Youth cup final + match thread

[lfc4ever]

anyway lads see you on April 26th for live match coverage right here from Est1892, and I won't charge you 30 quid either

Just to say thanks for the effort.

[lfc4ever]

well i'd disagree with you looking at Putterill and Ryan, it's only one match mate, lets see what happens in the second leg

It can also take a while for some to develop into the role, very few are teen stars, most are 21/22 and even then they are classed as young.

Ian Wright was the classic late developer, David Nugent is a recent example of not spotting the full potential either.

Anyone else spend most of the game laughing at the Mancs singing CONSTANTLY about us? At a kids game!

They really do have an incredibly huge repertoire of songs about us. It must be pushing twenty. I honestly don't know how they haven't all died of embarrassment from it.

Non-stop it was. They even sang their cutesy little number about Gerrard.

Haha...oh yeah, there was one song not about us. It was about their best player...y'know, the Scouser.

Problem is Manure found Beckham,Giggs,Ronaldo and Rooney at young ages,why can`t we do that.

Found it funny but couldn't really make any of them out tbh

I could. I'm like an OAP you see...I need the volume on the telly really loud otherwise I just can't cope.

So yeah...I heard it all. They dipped a bit in the 2nd half, but whenever they did pipe up it was still about us. Naturally.

It's not a problem, it was just pure luck, and what have they uncovered since? That 7 or 8 was the holy grail that everyone dreams about, it hasn't happened before, and I doubt I will live to see it again.

Rooney & Ronnie were both bought for about £40M plus, we didn't have that kind of cash, and our club is chasing that dream with the amount of worldwide youngsters arriving.

Everton found Rooney and Sporting found Ronaldo...

Beckham and Giggs were 1 in a million... Just like Gerrard, Carra and Owen!

Thought a draw would have been a fair result there: two well-matched teams. We had the majority of the first half, they were better organised after the break and had most of the second half. Typical bloody United winning through an own goal and a dodgy penalty. We had a reasonable claim turned down when one of their defenders blocked a shot from very close range in the penalty area.

<conspiracy>Of course Tyler and Marwood reckoned United's penalty was justified and Mark Clattenburg was right turning ours down...</conspiracy>

I thought their lad dived but the lack of any complaints from Spearing and the others must surely mean he caught him.

I also didn't think ours was a pen - it was blasted at him from point-blank range and there was nothing he could do about it.

Thoroughly enjoyable game though, and it was good to see two teams pinging it around so positively.

Putterill looked good for us - Hammill-esque, possibly - along with Barnett, Lindfield and Spearing. Woodward had a bit of a shocker, bless him.

Lindfield has the look of a real goalscorer about him. His movement is excellent and he seems to have a poachers instinct. Without wanting to sound OTT, his style of play reminded me a bit of Fowler.

They really have a compulsive obsession about scousers which is why I loved the song we sang to the tune of "Sloop John B" ("We Won It 5 Times") at Citeh who are almost as bad:

YOUR HERO IS SCOUSE
YOUR HERO IS SCOUSE
YOU TWO-FACED *******S
YOUR HERO IS SCOUSE...

Loads of handy little players on show.

Putteril and Ryan looked very promising for us, they could well go on to forge a career in the Premiership, but I doubt it will be playing for Liverpool.

Aye I mentioned that in the City thread, funny as ****. I joined in with that one most heartily.

We must sing that at the Mancs. I don't know why we haven't before.

I always sing "your hero is a Scouser" to my Manc "mates".

Saw that song posted on YNWA a while ago, the Mancs are ****ing ripe for it

I'm not entirely satisfied with it. I think they're far worse than two-faced. Surely it's more along the lines of 'hypocrites'? Although it's hard to fit anything along those lines in.

How about...

Your hero is Scouse
Your hero is Scouse
You ****in' hypocrites
Your hero is Scouse
