Balotelli? Indeed he did.
Vaguely recall it now. Was under the impression he went straight to Milan :lol:

When will they return to signing the likes of him, Carroll, Benteke and Keane up top again?

:eek: Did that really happen?!
He came in that wierd summer after Suarez left when Liverpool signed him, Rickie Lambert and Markovic to fill that void and predictably they all flopped.

Liverpool then loaned him out for a few years until his contract expired.

Victor Moses played for Liverpool and Stoke. I don't remember that at all. Aly Cissokho also played for Liverpool while Moses was there. What a shithouse.

Also, I recently remembered that Victor Valdes played for us a few years back. Doesn't feel like that actually happened either.

Didn't he play for Boro too?

Anyway to most noticeable thing he did was refuse to go on tour with the club, I remember Van Gaal being pissed off in his first presser of the tour about this.

Yes, he played for Boro.

I remember his involvement in this more than anything he did in a United shirt:

Not much of a fan if you only support them in good times ;)
Is that you Watson. I had to look at your name twice, thought it said `Diouf` a first. Naah, just a joke.

Feelings are a complicated thing, and i do support them. The most important thing. Solskjaer / United, brought the joy back for me. It has been a looong time since i have been standing in front of the telly singing, and now i stand singing `Ole`s at the wheel` all by my lonesome, and i even chant at work. I feel like a teenager again. I remember i did so when BRFC 4 - Man Utd 3 in 2006 also, what a game football can be.

But all besides. Feelings. Enjoy them. It`s not always black and white, and it can be quite complicated.

PS. Solskjaer was a Liverpool supporter at first (but not anymore, promise. He was to young to know better i think he is quoted)

PPS. .. and Robben at United? A little old ain`t he

I`m just joking. You started it. :D

Like Neville did, i will kiss you on the forehead next time you play cute .. Have a nice day!

Nuri Sahin at Liverpool.

Wasn't he massively rated at some point and like so many at Dortmund hardly did anything after he left them.

Could be imagining it but didn't he end up at Madrid aswell?

Yes. Liverpool played him as a number 10 and it failed as expected.

Yeah, Sahin went to Madrid first and disappeared off the face of the earth as soon as he got there. Liverpool took a punt on him after that without any success.

Indeed he did. From Dortmund to Madrid.

Apparently he's even had a stop at Harvard business :lol:

Sure he's been mentioned earlier in this thread but Steven Caulker at Liverpool was a proper bizarre sight aswell.

That signing actually happened under Klopp rather than Hodgson or Rodgers.

Think that happened right after he was moaning about United playing long balls against them, only for him to sub on Caulker as a striker and hoof it towards him a few weeks later.

Huntelaar having played for Milan and Madrid is weird to me, because he was barely used by them.

Which led me to discover that Colin Kazim “Kâzım Kâzım” Richards now plays for Corinthians after spells at Feyenoord and Celtic

He's currently at Veracruz FC in Mexico

Tommy started the cup final against Man. City in 2011. Was second choice to Begovic at the time but their cup keeper.
