He's a Manc and a bellend but getting Ferdinand very late in the 4th round feels like quite good value.
You cannot call overseas Liverpool supporters glory hunters. We’ve won one trophy this decade. If they’re glory hunters, they’re really bad ones. They’re actually journey hunters. It’s the journey and the story. Something about Liverpool has grabbed them." - Neil Atkinson (May, 2019)

Feels dirty that but those England players are already getting sparse
If he's being asked to head the ball too frequently - which isn't exactly his specialty - it could affect his ear and cause an infection. Especially if the ball hits him on the ear directly.

If this were a manc forum, he'd be the steal of the draft. However.....

On a related note, it's incredible how few likeable English players there are.

I feel fortunate to have picked one of the few universally liked ones already.

Let's be honest, the only way you can get Bobby Charlton at #46 overall in a draft of these four countries is if it's being done on a Liverpool forum ;D

Many people on here think Jamie Carragher is a bellend for his post-career exploits so I guess nearly any English player no matter what will come at a RAWK premium :D

Dont be childish, he was good, pains me to say it but he was.

Around 2004-2007 he was the best centre back out there. Period. Then the little pace he had fell off but he was still a titan for a few more years. Not the best guy on the planet neither on nor off the field, but an absolute world-class player.

Ahhh Kluivert, what a player he could have been.

Euro 2000 really should've been his defining moment and with his five goals on the way to the semis it was well and truly supposed to be his Ballon d'Or. How that unravelled for him. I get the vibe that he never truly recovered from that Italy game. He did well for a few more years but the momentum was gone.
