kurtramsbottom Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 I'm glad I was half-pished before KO y'day & even happier that I couldn't remember much of the game by the final whistle...but having watched it again this morning ,slightly hungover but functioning ...meh! Time to move forward ...I'd give Can the next 6 games in CM in place of Gerrard who i'd give the last 10 mins at home v Palace & away v Hull & that's it. <deleted> Mario off,tell Sterling he ain't worth what he thinks he is,take the deal we are offering or do one! Liverpool are like me walking home last night ,1 step forward & 2 steps back ...Sort it out FSG & Brendan please. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that's a longer version of what I said earlier, but bob called me naive Well maybe you should expand beyond your "net spend"record. There is no mention of "net spend" in stevie's post only that we spent a hell of a lot of money. Which you seemed to think spending 100M was not an issue as far as Spurs were concerned 2 years back, because you spent net nothing. You surely expected more than what you got, as did we. Rodgers may well carry the can for players bought, but we don't know how much influence the owners policy and transfer committee had on the profile of player, as mentioned in the article. Mr. alfie you should read the article too, you'll see some points relating to other major issues beyond how much money is spent, about the way it is being spent and type of player being brought in and why. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have taken him off at half time. Can should start in CM, but he was doing OK in defence until yesterday IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champers Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Are you talking Liverpool or Spurs? Just asking. Go and have a look at net spend....and if you find Levy has ever had a net spend of anything like £38m let us know. I'll get my abacus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devil Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 (edited) That is depressing Devil... King Kenny was sacked in a season he won the League Cup and got us to the final of FA Cup. I wouldn't sack Rodgers, but if we could get Klopp then it would be a no brainer and hopefully raid Dortmund on his way out It is depressing Bob, really depressing! Ive see some decent Liverpool sides and player over the past 30-40 years, just as no doubt yourself and other have who post on here. I remember when I didn't only expected to see us to win the league, win trophies but also be feared by opposition and consistently beat big teams in big games... but the past years have been a hard pill to swallow and we really digressed more especially after the Rafa period. Then seeing what happened last season under Rodgers and FSG with that mad crazy run nearly winning the league, the type of football we played which came from no where (given the first period under Rodgers was very mediocre) has warped all expectations and reality for me and made this season feel even more disappointing and I think some fans are not admitting this is the case also. Yes we should of spent the Suarez money better, Yes we should of bought 2 if not 3 top 'proven' talents and broke the bank on salary and fees to build on last seasons team, but we didn't,we've "invested in 6 or so potential players which is what FSG wanted and thought was needed. Unless FSG look at the recent disappointment, go and back the manager who himself has said a few times earlier on in the season in that we can't rely only on potential and youth we need proven quality. We have to look at the transfer policy this summer because another bad window I'm afraid will set us too far back. Right now we still can build on what we STILL have which is a good young side, before we start if not already loose the likes of Sterling, Coutinho. So here we are... (we have reached two semis and lie in 5th ) so we are probably on track when its all put into perspective right ?? Do I think if we brought in Klopp he would do a better job than Rodgers, yeah I believe he would (he's a rare breed of manager) more experience and would attract better players from Europe to the club and also he can develop young sides. I just think if there is going to be a change in the summer it might be that FSG may force a Director of Football on Rodgers to attract players if they are to spend more money. Anyway I can't see us attracting the likes Klopp as other have said and I can't see FSG or the club doing better than Rodgers as our manager as it stands right now, but for whats its worth just maybe if we are patient with Rodgers over the next few years with a better transfer policy and backing we might just get nearer to what we all want.
