Liverpool Fc @ Anfield - Reds Supporters Gatherings

[ah_gogo]

You never know, it's sometimes the dark horses that can surprise us

In all fairness it's a free transfer, what harm will it do. I think he was a good player for Leverkusen, good CL and international pedigree.

It still amazes me how many people jump on the negative side of any deal that they are unfamiliar with. Rafa makes mistakes but at least see if its a mistake before you start questioning?

Has it ever occurred to you that Rafa could have been tracking him for a while before the investment? Or that our priority is other areas of the squad and not strikers?

Yup i agree to that. One thing that I can think of to justify this signing is that he should take the role of being a backup at Anfield very well, he must know that he is not coming to LFC to be a regular starter, but to improve the defence in training, and to give all he can and add goals whenever he sees the pitch.
I'm thinking that Rafa signed him because this guy is going to have the exact attitude that you look for in a number 4 striker option. There are rumors that God is possibly going to the US so he can still have some dominance in his later years, and that maybe Crouch is going to want out for more playing time? That will also leave space for one super awseome world class forward that the team needs with Bellamy taking on a supporting, spot starting and super-sub role

Last heard, Bellamy kana fined, Riise also kana fined (kinda strange). But seems like Rafa still needs Bellamy on the field against Barca.

Cheers

The details on just what went on are quite murky and I think there's a fair amount of tabloid muckraking going on. That said, something must have happened, which is an unfortunate end to a positive week in Portugal.

Hai.. In a way i kinda feel for Bellamy.. He has built up this reputation that anyone can leak a story about him and it’s almost believable. Hopefully all this media will die down before our big game with Barca

So gracious of you to still call him a fan ... but what's new?? Fairly typical conduct of fair-weather "fans", no??

hahaha... good one, have a cigar.

bellamy is still the bad boy he used to be. already playing for one of the finest in the world but behaves like he's playing for wimbledon.

My guts feeling tells me LFC is going to win tonight.

Now that's an excellent post.

Absolutely, and if the golf club story is true, I will be deeply disappointed in Bellars. But I watched him closely in the last half dozen games and although he complains and yells on the pitch, he always finished it with a toothy grin, ya? Great player and I hope the story's not true. Hope he stays.

Ah well, and when the Americans' global marketing strategy kicks in, what next?

[Dirk Kuyt]

Not so good news coming from anfield.
There is rumours Real Madrid make another offer to Rafa again.
Though the boss has not say anything yet but he is unusually quiet these past couple of days. Hope we win tonite and convince him to stay.

LOL.. Fair weather fans? I don't see myself running to Man U when Liverpool loses. Yr judgement is a personal one, something u probably tell almost everyone who has their own opinion Some may agree, some won't, whatever it is, the objective is only for the welfare of the club.

Voronin isn't great or better than any of our strikers but he's been playing on the flank for Ukraine for much of his career because of his pace, in order to accommodate Shevchenko.

I don't care how many goals he gets for his national team. Milan Baros had a fantastic record for his country but couldn't score in a brothel here or at Aston Villa.

It's just an opinion, no need to get all judgmental about it Labelling me with silly tags won't make the guy a better player.

One all half time against Barca.

Thought we were out of it after Deco had put Barca in front. Our attacking player was quite poor after the first 10 mins although we had some luck with set pieces.

What a howler from the goalie to carry Bellars' header behind the goalline for our equaliser. Aka Reina's mistake against AJ in the Everton game.

Boy, finally we have some luck in an away game. But we gotta improve lots in the second half.

Ya, I liked his attitude on the pitch very much. Very competitive but gentlemenly (so far at least). So far, Bellamy has proven his worth to the team. I also hope that he stays.

Interesting that our two main actors were involved in the two goals in the first half.

Barca's goal was partly Riise's fault while Bellamy scored a great goal with his head.

We are mataching Barca well so far. Let's keep plugging it and we will do fine.

Cheers

[canthaveenuf]

hahahaha ...... Bellamy and Riise combined for Riise to score 2nd Pools goal. Some more with his right foot.

What irony !!!

Way to go REDs !!!

Cheers
