They also brought in Ings, Digne, Bailey and Buendia for a combined £115m last season. Granted they made most of that back with Grealish.



Gerrard has now took less points in his last 22 games than Dean Smith did in his last 22 Villa games, 23 points v 24 points.

Disappointing defeat to most peoples favourites to go down, Bournemouth, on the opening day. Wouldn't be surprised to see their board pull the trigger on Gerrard if this continues.

I hope he does just well enough to get the dippers job when klopp goes

After what City put him through on the final game last season he must be spitting mad.

Pinning for the Liverpool job but it ain’t looking too good for slip n slide. Managerial level is mid table to surviving relegation at best. Step aside big Sam, we have found your successor.

Can’t stand the prick.

Slippy does that thing that she-ra and weetabix head do when they’re being interviewed. They try and look tough. I always find it quite amusing.

"We go again" !!!

This situation between him (Gerrard) and Mings could make or break him. Pardon the inadvertent pun there!

 

[Uncle Wally One Ball]

He is further evidence if any needed of just how shite the Scottish PL is

 

[mat]

Be a shame if he's sacked in the next few weeks.

He's picked a fight with a player the fans love. He could easily lose.

No, it shows how much the Rangers press hype anything to do with Rangers. This season we have had them signing wonderkids, great players, pieces of Gio’s jigsaw. The majority of hacks voted them to win the league. So far they have been fucking dire. Don’t take my word for it go onto FF. They loved he stopped ten in a row. Problem was, we did. He could tell Ange was taking him to the cleaners for the league so bailed. As he knew that would fuck up his hope to manage Liverpool. Better by obmverhyied is their thing. Then they go fucking ape when reality dawns and all these great players turn out to be no more than journeymen. Gerrard was part of that horseshit. Tragically a 35% win rate would only be lauded by his Rangers fans in the press here, down there no one cares.

He may survive and do well, but it’s the hype that’s the problem, not the league we have issues due to resources etc but it’s not as bad as you think.

Oh dear, they do seem to be struggling.

Hehehe.
