I've not watched so much rubbish football from LFC than I have over the last 2 seasons.

It all went wrong when we let players like Riise, Hyypia, Finnan, Murphy, Alonso, Arbeloa, Crouch & Bellamy to go.

At the time you think its best for them to leave with the hope that they will be replaced with something better. Then we get players incapable of holding down a first team place and being shipped out in the following transfer window.

I don't want us to be like Man City and buy anyone and everyone (Strikers at one point were: Tevez, Jo, Robinho, Santa Cruz, Bellamy, Balotelli, Adebayor etc) soon to be Dzeko, but at least lets have 2 proven strikers who show some class and a couple of youngsters on the bench who can change it.

FFS we used to have Sinama-Pongolle & Cisse on the bench. Now we have. .

Carlton Cole would be a TYPICAL LFC signing at present. He will not fit in, play terrible and be transfer listed come next summer!

Hopefully this saga will soon come to an end and Roy will either resign or be removed from his post.IMO his main problem has been that he hasn't understood the club and the fans.After all we are unique. He has had more support from the fans than he deserves and his latest comments smack of him still attempting to blame others for his own short comings. Let's just hope that NESV appoint the right man for the future, if it means giving the job to Kenny in the short term then fine by me. If this group of players can't play for a legend like him who has been there , done it and bought the T Shirt then they shouldn't be at the club. I feel the players need to take some of the blame as well because some (not all) of them are lacking passion and commitment and are playing as if to get Hodgson the sack. ed - do you know what sort of compensation package he would get if sacked

stu {ed's note - I don't know how much it is, but it would probably be along the lines of paying up his contract, which has another season to run, I believe, after this one. So 18 months wages.}

"{ed's note - I don't know but personally I wouldn't like Comolli to have that much influence, I am very dubious about him.}"

A couple of weeks ago I posted about Comolli not being the kind of messiah that many on this site think he is. he is an average scout with decent contacts and not many managers get on or respect him. - I was slaughtered .
I also think people expect too much out of NESV , they won't spend big money, and to their credit, they have never said otherwise. I don't expect much to happen till summer, when the situation will be forced upon them to respond to where ever we finish down the table.

Ano every player last night was terrible but DIRK KUYT is a joke. Ye he runs his arse off but as a die hard liverpool fan with or without his wages id run round that pitch for 90 mintues if i had the chance to play for liverpool. He's scored some important goals i'll give him that but when it comes to playin football, he just cant. Id sell him in a heartbeat if we recieved any offers for him this window. Wishful transfers, Coentrao. The cheer that went round Anfield last nite when Koncheskey got taken off somes it up, S* *e . Id bring in a RB (not sure who)and push Johnson to RW. Obviously theres a lot of talk about Honda and i'll be happy if he joins and as for a striker, we need 1 of Suarez, Llorente, Hulk, Falcao and i know theres probably no chance but Aguero. We need 4 quality signings otherwise there's a possibility we could go down with the way this season's going and i never thought id say those words. Oh and all these idiots wanting BENITEZ back are crackpots and need there heads testin. Ano woy is a terrible manager but Rafa left this club in a state

Regardless of who the manager is the fans need to get Anfield rocking. As Roy is unable to motivate the players, the fans need to show their support of the team in each game not just the so called big games. Players will respond to fans getting behind them, so come on lets get that famous Anfield support rocking in every game and for the whole game.

Hi all,

Just did a few number on managers mentioned on this site. have a look at stats based on english league teams managed only. ie spanish, italian, scottish club and international not included.

Reason being liverpool needs a manager with experience in english league and be able to communicate correctly with players, understanding the history, passion the fans have within the club.

Owen Coyle games 161 won 64 draw 41 lost 56 = 39% win ratio. . . . Martin O Neill 545 w 226 d 167 l 152 win ratio 41%. . . . . Sean O Driscoill 558 W 211 D 159 L 188 Win Ratio 37%. . . . .Martin Jol 148 W 67 D 38 L 43 Win Ratio 45%. . . Sam Allardyce 731 W 293 D 195 L 243 Win Ratio 40%. . . . Ian Holloway 673 W 258 D 189 L 226 Win Ration 38%. . . .King Kenny 570 W 312 D 144 L 114 Win Ratio 54%. . . .Roberto Di Matteo 128 W 66 D 29 L 33 Win Ratio 51%. . . . Chris Hughton 88 W 43 D 29 L 33 Win Ratio 50%. . . Rafa 350 W194 D 77 L 79 Win Ratio 55%. . . Now our current manager 238 W 87 D 63 L 88 Win Ratio 36% need i say anymore bout Roy!

