceful'ish (If thats the right word... Or even a word at all) in your opinion as it's obviously closer to home & an everyday thing for you.

"What about his Goals,Freekicks and Corners?" all these come from his left foot & thats what I meant,

I personally though Martin Kelly would start as right back when Glen Jonhson got injured as he's the better defender, even though John Flanagan did well at the end of last season he's still only 17 or 18 the same reason I couldn't understand Jordan Henderson started instead of Dirk Kuyt with Maxi not even in the squad.
