Liverpool v Fulham Build Up and Match Thread

[kurtangle01]

what are you trying to say? he's a bull****ting ******?

I think so.

[ARIMAN]

Dont need Bale though (a young understudy LB)

Just need to sign him up, like Masher.

And he is just 17/18 - if he is this good now, (ie deal with the physical nature of the EPL) give him a few years

Not as good as Riise, but still a worth understudy

[Shaggy]

Like he'd ever seen him play - he heard the same reports I did.
We knew he was highly rated, but I doubt very, very much that he'd seen him regularly.

Also, the idea that Insua's ready for the LB first team berth already is pretty fanciful.

Well we all heard all those reports but I thought AF actually watched him play in that U-20 World Cup?

Anyway, he's started very well for us. Very comfortable in possession and seemingly knows how to defend, which goes some way to making up for his lack of pace.

[Rocket]

Bale takes a awesome free kick though fella

[Maestro]

No.
I'm saying that he bases a lot of his opinions on what he reads and hears, rather than what he sees with his own eyes.
This invalidates a lot of his opinions.

The U-20 World Cup? Where Paletta was also a star?

[ARIMAN]

Maybe if we get him as a Left winger, but he loves Giggs took much for my liking

Plus Soton are probably in the play-offs, if they get promoted he may not get sold

Spending 8 million+ on someone who wont be a first team certainity - Im not sure after seeing Insua

[Neil Young]

At least he doesn't base his opinions simply on watching the telly. You've got to be at the ground you know.

So does Rocket.

I can't comment on that.....

[ronan]

were playing pretty well considering the team thats out there
bellamy n fowler upfront is forcing us to play a much quicker and shorter game than normal
some nice moves in 1st half,big improvement on our recent performances in the league.alonso's looking sharper,that brown lad is a snide ****

Didnt think he and Palletta played together in the same U20 WC team. I get the distinct impression that he played more recently, while Palletta was one of the players (with Messi) to lift the cup in 2005

[Red_Al_77]

2nd half underway. No changes

[Red_Al_77]

Momo smashes one close

edit: For him that is

My point is that Paletta is also a world beater if you judge him on his performances in the U-20 World Cup.
