Posted: Thu Oct 16, 2003 10:19 pmduff is a total waste for £17 million.His goals for games ratio is poor.
Harry is magnificent and he loves playing in the red shirt,it's a dream come true for any Liverpool supporter.

Posted: Fri Oct 17, 2003 10:30 amI think its unfair to say Duff is a waste of £17 million. He's a brilliant player. I do think however that we got the best deal with Kewell. I think that there is something happening at Liverpool. I ve noticed a couple of players starting to raise their game Ie Diao and even Biscan who I wish we had never bought but anyway. I am no longer as pessimistic about our chances this year. The early defeats may have actually taken some presssure of the players.
Posted: Fri Oct 17, 2003 3:44 pmall these things are relative.ferdinand 30mil,veron29mil,barthez10mil,heskey11mil,mendieta30mil etc etc.amongst that lot duff was a bargain.Of course compared to harry he is expensive but harry was a steal.the only reason we got him so cheap was we had leeds over a barrel.How much would we have had to pay chelski? or arsenal?20million maybe?not such a bargain anymore and a lot more pressure on harry.Errikson ( he picked the players) knew what he was getting with duff,100% commitment and the ability to turn defenders inside out.he is the kind of player who makes defenders s##t themselves.not many of them around.He is an easy going bloke and just wants to play football thats why he didnt bother waiting till near the end of his contract to secure a better deal for himself,unlike harry.He has an ocasional pint in my local pub and although i never met him i heard he was devestated when he was booed at anfield first match of the season.He would have joined liverpool if they had given blackburn more than chelski,simple as that,even if liverpool had offered less wages .I would have thought liverpool fans would respect a player who allowed his club to get a decent profit when he was leaving.remember how we felt when macca left for nothing. sorry about the rant!
