Liverpool have sold out of the £10 “Beach Set” that diverted the team’s title prospects at Sunderland and will search Manchester United supporters for any offending items, including beach balls, before Sunday’s Premier League clash at Anfield.
The club’s online store has experienced a rush on the “Beach Set” package following Darren Bent’s winning goal at the Stadium of Light on Saturday, when his shot struck a Liverpool-crested beach ball and ricocheted beyond goalkeeper José Reina. United supporters are suspected of being behind the increased demand for Liverpool beach products, with a “tribute” to Bent’s goal planned but risk having them confiscated at the turnstiles on Sunday. “It will be the normal search policy,” said a Liverpool spokesperson.(Guardian)
Just when you think you have seen everything at a football match you are greeted with the absurdity that was the Darren Bent assist for the Liverpool beach ball on Saturday. You can’t blame the United fans for cashing in on their rivals misery and you can guarantee the Anfield supporters would jump at the chance of doing likewise if they could.
Now presumably people will try to sneak in unblown up Beach Balls on their person and then attempt to blow them up with pumps. Therefore stewards should be wary of people claiming to having a third leg that will in fact turn out to be some sort of industrial strength pump needed to blow all the balls up before kick-off!

How can you possibly claim no other top teams look strong?
Arsenal have won seven on the bounce in all comps and only lost two tough away games in Manchester, either of which could easily have gone the other way.
United are doing their usual in winning/drawing games they shouldn’t necessarily get anything from (that’s not a pop at United – they’ve turned it into an art-form), which has always been the way they win titles.
Chelsea have slipped up recently but are still second and 6 points clear of Liverpool.
Even Spurs (!!!!!) look more impressive than the ‘Pool, and that’s a sorry state for anyone to be in.
I’m sorry. I have nothing against Liverpool, but they have literally NO squad, and are far far from having the strongest in the league. N’Gog and Voronin anyone? Take out Gerrard and Torres and there is absolutely nothing else there…

Its the same squad that came 2nd last year if anything its been strengthened rafa just has to get it right. Its his trying to introduce wing backs that has messed things up we aren’t out of anything and yes we have the best squad in the league Gk-reina, cavalieri, martin RB-johnson LB-insua, aurelio CB-carragher, agger, skrtel, kyrgiakos, ayala, kelly CM-gerrard, mascherano, aquilani, spearing, lucas LM-benayoun, riera RM-kuyt, babel, el zhar CF-torres, nemeth, ngog left out the shit players degen, dossena, itandje, voronin (ngog definitely isn’t one of them) we could do with recalling nemeth who is an awesome player to play with torres or be his back up sort out the formation and tactics, get babel playing on his natural side or up front and we can still have a great season

Ah ???? Top class defender! like the use of four centre forwards in one team too to try and make it look like there is any balance there! Two wide players in a whole squad? What is this chelsea? I would take ours any day over that collection of journey men misfits that squad will bicker their way to fuck all this season
anonymous - October 20th, 2009 at 6:44 pm
drop kompany into ???? position (even though ???? would have probably done better than carragher and skertl this season. and Agger may aswell be called ???? given the amount of time he is fit)
WTF? robinho and bellamy are as much wide players as kuyt (failed center forward) benayoun (central attacking midfielder) babel (who all the scousers on here have pilliored benitez to play him center forward in torres absence)
riera is your only natural wideman

WHAT!? so a team like manu who loses most of thier games at the start of season now say because liverpool cant do it because they have lost some games AND now you say because we have had bad form we wont win anything we have always been underdogs and this season is no different after all its only october and plenty of time for both chelsea manu and arsenal to slip up

Hmm, that best squad in the league just lost again, and at home.
Sorry mate, they have no strength in depth. I was going to go through and make a comment about each player you listed, but I realised I’d just repeatedly be saying who? to most of them.
I’d be very surprised if Liverpool qualify for Champs league, let alone win anything. Maybe the pointless cup. I think they better field a full side against Arsenal’s kids, otherwise they could be further embarrassed…
Oh, and to RaNE, the difference between Liverpool and Man U is that Man U have lost games and then won leagues. Liverpool have lost games then not (for the last 20+ years). I’m an Arsenal fan but that’s a simple equation. And I’m not making these comments because of form. I’ve said this since the start. Their squad is paper-thin. It annoyed me that everyone wrote off Arsenal despite a very healthy squad whilst championing Liverpool. It never made sense and that is now being borne out.
