Do you think that Real Madrid look like they’ve been juicing their players? Look at the size of the cunts, they’re massive. Now think how many times they get tested a year. That says to me that they’re doing everything they can to stretch the regulations because on the face of it, something is...

I could write exactly the same article about City and it would have the same legal or literate weight - the square root of fuck all. There is nothing in that article that has any form of tangible reference. Lines like ‘According to a source close to the club’ could come out of any given day or...

Ah right, that must make it true then. Well in, Rumpole, case closed. Do you know anything about football drug testing and how it works? What do you think they find most often?

If you can show me primary evidence source material to back that claim, fair enough. But please don’t tell me that you’re taking about this ham fisted, unsourced pile of shite http://backpagefootball.com/why-liverpool-wont-win-the-premier-league-this-season/126313/

Not quite, old bean, just a fairly distinctive name. Obviously there’s someone else on here with that name, fair enough.

Or like another team geographically close to us, we had three splendid years then suffered a big drop off in levels. That’s just the nature of top level football. But on the subject of supplements etc, every single elite club in the world uses them to as far as the law lets them. The margins are...

I’m not doubting that Sancho was hasty to scarper but could the club have given him more opportunities to do well? Great point about Foden, in total agreement, but they could have done the same with him and saved themselves all manner of cash? Of course there’ll be other factors we cant possibly...

I’m aware of all those players. To use Sancho as an example, should he still be there? Should he have had more of an opportunity at first team level? And I know plenty have had dribs and drabs of the firsts but not for anything major on a regular basis. Of course the squad talent levels are...

Have a good evening, mate, I enjoyed our discussion even if it wasn’t always plain sailing!

I didn’t take anybody from City. You’re conflating my supposed views with LFC recruitment policy. I have no idea why we took him, perhaps we thought we could make something of him. Obviously that hasn’t panned out. Now your second sentence I can get behind. If I’m honest here, I expected one of...

Uncomfortable truths? Okay mate, if you say so. Enjoy your evening.

And so he should - he’s a different class of footballer. Nobody’s disputing that.

If I were him, I’d be targeting Thiago and Henderson. Of course he may not but he’s got so much ability on and off the ball that the sky’s the limit for the lad. Him and Foden will be English midfield mainstays for many a while.

If you go back one page, I address and agree with every point you’ve made in the second paragraph.

Were you saying that about Curtis Jones? And Williams has been in since he was 18. It’s not a dick waving contest but I bet he’s played more first team games than a lot of your young uns have. And Curtis will be in our first eleven as a regular next year.

Not should he. He’s a very talented young kid who’s been fast tracked quicker than he should have. I personally don’t think he’ll make it with us but he’ll have a good career.

I’ve played at a half decent level although only kids coaching. The only reason I asked was because anyone who’s played football knows you can only have square pegs in round holes for so long.

That’s subjective to say the least. Each to their own.

This is my point - whilst the kids have to get into one of the most expensively assembled squads in the game which is a major burden, why haven’t the club drawn more on them? Before the City Bingo firm muscle in, I couldn’t give two fucks how much money you have or haven’t spent and it’s not my...

That must be why he’s played kids throughout his tenure. Some of them have league & CL medals too. Doesn’t sound like a trust issue there.
