Id be a lot more upset if i followed a team who have only just stopped short of digging up a dead player to put their 2 cents in.

The pathetic ramblings of nobodies like quinn and kamara has only left liverhampton looking even sadder.

I wonder if there will be a justice campaign if he joins a different club ;)

And with the usual system the team going second is always playing catch up, with this system that dynamic changes every two penalties after the first one.

When you consider it getting to the sudden death the advantage becomes clearer:

AB 1
BA 2
AB 3
BA 4
AB 5

SUDDEN DEATH

Them A goes first, pressure on B.
Team B then goes again, pressure on A.
Then team A goes first, pressure on B. and so on....

Under the old system the person stepping up for team B (if team A had scored) would always know a miss would be instant defeat.

Didn't take for the 'lump it up to Fellaini' tactic to appear. :(

Why , why , why do certain clubs think money is no object and pick off your best player's just before the start of the season..:(:td:

Yes it certainly will be interesting as we don't need to spend £90 million on a striker from the lesser side of Merseyside.;):D

At first I thought you were referring to Lukaku, but he only cost £75m, then I remembered that Barca have just offered £90m for Coutinho so I now know who you are talking about. :):p:

You are forgetting the expensive add ons if he works a bit harder and breaks a sweat and actually puts the ball in the net instead of falling over his own feet.;):p:
