I noticed nobody has mentioned Dunga on here, any thoughts?

No thank you says I. Dunga sets up his teams to play he type of hard nosed defensive football that made him a great player. But with the wealth of attacking options that he has I cannot understand why he does not play more like the spain's or chile's. So IMO he is not right for us.

ha this one made me laugh! Messi at melwood why would Messi move to Liverpool? We are doing awful, an might carry on being awful we wouldn't be able to offer him Champions League football, and the best player in the world deserves champions legue football , and finally if Ronaldo went for £80M then Messi is worth atleast £150M+ might sound steep but he is amazing , soo stop with the utter crap!

Hi my fellow red sufferers i cannot believe the owners, they have give us the spill about wanting to be up there with the best of them in the game and believe in the form of statistics what a load of bull because the main statistic is the manager and he has under performed in my stats chart since he started at my beloved liverpool i actually think john barnes would do a better job ha im joking but only slightly im just worried now and interested who they will sign because if they work to this theory then we could get some real shockers coming through the melwood door and i am not a 100% happy with comolli's position i don't trust him especially if a well mannered man like martin jol took a dislike to him then there must be something there i just don't want us to turn into westham with infighting over players. or maybe im over reacting u tell me u no how to vote

Why does everyone who places their best 'eleven'
include Carragher. He was always overrated and is over the hill. It really is time to bring in the youngsters. We are not going to win anything this season so at least let Wilson, Mavinga, Kelly, Pacheco,
Shelvey, etc get some experience. Even Suso and Sterling though a little younger should be put on the bench every now and then. I am sick and tired of seeing the same OLD faces failing every match. Any player that is going to be sold in January shouldn't even be considered for first team duty.

Like most fans on here I don't think Roy is the man to take the club foward. I will however give him credit for taking a job that many others wouldn't take at the time due the the owners. Its just a pity it left him exposed as a midtable manager and out of his depth rather than bringing the curtain down on his career with a bit of success. I do believe he will be gone but only if things get worse. While NESV are still "learning" they are smart people and will see the Prem table. They will not sack a manager when right now we are only 6 points from 4th despite performances (and yes I know 3 from 18th but we need to look up) but its early days. They will give him a chance once we remain close to fourth, a change of manager now could be too disruptive right now in what is turning out to be a very tight league. A new manager will have to hit the ground running. And lets face it, he will be working with more or less the same bunch of players, although he will probably give more of the youth a chance but heres a thought, what if it doesn't work out? He will also have new ideas and tactics that will need time.
As long as Roy has the team in with a shout of 4th depite playing crap football he won't be sacked.
As for his eventual replacement for next season it really depends on Comolli's role and what is to be believed regarding it. Is he the final say or is he not regarding transfers. Are we looking for a manager or a coach.
I noticed nobody has mentioned Dunga on here, any thoughts?

Liverpool are being asked for 63 million euro for Fernando Llorente. could buy blackburn rovers for that or pay a bankers wage for a year. this game is crazy. that means each hair on his head is worth more than a weekly minimum wage. £400 per hair strand.

They can't be asking for that amount as he has a 39mill Euro buy out clause in his contract.

I agree with the Andy carroll comment. I think he'd be great for Nando, just what we need. Chuck two wingers in the mix and we're in business.

Break the bank to get him, he will suit us down to the ground, and Nando will score millions down to him.

Does anyone else find it a little odd that mr Henry and associates go into investing in a sport they know nothing about and don't at least research the more simplistic aspects of their venture.After all even the basics of what makes the team tick, how to encourage top signings, keeping the the top players happy and also keeping us fans happy.ok lets start with the team to be remotely successfull in the prem you have to win a high percentage of both home and away games(not rocket science).and a quick look at Hodgsons record would reveal a lack of away game wins.this trend if it were to continue which his character(defeatest) and history(beyond cautious)would suggest, we would become a mid to lower table team and end up making our top stars wanting to leave and leaving us no prestige in which to entice better players to improve our lot therfore screwing us for years to come.no one will be happy and mr Henry will be less popular than hicks and gillette. solution get rid of roy now and get in someone with desire and finish this season fighting while there is still the chance to salvage something.

Yet again, another chelsea player cries off england duty with a serious injury only to be magically cured by the following game - am I paranoid or what? It seems to have been going on for years now but nobody at the FA seems to do anything. Whereas one of our players is injured and they have to jump through hoops to prove it.

