Who the hell are we signing?

Ok, so while i wait here in the office for 830, when i'll be heading off to meet up with some mates for dinner, let me give a rant about the lack of, shall we say, action, by Liverpool to sign any players so far. I mean it's friggin end of June already, Rafa / Parry / whoever, and the Champs League qualifiers are just 2 weeks away. It seems Didi has signed a new deal, Biscan, sadly has been allowed to leave, as too Smicer. Milan Baros wants to leave, then wants to stay, then wants to leave and now wants to stay, after it seems rejecting Houllier and Lyon, and Valencia now prefering that fuckwit Kluivert instead. A few of the fringe players have also been given the boot, along with Ritchie Partridge, admittedly, one of my few favourite Championship Manager-ish players, who i was hoping would actually make the cut. Oh yeah, and it looks like Sicknote Kirkland could, no should, be on his way to the Baggies for a year now.

So, who are we buying, Rafa?

Well, it seems we are / should be getting Jose Reina from, suprise surprise, Spain. Seems like a quality keeper, who even Arsenal seemed interested in. Haven't actually seen a lot of him to pass any worthwhile mention, but if Rafa wants him, I guess he should be quality.

The more interesting, and juicy rumours would be on the striking department, where we have been linked to almost every single god damned striker there is. First, there was Raul, who, just the thought of him joining would be what wet dreams are made of. Imagine, Raul and Morientes. Linking up with each other. Banging in the goals. Like 'em 'ol days. Sadly, like fuck is that going to happen. Like fuck. Another player who has been strongly linked with us has been Dirk Kuyt, the so called Dutch Wayne Rooney. I just hope that its more of the footballing skill side of Rooney they are comparing to, rather than the fat arsed, over weight prick I would gladly put my foot into his face. Again, haven't seen, so can't comment, but his record in the Dutch league seems to be absolutely astonishing. But, then again, so was Mateja Kezman.

Then, it brings us to Peter Crouch. Gangly, beanpole, unorthodox, Peter Crouch. If you ask me, actually I would NOT mind if we were to get him for around 5 million pounds. He is tall, so must be good with headers, and amazingly, he is pretty decent on the ground as well. I did see him play a few times last year, including THAT game against Liverpool, and I must say, I was pretty impressed. He would definitely offer something different to the team other than the lighting speed of Ciise, and the Brains of Morientes, or the blind alley running of Baros.

But thats the thing as well. Striking options is definitely what we are desperately in need of. I mean, other than those three, we still have Ponggole who i think seems to be developing pretty well, and also Mellor, and there's even le Tallec and Garcia who can play "in the hole".

For me, if we were to get only ONE player this summer, it definitely has to be a winger cum creative attacking midfielder. Oh yeah, and dump that fucking Aussie back to Leeds, or where ever.

So, Rafa, who are we getting this summer? I can't wait.

Petrol Prices Going Up.... Again

Bloody hell. Rumours are it might go up anywhere between 5 sen to 15 sen per liter. I just got a call that it might even go up tomorrow. Last time this happened i didnt even know it was going up until I was passing by my friendly neighbourhood petrol station and saw the "mile-long" queue and thought to myself, what the fuck do these people know that i dont know? Luckily my tank was already full, or else, it would have been another one of those "monkey see, monkey do" actions happening there. Later.

UPDATE: Nope, prices DIDN'T go up, did they?

Sothinathan suspended

THIS I just don't understand. Just because you are under the party doesn't give you the right to question any of the parties actions? What the FUCK is that? So the party just wants non-thinking "Yes"-men among their ranks? I mean, just because you question something doesn't make it wrong. Anyone should be able to question anything! Then, you should "justify" your actions. What is happening to this world?

Stuck In a Jam

Bloody fucking hell. Was caught in the traffic for 1 bleeding hour today due to the IDB road closures. This sort of things make me absolutely furious. Bloody hell, I pay my friggin' road tax every year, and once some foreigner comes to town, people like me just get pushed to the side while they just fucking zoom through. Can someone PLEASE justify this to me? The spirit of Malaysian being polite and accomodating to guests? Well, they are not the ONLY people in need of getting to a fucking meeting on time. OUT.

Do we want Kezman?

Koptalk or as some people would refer to it as "craptalk" of usually one of my favourite places for Liverpool news. Like this particular one. Do I want Mateja "I can score shitloads in Holland but i cant hit a cow's arse with a banjo in Ingurland" Kezman playing for Liverpool next year? Fuck NO!
