QuoteThats a myth. Arsenal have bought nearly every player they have

They buy them young and develop them, suibtle difference between that and spending 16m plus on squad players like Hargreaves, Carrick or Nani. When was the last time Man U actually developed a player, Wes Brown???

ha ha and wat a development he is

He would make the scousers team ;)

after we get rid of riise there will be no more gingers in an LFC jersey!! lol they are a disaster

Fletcher, Pique, O'Shea. And arguably Rooney and Ronaldo, both of whom came to the club before they turned 18. Most of Arsenal's young talent has also been bought when they were around 17/18.

your missing the point we are talking about developing talent. Fletcher and o shea are not in that bracket and pique is unproven. WE are also talking about devolping talent cheaply and rooney and ronaldo dont come in2 that bracket either.

QuoteFletcher, Pique, O'Shea. And arguably Rooney and Ronaldo,

Seriously Fletcher, Pique, O'Shea, they wouldn't even get into the Deby 1st XI. Rooney played premiership football with Everton and Ronaldo had alredy made his 1st team debut for Sporting. Rooney I believe was almost 19 when he signed.

your away of the point i said i didnt want to buy the title like chelsea did. united brought youth ten years ago and won it and fair play to them , they dont seem to develop as much now because they can afford big names. arsenal are doin wat united did and i would like to see liverpool do the same rather than have a quick fix

If the pool continue the way they are going they will not be challenging for the PL in the near future.
Even if they decide to bring talent through the ranks, do you really think they will reap the rewards by challenging for the title next year?

Incidentally, you seem to think that all the pool have to do is add Barry for next season :D :D

By the way, a little quiz question for you Pool fans to keep you occupied now the season is over: Apart from 1966, there have been 5 liverpool players, (past, present and future) to have played in a World Cup Final. Can you name them?

1 played while he was with us
2 joined us after playing (and winning) world cups
2 went on to play in finals after leaving us.



Hamann? Ziege?

No I won't. You said you did not want to buy the league, and my retort suggests that Rafa has not exactly been left with a meagre budget these last few years. I'd say he has spent 100-150 million over the last few seasons.

liverpool only spent 30 million this season and that includes buying torres babel and mascherano. so did they spend 120 in the other 2? I dont think so. do your research

Thought you wanted Kuyt there?

I would have kuyt there but if we could afford a top winger, which i doubt, then kuyt would be a good squad player to have.

If Dirk Kuyt starts more than 20 games in the league for Liverpool next season, LFC will NOT win the league, or come close.