{Editor's Note: Yep, I think you are paranoid.}

Bad times Stevie G out! But this is a real chance for Shelvey to shine in his more favoured central role, i not saying dump all of Stevie's responsibilities on the young lad. If i was Roy i would say ''i quit'' apart from that lol. I would say go out there and play with freedom and exspress yourself, and then watch the lad shine. But that's pie in the sky because Roy won't do that GRRRRRRR! !

Hodgson speaking about gerrard:
"I am not whining or crying about it. But if you ask questions like 'Can you cope without him?', 'Is it going to be okay?', 'Will everything be as good?' I can only say, 'No, it won't be.'
not a great statement by roy, yet again. it clearly states that roy has no confidence in the squad if gerrard isn't playing. yes, stevie is by far the most influential player we have, but to say that everythings not going to be fine without him is not only demeaning to the rest of the squad, but also very aggravating for the fans.
i would much rather he said something along the lines of:
?yes, to lose stevie is a huge blow, but im confident that we can still win our next few games without him, as i have great belief in the ability of my squad.?
anyone agree?
ynwa belfast

Thought about this and how I was going to reply, but I've had a couple of drinks - only a couple - and all I can be bothered saying is, you're an idiot - will people stop bloody well analysing his every utterance as if its A-level poetry. I couldnt careless about Roy's ability to 'spin' crap like a Tony Blair, he's a football coach you tool, i'd rather he just said what he feels to the press as quickly and as honestly as possible then got back on the training field where he belongs. I'm now going to turn this bloody thing off to go and have a couple more Jameson's before one of you idiots says something else annoying that tempts me back to the key-board.

. .With City preparing to take a £50m loss on certain players what do fellow reds think about the chances of signing Adebayor? Perfect partner for torres and would be around the £18m fee mark. Adebayor, Kranjcar and Ashley Young I think are realistic buys for either Jan or Summer?

Adebayor in a Liverpool jersey would destroy my soul! I have never felt so strongly about anything!

I can assure everyone that NESW are now one of the wealthiest owners in football.

There is a group of about 14 people involved all worth about 500- 600 million pound each.

All this talk that they cannot afford Mata is rubbish.

Why don't the fa just cancel the game against west ham, as i doubt that it is going to be very entertaining to see us defending a 0-0 draw!
so, i have thought of a way of , a/ entertaining the fans, b/ finding an eventual winner, c/ sorting out the managerial problem; d/ provide a spectacle well worth the ticket price!
so you give hodgson and grant a large spud sack each; line them up to the goal line, and the first to get to the other goal line and back, wins 3 points for the league, and keeps their job! a true sack race, now that would be entertainment!

I sometimes feel that when Gerrard is playing the whole team feel the entire game has to be played through him or they're in trouble. .hence tentative passing until it goes through Gerrard. Maybe just maybe if we play Raul in the middle with Spearing or Shelvey and Cole (if fit) off Torres with Kuyt and Maxi / Javanovic wide they may actually play with a bit more freedom and not feel the need to channel everything through Gerrard.
As for signings young and English seem to be the way forward! Personally I would be sniffing around Man City for Adam Johnson (unsettled/ bench warming) and Micah Richards (bench warming). Also Matt Jarvis from Wolves.
This would give us pace and width which we are crying out for and Richards is versatile and a goal threat.
Scatt Parker too but probably too old for the owners! What do you think ed. .I love Gerrard just feel he stifles the other players sometimes!

"I like most Liverpool fans am horrified at our position at the minute. But lets not forget a couple of things

1) we have a team that lacks passion
2) we have mediocre players in the toughest league in the world
3) we have had our finances drummed into the floor for the last 3 seasons
4) Our competition has invested heavily compounnding our problems.

Question - Did Man U come good within two season of SAF taking charge - No

Do we need a big name Manager - Lets look at our history, was Shanks, a big name manager when he joined NO, was Paisley No, Was Fagan No. Did we expect Dalglish to do what he did and lets not forget we were in 13th place at one point in his 1st season - NO. So lets do what Liverpool have always done best support our team, support our manager, support our club and eventually maybe not this or next we will get back to were we belong past our sticky spell and not just at the top of English football but the top of European."

I would 've agreed with you if Roy was 20 years younger and can learn and grow with the team, unfortunately 63 years old managers are set in their ways, won't change; and Roys way is not very good ist? He sets his team to defend and feels a draw away from home to anyone is a good result. his experience in the past 10-15 years were in mid table clubs , and that becomes the manager . a mid table manager.

