500 games for Sami would be a huge achievement for him and the club. He'd be our FIRST OUTFIELD PLAYER from abroad to make the 500 games if it's possible. Are we backing Sami to make the 500th mark?

i think he make that mark if he's here till abt 38 or so .. but next season no way

Sami Hyypia should not be given a new contract. In his prime he was a good player. ALiverpool played a defensive style that was perfect for him. When Liverpool changed mentality and ventured forward a bit more and pushed the back 4 further up he fell apart. Also his age destroyed his pace and he never positioned himself well or had good skills on the ball. Nowadays I become frightened whenever I see his name on the sheet. Not only because we are in danger of conceding, but also becouse him being part of the 11 signals how far away we are from the quality of Arsenal, Chelsea and Man U.

It is time to let him go and remember him as a decent player in the years 2000-2003.

435 games now for Sami. He's been our best defender this year and I think now we're in talks with him over a new deal we should do everything to get him signed. Legend in every sense of the word.

Would be an excellent 4th choice. Experienced, talented, professional and still able to do more than a job at the highest level. We would be crazy to let him go if he wishes to stay.

Never really had the pace but he is excellent with his positioning so who cares what age he is he can do the job as well as anybody, another year at least should be his reward.
