1. We have some good senior players who have age still on their side. People seem to forget the age of johnson (28) agger (27), skertl (27), coates (22), enrique (26), henderson 22, lucas (24) Borini (21) Carroll (23) Suarez (25), Shelvey (20) This is something to build on surely. 2. We have a long list of kids with potential that the club have invested in heavily in the past 5 years, some of which are very close to the team. Wisdom, coady, flanagan, robinson, N'goo, morgan, ibe, suso, sterling.... Just to name a few. yes we let some go as well like silva and ince but that's the level of competition there is. 3. Gerrard is actually half fit and still our leader. While we've not seen his best for probably 4 years he's now the elder statesman and is there as an example to everyone. There is a case that just maybe he can have a swansong couple of years where he is less injured 4. just how many clubs win things each year? We WON something last year we are in europe, we have 4 competitions to play in and work hard for success in. 5. We no debts to worry about any more. Whether you like it or not we are not Chelsea and will not spend far more than our revenues and hiding the losses. We are not rangers playing on the fiddle and ending up liquidated. We are now, after the worst period of our history, nominally self sufficient and have serviceable debts that are not an issue for our growing revenues. The club has a future and we should always be thankful for that.# these are jsut 5 obvious reason to be optimistic brought to you by the Liverpool optimists society. (if you ever remember said group on old 606)
bt why ds br wnt to buy tereble english plyrs like Allan fs we shld by CAVANI, swap 4 joe cole + £20M !!!
I'm always fairly optimistic. We've got some decent players, a decent manager and now all we have to do is forge a decent team from the decent players and get some decent results. Hopefully starting tomorrow.
Nice post - tho for me you missed a big positive: We are trying something different, we have a vision of how we want to play the game throughout the club from the academy to the first team. I can't remember us having that since the 80's and who else in our league can say the same? Not many.