And by the way most of the players we have are not mediocre , but most of them are not performing since the start of the season, and as I have posted few times in the past, I would've blamed the under performing players if there were 4, 5, 6 of them, but the whole squad is not playing to their ability , this tells me the problem is up above in the chain.

Dear ED

if roy gets the bullet (fingers crossed) who should replace him? ?
also how much is realisticaly going to be spent?

{Editor's Note: I am sure Roy will leave at some point. As for what will be spent, it will be driven by which players are wanted and the justification made to buy them. You don't start with a budget and just go and spend it. Targets will be identified and a case for each put to Damien Comolli and then I assume, with his agreement, a case put to the board.}

What liverpool should do in January
1. FIRE HODGSON, hire caretaker Kenny Dalglish
2. 3 signings: Arda Turan, Adam Johnson and Keisuke Honda.
3. Sell: Babel, Johnson, N'Gog (loan), Rodriguez, Skrtel
4. Recall Insua and Ayala
5. Kelly is 1st choice RB. Bench Carragher and Konchesky. Ayala starts alongside Agger. Wilson, Pacheco, Shelvey get more frequent sub appearances
Formation after January

Reina
Kelly Ayala Agger Aurelio/ Insua
A.Johnson Gerrard Meireles Turan
Honda
Torres

Despite the unlikelihood of Liverpool signing Adam Johnson, what do you think about this plan, Ed? Wouldn't it be a great idea if it happened?

{Editor's Note: The side looks OK but Dalglish is a step back in time.}

The rumours in spain r very strong for griezmann and guardado in el marca they say the latter will be signed in january and griezmann in summer and another rumour that i heard from spain is a left back called ramon canella might be a strong target for liverpool he plays for sporting gijon spainish under 21 international he has been recommended by our former assitant pako who is manager of celta vigo and had him on loan while he was 19 very highly rated in spain as successor to capdevila
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
I AM NOT AWARE THAT PAKO IS MANAGER OF CELTA VIGO. I BELIEVE THAT IS WRONG.

Francisco "Paco" Herrera Lorenzo (born 2 December 1953) is a Spanish football manager.

He joined English club Liverpool in 2004 following the arrival of Rafael Benítez as the club's new coach.[1] He was the club's Head Scout until the summer of 2006 when he went back to Spain to join RCD Espanyol as their Technical Director.[2] He went on to manage CD Castellón during the 2008/ 09 season. 2010- Celta de Vigo

So, no-one but a few people inside Liverpool Football Club know how much we have to spend or intend to spend. No-one apart from a few inside the club know our targets, yet Gerry Armstrong knows both our budget AND targets?

He's probably saying that based on what he (and all of us) have been aware of in the past few seasons under Hicks and Gillette - we were broke.

Now, it appears to be different.
===============================
ARMSTRONG HAS PROBABLY GOT HIS INFORMATION FRON GUILLEM BALAGUE. HE'S PROBABLY STIRRING IT FOR RAFA'S SAKE. IT IS WRONG. WE ARE JUST NOT TELLING EVERYBODY WHAT WE HAVE.

Will people stop suggesting our best players like Reina will leave and go to Spain. READ AND WATCH THE NEWS. The economic situation is terrible in Spain. The economy is on the verge of collapse. The euro currency could possibly collapse. The top 5 or 6 clubs in Spain are grossly in debt (far worse than the debt Hicks and Gillett piled onto us).
They will eventually have to reduce this debt, not least in order to meet new UEFA guidelines but also because the Spanish Banks will eventually ask for the money back and the whole idea that BARCELONA, REAL MADRID, ATH. MADRID and other clubs are above all the problems happening in the Spanish economy is not true. This is far bigger than anything in the past. So if anything the Spanish clubs will have to sell their best players to English and German clubs.

about as strong as we have avaliable.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Anyway, assuming this as correct as it seems to be a fair guestimate, I think this team sums Hodgson up. West Ham are bottom, we are at home and missing our midfield meistro. What a great chance to play either Shelvey or Pacheco, or both!

Also, we've been conceding goals with Skrtel in the team, so why not give Kelly a go in there if Johnson is fit again?

Also, why oh why do we even need a defensive midfielder at home against West Ham?! Poulsen is Poo. End of. My team would be. . .

Mr. George "Lend me a quid, I'm skint" Gillett; former so called. . and I use the term lightly here. . (ahem) "custodian" of Liverpool Football Club has been served by Mill Financial (remember them?) with legal papers requesting he appear before a N.Y State Judge to answer the case brought against him as to why he still hasn't paid Mill Financial the £74m quid he borrowed which he should have done back in August!

