Rafa really needs to hold a team talkIMO, we should never even have flirted with Owen in the first place. Given that everyone knew the focus was on a center-back and right winger, and that in Crouch, whatever you think...
"I spent 2 and a half hours talking to the new Guy at Anfield and he explained to me in simple terms that I'm too small to be a target man, rarely use my left foot other than as a support for my right and am unable to play from a deep wide position, converging on a target man.
He asked me if I would find the bench at Anfield any more comfier than one in Spain.
I decided to take my chances with Newcastle. After all, they've given me a get-out clause which I can use after the World Cup so I can take the opportunity to cream off some other Saps at another club after my successes in Germany. I WILL be successful in Germany cos I'm great, me. My Mum and Dad keep telling me when they ring me from the Maldives.
I'll keep saying nice things about Liverpool. After all, I'm still only 25 and might still need them in the future, plus, my Dad did manage to take them for £100 Grand when Man U and my favourite club, Everton turned me down.
Just gotta hope that Real don't ditch the Brazilian Guy and put Sven in charge. I'll be kicking me self if they do. But probably not with my left foot."
Cheers
Michael
ps really, I'm great, me. "
