Lukaboi Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 LukaBoi Revealed After months of speculation, Former England International and FC Zurich captain, LukaBoi, has been appointed as new manager of Liverpool. The English-man who is part swiss, passing through his Great Great Grandad's Parents, has said he is "privileged" to have the chance to manage a club as big as Liverpool, even though he is a life-long Everton fan. LukaBoi has said he turned down the managers job at many Swiss clubs to manage Liverpool, who were managerless after Rafa Benitez retired from management felt LukaBoi fitted their managers role perfectly. Steven Gerrard and Jamie Carragher have both showed their dissapointment at Benitez's departure, but excited at LukaBoi's arrival. Peter Gulasci, the young loanee goalkeeper has been sent back to MTK Budapest FC, after he had a row with new boss LukaBoi. The Liverpool board have given LukaBoi £29m to spend and say he must spend it wisely. Arrivals And Departures Ins: Matias Fernandez-Villareal-£22M Outs: Anthony Le Tallec-Monaco-£775K First Game Win Darlington 0-4 Liverpool Carragher 4 Torres 14 Nemeth 56 Crouch 88 Will Update Mid-Season, Any Questions?

LSD Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 How do you think Fernandez will fit into the current squad? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukaboi Posted September 26, 2008 Author Share Posted September 26, 2008 I feel he will fit in perfectly, he is a great young player, who I have seen on the tele many times and he has breath-taking skill. He came at a cheap price at £22M in my opinion, as he is a great, skilful, speedy south american who will be a star in years to come. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSD Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 So, the only bit of scouting you've done is on the television? Do you think the fans will want to hear their new manager is using a T.V. set to find new players and not using an extensive scouting system that Liverpool Football Club have in place?

crickie Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 what other players are you plannig on buying for the coming season. Such players as toni kroos has being stated saying he would love to join and looks like one for the future. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukaboi Posted September 26, 2008 Author Share Posted September 26, 2008 To LSD- I have seen him on the Tele, but not just on the Tele, I recently went to watch Copa America, and saw some of his displays for Chile, were he netted a staggering 5 goals for a young winger. He has great skill, and he even left Brazil and Argentina for dust as he helped Chile reach the final. To Crickie- I am aware that Toni Kroos would like to join my squad, but I have recently signed Tomasz Kupisz of Wigan, but I'm looking into some more additions before the start of the season. I have been looking into Jean Makoun of Lille, but I have not got enough money at the moment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lukaboi Posted September 26, 2008 Author Share Posted September 26, 2008 To Crickie- I know Kroos is cheap, but I feel he wouldn't fit into my long term plans(Due to him not being on the original update) To LSD- I have just over the £7M mark, but I have listed Carson and Guthrie, and also Itandje.

I sold Le Tallec to Monaco to £775K and Itandje to Crystal Palace for £2.8M and I am happy with those deals. I am also excited for the end of the season when I will be getting Frazier Campbell, Lorenzo De Silvestri, Xabi Prieto, Matheui Flamini & Ciprian Marica on frees, If I'm still here by then. I have listed Oswaldo Sanchez, Lucas, Danny Guthrie & Tomasz Kupisz, while Harry Kewell and Peter Crouch have both requested transfers. -------------------------------------------------------- Any Questions?

Lukaboi Posted September 27, 2008 Author Share Posted September 27, 2008 Season Review: After a good end to the season, I pushed Everton all the way but still fell behind them to 5th, I kept my Job by beating Man City 3-2 from 2-0 down for the FA Cup and Valencia for the Uefa cup. I am looking forward to the new season, I have bought in some great frees and have signed players like Enyeama, Gyan & Manucharyan who are all now class acts. I am looking forward to the new season and really hope I can pull it off after the £20m capture of Theo Walcott from Arsenal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