I had mention LUKAKU two days ago, along with honda, hulk and some left back. .its happening, gye has only 17/ 18 and already regular first team fc andreleht, he would be avaible for around 8-10mil,
and the thing which is giving us a chanse to sign him is that he can play for a first team straight away, which is not case with cheslea, real m, and who knows who else. .pace stamina, can keep posetion, and 17 years old, watching him every weekend. .he is really something, winger probably/ honda first choise, turan or mata, reckon he will be to expensive, so valensia would rather wait till summer to sell him, coz they have a big chanse to finish top 4, its just not same with mata or no.

So, no-one but a few people inside Liverpool Football Club know how much we have to spend or intend to spend. No-one apart from a few inside the club know our targets, yet Gerry Armstrong knows both our budget AND targets?

He's probably saying that based on what he (and all of us) have been aware of in the past few seasons under Hicks and Gillette - we were broke.

Now, it appears to be different.

One day the Liverpool Manager will pick the most dynamic team avaiable and endeavour to make it work , rather than deciding to be cautious and trying to pick only capable players whilst compromising others .

The LFC squad is such a long , long way from the necessary quality required to win the premier league and entertain the fans .

I AM NOT AWARE THAT PAKO IS MANAGER OF CELTA VIGO. I BELIEVE THAT IS WRONG.

Francisco "Paco" Herrera Lorenzo (born 2 December 1953) is a Spanish football manager.

He joined English club Liverpool in 2004 following the arrival of Rafael Benítez as the club's new coach.[1] He was the club's Head Scout until the summer of 2006 when he went back to Spain to join RCD Espanyol as their Technical Director.[2] He went on to manage CD Castellón during the 2008/ 09 season. 2010- Celta de Vigo

On sacking roy hodgson everyone keeps going on about get this manager in, get that manager.i think we should stick with roy because its not his fault there is a need of a big over haul of players at our club and the mess left by rafa is immense apart from torres and alonso reina just three out of a possible 28 players that r world class and one of them has gone now people may say mascherano but what has he done at barca so we have'nt even got a eleven players to build on so its not roys fault at all i mean the backline is poor the midfield has no creativity in it unless gerrard is playing and striking options r minimal at best so that is the reason for roys tactics he does'nt have the players to play the way even his last team fulham had so give the man a break and let him try and sort this mess out christ he has been at the club for 4 months it took wenger ferguson and redknapp a season or more to get the team the way they wanted and look at them now

What ever we think of Roy , we cannot change the fact that he is The Manager for now. We all need to hold out for January , on February the 1st we can all voice out our opinions , after we get a clear input into how Comolli and Roy work together on targets , and how do NESV intend to show their input. But for now , let's just get behind the team that's out there , after all weren't we the 12th man not a distant sight ago ?.

Ok just came on for a quick rant.All these average players we are being linked with are WRECKING MY HEAD.SWP, BRIDGE, KRANJCAR, C.COLE, D.WHAETER to name just a few.Do my fellow reds agree with me that all of these players are not good enough to work cleaning boots at anfield nevermind being good enough to wear the liverbird on there chest.Another thing annoying me is that some of the players we are being linked with are being rumoured to have preferences to go to other clubs rather than liverpool, why sign thes players, we should only sign players who want to play for this great club, LIVERPOOL THROUGH AND THROUGH.Also the hodgson situation, hes an absolute joke, not good enough to manage a pub team.He plays too defencivly, no man management skills and worst of all won't give enough youngsters a chance.I know NESV are rumoured to be searching for a replacement, nobody knows who but for gods sake J W Henry will you pleae HURRY UP.This man is draining the life out of out of the players you can see it week in , week out.What we need imo is a young manager who isn't afraid to take chances and plays the game proparly.Boas from porto would be my choice.I don't think there will be a new man in till the summer so we just have to stay frustrated for a few months.Cant see a change till then .ED who do you think is the best man for the job would you agree with me about Boas and do you think it is a possibilty to get him in.

I like most Liverpool fans am horrified at our position at the minute. But lets not forget a couple of things

1) we have a team that lacks passion
2) we have mediocre players in the toughest league in the world
3) we have had our finances drummed into the floor for the last 3 seasons
4) Our competition has invested heavily compounnding our problems.

