The loon I quoted earlier on Balotelli signing.
'At Liverpool, you're not just a player, you a Liverpool player and that means you're part of our family... You are now one of us, and you are now family... Welcome to a bond with a set of fans that will not just sing your name, but look out for you, welcome to a ground where the feeling is different'.

someone in the England match thread wanted Rooney to get injured so he couldn't play QPR.
There is outright hate expressed on here for many United players.
We have absolutely no right to point at Liverpool fans in that regard.
What's with all the full names on RAWK?
Steven George Aloisius Bumberclot Gerrard has retired from international football.

I know, all they had to do was write 'Slippy has retired from international football'
Absolutely love how at their LvG thread, they're already drawing conclusions on our season based off 3 matches in which 50% of our first choice players weren't on the pitch.
Since then we've replaced Evans, Young, Valencia, Fletcher and Cleverley with Rojo, Shaw, Blind, Di Maria and Falcao. It's basically a whole other team.

All my mates actually think Sterling is currently better than Di Maria, no lie. @JP77 Your head would explode if you had to deal with them on a daily basis.
Get a different set of mates...
Bet they didn't think that before he moved to United.
I don't think Sterling is better than Di Maria but I wouldn't swap them. It's great to see a talented young player break through and make this kind of impact. I've said before but it is one of the most satisfying things to see as a fan. I enjoy big money signings but it's nicer to grow your own. Don't think that's an unusual position.
Understandable. He also has another 7/8 years on di Maria too, but it's pure idiocy to regard Sterling as the superior player at the current moment.
In the Scousers defence when Ronnie was breaking through I wouldn't have swapped him for anyone at all.
Absolutely, but the rub is they do go on about being a family, how their players/supporters will never walk alone etc.
Glen can hobble alone, though.

Didn't have you marked down as a QPR fan Pickled!
Some real bitterness on RAWKs LVG thread right now...
There are worse teams than QPR though. I reckon Sunderland and Burnley are worse for a start and Man Utd looked pretty toothless against them.

Looks their best formation. Of course, you can't account for the rank average nature of some players - for example, Blind, Herrera, Jones, Rojo, Rafael, etc.
If they don't win by a score of 20-0, it's a disgrace as far as I'm concerned.

Wasn't he stolen from QPR aged 16? That's the same as United saying we were solely responsible for Pogba, who joined us at the u18 captain for France, aged 16.
Has anyone said we made pogba?? I've not seen it? It's the same as us making Januzaj... We all know he joined from Anderlecht.
Bit touchy on here. Not denying Sterling was bought at 15 but there's still a significant role in getting him through the system and turning him into a first team player. Loads of top teams buy young teens but most fail to make the grade. Sterling is still a product of Liverpool's youth policy.
Similarly, the frenzy around Januzaj is fuelled by the fact he's 'coming through' from the youth and reserve teams.

He had first team performances almost a year from that time. He likely would have 'broken through' at QPR anyways. Although I would say you have obviously been a good place for his career.
I agree.
But United are in the enviable position of having world class talent (Di Maria and Falcao) alongside promising young players (Januzaj and Wilson).
He was always going to make it but his development is, in part, the product of his time at Liverpool.
Indeed. A bit disingenuous to claim he's a Liverpool youth product.
They deserved credit for bringing him on but he was in and about the first team not that long after he signed so he must have been pretty good already.
QPR must be gutted. Most naturally talented player they've probably ever produced and they lost him for peanuts.
Put it in the Liverpool thread. This one is for RAWK meltdown.
He can hobble to Paul koncheskys house
He won't be Keane on that.
No come back from that...
Sterling isnt your own. He was a QPR youth player. You have only Gerrard and Flanagan form the youth ranks. Flanagan is now a squad player after you bought in better players in the summer.
Would it not be fairer to smaller clubs if they could keep hold of youth prospects and be given a decent fee? (same goes for the likes of Januzaj btw).

I laughed out loud at those bottom two, amazing.
There is....almost. Post us a picture of Fellaini!
This is clearly a lie. Scousers don't have jobs.
Tbf, it's all about interpretation. He does carefully construct his sentence to say "United fan in work" - and not necessarily "at work".
So he could be standing by the window begging a United fan in work! If that makes sense.
I was thinking of Konchesky for the 'family' thing. There were a few brought in by Kenny & The Owl that 'didn't get it'.
Maybe I expressed my point badly, but I maintain that seeing a player emerge from the youth side and become a key player in the first XI is very enjoyable. Firstly it's nice to see youth given a chance and then do well but it's also a lot cheaper than shelling out lots of money for a top player.
As for your last sentence, Benitez bought Sterling for an initial fee of £600k, this could then rise to £5m but is dependent upon how many appearances he makes in the first team - which will be a lot. I'd say that is a decent fee for the selling club.
