    No your not dreaming, you're perfectly correct.

    Yeah just saw that, still he was born in Brazil apparently.

    Though he doesn't look Japanese but then again does Clinton Morrison look Irish?? ;)

    Liverpool signed another midfielder in Sahin.
    So Shelveys got Gerrard, Adam, Lucas, Henderson, Allen and now Sahin all fighting for the same positions.

    He didn't look great on thursday night, but tore the championship up when on loan at blackpool last year.

    And rightly so Stebo...he was one hell of a player.
    He'd be way past his best now......I wonder is he still around?

    Don't care if he does, don't rate him never had, don't mean to sound horrible but it's the truth, hopefully we can get a couple hundred thousand

    I actually agree to a certain extent. Think him and Green are both decent players, but back ups at champ level. If one of them go and we bring in a replacement who can challenge for the RM spot I would be very happy. Think Bolasie would have been good, maybe a good loanee from a prem club? 350k ish would be a good deal. Still young.

    He's still young , but he hasn't seemed to progress in a way

    I think he has in a lot of ways, was awful when I first saw him. Don't think he is as good as others do though
  • Pritchard seems to have progressed
    Solly progressed
    Cook is progressing,

    Wagstaff didn't really progress, see the issue?
