ok next season,yes i am looking ahead already.what can we achieve? ok man utd have probably won their 19th title and the top four probably is arsenal chelsea and man city(but i am not yet giving up hope) this season. Do we keep king kenny as our manager?(i hope we do)what signings do we need?and i mean being realistic if we dont qualify for europe?and how do we get back into the top four? This is what i think and please agree or be as critical as you want, whoever you support,but be constructive. when we play teams like (sorry)stoke wba bolton brum blackpool west ham etc etc we need to be getting points whether home or away and be consistant when we play teams who we regard we should be beating. this season so far we have beaten chelsea twice, lost away to man utd but beat them at home, arsenal at home, really unlucky not to beat them but got them away soon,man city away well that was bad but i know we can turn that around and we where unlucky away at spurs. i believe next season we will be ok,we will do well,with suarez(the next cristiano ronaldo)and i am sure andrew carroll will be ok.if you look at our team or our squard you will find it being a very good squard.i believe the top so called four had better watch out cos we will be okay next season.
Getting back into the top four should be relatively straight forward.If Kenny follows form and signs players for positions and doesn't make signings just for the sake of making signings.I'm 100% sure Kenny will be manager next season.I know people that have said it will take Kenny 3-4 years into challengers.I disagree with that.I believe it will take Kenny 3 years to turn Liverpool into champions.He could do it less time too.
Eastcustard. Go back to the Man United board and discuss how you are going to improve your squad with a ã10 million transfer kitty.Oops I forgot,Fergus has a ã160 transfer kitty.Only Wayne Rooney is stupid enough to believe that.
Pepe getting back into the top four wont be as easy as you think. I'm staggered how you almost take it as a given; we have no devine right to be there, and there are plenty of very competitive teams on the same level or higher than us atm. Like it or not United, Arsenal, Chelsea, Man City and Spurs are quite a way ahead of us in terms of squads. Getting into that five will be tough. I can see us doing Spurs if Redknapp takes the England job, which I think he will. I expect next year to be the same four battling it out, with us for fifth. Man U will find money from somewhere and invest. I believe it will all depend on what the owners are willing to cough up. In this league you very much get what you pay for. If we can invest heavily/shrewdly then there is a chance at top four. I will believe it when i see it. Kenny to remain. Hoping for a lot, not expecting.
You mickeys are well funny, challenging for the trophy in three years. NO CHANCE. There is no club left in england to stop us getting number 20 next year. ã160 is all we would we need to spend to win it yet again anyhow. You seem to forget we promote from our academy and unlike every one else refuse to get involved in paying big money for reinforcements. Maybe if you had more players like us who have been involved at Man United since 8 years of age you would be in a better position. The LFC way is you cannot win anything with kids. We have proved you wrong 12 times and counting. Man U the peoples religion. Liverpool are finished. Going back to next season I would say Champions League------ did not qualify Europa league----------did not qualify Premier League----------10th FA Cup----------------- Round 4 League Cup------------- Round 3. You know I am right I always am.
ufo only one person here has said we will compete in three years. Try reading rather than assuming. We do promote are accademy, Houllier sold all of our academy/British players with the exception of Carra and Gerrard. Only now are we starting to see people come through. What academy players are you redering to? The class of Ryan Giggs are all on their way out. And as for 'refusing to get involved in paying big money' haha don't make me laugh. You havent recently because you dont have the money *cough Rooney's wages. Carrick ã20 mill. Berbatov ã30 mill. Rio ã30 mill.
And yet when I tried to make that point I was a deluded Manc who couldn't accept reality... I'm not so arrogant to claim we're going to win the PL next year - predicting the title winner is a mug's game. After all, who can honestly claim to have objectively predicted Chelsea would win the double last year or that we'd be in pole position at this point this year? But you'll generally find the same clubs being there or there about each season. That's cos the revenue from the Champions League, not to mention the bonus of European football to attract players makes it very difficult for anyone to break up to top 4. You generally need owners with bottomless pockets, like City, or for one of the incumbents to implode, like Liverpool did last season, in order to get in there for more than a season. And the longer you've been out, the harder it is to break back in. I still reckon Liverpool will get back in at some point in the next few years. You have the reputation and the set up to attract the right players, and City and Spurs haven't exactly made strong claims for the fourth spot over the last couple of seasons, but I think it's gonna take a lot of effort, and possibly a fair bit of time and patience.
