Reds agree Aquilani deal

[Scratch]

What about Dossena?

Jury is still out on that one...didn't have the best of starts to his EPL career, but definitely showed signs of improvement in the latter part of the season.

Di Matteo, Cudicini

Is he the one who started brightly but then got the horrible knee injury?

Di Matteo, Cudicini

Neither of them failed, in my opinion.

[Craig_H]

He puts a left footer in,
A right footer in,
A header in,
A volley in,
And sprays the passes about
Alberto Aquilani's gonna score a goal,
And that's what he's all about,
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh Alberto Aquilani!
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh Alberto Aquilani!
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh Alberto Aquilani!
That's what he's all about!

Isnt it supposed to be lines that end in 'in', then 'out' ?

Cos out rhymes with about.

Al-ber-to Aqui-lani
He came to us from Rome
From sunny Italy
To win the Premier League
And bring it HOME!

Di Matteo, Cudicini

how has Cudicini failed? he was/is one of the best keepers in the league..

[Kronenburg1892]

How about Boney-M and...

Harry, Harry Kewel. Harry, Harry Kewel.

Repeat ad nauseum.

does 11 appearances (at 25) count as "establishing yourself in the senior side?"

Considering he's been competing with Gattuso, Pirlo, De Rossi and Ambrosini for the senior side thats not bad. The national coaches tend to want experience and age in their midfield.

My Roma supporting cousins are gutted he is leaving.

And the Hokey Cokey.........

He puts a left footer in,
A right footer in,
A header in,
A clearance out
And sprays the passes about
Alberto Aquilani's gonna score a goal,
And that's what he's all about,
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh Alberto Aquilani!
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh Alberto Aquilani!
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh Alberto Aquilani!
That's what he's all about!

I don't know what to say.. I just hope Aquilani proves us/me/sceptics wrong.

Good luck lad and welcome to the best football club in the world!

[Roboklopp]

Am a bit worried by his injuries & apparent lack of physicalitly TBH.

[JohnDoe]

I'm worried by his eyes being too close to each other.

I was wondering about this. Given his injury record I wonder if we have some sort of injury related payments in place like rather than a straight £20m upfront we pay say £10m now and the rest based on appearances (not your standard affair but an injury related one) and achievements.

I think perhaps that we would have some security on this front. I like this gamble as I think injury free he might be worth twice what we are paying, just remains to be seen if it gets paid off.
