We need to judge RH at the end of the season, not now. We're not Madrid who sacks their managers every one (sometimes half) season or so.

etc etc.

I know stick and stones will not stop you from hyping.

My advice to you is don't over-hype it.
Our team does not need hyping. What they need is stay focus and deliver the results.
It seems you never stop shooting your own feet (when you hype). And it makes you look like suffering from personality disorder.
Besides, you indirectly make our team, Liverpool, look like a laughing stock (whenever we couldn't deliver results after your big hype).

Before the game 
After the game 

do you believe Miracles do happen?

remember the night in Istambul?

 

HE will be sacked even if he dun perform after Jan 2011

so if he is sacked, who would you wan to take over fr his hot seat?

Kenny Dalglish ( the famous KOP )

SAF (this guy, nickname "hair dryer" is VERY GOOD at fcuking his players )

Jose Mourinho ( the SPECIAL one)

Martin Oneil ( soft spoken )

Wow, so much condemnation of the manager. I tend to disagree.

I feel that he could have done 2 things better : (1)play Maxi instead of Lucas from the start (2)play Carra at leftback instead of Kelly and Sotirios at CB.  That may have made a difference.

Nevertheless, I thought Kuyt played well and Torres should have scored from his assistance in the second half.  When a player like Lucas continuously make mistakes, it causes others to become nervous and they in turn make mistakes.  I think RH has given Lucas enough opportunities to salvage his career in LFC!

I believe, RH is trying to lift pressure off his players' shoulders because there's just been too much expectations during RB's time.  Also, every manager has his own style - we cannot afford a more swashbuckling and charismatic manager, no thanks to the yanks : what to do?

As far as the group is concerned, LFC is still in a strong position. That's all that matters for now.

Cheers guys ... chins up for Blackpool this weekend!

hahaha...i got even nastier labels than slur....and i am sure you have too...

but we wont want them go crying to mods to ask them to delete it...

No, a Sheikh or a Chinese tycoon or Indian billionaire wont AUTOMATICALLY bring in good football...Its NOT an overnight thing.

but...on long term basis, a good owner can bring these attributes

1.  moral of players may improve.  sense of security may comes in.  Yes, we can blame these superstars of being childish and demand that even at this stage, at 50k and above a week, they should be performing.  But the fact is they are not.

2.  new owners maybe more willing to spend to get rid of RH and go for a better manager.  One frightening thought now is what if RH continues to drag us downhill with poor football, and all these while the 2 Yanks just cant afford to get rid of him? and they prefer to see the club go down just to guard their pockets? I feel the potential of a new manager coming in to replace RH (if he doesnt improve) is better with new owners. 
3.  long term, equip the squad with better players than Poulsen, etc (which will of course be more expensive). 

To me, the key is to stay competitive and be ready to bid for good players when they are available.  I mentioned it before, we cannot total up how much a manager spent on players throughout a period of 5-10 years because it is not a complete story. The key is which manager always have cash ready to spend WHEN needed and WHEN other clubs are competing to buy the same player. 

What is important is that when the club sent out scouts, there will be a time when a real gem is unearthed.  But most probably, other clubs are hunting the same player.  That will be the time when the club has to be competitive- enough cash to splash out. 

I am not comfortable with the Madrid or ManCity style of spending huge amount on Robinho, Huntelaar, Sneidjer, Abedayor, etc......(although its very exciting).  they practically flaunt their wealth to buy any mega name that is willing to come (it can be good for business, jersey income, etc) though. 

But the key is to stay competitive.
  In this sense, i do respect SLUR has achieved with MU's board..

He knew he needed to replace his aging defence, and he splashed on Stam, then Rio, then Vidic.  All these players brought success.
He knew he needed to grab Rooney from Everton to replace Cole, York, etc.  He went for it
He saw CR, demanded for it and he immediately got the cash to buy. 

In short, i dont want new owners to spend recklessly and collect galaticos.  but i would like owners who make Liverpool competitive, by having the cash to spend on a good player when its needed.

the debates between you guys really tickles me.

for goodness sake leave digilife with his right to speak up.
in a gloomy period like this, he is like a spot of sunlight to spark some optimism.

Reality or not, it is individual's view which makes us all different.

We all support LFC and this is a FACT.
Why wana fight among each other over something that will make least significance?
Even if you win over the other, what will you get? Being labeled keyboard warrior?

Get a life! We come around this thread to share views.
like it then complements it, don't like it then criticize politely.
same goes to mine.

anyway, am hoping for the best to come.
YNWA

but...but...who's perch is he going to knock then?

i was hoping for the best to come.
what does it got to do with ferguson?
i din see him got any relations with 'best'. 

well i was born close to 1990. so didnt know how well we were back in the late 80s n watching barnes makes me wonder, if we ever had a winger close to his calibre for the past decade, anyone ?

RH Son still in 1st Eleven, Poulsen

LIVERPOOL: Reina, Johnson, Carragher, Kyrgiakos, Skrtel, Poulsen, Gerrard, Cole, Meireles, Torres, Kuyt.

SUBS: Jones, Maxi, Jovanovic, Lucas, Spearing, Ngog, Kelly

Pellegrini looks a decent choice, only if he agrees to come though... he managed RM before and ppl like him gonna be expecting huge transfer fund though... so it's still not gonna happen...

that's the board decision...

maybe boomjet can give you his view
