If we had a PoP on the Cafe, who would it be?
RAWK Goes into Meltdown 2014/2015 - The "We go again" Edition
- Thread starter Pexbo
- Start date
He wouldn't make it out of the newbies even these days so most of us wouldn't know he was signed up.
sigh
Pack all that sterling up nice and bonny before you send it down the 62 la.
Mancs stealing the scousers dollar for a change.

We had someone who had the tagline "Is always right" Im guessing him
I'm sure Xavi would have preferred getting hammered by Crystal Palace and Stoke to winning a treble.
How to win an argument, Rawk style:
The only reason we were able to sign Depay:

As far as I can tell, the big issue with PoP (besides his ego) is that he treats anyone who disagrees with him like an idiot and expects to be treated as some sort of wise man. That thread was just a case of overthinking it afaik, as well as forgetting how sarcastic Caf posters are.
On Ings

Truth.
Yeah, Stevie's farewell was truly spectacular, Barca players didnt even all have Xavi's shirts!

Pathetic by Barca...
Its 6 times now lads.
Even their justification for bad signings in 2015 are based on evidences from the 70s and 80s.
I despair that Van Gaal didn't at least try to buy someone from Aberdeen, now that they're doing so well. We'd do well to unearth a new Gordon Strachan.
You know it's an underwhelming signing when even on RAWK they're depressed over this transfer.
At least none of Ronaldo's fanboys on here claimed Madrid's win last year was United's fourth Champions League title.
Its 6 times now lads.
I know, I thought it was an absolute gem of a post, especially when he rounds it off by saying "people with blinkered views are never going to have their mindsets changed" I think its not with the scousers you'd never know.
Didnt find it on rawk, I rarely if ever go there.
This one isn't real but it's still fun.
Do they ever quote posts from the Cafe on there as we do here?

Its so true. He nearly dragged them to a league last year and they have reverted to their usual spot again now that he's gone.
Yeah but Stevie had a great farewell party which Suarez missed. I'm sure he's depressed about it.
Also.. From Suarez to Ings ( with all due respect to Ings )...
No. They're not as mental as we are.
No way did they actually put that up?
Its 6 times now lads.
Forget Ings himself, comparing 80s signings to one in 2015 is barmy in and of itself.some people on here tried defending Moyes by comparing his record to SAF she he started I admit, they got shot down though.
Yes, the game has moved on to an extent. Unknowns from lower leagues just are not there any more, mainly because of TV coverage and that even league 2 players have agents now, promoting them and pushing them up the ladder to newer clubs, there are very, very few unknown quantities in professional football now.
The telling thing about Ings is that hes a free, and even then not many were in for him. If pool are happy with 7th - 5th place consolidation and europa every year, hes a clever signing, but he is not going to be someone who will push them to challenge for top four. Given the amount of money it would take to do that, it may be that fenway is actually going this route, which whilst not going to make fans happy, is probably sensible.
The delusion is still real.
True, and the standard has increased with the amount of foreign players here, so its harder for a plucky lower league player to make such an impact I'd say. Ings is probably just gonna be a rotation option, which might mean he actually plays most games is Sturridge doesn't overcome his injury problems.
Its 6 times now lads.
If that is legit then that is the funniest/saddest thing I have ever seen.
Are we not counting ex-Halifax, ex-Fleetwood, Jamie Vardy of Leicester City & England for proving the unknown ---> top player progression is still possible?
United were strongly linked with Ings as well at one point. We're competing well domestically at least.
I'd say it was made up by the media. Completely.
Someone actually said that on RAWK
Well that someone is smart.
There's more...
"I fecking hate Barcelona and all they stand for. I admit it. I’m hugely jealous of the whole Barcelona circus.
Ahh…that feels better already.
That was all that I could think about. The whole fecking world is in love with Barcelona when they should all be madly in love with Liverpool.
We are not a feeder club. We are not a stepping stone to greater things. We are the arrival point for any player . The fact that they can’t see it yet is not the point!"

The media spent most of last season blowing them off.
Quotes like these justify the wording of the boom-bust cycle.Every off-season they suddenly have the world's best players.
