Time has flown by! I was thinking it must've been under Dalglish but, of course, they got to the final that season. Somehow.
Unlike yourselves, never known for dwelling on past glories... Hey, tasty matchup Saturday. I'd wish you luck, but...
Horrible to watch, I'd say, till the last few games. Man U was rousing. We were sloppy and often poor, but spirited and attacking vs. Fulham, in a fun game, and played excellent attacking football, I thought, for much of the Sunderland game. Hell, even the destruction by City could be called many things, but dull is not one of them.
Your board background backs you up, fair play. And you not dwelling on your recent successes is commendable.
We lost "goofy" for a large part of the second half of last season and the first 5 games of this season and we did fine. AVB hasn't settled on his starting 11 as they're all mediocre and he's having to accept that the £26m Soldado is worse than Defoe
Liverpool have already scored more goals this season than we're likely to score by the end If we get a draw i'll be fairly happy. They're better than us at the moment, the fact we are just 3pts behind them is somewhat of a miracle
Sorry, but we are a far better team, man for man, than 'Pool. Okay, so we don't currently have a player of the quality of Goofy - what team does? - but we have several with that kind of potential. The only reason we are not romping the league is purely down to the vast number of players that have come in. When United, 'Pool, and the others are frantically buying next Summer to rebuild their squads, our new squad will have bedded down rather nicely, and we'll see the mighty Spurs push on. I think, however, that we need to write-off this season, as far as top 4 goes.
It's a tough choice, really - finish top four and keep AVB, or miss out on top four and hire a manager who likes players to pass the ball forwards occasionally.
Unfortunately Liverpool do And Eriksen is going to lead us to Champions League glory this season. **** not being in it. We should pick a team and just turn up at their matches.
But unlike you, we've had a variety of significant accomplishments recently, including being a better team than Liverpool four years running. On second thought, that's nothing to brag about.
On third thought you ain't won jack in terms of silverware for a long time, so do your club exist for minor accomplishments or success in competitions? You had a taste of entering the CL and you think that's the be all and end all, well winning it tastes even better.
Our club exists for glory. We haven't won any in a long time, which makes two of us. I must have missed the part where I (or anyone else on our board) said entering the CL was the be all and end all. Or else you just made it up. At least we're agreed that being a better team than Liverpool four years running is a minor accomplishment.
