Mulliner Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Aquilani is leading serie A assists. Shame he didn't want to stay, but I really don't think there was an option to keep him :/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insipidus Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Well, there possibly was. It was "dont **** off Aquilani a season after he joins". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mulliner Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Possibly I guess. I think it was as much a matter of him not settling outside Italy too, though as I'm not a close personal friend of the guy I'm just reading into what I've seen written about him.

Mulliner Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Annoyed to see Newcastle looking likely to sign Papiss Cisse too. Not that I wanted us to sign him, I'm just jealous of anyone else getting a half decent striker!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very soon after FSG took over in October 2010 they began looking at how Anfield could be redeveloped. It is not an easy option as the ground in a residential area, which would require the purchase of numerous properties as well as complicated planning consent. I swear about1% of the houses around the ground are vacant. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tullem Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Liverpool FC own like 2 roads of houses behind Anfield IIRC. But yes, Liverpool have reverted back to the old 'New Anfield / Stanley Park Stadium' plan which ASL originally submitted in 2000, I think much nicer than the stadium H&G were proposing.

DeafParrot Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 I really hope we move to a new stadium. Its definitely for the best in the long term interests of the club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhino Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Yeah, totally agree. As a Celtic fan as well, the effect having a new stadium can have is very, very clear to me. We were definitely galvanised by it, and came back from being on the brink of administration, poor form in the league for a good 3/4 years and low attendances to being at a 35-year peak within 7 years of completing the stadium. That's not likely to be so extreme with Liverpool, but it can definitely be a big boost to a club's fortunes (especially if we have the foresight to ensure that the capacity is much-increased on what we have now).

bell Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 As long as the maximise the corporate money (but not in the Kop) then I am not bothered. The only downside (as with all modern stadia) is the increased presence of fans in corporate boxes can have an effect on the atmosphere. What was the capacity on this plan. I think 65,000 should probably be the maximum (maybe 70k). Man Utd struggle to sell out the full capacity and they can win stuff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhino Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 They took the sensible step of building a stadium with room for expansion, and then only expanded once they knew they needed too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jongi Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 is that sylvian fella still injured? did he turn us down or did we play hard ball because of his injuriy record? edit - a cursory glance at google suggests he failed a medical though he denies it.

Rafalution Posted January 18, 2012 Author Share Posted January 18, 2012 we turned him down, he is now injured. Happy that we aren't getting Cisse, would much rather we spent twice the amount on some overpriced British prospect who may come good in a few years but has 6months of EPL experience, than an on fire striker who looks damn decent but has only played in those dirty foreign leagues.