Question - Did Man U come good within two season of SAF taking charge - No

Do we need a big name Manager - Lets look at our history, was Shanks, a big name manager when he joined NO, was Paisley No, Was Fagan No. Did we expect Dalglish to do what he did and lets not forget we were in 13th place at one point in his 1st season - NO. So lets do what Liverpool have always done best support our team, support our manager, support our club and eventually maybe not this or next we will get back to were we belong past our sticky spell and not just at the top of English football but the top of European.

For anyone who doubts what roy is doing to us. even the journalists are taking the p*ss out of him now. .read rory smith on our roy

This summer just gone, I bought a car. I don't want to reveal the manufacturer, but it was one of those old, revered badges that always make you turn your head on the road. True, they've not produced anything desperately brilliant for the last 20 years or so - other than one model which overperformed completely despite being tested against more expensive motors - but there's still a lingering respect, a residual gleam to the name.

Anyway, I got this car on the cheap, to be honest. It had been going really nicely until the previous summer, 2009, and had actually seemed to be getting better with every service since he'd bought it in 2004. It was running beautifully a year ago, the guy who sold it to me told me. Firing on all cylinders. Literally, if a metaphor can ever be literal. It was going faster than pretty much anything else around it and with an effortless grace, too. Moved up through the gears really nicely. Still wasn't the best car around, but a bit of tweaking in the engine and he'd have been flying, though definitely not literally.

The problem was that, last year, he'd had to get some parts exchanged. He'd not had the money to go to the official dealer - which are always overpriced anyway, he said, and he was spot on, or at least he would have been if this wasn't a metaphor - but he'd had to change the fuel injection, because it wanted to bring its kids up in Spain, wasn't a fan of high tax rates and they'd had a few disagreements anyway. He'd bought a new one, a fancy Italian one, but he wasn't quite sure where it would work and how soon he could get it fitted. He'd upgraded the driver side rear tyre, too, but that seemed like a sensible move, what with the homegrown regulations the DVLA had brought in.

Sadly, though, it didn't quite work. When he first drove the car after coming back from holiday in 2009, it spluttered a bit when he turned the ignition on and it just couldn't get going. Every time he thought he was getting somewhere, a piece fell out, or broke, or tore an adductor, and it started struggling again. He said he'd made a few mistakes along the way, too, including telling some of the more important parts that they really should start behaving like important parts and taking it to Reading, while he had a bit of a habit of driving through potholes.

So I bought it off him. I replaced some of the parts, too, though I kept hold of the most important ones, even if one had to leave because its wife couldn't settle here. The ones I bought were all of my own choosing, though, even if I did accidentally buy two fanbelts but forget to mend the steering wheel. The guy who sold it to me said it maybe wouldn't be able to get up to 100 miles an hour without major, expensive surgery, but that it should certainly be capable of going fast enough to get it to Europe, though probably not the nice bits. Now, though, it just won't go at all. It's barely moved for the last couple of months. I've driven it very badly, none of the parts are working and I've put a couple of them in the wrong place. The passenger side rear tyre, for a start, is completely bald. It's a diesel engine, but I'm running it on petrol, just to see how it goes.

Yet, to be honest, I think it's the previous owner's fault. I mean, how can I expect to drive it well when it wasn't perfect in the first place? If he'd left it in a better state, I wouldn't have had to buy all those new parts, which just don't work. True, he wouldn't have sold me the car, but that's by the by. Of course, it's a bit of a puzzle why a car that could do 70mph last year can only do 19 now, but that strikes me as being because of the changes he made two years ago, not the ones I made this summer, or the way I've put the car together. Definitely. It's his fault. I'm doing the best I can, under the circumstances, really


Sorry its so long. but this just demonstrates that even people within football can see how roy just isn't doing it. by whatever criteria you want to use. The position we find ourselves in is that we bought faulty goods, the shop won't take them back, and we are now stuck with the cost of replacing something that doesn't work!

