Topic: Jose Manuel Reina

[andspecks]

are you blind?....

Nah, I'd agree with this. I would say it's one of the very few weaknesses to his game. He has misjudged those situations quite a few times before.

[Hahariz]

He better stay he's been here through the shit times and now things look like getting better, i'll be incredibly pissed off if he joined arsenal or utd without giving this new project a chance 

eh? a manc who doesnt want reina to join us? we need him mate 

[Vinay]

Terrible at penalties. Always concedes them.

Noo just given a silly custom title couldn't care less about utd and yes you do need him but he's ours!

Cant believe you'd be annoyed with Pepe joining when you need a new 'keeper due to VDS retiring.

can't imagine what'll happen to ure username if he does leave mate

Wouldn't pay much attention to that. Lady Di was saying similar stuff a few weeks before he handed in a TR.

Plus it is the official magazine, no?
The only print happy, clappy stories, and aren't likely to suggest he is on his way out.
Nice quotes, but I am not getting carried away, and no one else should.

But as Jimmy Corkill mentioned up there, for standing up to the former regime when our local lads weren't doing so, when he does go, provided he doesn't fuck about, he should leave with him head well and truly high and be welcomed back.

Good lad, Pepe!

Im not worried

that's really tickled me; I can just imagine the kohl-tinged interview he will soon be having with Martin Bashir!

I get the feeling Pepe is feeling this club again, he seems to have that big smile back on his face and his mojo has returned.

Pepe will be with us next season, I am sure of it.

[Vonza]

Pepe will be most loved by Liverpool fans.

Couldn't agree more.

I was convinced he was off until I watched him at the Emirates, his body language was so much more positive, the way he celebrated at the end has now convinced me he's staying.

Balague: If the American owners promise new acquisitions in the summer and nice future plans there is a high chance Pepe will stay


Thats from that guy jeremy_LFC

So predictable that fella. There's a bit of a shift in views about Reina's future and Ballague suddenly has the inside scoop.

Ya,agree with ya but the fact that he got the Torres thing right just gives me straws to clutch at really.

Who's this Jeremy fella anyway? Amazing how these people suddenly sprout up on twitter with all the inside info. Just put scout or journalist in your bio and away you go. Wouldn't suprise me if that Ballague quote was fabricated either.

Not sure really, he comes across like hes genuine but dont they all. As I said....straws....clutching...

What does that even mean? What would they promise....shit signings and a mediocre future?

Sure it wasn't from Captain Obvious?

Dont know whats happened to him. He used to be awesome at saving penalties.

[Aristotle]

He seems to have lost his mojo. Think he needs a missed pen to get it back, even if it's a skied one.

[andspecks]

Defoe missed one against Pepe this season I think.

[Ambrosia]

Saving penalties isn't a skill though. It's all about researching the opposition players and luck.

So really can't hold, not saving pens, against Pepe.

[..Bruiser..]

Bring in Valero! Reina would be even better with him back.

[Rohit]

Bring in Valero! Reina would be even better with him back.

That probably is why he isn't saving as many. Didn't reina say he did alot of work with him on which way striker like to usually go for a penalty and he used to help torres on goalkeepers habits to know which finish to use.

It was Pepe's knowledge that informed Casillas which way to go in the penalty stop against Paraguay during the World Cup.  Does that count?

[007.lankyguy]

What does that even mean? What would they promise....shit signings and a mediocre future?

I've just got the idea in my head of the meeting Pepe arranges with John Henry:

Pepe: I want to leave the club. Arsenal need a good goalkeeper and they want to offer me a considerable amount of money

JH: But we have a good future ahead.

Pepe: Oh ok where do I sign?

[Billy The Kid]

Balague can be a bit of a monotonous tit at times

So Mr. Balague, can you tell us if Pepe Reina will be staying or leaving Liverpool in the summer?

Balague: "Yes, I can definitely confirm he will either stay or go. It will definitely be one or the other

Must have a right splintered arse on him from sitting on the fence so much

[Prof]

I've been wondering where Valero is now.  Surely Valero being brought back would help Pepe make up his mind to stay.

Pretty sure Valero is part of Rafa's "team" and won't go without him

IIRC he went to Inter with Rafa. I don't follow Italian football at all so I don't know if he's still there or if he left when Rafa did.

[horne]

Nah, I'd agree with this. I would say it's one of the very few weaknesses to his game. He has misjudged those situations quite a few times before.

no i mean to the saves he made...saved us big time

[Prof]

Wikipedia (I know) says he left with Rafa and is living in merseyside.

So if we want Valero, we have to have Rafa too?.... If only there was a way to do just that without losing the KK - SC partnership.

[koolkamal]

I've been ITK all the time, kept saying Reina wouldn't be leaving.. all of a sudden these new people get on talk shows and post on twitter and everyone believes them but no one believed me.

Next time I won't give out any ITK information.

[cptrios]

I'm feeling more and more as though he'll stay as well. I don't think he'll go to Man U, as he at least has enough club loyalty not to be that much of an asshole, and I don't think Arsenal is as attractive a destination as they were last year. I reckon it would take a team like Real, Barca, or maybe Inter calling to get him to move. And that's unlikely to happen, no?

And I do, unfortunately, agree that he's not particularly great at penalties. But would you rather have a Pepe who's crap at penalties or a shoddy overall keeper who's great at them?

[cyador]

Did we ever get a new goalkeeping coach after kelly left with roy? or did we just promote  Achterberg from the reserves?

[reddd10]

Someone check the profiles on .tv as I'm on mobile. Should say on there right?