Anyway fans i wanna know what you think based on stats below how do feel on this matter. do we need to look aboard or can any one suggest. I want Roy gone aswell but who should we be looking at if the new owners say they want to hear what fans want. {ed's note - you have to take into account the teams they manage and the division the team plays in compared to its budget. The reason I like O'Driscoll, for instance, is that he manages on a tiny budget to keep Doncaster challenging for promotion every season, he worked wonders with Bournemouth as well. O'Neill, on the other hand, has always had a decent budget to work with and if the budget isn't there he walks.}

If NESV were watching and listening last night to the fans cries, they would of heard and seen how we as a club feel regarding our team. If Roy is the right man for the job then last night there were def signs that there is something wrong regarding team spirit, tactics, morale we all know Roy got his tactics wrong as there was no balance to the team which most liverpool fans could see, when the team was named, now you do not need to be a football coach to recognise that, But Roy didn't see this and we suffered, personally if the rumours are true and he has been asked to leave, why on earth would we have rafa back, as its his doing that has put us in this position to begin with, we need to pull out all the stops to either get the right man in now or at the end of the season, i would love to see Hiddink but he says he does not want to commit to a full time position also Andre Villas Boas would be a great appointment has he has learnt his trade under mourinho and is doing very well with porto at present, we also need to buy world class attacking players to inspire and motivate, if we don't then we will carry on to be sitting pretty much in the position that we find ourselves in at present. YNWA keep praying the board make the right decision

Personally, I've resigned myself to the fact that Torres will be leaving Liverpool in the Summer.

I think he's abit annoyed at how he was promised top class signings at Liverpool, only for us to sign a lot of crap players. It's like being promised a Ferrari and getting a Nissan Micra. Not to mention his grievances about Alonso, Arbeloa and Hyypia leaving without sufficient replacements being signed.

This season seems to have made it even worse. He's playing under a manager who doesn't seem to realise that he likes to and is best at playing off the shoulder of the defenders, not to forget the lack of service apart from some hoofs up the field from the defence. And our defensive tactics. He has lost faith in the manager and is getting bugger all service from any area in the field.

Really, who could blame him for wanting to get out of this mess? I know he is sulking, but he's not the only one and his confidence is bound to be non-existant.

We'll need a miracle if we want to keep him here. We need a new manager, our form needs to vastly improve and we need to sign one or two good players in January as an indication of our intentions. None of that looks likely, so we'll just lose Torres. I think we'll get between £35-40m for him. Really gutted about this situation but our club shouldn't revolve around one player being here or not.

Would you agree with that ed? Do you reckon there are any circumstances in which Torres would decide to stay beyond the end of the season? {ed's note - I think there are many reasons he would stay, but the way the team are playing right now and the training they undergo is not making anyone happy. He doesn't like the way he gets kicked from pillar to post for nothing, game after game, because refs won't give a foul when he is being pulled, pushed and kicked from behind. He is also fed up that every challenge he makes is pulled up and given as a foul against. A good manager would use the injustices to fire him up and get him playing better, Roy, on the other hand, isn't doing that at all.}

Anyone else like to see beckham at Liverpool on the right wing. Kuyt to move up front with Torres. Beckham is getting old but still has a season or two to provide great service for us. Going cheap and would attract more world class players to anfield.

The dilemma is that we stick with him and loose are best players and/ or get relegated, we are only 3 points off the drop and on minus 2 goal difference. After the break. The last time we had a run like this we got relegated.

I am sad to say it but I am with most supporters in sacking Roy, I think he is a great bloke but I had high hopes when we got him and things have gone badly for my beloved club. Listened to THE Anthem about walking on through the rain - that's what all Liverpool fans are doing right now, but Roy is bring the rain down heavier I think as I know how our top players have played until this season.
I was wrong about supporting Roy, I admit it. Sorry Roy, a gentleman but it's not working.

We only knew NESV were taking over 3 days before they did? Were do you live lad? Don't they have newspapers t.v's and computers in WOOLY BACK LAND? I had heard about NESV weeks before they took over, but maybe that's because i am from LIVERPOOL AND LIVE 15MINS AWAY FROM THE GROUND. Now go wobble yer head it's your turn on the SHEEP

Good for you son, you knew weeks before. We'll have to give you a gold star to print off so you can stick it on your chest since you are a very special boy. It was hardly common knowledge weeks before it happened though, and the whole story was only really known a few days before all the court hearings and things.

And sorry, I don't live in "Wolly Back Land", I hate to ruin your belief that you have supernatural mind-reading powers.

Oh dear, you live 15mins away from Anfield? I think we'll need to send another gold star to you because you really are a very unique person. I don't think that really makes a difference as to whether you heard about NESV or not.

Also, I like how you call me lad, yet you fail to present anything which supports your point of view or even challenges the points I made, instead you just have a petulant rant about how you live near Anfield and knew about NESV before me and how you just assumed I lived in a certain area. You don't know where I live, I could live beside Anfield, I could live 100miles away from Anfield, I could live in Spain, I could live on the moon for all you know. I'm still a Liverpool fan none the less.

In the summer I announced that Roy would be incharge, Joe Cole, Meireles, Shelvey and Wilson would be Liverpool players. My sources for information have now dried up, so what is going on! we cannot beat Blackpool or Wolves at home? why is Pacheco not getting a run out? The new owners need to get a grip before it is too late. Torres, Gerrard, Johnson and Coles form are shocking. So Sylvain Marveaux is to be the first signing as eported in the papers? I hope they get Wilfried Zaha but these 2 will not drive Liverpools fortunes. We need a good strong attacking forward to support Torres, a good defensive midfielder and a decent left back. One name that LFC should be trying to purchase to fill one of those positions (and who we can afford) is Lassana Diarra

If Kenny is to come in to replace Roy, you have to remember, last time he had incredible backup from Paisley (85/ 6) and evans and Moran.
No way is Sammy Lee up to the job. My idea would be to bring back Roy Evans as coach and Thommo as assistant. A dream trio of Kenny, Evas and Thommo.