Swarbs In a few years.? Thats hope rather than expectation coming from a Man United fan.If Fergsuon doesn't get the funding he needs for an creative midfielder that Man United since 2009 have been crying out for and Liverpool strengthen in the areas they need strengtening in,and Kenny knows what those areas are.You can bet your life he will strengthen those areas.Then it could be Man United that drops out of the top four.I'm not saying it will happen it could.I'm not suggesting that FSG will blow ã250 million in 18 months like Man City to sign players just because other clubs want them.That would be stupid and secondly Liverpool aren't managed by Mark Hughes who is a complete and utter moron,and is shown up for what he is at Fulham,an incredibly poor manager.I just hope if FSG are as serious as they say they are,they do give him the tools to rebuild.Damien Comolli has said that this summer will be ''busy''. Its just my opinion that if Kenny gets to sign 5 players,two wingers,a creative midfielder a left back and a commanding centre back,he can take Liverpool back into the top 4.There will obviously be departures.
There's a lot of "if" and "could be" in your post. United may well implode next year and be the one that Liverpool replace in the top 4...but I wouldn't bet on it. After all, even without the creative midfielder we've been "crying out for" since 2009, we're still five points clear at the top, and we've had nine senior players out for long spells this season. How do you think 'pool would be doing with injuries on that scale?
You would need to seriously strengthen your squad to compete.Beating one of the current top 5 is no good if you then lose to a weaker side.Perhaps if you analyse which of your players would get into one of the said 5 teams then the relative strength or lack of will become apparent.And don't include Carragher as he's cack as is glen Johnson
When will it be indented into your thick head that enormous funds does not necessarily equal success? Look at your lots spending for example, I have to bring up your ã35000000 horse, that just as easily could prove to be a donkey. Whereas United have spent very little this season and sit on top of the league. Look at the facts, and shut it.
yea agree with some off your points here,but to call jamie carragher cack well i find that to be from somebody who would be jealous that he is not in his team or he does not understand football.in jamies career he has been a rock for liverpool and he has put in tackles and performances that any football manager would be proud of.so yes come here and make a decent quote but when you come out and say carragher is "cack" i really believe you need to look at yourself and ask why you would come out with a comment like that?
jamie Carragher is a good player for Liverpool but has not or never would of been good enough for the first team at the theatre of dreams. So arguably it is a correct assumption of Man U fans to label him as cack. Even Stevie Gerrard would of struggled for games at Ot because he would of never of got a look in with Paul scholes in the team. What other club in Europe would of romping home in their domestic title race when having NINE first teamers out for most of the season. These players will be back next season and the problem for you mortals is how can you compete against the Machine from OT. The thought must be frightening you alredy, number 20 in 2012.
Jamie Carragher wouldn't get in the Man United squad.Best laugh I've had yet.Especially when it has such world beaters as Brown,O Shea and Evans.Poor is not the word I would use for them...**** is the word I would use for all three.Thats exactly what they are...****. I suppose next,Darron Gibson the worst player to represent the Republic of Ireland since Eddie McGoldrick is better than Steven Gerrard. As for the top five being hard to break into.I do not believe that.Man United are 5 players short of being anywhere near as strong as they were squad wise,and seeing as they are dependent on rubbish like Bebe and Obertan and serial crock Michael Owen as back-up proves this. As for paying big money for donkeys.Man United paid ã32 million for Dimitar ''Can't run-won't run'' Berbatov.Thats not mentioning Owen ''I've played 3 minutes of football in 3 years'' Hargreaves.And there is Anderson whose only talent is to pass the ball....to the opposition. Chelsea are over the hill.Man City who on paper should be running away with the league,but football is won on the pitch not on paper are poorly managed. As for Spurs,they have made the top of the table due to Liverpool not investing in their squad,and Liverpool will turn the tables on them,when they do invest in their squad.I'm sure of that.
swarbs liverpool dominated in the 70,s and80,s man utd have done since the 90,s it will end and it might be sooner than you think.maybe it might be next year when you (seems likely)have won your 19th title and fergie thinks mission completed and steps down.the good thing is there is no other team in the prem who can dominate football like we and you have for the last 40 years.man city will never for all there money as will never chelsea. the good thing for liverpool is that when we buy players we buy players that actually want to play for liverpool unlike man city who only attract foriegn legions who want to line there own pockets,and when players at liverpool dont want to play for us no matter what reputation they have they will get bombed out(torres). we will be back that is off no doubt.