On sacking roy hodgson everyone keeps going on about get this manager in, get that manager.i think we should stick with roy because its not his fault there is a need of a big over haul of players at our club and the mess left by rafa is immense apart from torres and alonso reina just three out of a possible 28 players that r world class and one of them has gone now people may say mascherano but what has he done at barca so we have'nt even got a eleven players to build on so its not roys fault at all i mean the backline is poor the midfield has no creativity in it unless gerrard is playing and striking options r minimal at best so that is the reason for roys tactics he does'nt have the players to play the way even his last team fulham had so give the man a break and let him try and sort this mess out christ he has been at the club for 4 months it took wenger ferguson and redknapp a season or more to get the team the way they wanted and look at them now

Gods sake. where do i start
1; stick with roy cos not his fault. . he was not left with useless players as everyone seems to be alluding to. if he had any tactical sense, or a degree of motivational skills we wouldn't be in the mess we are.
2; hard to believe. but you don't just win a match with world class players. you also need people who are prepared to work selflessy for the team. and that comes from utilising the players we have in their best positions!
3; a blind man could have seen our striking options were limited to say the least. so what did roy do. who did he buy. count how many strikers he bought
4; let him try and sort the mess out;. .what possibly gives you any hope he is capable of sorting it out. he plays players out of position, he is one of the most singleminded defensive managers i know, he has an innate ability to say completly the wrong things at press conferences, he has managed to alienate most of the players. gods sake how much more proof do you need that this man is out of his depth.

How long do you want to give him a chance for. when would you make the change. when we are hovering over the relgation zone with no hope of a top table finish. maybe you would like us to be heading to the championship. aaahhh but we stuck with him, gave him a good go.
It will be too late then,

As for the fulham jibe. do you not consider that we are turning into fulham mark 2 day by day. He plays so deep its unreal. watch him when players go forward. waving them back like a mad thing. he plays 2 banks of four and wants everyone to hoof it up to torres in the hope he can do something all by himself.

Keep on like this and we may as well just put 11 goalkeepers out and be done with it.

The boy we r being linked with griezmann is a real talent i watched the france under 19's win the under 19 tournament last summer in france he will be a steal if we can get him very exciting player great ball control fast and an eye for a goal and works hard and during the tournament he and mavinga were excellent and a tip to roy why don't u start mavinga and wilson because wilson proved at rangers he is a brilliant CB better than skrtl the thing that makes me laugh about skrtl signing was that we scouted him in russia and man utd scouted vidic that's how good our scouts have been hopefully that will improve in the future

If it is correct that a number of important players are fed up with the disasterous Hodgson.

Throw the game against West Ham.

It won't make a great deal of difference to the season but it will get rid of a man who wants to change Liverpool into Fulham.

Hodgson is stuck in the past and thinks small time.

How much longer can this small minded, second rate attitude go on ?

Come on NESV, do something!

I think there is a massive difference between shining in the reserve games and being ready for the 1st team. I'm talking about Pacheco. He should be getting 15 minutes here and there for sure. .however, our form has been so poor that we haven't found ourselves confiortably winning in games to give untested youngsters some game time.

I like Pacheco and think he can develope into a brilliant player. But he certainly isn't ready to be a 1st choice player week in week out.

Of all the youngsters it is Spearing, Ecclestone and Amoo who appear to be closest to challenging.

SEEWPER! WOW is that a new position? like a cross between a winger, a striker and a keeper.

I agree with Ed, Torres is injury prone, and untill we can kep him fit to play every game without resting, he will remain at 35-45 mil max. But knowing Hodgson he'd bring in someone carp to replace him. Luckily Commoli (spelling) is here to sort us out.

Former Liverpool owner George Gillett is currently is being sued over a loan agreement connected to his previous stakeholding at Anfield.

Mill Financial, who had alleged last month that they had agreed a deal for Tom Hicks' shares in the Reds before the New England Sports Ventures (NESV) takeover, have filed a lawsuit alleging that the former Montreal Canadiens owner owes them $117million (£72.7M).

A complaint filed in yesterday in Manhattan's New York state court claims that holding company Gillett Football LLC borrowed $70million (£43.5M) in January 2008, around the same time he and Hicks secured a £350million loan from the Royal Bank of Scotland.

Believe me if you wish, Mr Pacheco is highly rated but he is just not reaching his high standard, wether this is down to the dislike of the boss only he knows, and concerning Rushie recommending to play him out wide this is rubbish as Rushie stays at the academy and hardly ever goes to melwood i have this from someone who is involved with the first team not a player.

Yet more proof that ROY is not up to it.Kranjcar at 1.5M that SPURS paid for him may have been a good deal, a year on and we are willing to pay 8M is just crazy, for a player who can't get in their first team.So why is he good enough for us?Harry will be rubbing his hands M OWEN style with this deal.Let him go to EVERTON were they are happy with mid table life.