I know everyone is concerned about the state of affairs at our great club. But I have one word for you- Spurs.

Three years ago, Spurs were in the relegation zone and really struggling. However, they sacked Juande Ramos and bought in a lot of players, and they are now starting to get results.

Liverpool have a better reputation, bigger stadium, bigger fanbase and wealthier, experienced owners than Spurs. We can still attract great players; don't believe what the press say; they are out to end Liverpool.

However for the club to move forward, Roy must go. Spurs saw the light with sacking Juande. We must do the same.

RE:Dami Commolli > sports Director

John Henry would be a idiot to buy a football club and not have a Ace up his Shelve.

Damien Comolli is best thing to happen to liverpool in a long time. Long gone are years of wasting transfer fees


1> having friend in high places is only a good thing.


Arsenal> Comolli was a scout who found a some talent at arsenal. He did that and he took the credit for it on his CV. Like anyone applying for job, they state on CV what they have done in the past. Wenger is the manager and Arsenal have chief scout, but Comolli just stated the work he had done at arsenal. Cant blame him for that.

Mourinho was an interpreter to bobby robson at barcelona, but everyone knew he had a talent. And Wenger doesn't blame him for that, he just states that he built arsenal not comolli.

Tottenham> When comolli was at tottenham, the club had a very strong squad that should of been gunning for a top 4 spot. But they didn't gel and ended up on the bottom of the league. But the squad had everything it needed to challenge

"Comolli was sacked by Tottenham in October 2008, together with the coach Juande Ramos, "

Harry Redknapp is a croupt little manager that likes to take bungs having someone to answer to would really stop harry from filling up his off shore bank account. Crouch deal, most of his deals involve brown envelops

Harry got a very good squad and turned them around went on a straight winning run without any signings when he took over.

"Comolli was criticised by the Spurs chairman Daniel Levy for overseeing the sales of Berbatov and another striker, Robbie Keane, "

I remember that D-Comolli managed to rape both manchester utd and liverpool over the price for both of these players. Man u paid too much and liverpool paid over the odd for Kean. As a chairman, i would be laughin all the way to the bank.

"failing to replace them adequately, leaving the squad unbalanced.

Defoe in (he left for portsmouth, came back with harry
Kean in (Got him back at Xmas from liverpool
Peter Crouch in (from portsmouth
Bent out, (I remember he was tottehams leading striker that year
Pavlyuchenko stays

I really didn't see harry finding some amazing new young striking talent.

I give Harry full credit for adding a resilience which wasn't there before,

Younes Kaboul (from portsmouth
Peter Crouch (from portsmouth
Jermain Defoe (from portsmouth
Robbie Kean (from liverpool
Vedran Corluka (from man city
Wilson Palacios (from newcastle
Sebastien Bassong (from newcastle
Rafael Van der Vaart
William Gallas (arsenal

If you look at it, Tottenham got their players back from Portsmouth + Liverpool. And got Newcastle players when Newcastle went down.

These are not amazing new players that where discovered by harry.

Also Totteham have a good youth setup just like arsenal. This is something liverpool really want to copy at anfield.

NESV would not of bought liverpool without having a management structure in place that would develop the brand and profits, but also half the risk in transfer market. sporting directors half the risk in transfer market.

You turn up at the chairman's door with list of players for 100 millions. The board needs a scientific way to look at the risk of these players


managers manage, They are not all great transfer market people. Most of the time, agents decide what kind of players the club gets. transfer market is left to professionals.

Football clubs need a good scouting program to know what the going rates for types of players should be.

You don't want a person like Roy Hodgson in charge of transfer kitty. He is bad with money. Doesn't have the contacts in market, can't really manage a team that well and will be gone soon.

Just wanted to make a comment on comments on this site over the last few months with regards to NESV. I have read comments like there successful forrays into sports ventures around the world, as far as I am aware the Red Socks are the only experience of sport they have encountered, if this incorrect then let me no anybody. I am starting to have a very uneasy feeling about them, to my mind at the minute they appear to be showing a very nervous amaturish buisness approach. I never wanted Hodgson and wanted rid of him from day 1, but I could understand 5 or 6 games ago that they didn't want to jump in feet first and sack him but what there reasons are for not doing so now are begining to worry me, it smacks of not knowing what to do due to a lack of knowledge of how football works in this country. If there reasons are the availability of a new man I can understand to a point, but to keep somebody in the job who is a poor tactician a poor man manager poor in the transfer market and has shown a poor ability when talking to the media I can't. They should do what the last Yanks were too inept to do and GIVE THE JOB TO DALGLISH. Who with immediate effect would have the players on board have the supporters on board and is media savvy with man management skills 2nd to none. Feel free to agree or disagree, these are just my opinions and that's why we love football and our team NESV TAKE NOTE.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Sorry, but that post is just, to put it simply, a shower of s* *e. A "nervous amateurish business approach"? Is that why we only heard that they were to be our owners like 3 days before it happened, despite them being in talks with Broughton, Purslow and Ayre for months and even being shown around Melwood weeks before the takeover? How is that kind of approach amaeturish? Would you prefer that they hung the dirty washing in public like Gillette and Hicks did on several occassions? Would you call that a "professional" approach then? Fair enough, they don't know as much about football as your average football fan, but they did say they were here to learn didn't they and they know a lot more than people think.

