    Good lord, good deed by Gala......Eboue's story of not having a place to live.....his ex wife took everything.

    Not saying he has no fault in all of this but he needed help the urgent way. Giving him a coaching gig.

    Virgil Van Dijk to LFC for 80 Million.

    BTW Man City is so deep, they are playing Gündogan, Bernardo Silva, Danilo while resting guys like David Silva and Sane.

    Pep's Barca philosophy is paying dividends.

    Kompany went off injured after 10 minutes (Big shock) and Pep replaced him with Jesus!

    lfc with an impressive 5-0 against a lowly swansea. still exciting.

    and then turn around and broke the bank on van dijk. can't say i'm thrilled.
    there was a time when kompany brought you the goods consistently in the fpl. then he turned into mergady.

    Knew he was good but that terrific of a defender?

    was he good? i thought he was just decent-mediocre. nothing worth that money obviously.

    i wonder if lfc will ever get a Sami Hyypiä type of player ever again. i guess lfc's system just doesn't cater to defense since that era ended.

    Honestly, he needs to just go. He's now becoming a locker room cancer and you can now see the disdain on the face of Lacazette and Giroud. I'm hoping Lemar is available for transfer in two weeks but even if he isn't, selling Alexis at this point is addition by subtraction. Lacazette and Giroud can get more time plus Walcott could finally get on the field and the ball will move better especially if Ozil is retained. And in the end none of it may matter cause even if they can get their hands on Lemar or Riyad Mahrez or even Drax, Wenger will probably contonue to use stupid formations rendering these guys best talents useless

    He had some fantastic games during 2016 campaign or was it earlier but had major injuries, you could say he was prone to it.

    He always was a 5.8 to 5.9 million defender in my fantasy league!

    I went with Ryan Bertrand, Maya Yoshida, Stephens and Cedric Soares. Now they got W. Hoedt.

    Mo Salah is a really good player. I'll be curious to see what he can do for Egypt this summer. In Group A, they have a very good shot of getting through but it will be on his back.

    so lfc paid 5x the cost for mediocre van dijk because they know they're getting paid for traitorous swine coutinho in january.

    hope cou fails miserably. sell that bish firmino while he still has some worth. can't trust brazilians... or any south american players. they'll bail as soon as they have the slightest success, or piss and whine like a girl if they don't get their way. alexis is another example.

    They live life to the fullest - meaning probably less loyalty.
