To Speaks1312 YNWA who uttered this tosh:
"In reponse to:
Well how about you learn how to use sentences and grammar?
Am I alone in finding this new breed of Liverpool supporter as incredibly stupid? What has been happening in our schools? Has it all been "self–directed" learning, and the students chose to watch cartoons? Or is it simply a matter of breeding
Dear, dear, dear. I'm typing in a sentence for you ok??(I don't really care how I type here, I save my professional acumen for 9–5)...I imagine your still playing Footy Manager and getting pocket money yea?? Really a shame that you have to get personal as a vvvv poor atempt at a pathetic 'comeback'..LMFAO
As for new breed of supporter?? I've supported Liverpool for 20+ yrs! Go to games regularly and stay till the very end )
To quote you above "Am I alone in finding this new breed of Liverpool supporter as incredibly stupid" Yes, you are alone in your thoughts, but one day your parents 'might' let you out of your room!! Stop masturbting in your room, get a girlfriend and get a JOB!!
Speaks1312 YNWA ( Yes, I leave my name cos I'm a proud LFC supporter and you're a joke)"
Will you just grow up! You claim to be a twenty seven year old man and yet you come away with sad, idiotic comments like this. It annoys me that you are clearly a Liverpool supporter. Just leave the guy alone, he's just stating his opinion even if it also stupid and childish.
Anyway, some LFC rumours:
Goran Pandev will join Liverpool at the end of his contract as his agent has contacted the club and Liverpool have said they will renew their interest when there is just six months left.
I don't know anything else just now but will post when I do.

The Trump Card
I am back in my native homeland for a few weeks and the “rumour” is that Landon Donovan may well be heading back to Europe in January. The MLS season is drawing to a close and Donovan has mentioned that he would be willing to consider a move if LA Galaxy were comfortable with it. Having enjoyed his spell in Germany it has been suggested that a move to Bayern Munich may be on the cards, although it is likely that Everton, Fulham and Lazio would enter the bidding for the midfielder.

West Ham to finally be taken over by David Gold and David Sullivan with Michael Tabor becoming a heavy investor and Tony Cottee to also be involved behind the scenes. I would also expect Karen Brady to replace Scott Duxbury who will get the boot along with Gianluca Nani.
January ins–
Steven Taylor – 5m – newcastle,
Antonio Candreva – 2m – Udinese,
Joe ledley – 5m – Cardiff
Marouane Chamakh – 6m – bordeaux.
January outs–
Matthew Upson – 15m – Manchester City,
Mark Noble – 12.5m – Manchester United.
After the end of the World Cup if Italy don't win it Marcelo Lippi will resign and no matter where we finish in the league Gianfranco Zola will leave us to become the Italy manager. Steve Clarke will become West Ham's new manager and will be given 20m to spend by our new owners.

The Saudi investor with George Gillett is worth an estimated £2bn. He is so far down the chain of Saudi royalty. He is the grandson of King Abdullah. He is negotiating on behalf of a Saudi consortium alongside an 'old friend' of Liverpool. He (The Prince) was there to sign off investment agreements for his companies with regards to NASCAR race tracks, and with Liverpool academies, but he cannot disclose the identity of the real Saudi investors involved, which is why he is putting himself forward at the moment.
Tom Hicks has instructed Merril Lynch to negotiate a price with Shuaa Capital, and with the Qatar Investment Authority over two sets of 20% stakes. The instruction is that a new share rights issue will be made, therefore Gillett and Hicks' share value will remain the same, regardless of reduction in shareholding.
George Gillett has instructed Rothschild to continue negoitating with a consortium consisting of more major and seriously wealthy Saudi investors, who of course hired none other than Rick Parry. These Saudi investors are much higher up the chain of Saudi royalty, and have the finance necessary to blow Manchester City and their Abu Dhabi royalty out of the water. Rick Parry would hold a consultancy role with the holding company should they formalise a bid.
Rafael Benitez will have NO money to spend in January regardless of any investment.
Laugh if you wish bet you lot won't be come January. Michael carrick is set to move to the emirates for 12m. Ferguson will replace him with a torsten frings
Celtic News
Robbie Keane to Celtic for £7 million ?
This would be very unlikely as im sure Spurs would want at least £20 million for him, not to mention the fact Celtic, or Desmond wouldn't be prepared to accept his wage demands of around 60k+ per week.
The korean bhoy will complete his move to Celtic in January for a reported £2 million.
Possible outs: Gary Caldwell – Celtic arent willing to meet his wage demands of 20k per week, so will allow him to talk to other clubs. He is currently on 10k per week, but has snubbed a 13k per week offer.
If he leaves in January O'Dea will be recalled from his loan deal.
Not sure about other players ins/outs as Mowbray has signalled his intentions to build a team around Scott Brown and Aiden McGeady.
Artur Boruc has also stated he would consider signing a new contract at Celtic. I guess this would be in an attept to get a wage rise, despite the fact he is currently their highest paid player, earning 33k per week + bonuses, which is 4 times the amount of his polish counterpart Zaluska, who earns 8k per week.
With Liverpool set to receive new investment, Rafa's scouting department are hard at work. Don't believe newspaper reports saying Liverpool will sign David Villa in January for 45 million. We won't have this sort of money, Valencia won't sell mid–season, he won't move half way through a world cup year and and no 28 year old(he will be in January) is worth 45 million. Rafa will look to bring in a striker, with long term target Lavezzi much more likely.
Rafa is looking at Bolton's Gary Cahill. He is seen as a perfect long term replacement to Carragher and is a much better organiser than Agger or Skrtel. Liverpool are reportedly set to offer £12 million plus add ons. Gary Megson is reluctant to sell but I hear he is close to leaving, and a new manager might want the money to rebuild. Normally the player would jump at the chance, even more so now as it would boost his world cup hopes.
Mumbly Joe

Manutd news.david silva in £20m subotic in £12m.swap deal carrik for modric
A couple of posters have put Captain Rio's value at £30–35 mil.( + player) should he leave OT.
Given his age and the fact that his body seems to be crying "enough" I think you can put a dec point between the 3 and the 5.
United will not be spending big in January or next summer for that matter. Fergie prefers to reload than to reform.
A keeper and creative midfielder are priorities plus depending on the performance/attitude of Carrick, Nani, Hargreaves, Brown and the success of Tosic, Welbeck, Gibson, Ljajic and Evans will help him plan for the future.
If an Owen/Larson/Cantona type salvage project comes along he may well take a look epspecially when Giggs/Scholes need a break later in the season but nothing major.