{Editor's Note: I don't see how you can relate this to Roy Hodgson not being up to the job at all. If we are interested in Kranjcar, and if we are willing to pay £8M for him (and that is a really big "if"), then the fault should be laid at the door of the person responsible for transfers - Damien Comolli.}

Ed from what has been said on here and elsewhere it sounds like Aggers days are numbered. As for Gerrard, I would never get rid of him although I do understand what this guy was trying to say. When Gerrard plays everyone else takes a back seat and expects Gerrard to do it all. If he wasn't there then other players would have to step up to the plate. If Gerrards injury is a bad one, and I hope it's not, then these background players will need to step forward anyway.

Does anyone know the current situation regarding Cassano at Sampdoria? - I heard recently that, due to his behaiviour, the club were looking to terminate his contract, but I have not heard anything since.

If it does turn out he is being released, he would be ideal for Liverpool and we should push the boat out to sign him - Despite his long history of off fields issues, no-one can doubt the lad has real quality on the pitch, and we should take the risk - If we get him for free and he causes issues, we can look to ship him out, quite possibly making a significant profit - cannot see how we could lose !

Can someone please give us hope, and tell us that Roy's days are numbered? How can he possibly motivate his players when he tells the fans to expect more defeats! Sorry Roy, you're not cut out for the job.
This is probably not the only problem. If you remember, what Aquilani said was that Roy told him that he is in his plans, and then all of sudden, he was available for loan. . He told Pacheco to wear No.12 and showed him that he has some kind of place in 1st team. . Then, what happened Pacheco back to reserves. . He brought Dalla valle to first team and then. . He has made various stupid decisions, else than this. . He commented on Rafa and had to apologise later. Same goes with his comments on Johnson. . he was buying a striker, that never happened. . Lots more, to come, if you try and remember what he has done, so far. .

In response to:
"What on earth is Roy Hodgson doing! Every day there are rumours about unhappy players! His managed to upset Pepe Reina, Torres, Agger, Johnson and now Dani Pacheco wants to leave as well. He got rid of 2 of our better players Insua and Aqualani. ."

The theme of your post I fully agree with my friend. But to claim that Insua is one of our better players? ?

If that was true then we are seriously hc*ked!

He's slow and can't defend. End of.

Frenchy.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
You maybe right there mate! But his still better than Konchesky, his younger and at least he can pass and cross the ball! And given time he will improve defensively.

If he had replaced Insua with, Fabio Coentrao I would have said fair does! Thats a better player.
Our only other alternative is a very injury prone aurrelio!

But we paid £4.5M to much for POULSEN in the first place, and this is the problem with ROY he is happy to fill the team with over the hill players.So may be you will get your wish as Santa Cruze fits that bill.

He needs to start buying 1 or 2 worldclass players and pushing the kids

If we lose players like PEPE AGGER TORRES, and replace them with players like GIVEN SHAWCROSS C COLE we will be back to the GS era.

Santa Cruz for only £4m would be a good signing considering we payed £500,000 more for Poulsen

Pacheco isn't good enough, simple enough. we may think the future is bright, but our youth isn't half as good as we think it is. We have a few rough stones that may be nurtured into diamonds, but other than that our academy is fairly poor. However, maybe we only need 3-4 quality academy products per generation? What do you think?

Begin the debate, i expect to get a few responses from this one. I apologize ahead of time if i come across as rude, but it is just my opinion.


How do you know Pacheco isn't good enough? If you watch the reserve team games he's quality, he needs a run in the first team but as we know Roy won't do this. If he can't get a get at Anfield I would certainly send him on loan to an English team to see how he does but no way would I sell him

"Surely, you don't want Rafa back!"

Definately not but for goodness sake man he was better than Hodgson! Please NESV get rid of this muppet RH as soon as possible.He is killing every thing we have been proud of.The club under R H has become a laughing stock.

Hi Ed, what do you think of benzema?

{Editor's Note: Not a player who I have ever taken a liking to. There are still the off-field issues to put to bed and Real Madrid would like to recoup as much money as is possible. I think Manchester United may still be interested, but not until the summer.}

There are plenty of players in the LFC reserves that are capable of making an impact in the premier league , given the chance .

Martin Kelly has demonstrated he may be just as good a defender as had ever been brought through the LFC youth system . Nathan Eccleston can finish , has skill and great pace , and there are others that can be a real handful for most opposition .

