Liverpool, and the scouse people are a country and nation, like any other. How anyone who wears our shirt, can then brazenly tramp themselves with England, Brasil, Argentina, San Marino, Liechtenstein etc is beyond me. What a step down, why put yourself through that? Hopefully players will just start retiring from national football once they break into the first team. If we are going to have national football let it be at youth level where it belongs. feck England, feck Hodgson, feck the London cockney press, as far as I'm concerned, there is Liverpool and then there's the Universe/eternity and all that sail in her. Guess which one is more important, Liverpool, or everything that is not Liverpool?
