Not everyone’s methods are the same or the right ones. Also different motivations of individuals.

Yeah, it’s like they hadn’t bothered to scout him, even though they won a CL largely due to his defensive weakness and lack of discipline.

Why would they need to scout him when another club will still pay a large sum to buy him in the next couple of years
Clearly a fake quote no?

Haha. Xabi wanted Frimpong, but Pérez forced Trent because something-something-galáctico. Classic Florentino.

Hopefully Frimpong doesn’t end up a poor man’s Vazquez.
Well wives often make sacrifices for their husbands…
I sure Trent Bellingham is a lovely name.

Yeah but remember when the best scouser in the PL era did this

I understand your intent to defend TAA to the hilt - which looks pretty forced at times, I have to say - but calling him the best Scouser in PL era, the era in which the likes of Stevie, Carra and Fowler played, is pretty jarring, even by the standards you set in your defence of TAA.

Why bother having this thread open? He is no longer LFC - I couldn’t give a toss if hes great or shit. Its not our concern.

I guess even if this thread was removed and he was just thrown into the general former players’ thread, some people would still talk about him there. If some others can’t stand it, then better ignore it and that’s it. Each to their own.
Honestly, there is a case to be made. Gerrard was a wonderful player, and in my own ranking, stays top. But Trent isn’t far behind. The things he can do with a football is absolutely ridiculous. Carra was a honest, tough, hard and committed defender, and we loved him because he was a Scouser. But in footballing terms, he doesn’t come near. Fowler? Yeah, definitely in the top three.
For me, it’s Gerrard, Fowler, Trent, in that order. But they are close to each other.

Gerrard is comfortable on that throne for me, don’t know what else to say.

We can’t ignore what he’s done for Liverpool.
This thread allows all the Trent related updates to come hopefully leaving the rest of the forum free for people who don’t want to read his updates.

Well, he is an ex-player in the “Former Players and Managers” section. It’s hardly off topic. Probably best to put the thread on ignore if you don’t want to see it. As a bonus, you can always redirect other posters in this direction if they mention his name.
If talking Scousers who played in the PL, then Rooney needs to be in there too. Below Gerrard and comfortably ahead of TAA.

What next. Owen ?
I don’t think the thread should be closed but I agree with the sentiment. I also couldn’t give a toss about what he does now. Great Liverpool player. No he’s gone. Move on.
In time he might be welcome back, like Crouch, Alonso, Keegan, Barnes etc etc.
But for now?
Bye.
