    Is their league even underway yet? I remember it was suspended/postponed because of the war there.
    Crazy good achievement by Dnipro.

    Sevilla getting back to the final is also an achievement, especially since Valencia will get that last UCL spot in Spain, so Sevilla need to win the Europa League for sure.

    ManU apparently trying to sell Di Maria, praying we can get our hands on him. Would be the perfect piece.

    Ancelotti apparently leaving Real for Man City, as he doesn't feel appreciated enough. Rumouredly signed a deal with City one month ago.

    For the Dutch brehs, can you tell me anything about Answar El Ghazi from Ajax? Bayern are said to be scouting him.

    Could have sworn that Pellegrini was with Real before he joined City as well.

    Why would Ancelotti have signed a deal a month ago when Real were still in the hunt for La Liga and the CL. ****ty tabloid rumour. Classic, he might get fired now so lets pretend this was determined a month ago because he didn't feel appreciated. Make it look like we knew all along. 2+2=? Please...

    I read City weren't willing to part with Pelli this season for anyone other than Pep.

    What a great team performance for Gerrard's final game at Anfield! Too bad the same can't be said about LFC.

    Oh well. We're used to disappointment and mediocrity (or well below) from our good guys. From the looks of it, we'll only sink lower and lower for seasons to come! What a great day to be a Reds fan.

    Really? Sterling has looked like garbage the last half of this season. Markovic is terrible. Can is a midfielder playing right back, not well mind you. And who else is there? Ibe? If so, lol. I will give you Coutinho though, not spectacular but too good for Liverpool. Will probably move on to a better club if he gets better:)

    Yeah, we're officially a feeder club... if not already for the past few seasons. Had no idea it would come to this when Xabi Alonso and Co started leaving.

    What ever happened to that Singaporean (or Chinese) billionaire that almost bought the team before FSG turned up? Is he still interested? Or there has to be other Arab billionaires with more money than he knows what to do with out there.

    Liverpool have actually been a feeder club for a long long time now. Just look at McManaman, Owen, Alonso, Torres, Suarez etc. I mean, how long is it since they won the English league? 25 years? They have a nice history, but I'm sorry buddy. Top talent will choose better clubs than a team that haven't won the domestic league in 25 years.

    I think it'll be more pronounced now that our two homegrown boys in Carra and Stevie retiring (MLS for Stevie is basically vacation with pay). I don't count Owen and Torres as feeding other clubs (because I dislike them bishes after they left).

    I see, but that's not really the point. Owen and Torres were Liverpools best players but decided to move on to bigger clubs. Hence Liverpool being a feeder club back then also.