Can't believe that fickle, narrow minded people like yourself are already having a pop at NESV and pointing the finger at them for our problems. Do you want to make our fans look like a pile of pricks? We'll be scaring Werner and co. away at this rate.

The only signing Liverpool should make on Saturday is the managers name on a sacking package. . I've been to Anfield every year since I was 12. .I'm 39 now. .I've travelled from Cork every year and this season there is know way I will come over . .It breaks my hearts but I can't justify it. .how any one can start with the 11 ( formation ) he did last night is beyond belief. .and with a goal down and take Meirelses off and leave that poor excuse for a player Lucas on the park is scary. . if I had been on the end of the abuse he got at the end of the game and still be manager now only leads me to believe that he must just so just thicked skinned it's unbelievable. .I have been to Fenway Park 5 times and have seen what NESV have donethey have transformed the whole place. . so please JH for all our sakes last him go. . Give Kenny the job now and get Owen Coyle as soon as you can. .

Rafa is a lfc legend, check his record out! he got a champions league runner up medal, winners medal, fa cup, final of world club championship!(which we were robbed!) runner up in the league. highest goals in 2008-2009 season, champions league yearly on a tight budget(buy to sell) bought through youngsters and the biggest of all he got hicks and gillett out! and people say its a backward step! he is world class, he turned down some of the biggest jobs in the world cause of his loyalty to the fans, he considered lfc home and would sacrafice himself for the good of the club eventually! this man put us back on the map in europe, gave us hope as fans as real contenders, DREAMING OF WINNING EVERY COMPETITION WE WERE IN! he was building for the future and was let down by ppl above him! we should be proud to say he was our manager! i watch fans chant his name all around anfield not just the kop, fans can hope, he would consider coming back afetr the way he was treated( move on u say? rivalry for the next 10-15 years bentizez vs mourinio. check there records u will c it developing!

Just wanted to make a comment on comments on this site over the last few months with regards to NESV. I have read comments like there successful forrays into sports ventures around the world, as far as I am aware the Red Socks are the only experience of sport they have encountered, if this incorrect then let me no anybody. I am starting to have a very uneasy feeling about them, to my mind at the minute they appear to be showing a very nervous amaturish buisness approach. I never wanted Hodgson and wanted rid of him from day 1, but I could understand 5 or 6 games ago that they didn't want to jump in feet first and sack him but what there reasons are for not doing so now are begining to worry me, it smacks of not knowing what to do due to a lack of knowledge of how football works in this country. If there reasons are the availability of a new man I can understand to a point, but to keep somebody in the job who is a poor tactician a poor man manager poor in the transfer market and has shown a poor ability when talking to the media I can't. They should do what the last Yanks were too inept to do and GIVE THE JOB TO DALGLISH. Who with immediate effect would have the players on board have the supporters on board and is media savvy with man management skills 2nd to none. Feel free to agree or disagree, these are just my opinions and that's why we love football and our team NESV TAKE NOTE.

All these fans shouting that creating a United FC - style club for Liverpool is idiotic - IT ALREADY HAPPENED - Theyre called AFC Liverpool & they're on the go for a couple of years now, playing in the North-West counties league division One. They were in the FA Cup last year too. The likes of Molby & Aldridge helped create media attention & fundraising for it as did a host of former players. It was formed as local lfc fans couldn't afford to go to Anfield as regulars anymore but still wanted to watch a live game. Read about them on Wiki for an introduction. They've the same fans as LFC but can watch a game - they've done well in their first 2 years and Paul Walsh is Assistant manager there. Heggem & Erik Meijer are patrons at the club. So don't just spout vitriol at your fellow fans when you don't know what you're talking about. . one risks looking rather foolish. .does one not agree? lol.

Okay guys, first time post here, And to be honest, I'm young, Only 15, and Play high level football in France. Been a liverpool fan for ever, being born there, and I know this year has been terrible, but YOU SO CALLED LIVERPOOL FANS SHOULD SHUT THE F* * UP CRITISIZING ALL THE TIME! I mean common'! You can blame Hodgson as much as you like (I personally would like to see him replaced) but the players are the only ones that are going to win us a game, and beeing a football player myself, having a crowd of dull, annoyed, CRITISIZING fans puts you off, no matter what level you play at! I mean for god's sake! The players LIKE Hodgson and if the players had a problem with Hodgson, he would be sacked by now, believe me! So instead of calling for other managers, you should be singing one song, repeating it over and over again, untill the storm passes, You'll never walk alone! And at the moment, our Whole liverpool sqaud are walking alone! Money might attract top class players, thophies might attract them aswell, but at the moment, we can't attract players with that, but Imagine playing for a club which sings, not of joy, but of beleif, of support a whole match despite the appauling results, any player would want to play for us, because in an athmosphere such as that, a player would feel relaxed, and would be able to SHINE, and not flop because of the pressure put on him! (Just an example of this: Marveaux hasn't even been announced yet, and some of us are already slagging him off, ffs! Give the lad a chance, and I know he will shine, because I play for the same club he just came from, Rennes. . and I had the honour to watch him train with the rest of the squad, but beeing an honest person, I havn't got a clue if he's signed at Liverpool yet or not!)

