Liverpool 2011/12

[quote=“Sandymount Red, post: 588057”]It doesn’t matter who Liverpool appoint, they are fucked for years thanks to the obscene amount of money that senile old fool spunked on the likes of Henderson, Downing, Adam, Carroll etc

They are a mid-table team. And the sooner their deluded fans who still live in the 80s get that into their head the better.[/quote]

The irony of this post coming from a shels fan. Have you given kilkenny back his deeds yet?

+1

Liverpool still have the potential to be a successful club. I was much happier when it looked like they were content with creating a living museum celebrating their past successes.

You get this shite a lot from non Liverpool fans.

No one is suggesting that Liverpool are going to win the league but you have to remember that they were a regular top 4 team not so long ago. With a few signings particularly in the midfield area and with the right manager, I think they have sufficient quality players to challenge for that again. Arsenal, Tottenham, Newcastle and Chelsea are no world beaters.

Another classic from a Liverpool fan directed at another fan who was looking forward to the appointment of a new manager:

That’s like standing at the side of the road after your parents have been killed in a car crash and getting excited about who your foster parents might be

:lol: :lol:

:lol:

Fucking hell.

Stay away from Rawk. It’s full of pubescent boys.

If he so much as mentions your forehead you shouldn’t hesitate to call in the police

Class.

Some randomer took some bait from me on Twitter earlier when I was hanging around waiting for an email before leaving work.

Must go back to him now.

Mon being touted around also!

Anyone before him.

It has to be a big name, someone with European pedigree preferably , and with a name that might attract some big names.

I’m gonna say it.

I want Deschamps.

There.

How much money is the new man going to get though? Dalglish blew an astronomical amount on garbage that will not be shifted easily. Just how deep are these Yank’s pockets? I can see an appointment from left field here, and I predict Bob Bradley will be tempted from his role in charge of the Egypt national team to kick start the soccer revolution on Merseyside.

The ‘I wouldn’t have swapped the Carling Cup victory for anything’ comment confirms the insanity of Dalglish.

To think Farmerinthecity wanted Kenny to get the Ireland job ahead of Trapattoni :rolleyes:

We need an ex-player, someone who understands the tradition of the club but also someone who has managed at the highest level in the modern era.

Step forward Steve Staunton :clap:

Well they haven’t invested a whole lot of their own money yet. Over 80m was made on sales and reinvested. This summer will show their real ambitions… Tho sacking half the staff for the season gone shows how ruthless and eager they are to succeed.

If it’s your fellow county man you’re talking about you had me in stitches reading it earlier. Am surprised he hasn’t taken it to BookFace which he normally does. His good mate on here would have to be embarrassed at how quickly he took the bait.

A new striker that Liverpool could pick up on the cheap

The Manager informed me after our testimonial match on Tuesday that the club would not be offering me a new contract.

KENNY DALGLISH today delivered a heartfelt message of thanks to Liverpool FC supporters as he started coming to terms with being sacked as Anfield manager.

The club legend and departed Reds boss, who was dismissed late yesterday by Boston based owners Fenway Sports Group, also called on Liverpool fans to stick by the owners who pulled the plug on his reign after just 16 months.

Dalglish, now on holiday abroad, told the ECHO late last night: “The response from the supporters on social media websites has been overwhelming and very, very humbling. Liverpool is still a great football club, still a club that should believe in whoever is going to come in after myself.

“Hopefully they will support that person as well as they have supported myself, which has been fantastic. The support the fans gave us was a huge influence in winning that (Carling Cup) trophy.

“To be perfectly honest, in most of the games this season the players have covered themselves with great credit. They have been a credit to themselves and to the football club.”

Added Dalglish, whose high profile signings included young stars like Andy Carroll and Jordan Henderson: “You cannot underestimate the pressure that is on a boy who comes to play for Liverpool.

“But in the first year, what they have done has been a credit.

“There is now a great foundation to build on and to move forward with. The supporters, not just for myself but for everyone else, have always been fantastically supportive of the team – and that should not change.

“No one should underestimate the role the Liverpool fans play - or the appreciation the players have for the supporters.

“Taking aside the decision made about myself, for four players to be in Roy Hodgson’s England squad for Euro 2012, and for Jordan Henderson to be on standby as well, is a great credit to the players.

“It’s fantastic for the club and those players –and I hope they go on and represent everybody well.”

Added Dalglish: “The fans will always, always stick with Liverpool Football Club and support the players and the team and the person that is to be the next manager of the club. That’s the way these fans have been brought up and that’s the way it should continue.

“For me it’s obviously going to be different, not being involved in the way I have been as before. But that doesn’t mean I don’t want Liverpool to go on now and be really successful. And that’s the same for anyone who now comes in to the club.

“What Liverpool FC deserves and the supporters deserve is far more important than me.”

Regarding the American owners, under fire from some LFC fans over the controversial decision, he said: “I would hope nobody would prejudge things now. The owners have their own reasons for doing what they have done.

"They came in to help the club at a time when it wasn’t in a great condition. They have improved it, taken it forward and are doing the best they can.

Steve Clarke is still employed by Liverpool Football Club… Which paves the way for a reunion with the special one!

Himself, Fergie and Roberto would be good craic in the one league.
