    If you honestly believe that you're a fool. I don't understand how you've come to that conclusion either, but if it's about the Talksport comment, I would NEVER in a million years want my club's manager phoning in to Talkshite. And I don't think any right minded livpl fan should either. It belittles the club. Did you see Wenger or Fergie or Jose doing it?

    I'm pretty confident he had a big hand in signing the Soton lads - our marquee signings, Lovren and Lallana were the biggest failures.

    But it's not just that - it's the style, tactics, philosophy, poor team selections, playing players in the wrong positions, defensively clueless, ego, easy to criticise players that he didn't sign.

    3 years on and there is little improvement.

    I think he'd have preferred Ashley Williams. The Balottelli signing couldn't have been his though.

    Well he's in total control of football matters at LFC so I'd say all of them, there are players he's enquired about but got ****ed off or our owners won't pay the wages required so we end up with mainly average signings.

    It is a combination of both. But ultimately the manager is responsible. How come the same players who gave up one Moyes, didn't give up on LVG? As for the CL final defeats to Barca, they were in a different league to us (figuratively speaking). Now, are you saying the same of Crystal Palace and Hull? When we lost to mediocrity in the group stages of the CL 3 seasons ago, then yes I will say Fergie was mainly to blame.

    Not sure he does. Balottelli for example does not suit the Swansea way/the style BR is trying to get at Liverpool.

    He says yes or no to them all, as the man himself said in the summer

    Nope - he wanted Williams 2 years ago but the committee (when they had more power) chose Sakho. Rodgers sulked and avoided using Sakho until Sakho got a good run in the side and simply could not be dropped.

    Rodgers then still wanted to replace Sakho and spunked £20m on Lovren because he was 'big name'. Lovren is definitely his choice. We were offered Lovren before he joined Soton but the committee refused.

    Agree. Just think, you had Lallana for £25 million, and we got Gylfi back for £10 million :D

    But he will have a preference and his own personal targets which pushed on.

    But it was that or nothing

    Remy fell through and this side of the fence looks piss poor organisation

    Our billionaire owners are clearly not fond of pissing money up a wall so you should expect changes at the very least

    Mayne not BR's job but at least how much say he has, I ont know

    I do not think BR is the man to take us where we want to go though

    I was very surprised you didn't go in for Bony in January tbh.