Too much pressure and expectation is being thrust upon the youth comming through! remember shelvey was in the back yard of chelsea, west ham, fulham, spurs, arsenal and even qpr with their money and ambitions and none of them wanted him! yea they showed interest but that was all so let them mature

In response to:
"What on earth is Roy Hodgson doing! Every day there are rumours about unhappy players! His managed to upset Pepe Reina, Torres, Agger, Johnson and now Dani Pacheco wants to leave as well. He got rid of 2 of our better players Insua and Aqualani. ."

The theme of your post I fully agree with my friend. But to claim that Insua is one of our better players? ?

If that was true then we are seriously hc*ked!

He's slow and can't defend. End of.

Roy Hodgson has decided he needs his type of players! So out will go Pepe Reina and he will be replaced by Given. He also feels Nando cannot hold up the ball for long enough so he will sell Nando and get Carlton Cole in to do a job. He will also replace Pacheco because he is to small and raid his old club for Bobby Zamora, to play of Cole. Hodgson feels that Glenn Johnson is to much of a liability because he plays to far up the pitch so he will sell Johnson and buy Luke Young and finally he will sell Daniel Agger because he doesn't like him carrying the ball so far into opposition territory and replace him with David Wheater! Now that's a Roy Hodgson type of team

Ed I'm going to ask a hard question that I feel needs to be answered. Do you feel that Liverpool fans (which I am a staunch one of) have unrealistic expectations with the club in it's current state? Furthermore do you feel Liverpool fans have a bit of a false sense of entitlement when it comes to what the owners, board and team should be doing with the club? I think it's legitimate to ask these questions considering the state of negativity most fans seem to be in.

{Editor's Note: It shows that the fans care about their club - clearly more so than fans of other clubs. The unrealistic expectations are almost exclusively surrounding money - nothing else.}

So Liverpools fans, are you all getting ready to welcome back Rafa with open arms?!
"In Rafa We Trust."
It doesn't too hot for him at Milan at the moment.
"In Rafa We Don't Trust!"
So the fans continue to jump on RH.
Why?
So what if he has upset Johnson.
I wonder what the editor thinks of him?
He was bang on with Agger, but Johnson. . ? ?
I don't know about the fans ganging up on RH.
Try saying a few words about England, and their handling of SG.
What have you got to say about that?
"In SG We Trust." You're damned right.
So for the sake of sanity please, please please stop banging on about RH.
Give the guy a chance.
Surely, you don't want Rafa back!

To those who say they don't want Kaka, are you mad? IF we could afford both fee's and salary (which we would recoup in shirt sales for sure mostly!) I say don't waste any time - do it, he is - along with Stevie G - one of the best attacking midfielders in the game. Would also get a good 4 years out of him and he is recovering a bad injury but certainly not injury prone. However, still can't see it happening unfortunately. Eds what do you think about my comment please?

Senior players at lfc dissilusioned with woy. They will leave in the summer if the club finish below 7th. Will look to win silverware elsewhere. Even a change of manager won't matter. No decent player will want to join or remain at a club that constantly promises to deliver silverware but never actually delivers. Lookin at 3 seasons at least before lfc are a force again and anyone who thinks reina, torres etc are goin hang around that long needs to be realistic. Loyalty will only last so long. The desire for silverware soon becomes more important as a players carreer moves on and that is why reina, torres and gerard will want to move to new clubs before long. Maybe even this summer if the right offer comes along.

What on earth is Roy Hodgson doing! Every day there are rumours about unhappy players! His managed to upset Pepe Reina, Torres, Agger, Johnson and now Dani Pacheco wants to leave as well. He got rid of 2 of our better players Insua and Aqualani and bought in players who are not only older but a lot worse, Konchesky and Poulsen (I thought the liverpool way was we bought in players who would improve us). Not one of his buys, Meireless included have made us any better, what's he gonna do in Jan? Sell Johnson, Pacheco et al and buy some more has beens? Is Hodgson deliberately trying to bring liverpool to it's knees? His tactics are shocking, long ball to Nando from the defenders with no one within 30 yards of him, we play to deep and without width because he inverted wingers! We are so boring to watch now! NESV must see what he is doing! Why can't they just sack him!

As Gerrard is out for approximately four weeks, this is the perfect opportunity to play Daniel Pacheco, he needs to be given the chance not poulson !"

Well if it's ever going to happen it'll be against WH. Their midfield isn't strong so there's really no need to fill the middle of the park, any central pairing out of Lucas, Meireles, Shelvey, Cole and Spearing should be able to handle it. So long as it's not hit and hope football i'll be pleased no matter who's on the pitch. {ed's note - Lucas is suspended.}
