Simple for me.the owners need to come out and say something on our season.if only to keep the fans onside for the summer. Here's to a new season of hope in our hearts. Buy well in the Window and get a togetherness into the squad and don't let anyone pass our ranks.YNWA

01 May 2015 09:39:08
Why do they need to publicly say something? Do you really think that FSG are happy with the way the season has unfolded, the talking will be done once the season has finished and Brendan either keeps his job or he's sacked.

30 Apr 2015 22:30:25
One of the long time readers but rarely posts! I am on the side that thinks a change of manager is a must! Opinions. And I know people don't like what ifs because history is history! If Brenda won us the EPL title last year but had all the problems of this year. Would your opinions be different? Even though I'd still be riding a massive high I can't help but think I'd still be thinking he isn't the right fit.

30 Apr 2015 23:40:26
He would have gained enuff credibility to warrant another year. As it is now and with the way the way he runs his mouth like a narcissistic lunatic in the media, one would think he had won trophies whereas he hasn't a pot to piss in. Get rid!

01 May 2015 08:36:12
I think this season shows how much Suarez, Sterling, Coutinho, Sturridge drove last year. he was no doubt an important part of that, but they also made team selection easy and may have been scoring almost regardless who was managing them. He also still failed on strategy vs. Chelsea and a few other key games.

Without those players tearing up the pitch, he's shown his propensity to go back to a style of football that makes little sense to me, made some bizarre team selections, switched formations like a schizophrenic and failed play to individuals strengths.

Time to move on, I don't think I've seen enough this year to be convinced even if we signed a few top players he'd use them right.

30 Apr 2015 19:53:36
Lfc have always spent big money (and failed while doing so) we have a high wage bill this is going on 25 years yes Rogers is the most recent to fail and spend loads (although a lot of young players may turn good) LFC need help we seem to fail in singing our big named players (sanchez willian ect) and over paying for the rest lallana markovic ect we need to look at successful teams ( Chelsea arsenal who are building a very strong squad even wolfsburg have a good transfer plan at the moment) so we need to strip the bad out and rebuild from our policy's and recruitment staff before we invest more money in players

We tend to splurge like a kid in a candy store. buy top talent as it comes available, not just the best thing at the time we have the money,

2015/16 TICKETING. WHERE IS THE LOYALTY AT THIS CLUB
My son Stephen (10065698) and myself travel to at least 14 Premier games and join the auto enrolment scheme every year. We have been on the waiting list for season tickets for god know how long. We travel a 400 mile trip every time we go and for this commit to you we will now be unable to see many of the games next season due to the 15 game rule. Further by being unlikely to see no more than half a dozen fixtures in 2015/16 we will fall down the list for future seasons until such time as we are offered season tickets.
This is an absolute travesty and a kick in the teeth for loyal supporters like us who all in spend around £200 every home game.
If there is any justice all of those supporters who are now missing out on the 15 game rule should:
1. Be give a 24 hour preference for unsold tickets for all games
2. All 14 game supporters this season who will now lose out, should be given preferential treatment whatever the ticket criteria for the 2016/17 season as compensation.
Listen, I understand the problems with a ground extension its time you gave supporters a bit back for the complete inconvenience caused.
We are getting punished in our pocket with kits now changing every season, etc, etc.
This cannot be right. We deserve some consideration otherwise what is our loyalty worth to this club who we support through thick and thin

30 Apr 2015 21:38:55
Don't buy the new kit then, it looks horrible anyway. but its a shame to hear of your woes patemondo.

30 Apr 2015 22:10:34
I believe more tickets are being allocated to Thomas Cook for that "MatchBreak" stuff.

01 May 2015 13:40:48
Are there going to be reduced seats in the main stand next season due to building works?

30 Apr 2015 19:06:40
Hi All and Eds,

i would like to hear your views on Sterling please . Putting aside his contract demands how do you rate him as a player as he is at this moment in time, i he was not with us what would you pay for him for the ability he has at this moment in time, not his potential because not all players fulfil their potential well a very few reach their potential, i would put him at the 20 mil mark and in wages 60k a week if that

im asking this because if we were to sell him we would have an idea of how much he is worth and how much other clubs would be willing to spend on him, another reason is because i don't think he will get any better than he is now that's just my opinion and i'm most probably wrong he might come on next season and take another step up in class, i doubt it, for me the only thing he can improve is his goal tally and his decision making, i don't think he will get better at dribbling or become any faster

what do you all think where he will improve????

