I really thought weā€™d sign Anelka but Ged said no!

Did not know he did a knee slide as well. Itā€™s this kind of spirit and emotion that us Liverpool supporters adore and love (hmmm, Nunez has that in abundance too).

We will be stupid, if we donā€™t exercise his buy option.

I did it with Yossi against Atletico in 2010.

One of the saddest defeats in my following.

Probably his first weak day yesterday. Iraola spoke about the amount he travelled during the international break. Was glad he took him off, he wasnā€™t up to speed.

Fluff piece, but good to see him getting some attention:

At this moment, for the price, it seems like a no brainer. Early days yet though but we are likely to let jomez go at the end of the season i think.

Him and Jacquet have added a bit of steel to our back line and it is helping Virgil a lot as he does not have to baby sit anybody and is looking his serene best again.

Gomez has to go, so off the pace, always injured so can never get up to pace. It doesnā€™t matter if he goes or stays we still need a right back and a central defender.

As things stand, I think the club will want to keep Virgil. Where things will probably be key is of course the numbers, length of contract (or how itā€™s structured) and wages. But especially the former.

If heā€™s leaving, then the LCB spot opens up after a long time. Jacquet could be a candidate to play on that side if needed, but heā€™s also relatively new at the high level (and doing very well so far). Araujo is not a candidate for that, even if heā€™s bought permanently.

Araujo himself said yesterday some key words like weā€™ll see, itā€™s too early, weā€™ll see what he will want. Heā€™s not stupid, he sees someone like Jacquet appearing out of nowhere in a position which is ultimately his best one. Will he want to be in competition or guaranteed more? Who knows.

And yes, this is almost surely now Gomezā€™s final season with us and weā€™ve seen the benefits of having more players who can play both CB and full back.
