The biggest poisoned chalice in football: England job or LFC?

i always think that Rodgers will not do very well at a big club..just a feeling i always get with him..hes got a group of lads over achieving(if there is such a term)

if he left i see them imploding and him being mediocre..struggling to contain big players....but i could be totally on the wrong planet with this one.

 

I don't like to defend Comolli, but Adam was £7m.
Henderson cost £16m, though. Downing was £20m.

I have it on good authority that he did convince Caulker to sign for us, though.
Apparently the Goons tried to 'persuade' his dad otherwise, but he wouldn't go for it.

 

then i recall the money spent on Bent and Bentley and i soon start cursing him again.

 

£20mil for Stuart bloody Downing, must rank as one of the great wastes of money in footballing history!

 

Downing on the left, Bentley on the right, Henderson and Adam in the middle, with Bent leading the line!

 

shudder!

 

I told you it was unbelievable! Downing at £20 million is the one I should have used.

Adam £7 million ? VDV £8 million Levy wins.

 

Carroll 35 mill > Ade freebie on loan

2 nil Levy.

 

if you fail in the loserpool job you only have thier fan's on your back,if you fail for England you have the whole country &press on your back

 

id rather have the whole country on my back instead of getting robbed every weekend.

 

The Spanish waiter is currently leading in SkySports' who should be the next Liverpool manager poll with 26%

 

Benitez might be a decent call, if a little bit risky.
Aren't they still paying him off?

 

It seems that Jurgen Klopp has knocked The Mousers back, too. Oh dear!!...

 

Both jobs are non entities these days and mean nothing to whoever holds them.

I suppose the England job provides a nice pension top-up, if you can stand all the Red Top abuse!

 

how did Comolli get the spurs job anyway? what did he do before he came to us? as all i remember was him being mentioned as a scout for wenger.

 

True Spain. I cannot see any knighthoods being awarded this time around can you? Sir Roy Hodgson? Doesn't work does it? Time was that both jobs were once loved by those who held them ie Bob Paisley but not anymore.

 

I think because he was credited with finding Kolo Touré, Emmanuel Eboué and Gaël Clichy.

He has certainly caused much damage to both Spurs & Liverpool. We had an excuse to employ him but what was Liverpool's. Americans who know nothing about football being badly advised perhaps.

 

Agent Comolli! the thing about Comolli is more the size of the fees paid for the players as while we all mock players like downing, bent and carroll, they aren't totally useless and have showed form at clubs so you can understand why they get rated but the fees paid are outrageous!

 

I was hoping that a Mouser would bite at my referring to John Barnes as "a 'Pool legend" but instead, I got you, Spurf!

I wasn't expecting that!
