Very odd, I agree. Although it is now 3:4 for Dortmund now.

What were the odds that Odd would lead so early. What are the odds that Odd will qualify for the next round?

Good to see we are clearing out some of the dead wood and players who are no longer good enough

So far have dispensed with:

Capoue
Paulinho
Kaboul

Still more to go I hope - Soldado, Fazio, Stambouli, Adebayor.....

What do Liverpool fans think of the Sterling transfer saga?
warspite1

To paraphrase a famous naval aviator "scratch one Stambouli"

warspite1

...and now Vlad Chiriches is off and Adebayor likely (although I will believe that only when it's done).

Good stuff - keep clearing out the dead wood please

warspite1

Exit Soldado and Fazio - hussah!

I have no idea what is going on at Tottenham. Apparently strikers are an optional extra

warspite1

When he can be bothered he is a fine player. But as Arsenal, Man City, Real Madrid, and Spurs have found to their cost, he is very often less than bothered.....

And while we are on the subject of , I see that the rumours that Lamela was on his way out have not come true... I would have kept Lennon over Lamela any day of the week.

That is a real bummer. I have always preferred players who give their best at any given situation.

Sadly Scotland have made life somewhat difficult. It's going to be tough to get a play-off place now

Well. For the team, yeah, for me, nah
Seriously, we are NOT good enough, and now the Norwegian FA are telling us on radio how Croatia is a world leading football nation...
If they think Croatia are that hard to beat, why even try to get to the championship, where we would have to go up against teams like Germany, France, Italy and Spain?

(Hmm, I wonder why my teachers through the years always told me I used too many commas and hence created too long sentences )

And Iceland are living the dream.

The Icelanders can be proud of their team. The Dutch ... oh dear.

They have a great team on paper.

Iceland!
Czech Republic, they have a decent team.
Turkey, when they really want to win, they can, most often they forget to concentrate as a team and lose.

Holland really have to expect a miracle. Hope to defeat the Czech's and wish for a defeat of Turkey against the Czech's.


I really wonder what the odds are there.

We have not properly recruited in the close season, leaving us stupidly light in strikers. Despite the fact that we cannot score goals, too much reliance and pressure is heaped on young Harry Kane, we have Premier League unknowns in Son and N'Jie (are either really strikers anyway?) the fact that this strange individual has gone can only be a good thing for the club.

Indeed.

But morale in the squad should improve now. Right?
