Liverpool selling Keane without getting one in doesn't suprise me at all. None of Rafas tactics make any sense and it's becoming clearer that he his powerbase in the club is growing....I'm pretty sure that story linking him with City in the papers yesterday didn't pop out of thin air!

Kuranyi would be a long shot, but he's a well known player with good pedigree - unlike Pog, Dzeko and Janko. I guess fitness and form is as important as pedigree at the moment though. 6 in 17 for Schalke (9th in Bundesliga) this season. He seems to have lost his way a little, after being labelled the "perfect" striker - Brazilian skill and German graft - in the Euros in 2006 (?).

Anyway, it's a good name - we need to be hearing those once in a while.

Rafa should be bloody carpeted for blowing 5m in just 5 months on a player that he did not need and did not fit in with the Lpool style of play. Wenger must be aghast. I can only think of 2 or 3 clubs that would treat it so lightly.

Unless the rumours are true and Keane was Parry's, not Rafa's, pick.

Uneventful is terrible.

Coming into this window we were probably a short a good striker, a central midfielder, a right midfielder and a right back.

We've signed a left back / centre back who provides useful cover and another player who could fill either the striker or right midfield role, although is hardly inspiring in either.

We've then lost a striker and a player who regularly fills either the right back or right midfield option, but was also an option for central midfield.

In other words, we are still short a central midfielder, a striker and a right back.

I don't think there is any chance we'll sign a central midfielder.

Uneventful is terrible.

Our definitions of terrible differ there Eddie. I'll say what some here are perhaps afraid to say:

I expect to stay up, period. Even if we don't gain anyone new today; even with Emo down 'til next season. There are just too many awful clubs in this division right now, regardless of the money being spent. In spite of Paul Ince and the cheap @#/?s that are the Trustees of the Jack Walker Settlement, I expect Premier League football at Ewood Park next season. Queue the "we're a small town club" whining.

My advice to you all: Become supporters of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Food tastes better, things like the weather never bother you and you laugh at everyone else all the time. For some of you I'd imagine it would be the equivalent of coming over to the other side of the Lord.

Now, about Sturridge and this Russian chap............ :D

"1032: Barnsley have agreed to sign Michael Mifsud from Coventry City on loan until the end of the season"

Bit of a fall from grace isn't it, wasn't he being linked with multi-million pound moves to Premiership teams not long ago? In fact, I'm sure quite a few on here were suggesting we should go for him.
