Absolutely mad that. Tottenham don't spend big. And when they do, they WELL overpay for someone they neither needed and who'd been absolutely useless at Newcastle.

Which backfired on them massively given he was just as lazy and anonymous at Tottenham.
 
Keita has really been used in 2 roles regularly.

Keita at the base of Lallana and Coutinho woukd be a little lightweight. Would be an interesting test for Keita in this league
 
Worth remembering Keita played alongside Demme last season, whose sole job was to sit deep and smash anything and anyone who tried to get past him, allowing Keita to break forward at will because he wasn't the lynch pin.

More fool them if they ignored his **** poor efforts for Newcastle the previous 9 months.

Simple rule of thumb that clubs continually fall down on. NEVER buy off the back of a summer tournament with players selling themselves.

Cracking question from a lad work today. Got all 4 eventually but it took me into dinner.

Without googling (he says, knowing we're on the internet), which 4 players have played in a Manchester, Merseyside and El Clasico derby? 3 reds. 1 blue. It was the blue that took me ages.

From my reckoning only Owen is right from that group as the rest all miss the manchester derby. I've got owen Mcmanaman and Anelka but can't get the last one
 
I was throwing around Gravesen for ages thinking he may have turned out for City. But only Everton and Madrid.

You have one there. Owen.

Suarez bit evra so he can't have missed the Derby or am I misunderstanding the question?

Right. I got the L'pool three fairly quickly. McManaman, Owen and Anelka.

It's the blue that had me stumped all morning long.

I think it is United vs City, Everton vs Liverpool and Real Madrid vs Barca and 4 players have appeared in all of them

4 players to of played in all three of the Manchester, Merseyside and El Classico derby.

Anelka, McMananaman and Owen. One more.
 
Didn't Suarez play on all of them? Nevermind, it's City-United, not L'pool-United.

Edit: Answer below:
Its Sparky. He played for Barcelona too.

Honestly, don't remember him playing the Merseyside Derby. But the blue insists he did and who am I to argue when it comes to their Cup Final? ;).

Only got him after being that frustrated and needing a clue which was 'He played for Everton and Utd.'

Belter of a question that considering he was only at Everton 2 minutes late in his career.
 
Guinea going mad overnight with multiple reports saying Keita and his reps reiterated his desire to come to L'pool.

Like Southampton, the ball is firmly in Leipzigs court with players who want to be elsewhere.

Gonna be a long and patient window with these complicated ones.
 
Frigging half 12 KO the Sat'day to open up at Watford. Beats the fear of it being the Friday Night like with the qualifier following but dinner time KO's are just the worst. (God forbid when these Sunday half 11's come in. NOBODY wants a part of that ****!). And half the morning spent travelling down with little time before the match doesn't make things any easier. Be a late train back methinks to make up.
