Michael Owen has hung up his boots.
In the press they are saying he was not as loved as Fowler, because he was not a local boy. I think the Kop loved Owen I really do, they just hated it when he went for the money.
Fantastic player, amazing in his early days. Injuries and apathy killed his career.
Also...... watching presspass a few weeks back, Steve Nicol talking about marking Owen, good story.... Owen was a 16yo playing for the 'pool reserves I think, carved up Nicol so bad he retired after the game but then saw Owen doing it to all comers over the next year, came back and played another season. High quality so early!
Hard to know what to think about Suarez huh? Liverpool seem certain he will stay, he sways between saying he will stay and move. I reckon he will go, Juventus or bayern will have a whole heap of money no doubt. I hope we get some good money for him and try and fill with a similar quality striker. Will be missed though
Yeah cheers bro, I too like to shake the top rope furiously before games.
[/quote]Do you remember when he fought the honkeytonk man in a mystery fight? think it was for belt, intercontinental maybe? I think the fight took 25 seconds or something
I remember Stevie saying he thought he would go if we didn't get top 4 this season. Guess we'll just have to wait and see. If he does go, like you said it's all about getting a quality replacement.
Ha no don't think I saw that one, youtube time! You should definitely youtube his appearance on Arsenio Hall though. Quality!
Bought for 20 odd, I'd expect probably half that again so 30 and possibly more depending on competition. Rumours were floating when it was announced that Pep was Germany bound that he was a fan. If he goes, I selfishly hope he leaves the league.
Suarez needs to be careful here. Sure , I get that he wants CL footie and that will probably determine if/when he goes but currently he is head and shoulders the best player in his team; May not be true at another club. Is that important to him? Dunno.
When he was acting like a prat a season or 2 ago , he did receive tremendous suport from the club ( Kenny in particular) and fans. One would hope that that has some bearing on his decision. Of course , we all know that players have tremendous loyalty , don't we ? FWIW , I thnk he'll stay one more season , if CL not happening then off he goes. Mind you , if someone pitches up with an unbelievable offer ( 40-50M) than FSG may say thanks very much.

Michael owen should never have left Liverpool. As soon as he moved his career deteriorated, Same for Fowler. There's a few players in this world whom are fantastic for their club but crap elsewhere - Carroll being a good example too. Stevie G, would he really have done the goods at Chelski a few years back? I don't think so. I know Owen is a Toffee, but at 'Pool, he excelled.

Agree. And even earlier , does anyone seriously think that Ian Rush to Juve was a success?
Always felt a bit sorry for Owen after he left. Could understand his reasons, but how many quality players end up at Real and find themselves in the same situation, watching not playing. Meanwhile the mighty Pool win the Champions League, brilliant.

Found it!! But it doesn't give it justice!

Nice result this morning...anyone see the defensive diving header from Gerrard? Legend.
Heard on Radiosport that Liverpool have confirmed a pre season friendly with Melbourne Victory in Melbourne. I think they said July 24. Anyway on here going to go?

Oh , really impressed with Coutinho so far. Great vision and passing ability.
Hendo might make a reasonable player - who knew??
Nice one Jazz. Once in a lifetime opportunity it would seem. I told the missus and she said I can go!! But I wear the pants and all that!!
So freaking stoked. Although likely to see the reserves during pre-season huh? maybe catch our new summer signings Tom Ince, some new Centre backs and dreaming of errikson?

Can Andy Carroll play against us tonight? From media reports it sounds like he could. Seems a bit strange to me

Go on don't leave us hanging! What was on the roof of the car?
