^ You appear unaware of the rivalry or that the last transfer between the two clubs was 1964! Some things transcend normal business practices.....and a direct move from LFC to Man U and vice versa is one.

Anyway...here is our defence in training

was trying to think of the last player to be transferred between the 2 and couldn't, here's why

Mario isn't the first, or the 2nd for that matter (Sakho) but I don't remember Philippe getting stick for this!

yeah exactly. balotelli might be a big bloody disappointment at the moment but the shirt-swapping thing is getting blown out of all proportion and is being used to distract from the real issues. such as us having had only one clean sheet in the last eighteen matches.

Second half was encouraging, consdeing the QPR match you have to take the positives

One of those being the Bulgarians scored a late winner against Basel

If we could sell Balotelli in January id take it

same. he's such a disappointment and his attitude stinks.

I don't believe Rodgers actually wanted him. They didn't get in early enough on a quality striker and this had to have been a late "buy anyone with a name" deal. The Remy deal falling through and Borini not shifting would have contributed. Rodgers said it was a gamble.

Welbeck at the same price would have been a better gamble.

Brendan Rodgers says Mario Balotelli shirt-swap controversy has been dealt with

He's still a handjob

Team v Hull ...Mingolet Manquillo Lovren Skrtel Moreno Lallana Gerrard Hendo Couthino Sterling Borini........allegedly!

As Aguero says; just a big kid really.....Doubt if it will change

S'ok lads,we don't need a defensive coach....yeah, anything you say Bren'

Team v Hull ...Mingolet Manquillo Lovren Skrtel Moreno Lallana Gerrard Hendo Couthino Sterling Borini........allegedly!

beginning to feel a bit sorry for lambert.

^ He is his own worst enemy for sure.....but for me it's a little bit like worrying about the shed whilst your house is burning down behind you

Lovren/Skirts/Jonno/Mignolet must be made up that we signed him......otherwise they would be copping a load more flak!

First trophy City won for 35 yrs. FA Cup. Who was man of the match?...................... Mario Balotelli

First Premiership title in 40 plus years. Who provided the pass for the famous Aguerooooooooooooo goal.............. Mario Balotelli.

The guy is a fruit cake. But he has unbelievable talent and the press just love to hate him.

Amazing today in the Daily Mail, there are 2 articles. One about Balotelli relating a story to Aguero, the other about Suarez saying he 'bites on impulse'. Which has the bigger heading? Yep Mario!!

He swapped shirts at half time..... not the done thing. Yet countless other players have done it, including Coutinho, yet nothing gets said.

I think if BR can get through to him and Mancini was able to do it, despite the 'fights', Balotelli DID respect Mancini and played some decent football, then Liverpool have a gem.

I am a Mario fan, as you can tell. Maybe he is the wrong fit for Liverpool. But the guy has undoubted talent, if you can bring it out.

Hope you are wrong. Mario to score at least 2 goals 12/1.

And I reckon Stevie G, being the captain he is, will let Mario take the pen if awarded

This is the first i have heard of the defensive coach debacle. Simple fact---we need a defensive coach; it is completely obvious

^ Not according to Brendan Balotelli now rumoured to start today.

"There is no chance of us bringing in a defensive coach," he told journalists. "We have conceded a large number of soft goals, there's no argument about that, but I think it is just a lack of coaching time that is hurting us."

Surely bringing in a defensive coach would allow more time for said coach to coach the defenders ,then Brendan can sit in his office having his next portrait commissioned

^ Not according to Brendan Balotelli now rumoured to start today.

Think you are right. Mario now down to 5/1 for 2 goals or more.

He is due for a big game. Come on Mario!!

^That'll will probably happen now as i've just took him out of my fantasy team

I'll take any type of win today thank you very much.

Oggies

Beach balls

Off the refs arse

Even a Balotelli goal.

Mignolet, Manquillo, Moreno, Lovren, Skrtel, Gerrard, Allen, Can, Lallana, Sterling, Balotelli.

Apologies lads....

#bullshitter #bad guesser (although he did get the RM line up correct)

Fair enough the team I got was wrong and in future I won't be passing on the info ....only to the decent lads who know I just pass stuff on

I love Balotelli.

I love Balotelli.

why is it always not him?

0-0. Last year looks a long way away.

Look at El Classico front sixes and think......<deleted>, may as well just give up!

4 down, 7 letters? A precious stone consisting of a clear and colourless crystal form of carbon......Any ideas Stevie?

At least we kept a clean sheet.

Coutinho is magic at times...some of the stuff he pulls off !!

Never was going to score today and why do we even bother taking corners, we really are crap at them.

crap again that. clueless. got good players but they're not being pieced together well. we're in a rut.

Haha, boss init.
