+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+xThis is like someone is taking the piss... Read the caption and then witness the evidence  I saw this & took this with a grain of salt. However, we complain that the A-League does not promote, here we have the A-league promoting. This is the first player signing that I have seen on mainstream TV for the A-League this season, so already this is a good thing. Douglas Costa is a seriously good player, I saw him a lot when the great man Ronaldo was playing with him in Juve, he is a serious baller, that was only 3-4 years ago The fact that at 33 years of age he is in the A-League does show that yes injuries, attitude, commitment maybe not there, who knows. Will he succeed or fail, I certainly don't know as some of you posters (not you TSF), who are all already calling him a failure. All I know for a fact is some of my mates are now interested in coming to SFC to see him play, whereas last season even with free tickets I couldn't get them to come. Now if Dustin Martin does sign for Manly Warringah Wolves for next season Sydney AFL would I go & watch, don't think so, I would go WHO? The beauty of A-League off Fox sports, I now have no Foxsports, but Stan, Optus & Paramount & proud to say I cannot tell you one AFL player. Points taken. One thing I will guarantee is he will score against MV and this post will be bumped again - hence my reluctance to condemn or judge him lol. TSF, I hope he does score MV. I too will wait to judge. For the sake of the A-League I hope he succeeds & puts egg on some of these bitter faces on here. I don't think people are being bitter. More taking the piss at what is some really silly statements I support the A-league and would love to see football being successful in Australia in all forms, but I will also call it out when we need to get better. Well said and welcome back robbos good to see you posting I was watching the Olympics LFC. Looks like Liverpool have started well under new manager. Best Olympics since 00 imo wasn’t it great. As you know long way to go but 2 on the bounce can’t complain. Lfc sorry to change the subject but you need to check out the interview with beintez on the overlap YouTube it's fascinating Yeah I heard he rated Gerrard better than Ronaldo, I did laugh!!!! Well that's his opinion it's boring if everyone says the same thing let the man talk Hence why I laughed at his opinion, mine was different. He succeeded at Liverpool, not to Klopp level, but did well, he failed miserably in the biggest club in the world, as a matter of fact probably the worst manager there in recent memory, maybe that clouded his judgement. What is " Klopp level " ? Compared to the boot room managers, he was pretty much a flop. As LFC will tell you, Liverpool not my fav team, but Klopp didn't have the financial backing of the 'boot room managers' where Liverpool were the Man City of the 80s, both in terms of winning trophies & financial powerhouse. oi 70's and 80's :) my correction and yes overlooked your biggest club statement for yes thats LFC not RM haha but yer he failed there. We're pretty harsh but thats us armchair devotees. Oh look out Sutho joined the party :) we're all good eh even though I'm 17,040.49klms away from Anfield lol....... Yes Boot Room was in the "zone" those days as robbos mentions we had it all and definately one of THE Clubs those 2 decades as you all know. Sutho for clarity who was the flop ? Rafa or Klopp ? Love the banter LFC.

+x+xHe actually done better than you expect - lost good players brought in some cracker players and did win 4 Cups but also went through a woeful ownership period. robbos Souness/Woy and KK mk2 had worse win ratio than Rafa incl BR. Anyway lets get back on topic as much as I enjoy this subject :) Absolutele disrespect to Rafa on here shake my head way of the world my friend, forever in our hearts he is, went though a roller coaster ride but the highs we're bloody brilliant and certain players that excelled playing for him. One who now is a Bundas undefeated Champ gaffa. I'll give him more cred he believes SG is better than CR7 hahaha box to box absolutely :)
Love Football

General consensus is we might see Douglas at Macarthur in 2 years, or will he return, that might be a bit leyte? Must admit there's somthing about a pre season Brazilian signing that gets you enthusiastic again about being a SFC fan..

Manchester City are not a patch on Liverpool of the 70's and 80's. For a start, Liverpool up until Dalglish was the manger, rarely if ever bought 2 players in a season. Most seasons they won the league and European cup with a squad of 16 or less.

Haha yer to most non supporters more so for they disliked seeing LFC be strong again and yes fail at some stages of his tenure luving to put the boot in so to speak. Some and I mean some LFC supporters disliked his throw everything at it kind of game instead of closing up shop but overall he’s been brilliant for the Club/Liverpool and the game…… You can’t have it all but it’s been an awesum 9yrs overall I’d re live it again in a heart beat compared to the fits and starts of years before.
