you dont know to much about football if you want to sell baros
he is a good prospect plus if we sell owen we will be a bit light up front
Have u ever seen baros show the form he did in euro 04? NO! and you may never see it again. i'm not sayin you wont, im just saying that it could be just a flash in the pan and that hes another diouf. THis would be the ideal time to sell baros cos a lotta clubs want him and he hasnt been showin much interest in stayin. Football can be sometimes about horses for course and baros might only be suited to international football. Altho we might have to keep him now given that owen looks to be going.
He has a great record,21 in 30 at international football which is the highest level and there is no reason he cannot repeat this form for us.
Now under Benitez he should get the chance of a decent run in the team and with proper service will prove any doubters wrong.
As for him not wanting to stay,it would be hard to blame any striker who played under houllier wanting to leave especially if that useless lump heskey was taking your place.
Compared to owen he has shown the commitment of a life long fan.
As far as owen goes alot of blame must lie with houllier who had assured us for so long that he was sure owen was gonna sign.
Now it looks like we will only receive 8m and a young prospect all be it a right mid as like I said before owen signing a new contract with us seemed like a last resort.
With the arrival of a class manager who apparently owen approved of he should have signed straight away yet after some thought must have realised Benitez would not have relied on him as much as before.
He is still only 24 and if he loved this club half as much as I do should have given our club under Benitez at least 2 or 3 seasons.
However owen doesn't seem to know a good manager from a bad 1 as he stuck with houllier for so long and a few days ago apparently spoke to some paper about how good that slaphead erikson is.

Smith to Shankly:My thigh is a bit sore,but I think I could play.
Shankly to Fagan:Tell him,Joe.He has got no chance of playing.
Smith to Fagan:Tell him to sod off.It is not his leg,it's mine.
Shankly to Smith:Oh no son.You are wrong,son.It is not your leg.
It is Liverpool Football Club's leg.
