They still have a very good starting 11, however their squad lacks quality in depth... Torres, Gerrard and Cole whilst quality players all are prone to injury and if either of those continue that injury prone trend liverpool will struggle again imo.
Be funny if you posted it on RAWK though ;)Chippy_boy said:spacecadet said:agree- when you look closely at Hodgson he aint got too a good a track record in English football. Disaster at Bristol City and Blackburn (who had big money at the time) then he has obviously had a couple of good years at Fulham 7th then lower last season and obv the Europa final (Middlesbrough have done that recently though). The scousers and English media seem to think he is some sort of Messiah- that he ain't in my opinion.
True, but we haven't got Mourinho either have we. Some of Bobbies decisions to date have been, to be flattering about it, "puzzling". Not to say fooking barmy.
I hope he manages to assemble a team from our multitude of talents, but as we saw against the rags and spuds at the end of last season, we were still woefully underperforming given the players we have. I hope he sorts it this season, but as they say, hope is not a strategy.

Abramovich has decided not to go beyond £50m and the fee will be at least £10m more............

Jeez 10 years ago, we were signing the likes of Bob Taylor, Gareth Taylor and now chasing Fernando Torres......pinch me, I hope I aint dreaming this.
Liverpool are a joke, were last year and are no better this, they have lost Mascherano (he will go, he doesn't want to stay and they will soon sell him), Kuyt possibly going also, Gerrard a year older and was washed up last season, Benayoun has left the Liverpool bench for Chelsea's and Chelsea's pernial benchwarmer and waste of space is now a guarentee to start for Liverpool.
Reina (good), G Johnson (good attacking, shit defending), Carragher (more fouls from him than minutes in a game), Skrtyl, Agger, Kyragounis (not one of them is top 6 class CB), no left back, signed some reserve team star from the SCOTTISH LEAGUE!, Reira has left, who partners Torres?, N'FUCKIN'GOG, we have absolutely nothing to fear from them.
Torres at Liverpool will spend 20 games out injured next season, Gerrard will do and deliver nothing in the big crunch games, Cole will play well 1 game every 10, Kuyt is a white Vassell, they over-acheived last season, skint and owe RBS over £50m by December next season, they are linked with players all over the world, for the same reason United are.....to make their fans think they can still compete with the big boys, fact is, unless the player is available on a Bosman Free or for less than £7m, they have no chance, and will need to be selling the likes of Mascherano, Torres and maybe even Kuyt in order to buy a few decent players and pay the bailiffs up in xmas time.
Chelsea, City, Scum & Arsenal will be top 4, Yids & Everton for 5th & 6th and Villa will be 7th.
