So that's four or five years minimum of mid table mediocrity JW's just committed LFC to

that letter could have been marwood if friday hadn't gone too well!
I don't see how Liverpool can go on and have a good season this year.
There are so little goals in their team. Suarez, as it's been noticed - finally, isn't a goalscorer. Great player but not a ruthless finisher. I've been impressed with Sterling, has looked brilliant so far, but how many goals will he score? Not many. Borini, for £10 million, looks like a massive flop. Not much about his game at all. Downing looks to be allergic to scoring a goal for Liverpool. That's all they've got in terms of forwards... oh dear.
Then, in midfield, Gerrard will get a few but nowhere near as many as he used to. Would be surprised if he reaches 7 league goals. Allen and Sahin won't score many - it's not their game.
No striker on the bench either. Strange.
Defensively I think they'll be ok, if Reina regains form. The 2 centre backs are very good, I like them a lot. Honestly, I'd be a little bit surprised if Liverpool finished top 8 this season.

KD's absolutely horrific waste of money on shit players leaves them in a position that they might never recover from. They had the torres money and some that FSG were willing to invest and KD completely blew it. Now they've shot their fat and they're fucked. They have high expectations and a decent team but they need investment if they're going to break into the top four and get anywhere and this letter seems to say that the investment needed will not be coming. I think they could have been in with a good shout at top four had they signed Dempsey and Sturridge, yet after 3 games it already looks like they haven't got a prayer