I hope this gets posted, because I'm afraid that our own fans are going to destroy Liverpool Football Club.

If! as some people have said, players are running the dressing room, why doesn't Roy drop them?

He doesn't drop our so-called stars because if he did so and we lost a game he'd be slated by the fans and media, along the lines of "How can you not play Gerrard, he's the greatest player ever to pull on a liverpool shirt (which is the most ridiculous overstatement I've ever heard)!" The same would be said of dropping Torres and Carragher, even though both have come in for criticism recently. There has been a sort of cult amongst the fans regarding our top players, the scouse ones particularly, in recent years. If a player knows he'll be in the starting 11 regardless of form then he will become complacent, lazy and lose respect for the shirt - just look at Torres recently. He should not be in the starting line-up. I remember Bob Paisley dropping Kenny Dalglish - who is the greatest player ever in a red shirt. But if Roy didn't pick them he'd be slaughtered. Don't get me wrong, I'm not defending Hodgson whatsoever. I don't care how good Gerrard is, you shouldn't break up a partnership which is working, and the Mereiles/ Lucas midfield was doing very well. The captain has to play, but he's more versatile than anyone else in the side, so rather than push Mereiles out of position we'd be better dropping Kuyt, playing Maxi down the left and Gerrard just behind the centre forward or down the right.

Ed's (or anyone else) Maybe you can help me with this one. Surely as we have staggered through this season, and the interview with the owners on LFC.tv saying that the results were not good enough, shouldn't they have a back up plan by now? You would have thought that seeing us stumble from embarrassing defeat to embarrassing defeat they would at least have a "just in case" "plan b" up their sleeve. Would that not make sense? They may not get the man they want right away but they can see out the season with someone else surely?

Of course, I hope Marveaux proves me wrong.

I agree, but it seems listening to Werner and Henry that their intention is to install a ceo and then address any outstanding issues - at least that's what I picked up from the phone-in they did on LFCTV. As has been said by the eds, getting a top class manager in mid-season will be very difficult.

If! as some people have said, players are running the dressing room, why doesn't Roy drop them?

Can you imagine, "the chosen one", Fergy, Wenger or even Moysy putting up with any upstarts, even if they are experienced long standing players.

I would have more respect for Roy if he dropped our superstars if they were deliberately playing bad or giving no effort(as we have seen against Wolves, Stoke, Blackpool etc) Roy may not have the tactics we all would like but I would like to see all the players pull the shirt on and play their best no matter what they think of Roy.

We need a good clear out of players, manager and some backroom staff and I wouldn't be too suprised if some so called Liverpool greats are included in this cull, lets stop living in the past and get real, at best we can match Man u, Arsenal and Chelsea, at worse we can't compete against bottom of the league and it's not just the manager to blame.

{ed's note - I don't know but personally I wouldn't like Comolli to have that much influence, I am very dubious about him.}

Hi ed, I've read either yourself or a few of the editors saying something similar to this a couple of times now. Can I ask, seeing as I don't know anything about him really, what is it about Comolli which troubles you? Is it to do with his personality, his role at our club, his history, or something else?

Thanks

SpanishChris {ed's note - I have just been hearing a few things regarding him that have left me unsettled, he is not held in high regard by anyone whose opinion I respect.}
===================================
I wonder whether Comolli is one of those self publicists who flashes his qualifications, overstates his triumphs and with the help of fellow Frenchmen Houllier, Wenger and Platini moves in high footballing circles, sitting on UEFA committees, pontificating about matters football with the great and the good. Is he really the man for the club that was made by Shankly, Paisley, Fagan, Moran, Smith and Robinson? {ed's note - that is almost exactly what he was described as to me by someone who I trust.}
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
All the more worrying as the owners do not know anything about football. Even though they know how run a Sorting institution thay are open to been misinformed by Comolli about players and certain football issues.

Hey Ed, let me make this site not talk about Roy all day! It looks like our manager will not be changed until the summer. If Didier Deschamps were brought in, do you think he would bring any players with him from Marseille such as Taiwo, Gignac or Azpilicueta who he just signed this summer? Taiwo may not sign a new contract and could finally solve our LB problem, and Gignac has done a Robbie Keane and not settled at all with hardly any goals and could quickly move on? I rate him personally.
It seems Johnson's 120k a week wages seems to have upset a lot of people within the club and Azpilicueta would be perfect replacement fitting the NESV profile being 21, with Pacheco and Suso our other young spaniards. I know he is badly injured now and fit again only at end of the season, and maybe with the manager going he would follow? Spanish players in france hardly ever work out. {ed's note - hard to say, though I would like us to sign Taiwo regardless of who the new manager is.}

You've only gotta see how big he thinks he is by the way he took on Inters hierachy.Yes we had 2 good years under him .Yes we came close to a league title .But erm who lost the plot? I'm not backing Roy here far from it. I think he should go now.
There are very few options out there and no King Kenny is not the answer either .He is a Legend and a God and that is how he should remain.What happens if we fall further behind at the end of the season , and fail to qualify for Europe ?You lot gonna call for his head if we loose more games ?

