Why has this article resorted to such drivel.''Queen Benny''. Kenny Dalglish is one of a few managers that can give Swear Exlax a run for his money.He doesn't take bullshit off him,never did and never will.
MFG Excuse me for not bowing down to your undoubted awesomeness just yet when you are 21 points away from first place.The reality is that a lot of work needs to be done before you challenge for the title and it will not be plain sailing. Man City, Man utd, Arsenal and Chelsea are all a lot closer to winning things than you are so don't try to patronise me whilst at the same time making grand predictions about the future when you are only 2 points away from Everton.
To be honest; you cannot categorically say Man City, Man Utd, Arsenal and Chelsea are closing to winning things because only 2 of them are in the champions league race, Man City are in the Fa Cup finals and Arsenal are... in nothing at all, pretty much the same boat as us. Only a couple of weeks ago you were in the title race, now Chelsea have more of a chance of winning the title than you. I'd say that Arsenal have more work to do than us; considering if you look at the form tables since January we're 2nd behind Man Utd. The rest of the league are just lucky we got stuck with Roy Hodgson. I suppose that little angry outburst is frustration that you still can't manage to win anything. I'll give you a tip as to why that is... you have no fighting spirit in your team. Liverpool have extreme amounts of it; Arsenal.. No. They just like to play "Pretty football" get close to the goal and pass it in front of the goal face. Wenger has failed you, he's lost it, he just can't keep up with football nowadays. Next season you may not drop like we did; but is it really any different when you know you're not going to win anything? At least we know we're going to make improvements. Most likely for you is to hover in the top 4; never quite reaching the pinnacle; never quite reaching the finals of competitions. Arsenal: "Well we nearly got there, that's good enough"
I agree with that. RVF doesn't know what the word ''substance'' means.Substance basically is mental toughness,you need that along with style.Substance can't be bought,but style surely can.Liverpool have bags of substance and not enough style.Arsenal have plenty of style but no substance.Man United and Chelsea have less style than Arsenal,but they have more substance.For this reason alone,I believe that if Liverpool are to succeed,Its Man United and Chelsea they need to ovethrow.City,Spurs and Arsenal are just things you swat aside to get where you want to be.They are just obstacles,not barriers.
Skylarker. Excellent response. However the quote ''Arsenal fold faster than a bad poker player'' was excellent.Arsenal are like a team version of George Best,Incredibly talented,but incredibly gutless.
But you aren't 2nd behind man u, you are 5th. As we are in 3rd place that means we are closer to winning the title as 3rd is less of a distance away from 1st than 5th is, get it? I like the idea that you have more fighting spirit in your team than us, on what do you base that on? We have the tendency to bottle under pressure true, but you think you don't? You had the league in the bag during the 2008-2009 season but completely bottled it. You had some memorable victories along the way but when it came down to it you couldn't beat the teams that mattered. The next season you just gave up completely after a few shock defeats. That season showed you had a complete lack of character as only Gerrard, Lucas and Carragher really tried. The rest of your team gave up. Yes you lost Alonso but to go from 2nd to 7th shows an extraordinary lack of fight. This season your team also couldn't be bothered until you employed a manager who had such high status that the players would be called in to account for their performances rather than the manager, which obviously encouraged them to play better. So all in all I find it funny that you can say we don't have fighting spirit when you have such a lack of it that you don't even get in to a high pressure situation before you bottle it.
Really, got any evidence to prove that you have 'substance'? Or are you going to use some old cliches like you normally do when someone confronts your wild theories?
Substance is mental strength,and even Stevie Wonder can see Arsenal for all their talent have very little.They are so brittle, they are like Spurs in the 90s.I would even go to say Spurs have more substance than Arsenal.Liverpool have bundles of substance,what they don't as of yet have the style to go with it.That can be bought.The substance comes from guts,togetherness,team unity.Well at least none of our players are criticising the managers methods ie Fabregas.That shows not all is well at the Emirates.
There is optimistic and down-right deluded. No I don't think he's right.Unity and togetherness has been instilled by Kenny,and Munster as a Man United fan,you should know how important that is.Its an Alex Ferguson trademark.How else would he have got the poorest Man United squad in 19 years to the top of the league? Its the cornerstone of everything.The rest is easy.All he has to do now is get in the players and have them adapting to his methods in the same way the current players do.
1. The rest of the premier league have been diabolical. So although this United team haven't performed as they should (Not buying the poorest for 19 years rubbish) United have still been better. Hence they're top of the league. 2. Fergie knows his players inside out and knows how he can utilise them should there be injuries. A defence made up of midfielders anyone? 3. Yes, he's a great man manager who can get the best out of his team. So far, Kenny Dalglish could arguably be attributed to the third point. But only the third point. He may well prove the doubters wrong and bring some success to a team that is in dire need of it, but I wouldn't hold my breath if I was you.