30 Apr 2015 19:33:34
To be honest, what we all think we should get in Transfer fee for him doesn't matter one bit. I personally think he needs to sign a contract this summer or be sold to raise some cash to spend in other areas of the pitch.

Having said that, he is 20, very talented and pretty much every team in the PL would like to have him in their squad. He is also English and a full international who plays regularly for club and country. I expect to get big money from his sale if he is sold. Man City perhaps with them looking to freshen up their squad, is a very likely destination.

30 Apr 2015 20:35:19
I don't think much of him. I think at best he will be the new lennon? I know he is young and he will no doubt get better, I also don't like his attitude, the time when the behind the scenes program was on telly and he back chatted BR at the training session they had at Fenway park? No take what we can now before he turns into Franny Jeffers!

30 Apr 2015 21:47:03
Before the contract situation I wasn't his biggest fan

Now after publicly admitting he rejected 100 grand a week i'd be happy to sell he will ruin his career if he leaves I think anyway

01 May 2015 06:41:23
He's English, so add £10m onto whatever you think he's worth.

Like Torres did, he's underperforming and doesn't look interested. His agent has ruined his/our season with him.

If anyone bid £30m, I'd take it.

01 May 2015 07:15:24
I think Sterling is a good player and will continue to be a good player in the future. I just don't think he will be the great player that everyone expects of him. If say City were to bid for him and he left I wouldn't be all that disappointed if I'm honest.

30 Apr 2015 18:19:41
I know a lot don't see klopp coming but I think were in with a decent shout.

He's said he wants to manage in England

He talked of his admiration for Liverpool last summer (know it doesn't necessarily mean much but still he said it, and I'll take it that he meant it)

Our squad isn't really that bad just needs a decent manager so not like he needs unlimited funds

Arsenal, Chelsea or united aren't after new managers

City will be but he must know 1st bad season and guadiola is in

Can't see him going bayern, he loves the Dortmund fans and built them up so can't see him staying in Germany

Then all the other leagues (bar Spain) are pointless and the English league is the closest you'll get to the German.

30 Apr 2015 19:16:40
i have not thought about klopp coming to us because he will have better offers from clubs who are in the champs league and man city would be a massive move for him with both champs league and money to burn , he has belief in his own ability so with the money to spend on the players he wants i don't think he will be too worried about failing at man city its a better proposition than our club that is over loaded with attacking mids and with all the injured players who don't seem to recover ,example we all know johnson has gone down the pan but for me heis form only dropped when he started getting injured all the time then there's enrique is he still injured , and last of all there's sturridge need i say anymore , the only reason klopp will come to us is if he really believes he can takes us back to where we belong and that will take a few seasons and the right players not just world class players if he wants to take a project on then we are the club for him

30 Apr 2015 22:04:55
I to think we would be in with a good shout for getting Klopp. He's proven he respects loyalty, passion and commitment from fans higher than money etc at Dortmund. He knows and respects LFC and am sure he is aware that he will get this at LFC above Man City. Would he go to a team that would drop the first sign of a bad run or a team that has given BR funds, time and chances?!

01 May 2015 09:23:16
He talked if his admiration for LFC LAST SUMMER, when we were runners up and had qualified for champions league.
Has he talked of his admiration of us this summer?
Nope.
Did he publicly reject any interest in the Liverpool job last time we were looking for a manager?
Yes.

I think many are overplaying his admiration for LFC.

01 May 2015 11:07:07
Ron

He did publicly reject the Liverpool job last time but that was 3 years ago when he was building up Dortmund.

He wants to manage in England and which jobs are actually out there!

We may not be in the CL next year but the squad we have is capable of getting there the season after under the correct coach.

30 Apr 2015 18:07:08
For crying out loud Ings is not good enough.
We are still Liverpool football club.
Better players will be attracted if we want them.
Let's aim high.
Shoot for the moon if you miss you can still sign a star.

30 Apr 2015 19:18:31
i agree i don't see how Ings would take us to the next level and score 20 to 30 goals a season because that's what we need

01 May 2015 09:18:28
Well said. we already have a player like Ings at the club in Origi who are both at the same level right now and Yesil as well. If the club is serious about finishing in the top4 next season, then they need to go for a proven commodity. Signing another half decent and injury prone striker like Ings is certainlly not the way to go about it. Decent player no doubt but will not make the required impact at LFC imo.

30 Apr 2015 16:36:08
Not LFC related but R.I.P. Gregory Mertens.

YNWA

30 Apr 2015 14:56:22
heyy eds, Sad to hear that young Jon Flanagan has suffered another serious set back. will he still be offered a new contract or. ?

{Ed002's Note - See previous answers.}

30 Apr 2015 13:45:31
McNulty's done a reasonably fair article on our season on the BBC Sport website.

Interesting gaggle of trolling comments however as it was a HYS article!!

He still gives BR another season, but as Ed001 said, journos love him as he gives them so many daft soundbites!

30 Apr 2015 14:13:44
The situation is repairable for me - a couple of quality strikers.
Put a fully-fit Sturridge and a Sanchez in our side, and it would be top four no problem.
I did post earlier about the high press and the front three but it hasn't made it.

Liverpool's play last season was characterized by an aggressive first half press, get a goal or more up, then sit back and counter with pace.
Why oh why did we buy strikers not suited to this style. From Sánchez, who would have been perfect, to Lambert and Balotelli who are not.
If Rodgers truly did not want Balotelli that in itself is a massive credit. He is plainly trying to make the most of a monumental mess up.

To say Liverpool have not pressed is untrue, it just hasn't had the end result. Chances were missed, runs not made, no counter attack (can't think of many gods scored this year on the break at all), no long ball escape to overcome the counter press.

It has all revolved around the poor attacking options we now have. What was the best attack in the league to one of the least effective. That's a large part of the problem and will, I suspect, be central to Rodgers submission to FSG at the end of the season.

30 Apr 2015 17:52:16
Juicer

Don't know why people are disagreeing with you , I think everything you have said is spot on.

We've had the chances to put teams to bed but we haven't had the same bite as last year.

What went from a fast attack has turned into balotelli slowing it down and sterling whos shooting leaves a lot to be desired.

30 Apr 2015 18:50:46
The press is a means to an end, not the end.
Southampton under Pochertino were excellent at it, and I was very impressed with his Spurs team at Anfield, but neither of them are playing CL football as a consequence. You've got to have the strikers to finish off the effort.
Milner would be a good addition to the midfield to affect the press, but getting Sturridge on the park, Origi and one or two quality other strikers will make a world of difference to our play. If the money isn't there, we may have to sacrifice Sterling to raise it, though I really hope that is not necessary.

30 Apr 2015 18:52:44

30 Apr 2015 19:38:42
And what will BR give as an excuse for buying those attacking players who have been ineffective in the first place, The Juicer?

30 Apr 2015 19:58:49
Good grief, is it a case that 3 of you on here think repeating yourselves with platitudes towards Rodgers enough times will placate and make us believe your deluded attitudes?
Frankly, your empathy, with no concept of self responsibility in regard to Rogers suggests that you couldn’t run a piss up in a brewery! It’s obvious your arguments are based on nothing but sentiment and lack of ambition and little/victim man mentality. The guy is paid big bucks. He’s failed, so shall we just say “oh never mind, give him another chance”. Christ, if the world followed you 3, we would still be living in caves with the one eyed man as king. In other words you are talking bollocks.

30 Apr 2015 20:37:39
AG, I do not know what happened with the striker recruitment.
It seems Rodgers did not want Balotelli but the transfer committee did, so presumably this is some kind of democratic forum that votes on these things ?
The strikers apart (and I'm not saying that they are bad players in themselves, just the wrong fit), I think that we have bought well last Summer.
There seems to be agreement that it should be a top four squad.
Adding the right strikers will make a massive difference.

E-S, a collective approach has been put in place towards player acquisition so it is not correct to then blame one person for it's failure.
If you don't agree with my point about the strikers, what would you do as an alternative. Apart from sacking Rodgers which you, and others, also have repeated endlessly ?

30 Apr 2015 23:54:01
Juicer, you are wrong. Per Ed01, BR had the chance to stop the Balo signing like he did with the Remy and Bony signing but he choked and did nothing. He is a part of the committee you speak of and he has the final say on who gets signed and nobody has forced any player on him since he came here and the committee was only set up last season so blaming them is a cop out which means you must be listening to the mindless drivel he is spouting in the media. If the committee goes which they should then as part of the committee, he should go as well

30 Apr 2015 21:59:22
Juicer we could have Aguero, Jovetic, Kane, Drogba, but I doubt he'd know how to use them.
Therefore in answer to your question, if we couldn't sack Rodgers then we are sconed

30 Apr 2015 11:22:56
Ok I run an airport transfer company 3 x 8 Seater minibuses I do football away trips festivals etc I was wondering how much it would be to advertise my website is www sefton- travel

{Ed001's Note - can I have your permission to use the email you provided to contact you about it? That would be the easiest.}

30 Apr 2015 18:26:23
Why do people press di

30 Apr 2015 12:22:57
Hi eds, quick question do you see Klopp being a replacement for Rodgers? I can't see it happening if anyone to replace Rodgers I can see it being frank de boer its the only one I can think of, he's only the one that can come from Ajax and be at a club with more money and better players I also like the way he goes about football, just the thing with klopp he's not going to leave Dortmund which got better players and be on the same wage at Liverpool.
Also Macca thinks James Milner all but done so what is your view on that signing, I personally think it be a good signing because I think we missing a dirk kuyt and James Milner reminds of the same type of player don't stop running for the team.
Thanks eds hope you get back first time.

{Ed002's Note - This has been done to death.}

30 Apr 2015 12:07:29
I happy to hear that heads has started rolling, it won't be long untill we heared the news of the real culprit has also got the chopping. Kenny & Commoli along with Jen Chang was axed because of their transfer dealings and the Suarez saga, but we thank god that their transfer dealings were able to carried us last season to the dream land where people like BR has suffered a 'day dreaming disorder'. we will wait to see how it ends. to my honorable Eds, you made mention that Klopp is yet to be contacted, what of De Boer? i would welcome even Villas Boas.

{Ed002's Note - Chang went for another reason entirely. Liverpool will look to others when the time is right.}

30 Apr 2015 11:45:18
If. BR was successful and by that I mean premiership success at Liverpool, has he long term ambitions to manage abroad in Spain in particular. I guess if they came calling would he be loyal to the club or would he leave? I haven't read any indication of this either way on here and I guess it may be a moot point. I wouldn't necessarily trust him to do the right thing.

{Ed002's Note - I have no idea.}

30 Apr 2015 10:46:09
We all have to get real in r expectation of we're liverpool r right now, we can't compete with at least 4 teams in the the league financially r even professionally as the team has shown lately and earlier in the season .if we were a top team we wouldn't have so many players the manager doesn't like r trust the lack of fight in the team when the chips r dwn is the worse I have ever seen and how a manager can sit and watch as it is obvious the lack of strikers is unforgivable changes have to be made I don't know what they r but the current process is not working I would probably start with brendans p45 and put manquillo, Enrique, Allen, toure, ballotelli, borini, Gerrard legend going anyway, Lambert out the door money brought in r saved in wages can go towards players even just 2 top class players good enough to compete with top 4 clubs and my shout for brendans replacement is koeman.

{Ed002's Note - Liverpool have been spending more than the likes of Arsenal and Chelsea - the only reason the club cannot compete is because of bad choices over players and having a manager/coach who is light years out of his depth. Look for answers and not excuses.}

30 Apr 2015 11:28:57
Spot on Ed.

30 Apr 2015 11:29:49
The comparison with Chelsea is a bit milseading because they were abel to keep all their big players as long as they wanted to. We had to sell Mascherano, Xabi alonso, Torres and finally Suarez. Arsenal are more similar to us in that they had to say goodbye to RVP and Fabregas, two top players and still kept themselves in the top 4 (although not fighting for the title). As I keep saying it is not only about buying great players but also about keeping them.

{Ed002's Note - I know, Liverpool are so hard done by. There should be someone else you can blame for this.}

30 Apr 2015 11:53:13
Ah that's easy, I blame bob Pendelton, the Everton scout who took Wayne Rooney to Everton when he was 9. had we land him in our academy back then, the history would look very different.

30 Apr 2015 12:02:33
Not that misleading, they were able to keep players because the won trophies consistently. We finished second then if memory serves correct tried replacing alonso with barry (why he left) then replaced him with aquilini. Instead of adding the 1 or 2 quality signings needed to get us over the line.

Also arsenal lost Henry, Fabregas, Nasri, Song, clichey, and RVP as well as Bendtner & Chamakh-attack. but managed to stay in top 4, not spend money they didn't have, & paid off a stadium.

30 Apr 2015 12:39:06
We have had the money and wasted it for so long , I think it comes down to the fact that we can't compete wages wise with the other big teams.

The transfer fees haven't been an issue.

Top earners at Liverpool are 120grand a week say , but you go to Manchester and there on double that.

{Ed002's Note - Only a handful of clubs in the world have a higher wage bill than Liverpool - so why are Liverpool only ranked 40 some odd in Europe? It is another pitiful excuse.}

30 Apr 2015 13:02:39
Im not making excuses ed , we have had the money to spend simple as that which we have wasted.

But it also a fact that top earners at Chelsea,city and united will shadow that of our top earners.

Most of our wage bill Is wasted paying top dollar to players who can't even get a game , that is where our problems are.

No excuses just pointing out a fact

{Ed002's Note - Of the 41 teams ranked above Liverpool in Europe, all but 7 have lower wage bills than Liverpool. It is simply something else to look to as an excuse.}

30 Apr 2015 15:15:18
Exactly ed and 4 of them are in the prem sitting above us

30 Apr 2015 16:52:09
I would say that most of the 41 teams above us wouldn't be above us if they played in our league. Because they wouldn't finish high enough to qualify for Europe so therefore wouldn't get the points they get now.Or to put it another way if for arguments sake we played in the Dutch league I predict we would have qualified for CL every season and then there wouldn't be 41 teams above us.Don't forget we play in the hardest league to qualify for CL

{Ed002's Note - You can add that to the list of feeble excuses for this being any ones fault but Liverpool.}

30 Apr 2015 18:18:44
We simply are not punching our weight where as last year we maybe did a bit more although no Europe league helped us as well . We need to improve

30 Apr 2015 18:03:55
Sorry ed I will re phase my posts.

The last thing I want is my posts to sound like excuses because that couldn't be further from my thoughts.

If only all our recent managers had stopped with this obsession of building a massive squad capable of winning the quadruple and focused on buying quality rather than quantity, then maybe we wouldn't be in this mess.

Again you look at our squad and there's probably 10 players which we need to offload in the summer most likely losing money on them all.

We have had the money to buy players and blown the lot so instead of getting fringe players and paying then 60grand a week we should have looked at a couple of world class players and paid them the wages they want.

30 Apr 2015 10:12:55
Hello eds I'd like to enquire about how much it is to advertise on your site the Liverpool and Everton pages

{Ed001's Note - that depends on what kind of advert mate, try emailing us through the contact form and we can discuss it.}

30 Apr 2015 09:17:44
so basically beteen now and th first game of the season this is what we can expect IMO - at least 8-10 weeks in which nothing happene other than big names thrown to the air as a target for us to sign just to end up in Manu or Arseanl, the slow realisation and the following rage/despair of people here that BR is staying, brining in some players no one fight for with us e.g. Milner and Song, a youth player who never got a chance in one of the spanish teams 9probably for a reason) and maybe just before the transfer winodw closes a Danny Inge as some kind of big hope, making him in the process a small Ronaldo.

Also a lot of Sterling contract talk that will end up with him not signing a new contract but also us not letting him go (and sthis is the best case scenario for him).

All this lead to us arriving to the first game of next season as low in expectations, deflated and desperate as we ever were. Call me a pesimist but this is how I see things unravel in the coming months.

My only hope/request is that if all this happen people will stop arguing with BR and start argue with the owners. If they keep him in his job it is not his fault.

30 Apr 2015 09:26:19
If nothing changes, Ie same awful transfer polices and missing out on players and Bodgers still here then my opinion will be that it is actually fsg that haven't got a clue.

30 Apr 2015 10:07:48
Take off the rose-tinted specs fanobip.

30 Apr 2015 07:35:22
Why does it appear that you only need to be on the books of any semi-decent club and you're referred to as a "Star". Just read about some Real Madrid youth player, never played for the first team, away on loan, but apparently we're interested as back up in case Depay doesn't come, Marca have revealed Liverpool are weighing up a bid for the Real Madrid star, and they could offer in the region of €20m for the player.
How are there so many "stars" in the modern game?

30 Apr 2015 09:20:31
What a bargain, a star for 20m.

30 Apr 2015 09:50:08
Answer = Marca

30 Apr 2015 14:12:36
I agree we don't need Dennis Cherishev but he is a very good player. Far far better than Vazquez who we are also linked with.

Cherishev is having an excellent season for Villareal and creates a lot of chances with industrious play. However I feel all our attacking players that we buy this season however need good goal scoring records. Cherishev's is not bad but there's better out there. We need more goals in the team in all positions.

Vietto is certainly my number 1 choice of the realistic options mentioned. I really hope we get this guy.

30 Apr 2015 07:05:13
I think Klopp is out of our reach he is ready to manage a ready made team in the champions league not re build another Dortmand. The manager I would go for is Ronald Koeman tactically astute, would command the respect of the players & would draw players to LFC more than Rodgers can I listened to a interview with him he has learnt under the best including Cruyff at Barca so we would play good attacking football but have a sound defence !

{Ed001's Note - surely we should be going for a manager who has more than one good season? We made that mistake going for Rodgers. If you are going for an inexperienced manager, you need to appoint from within. That is why Borrell should have been appointed rather than Rodgers, he might not have worked either, but he knew the club.}

30 Apr 2015 09:48:53
Who would your realistic targets be Ed?
I agree with the poster about Klopp being out of our reach. I doubt he'd leave Dortmund to join us. I think he's destined for a bigger job at a champions league club.

{Ed001's Note - I would still target Klopp, no matter how unrealistic, he has gone on record as having a soft spot for Liverpool, he has gone on record as saying he wants to build a club for the future, not take over a finished job. Just go get him and offer him anything he wants! Anyone else would feel like a boobyprize anyway with Klopp on the market. Unless it was Bielsa, he would be attainable for sure, but not sure he is a long term answer, even though I love him.}

30 Apr 2015 10:28:33
Ed01 do you know if the owners are even interested in klopp? Yes we all think they should be, but are they actually making efforts to get him?
Thanks

{Ed001's Note - as far as I am aware no contact has been made by the club.}

30 Apr 2015 11:09:15
ED 001 out of curiosity,do you think what he said about building a club was a dig at Pep? a lot been said about him taking Bayern because of their dominance and clout. It did seem an easy option to take in terms of management. I was just wondering if there is any ill feeling there?

{Ed001's Note - it is possible it was a veiled dig, but then he would look a right hypocrite if he waltzed in to a similar role himself.....}

Ed1, respected German journo Raf Hoginstein suggested yesterday that Klopp would "find it very difficult to turn us down" and all that's preventing us from appointing him, as things stand, is his belief that FSG believe in Rodgers and are unlikely to sack him. As you suggest he's all but gone from the Liverpool side of things, and from the German point of view he seems interested, I'm firmly of the belief he's all set up to take over, although I'm not sure whether that's my head or heart speaking!

{Ed001's Note - like I said, he has publicly admitted an affection for us, so why would he not be interested. He might not take it, but FSG would be idiotic not to go and try and get him. If they make the decision not to approach him, then quite simply every one who is involved in making the decision not to try should never be involved in football ever again, as they clearly have no aptitude for the sport.}

Totally agree with you Ed001. I pray that the people they've brought in to conduct the review, provide advice, guidance and recommendations to move the club forward really know football inside out. And with that, understand that someone like Jurgen Klopp doesn't come onto the market often, and therefore must do everything possible to bring him in.

Imo, I believe BR (and he's really done my head in with his game plan, and interviews) had his day months ago, and that the only reason that FSG hasn't already removed him is because they don't want to bring in a temporary person, hence waiting till the end of the season. Personally, I think he should have gone in December, maybe LFC could have appointed someone from within for the 5 or 6 months!

Totally agree that klopp must be approached,nothing ventured ect,he has to be the most interesting option for any club in Europe particularly us after our season/his comments about LFC.Not trying to antagonize a eds because I really enjoy the work /humour you all put in but dare I say it I recently read a article that Bielsa's tactics had been found out in France and his team was struggling for results