I think the current situation is summed up well by the guardian online website today, please NESV - act now!

Liverpool have to sack Hodgson now
Pass and move, it's the Liverpool groove? Not any more. The Hodgson way is more hoof and pray. As endless long punts were hammered towards Fernando Torres and David Ngog during last night's defeat to Wolves, it became increasingly impossible to justify Roy Hodgson lasting at Anfield beyond the end of the week. Patience has its virtues, and chairmen can be trigger-happy, but it is hardly compulsory; Hodgson's time is up. He simply has to go. Forget about giving him extra time and the chance to dip into the transfer market in January. Trust has to be earned and Hodgson has failed. Liverpool are perched three points above the bottom three. Losing to Northampton Town, Blackpool and Wolves at Anfield in the space of six months, no matter what financial constraints Hodgson has had to work under, is a grotesque underachievement for a club of Liverpool's elevated standing.

For all his complaints about the situation he inherited from Rafael Benítez, Hodgson took over a squad containing Pepe Reina, Jamie Carragher, Javier Mascherano, Steven Gerrard, Dirk Kuyt and Torres. Granted, he lost Mascherano to Barcelona but he also willingly parted with Alberto Aquilani, while bringing in the laughable pair of Paul Konchesky and Christian Poulsen. Although Liverpool were average last season, they still finished seventh. With the players at his disposal, Hodgson has introduced an ugly, negative route-one style, which last night saw the defence bypassing the midfield with alarming regularity.

These tactics might have sufficed at Fulham, but then Hodgson has often appeared dumbfounded by the level of expectation at Anfield. Not only is this approach unforgivable against Wolves, who were bottom of the table before the game and had amassed just one point on their travels all season, it is hopelessly misguided considering the players at Hodgson's disposal. Torres is not exactly Kevin Davies - he needs the ball played to feet or for him to run on to. He will never beat the likes of Christophe Berra in the air. Torres is a world-class striker being forced to operate like a lower-league journeyman, even if his form has been at that standard since the summer.

While Liverpool's players must take some responsibility too, clearly Hodgson has lost the dressing room, if he ever had it in the first place. Under Benítez, when Liverpool were losing games at Anfield, teams would brace themselves for the inevitable barrage as they defended their goal at the Kop End, waiting for Gerrard to pop up with a jaw-dropping equaliser. Last night there was nothing. With Wolves, whose sparky, attractive style of play belied their lowly position, required to do the bare minimum, dissent grew among the home supporters. Afterwards Hodgson was critical of the fans, questioning where the "famous support" had gone. He sounded like an away fan mocking a subdued home crowd about the lack of atmosphere. It almost appears as if he is getting his shots in early. Liverpool's supporters already disliked Hodgson. This will be seen as a step too far.

I think the main reason why Liverpool are doing so badly is that they are not enjoying going to training with Roy and Sammy. Players need to be able to have a laugh with the manager as well; a huge reason why Mourinho is so successful. Players also like to see managers with energy and enthusiasm; a reason why Guardiola is so successful.

My point is we need a manager and assistant that is energetic and likable. This is why I would love Unai Emery as the manager. I would love Paco Ayesteryan back as the assistant, but I know he fell out with Unai at Valencia, so maybe the assistant managers job should go to the best assistant in the country, and someone who is unemployed- Ray Wilkins.

Roy Hodson did well last year at fulham, did very well with them, got them to 7th, european final, manager of the year. . and is now dealing with 25 internationals 4 at the world cup final, wages of 90,000 plus a week, huge expectations from fans, one of the greatest histories in WORLD football. . .and he definately struggling to stay afloat, whats worse is his bloody comments after the game each time,

Paul Dalglish via twitter said. If I go to watch football, they play awful i'm entitled to show how i feel, i worked hard for that ticket, so i feel i can say how i feel. If you pay to see opera, you expect opera. .they can be the best heavy metal band in the world, but it's not them you paid to see. . .

Personally I feel Roy has to go now, and until a FULL TIME manager and assistant are found, Kenny Dalglish should take the day-day running of the club with Jamie Carragher assisting him, as I feel one day he will be doing the job by himself

''Owen coyle every day of the week for me! as a club now we can"t just go and get a top nane manager any more but in coyle we could find a hidden jem''

. . . I agree. . .he has proven prem experience, but is still young enough to have 'fire in his belly' as they say. . . . we need an attack minded manager, who is young enough to build and manage for the next generation

The reason in my opinion liverpool has faulted under roy this season is because he has attempted to play football like fullum, narrow with longballs, which doesn't suit us at all firstly because we don't have a Dempsey up the pitch to win the headers. And secondly because you score goals like that. therefore i believe for january we need. .
A new manager
2 winger such as a.johnson and young
a striker such as hulk or llorente
a solid center back

Roy Hodgson's record at Liverpool FC: the statistics so far

Dec 30 2010 By Sean Bradbury


The stats make grim reading for Liverpool FC manager Roy Hodgson, who last night tasted defeat for the ninth time in 29 games as Anfield boss - plunging the Reds to a 57-year low.

