weird things happens in football. what if we beat mancity?

Was having this conversation with a manic Reds supporter...and truth be told, he hardly take note of Liverpool progress anymore, saying psychological torture of almost 20 years had taken its toll, he supported Liverpool during the 80's, he saw KD lift the title as player/manager - but since the sacking of KD, he is so down, that he sort of drifted and detached...haha...probably a bit exaggerated but boy he really mentally down and is taking a rest from supporting liverpool - to concentrate on table tennis...hahaha...and interestingly he point out that, during the Torres transfer saga, Sturridge was offered as part exchange, which was rejected...and how ironic that we should pursue Sturridge now....he rightly point out that our scouting network is really sleeping...even donkeys can target better prospects than it is currently,,,and another case in point - when we received 50 million from torres....of all the 'class' players available - we sign Carrol - what happen to Hazard, Jovetic and Sahin - ohh ya..back then was buy british....too many reasons and justification and no end-result....I for one, vote to keep carrol than bringing in Sturidge, no disrespect but cant bear another period for player to adjust and gel-in with the team bla bla bla, we have carrol who is already familiar with the team for god forsaken sake, probably i am a bit cynical, but deep down, there are too many a times that we need to chop and change players - but end-up playing just as bad - and dont talk about the fighting spirit when we went down to WBA, there is none of it...i tot Villans, or even Totenham responded better with player down than us...we are simply shitty - this season and last (remember the match against Spurs)