Wolves' win leaves Liverpool on just 22 points going into the New Year, their lowest tally at this stage of the season since 1953/ 54 when Don Welsh's side was relegated.

Hodgson has still never beaten Wolves as a Premier League manager, while last night's visitors - bottom of the league before kick-off - had not won at Anfield since 1984.

The Reds have already lost to two of the promoted clubs this term - Newcastle away, Blackpool at home - and now find themselves just three points off the relegation zone and five points from the foot of the table.

The Blackpool defeat in October put Liverpool into the bottom three and - in the first statistical nod to the 1953/ 54 season - meant the Reds had got off to their worst league start for 57 years.

And Kopites will remember Liverpool's Carling Cup clash against League Two outfit Northampton back in September for all the wrong reasons, with Hodgson's side crashing out on penalties in what many considered to be the most embarrassing home performance since Worcester City in 1959.

While last night's loss also came at Anfield, Hodgson's away record with Liverpool so far is perhaps more of a cause for concern.

The Reds have been beaten six times and have managed only one win on the road in the league this season, scoring just six goals.

Hodgson has never won more than five away games in charge of a Premier League team in a single season; Rafael Benitez won only five away games in 2009/ 10 and it was not deemed good enough to keep him at LFC.

Benitez won 13 away games with the Reds in the 2008/ 09 campaign - the same amount Hodgson has won in his Premier League managerial career to date.

Roy Hodgson's Premier League away record in full:

1997/ 98 at Blackburn Rovers - 5 away wins - finished 6th
1998/ 99 at Blackburn Rovers - 0 away wins - sacked when 20th
2007/ 08 at Fulham - 3 away wins - finished 17th
2008/ 09 at Fulham - 3 away wins - finished 7th
2009/ 10 at Fulham - 1 away win - finished 12th
2010/ 11 at Liverpool - 1 away win so far - currently 12th

-
there's also a table listing the percentage wins of other managers: kenny top, followed by bob paisley and then rafa

what you think ed's {ed's note - he has had time but there is no sign of improvement, not even an inkling that he can turn things around and getting us playing properly. It is depressing.}

Like a lot of our fans went to bed last night and could not sleep. I really do have a fear of relegation. Today went to Liverpool one and had a large coffee in Costa. Everyone is talking about RH and that he shud go. I just keep thinkin the best side to put out aginst Bolton and giving the side balance. My god us unsupportive supporters (RH's words) have a better idea.

Another thought the club, players must have a clue on how we feel today. Two things are missing for me;

1. Our captain comin out apologising and insisting the squad are behind RH
2. The club comin out and insisting he is staying our manager

Deadly silence. Is it because the wheels are in motion for his removal?

I regret, but believe Hodgson won't resign. He has said several times that he'd never resign from anywhere. So either he stays or he gets sacked. I just don't see the owners sacking him yet, not without a CEO, and not without a sensible back-up plan in place. I'm certain he has convinced them that he is not the man for the job, but perhaps a situation such as this indicates an area of weakness when you have owners who lack long-standing relationships within the game. They could turn to Dalglish for advice in terms of who to recruit to fill in on an interim basis, but how sound will his advice be on this subject when he was firmly dismissed as a candidate? Makes me sick to say it, but I think we're stuck with Hodgson for the next few weeks at least.

why wait for a ceo no need to what he gunna do that's different to what the owners should do other than say yep hes no good get rid, for alls anyone knows we coulda been talking to other managers lately and coulda found a replacement we do seem to be keeping alot of things quiet now the new owners r in so hopefully its done

I hope i'm wrong but can't see Gervinho being what we need at all. He's not even Lilles best player and could end up being another Babel. I've also seen abit of Marveaux and although he seems competent enough i think that we should be aiming for a higher quality of players for our first team however if his wages are reasonable and fee low i think he could be of more use than Gervinho. I would like us to push for the best quality at all times oh and for mr Hodgson to fook off.

Eds please, note the similarities with LFC and Blackburn with the common denominator being RH.

Hodgson's second season with Blackburn did not match the relative success of the first, due to numerous injuries, [13] dressing room unrest, the failure to find an adequate replacement for departed central defender Colin Hendry, [14] and a succession of poor buys - notably the £7.5 million Kevin Davies. As a result, Blackburn had a disastrous start to the season and Hodgson was sacked in December 1998, with the club bottom of the league table.[15] As Hodgson later explained, Blackburn's owner gave him the chance to resign honourably, but he refused to do so, leaving the club with no option but to sack him: "To Blackburn's honour, Jack Walker wanted me to resign, he wanted to still pay for the rest of my contract. He said, 'Why don't you resign? You've had enough, it's not working out.' I refused to do that, arrogant of course as I was in those days. I thought if they stuck with me I'd save them from relegation. I do think that the players were very much still with me, so I couldn't resign because that would be a suggestion that in some way I was doing something or something was happening which I didn't see to be the case or the truth. I gave him no choice but to sack me".

Comments he made then are so similat to comments being made todday regarding "still had the dresing reoom etc" and comments regarding signings etc. .

Hey people, hope all is well and not TOO Stressed with the situation. .

firstly, that was the worst performance ive ever seen from our team. boring, no strategy, no game plan, the players looked like the were playing 'because they had to' (at which point Roy shouldve instantly noticed and replaced from the bench), we got demolished! !

I just can't believe what our 'manager' said after, WE need to stop being so negative, WE need to let the players play. excuse me but as much as the players aren't performing up the scratch, the BIGGEST problem is him by far. We're chanting for other managers and boo'ing HIM! Hes what we're angry with but he happily shifted the blame onto the players. . now why the hell would they want to repay him 'faith/ trust' in them?!

When Roy was employe, the lfc 'rebuilding job' was described by many as the biggest job in world football. Lots to do!

Once Roy gets sacked (and please be quick PLEASE) the new job is going to make the old job look tiny!.

we're in trouble. (i know i sound like a mardy supporter, i'm normally optimistic!)

Anyone watch MOTD after? Hear Hansen's comments he got himself in a sticky sitaution ie. his plea was along the lines of Back him if you must or please please sack him. . everyone knows it.

Whoever does take over needs to be a true Classy professional. Who will manage the resourses they aquire - like in my eyes, what i thought any manager should do? NOT repeat over and over that these resourses where never mine 'dont blame me' arghh. .! !


i'd personally take Rafa back and see how he does untill the summer - knows the squad hes working with, is a tactician, and he's proberly hungry to proove himself (recently had his own pride crushed. . in a similar boat to the players. . pull everyone together maybe?)


Just my thoughts. feel free to comment

Sylvain Marveaux will not be a left back. he is an att acking left sided midfielder (preference) although can play on the right hand side doing same job. He is 24. As for teams not being interested in him, Chelsea, Manure, West Ham have all been linked with him in the past few months.
"In July this year (2010) Sylvain Marveaux has issued a veiled warning to his club Stade Rennes to let him leave now or risk him seeing out his contract and walking away for nothing next year when it expires.

Rennes have offered Marveaux a contract extension, but the 24-year-old appears to be holding out for a transfer.

"I do not want to discuss it yet, " he told L'Equipe." I have one year contract and if I have to start this season with Rennes, I hope it goes well and I'll go to the end of my contract."

Marveaux, who had previously been linked with Chelsea and Manchester United, is one of the hottest young players in French football and has been compared to current Blues midfielder Florent Malouda.


The 24-year-old, who plays predominantly on the left wing, scored 10 goals and provided five assists in 35 appearances for Rennes in 2009/ 2010.

And he told L'Equipe that he was flattered by the attention his performances had received.

"It's great. I know very well that when you are on the centre stage, that's just the way it is, " he said, adding that despite his ambitions, he would keep his feet firmly on the ground.

He is rated: As for a manager like the eds have said there are currently none "available" at this present time. As for Deschamps if you read his initial view as to when LFC approached him, he said the "timing was not right" unquote. Who knows, but if it means RH goes before the end of season / sooner lets hope the temporary man is some one who breathes and lives LFC (oh some-one who won't turn on the fans) RH has made so many comments i can't even be bothered to put then down.

There does seem to be a distincr French feel to the future of LFC.

I bet my mate a 1-0 Loss and Roy's sacking a day later. Only 1 of the 2 has come about. ggggrrrrr. Even though I despise losing, I'd rather lose another game to see Roy's desperate look out the door! I hope NESV knows what they're doing and not waiting to appoint a CEO to rid of Roy and his assistants. If Newcastle could rid of their manager who won them promotion and has them in Europa contention, they why in the world is Roy still here!? ? I heard Jamie Redknapp saying the players aren't good enough! Jamie needs to keep his trap shut! Is Gerrard, Torres, Kuyt, Glen Johnson, Raul, Pepe, Babel, etc. etc. not good enough to compete for a top 5 position?? COME ON! We are good enough, however we don't have a manager that commands the respect! Let me be honest here. I coach a local youth team and don't have the best players in the league but we've won 3 straight Championships! Why? ?. Look at Pep G. Jose M. Guus H. THEY ONLY SHOW DETERMINATION AND INSPIRE THEIR PLAYERS! not rubb their face with frustration! These are young men that look to their gaffer for leadership and he doesn't even show it on the pitch!

Hey Ed. What do you think of adding Daniel Sturridge to the mix?
and why has the N'Zogbia rumours died down seeing that he is playing very well? (even though he was red carded last night, he dominated Wigan's game!)
We need players who are forward and direct however we get another softy in Marveaux. .Why?

SIM THE RED {ed's note - Sturridge has a serious case of attitude, he thinks he is already a great player, N'Zogbia the same, they are not what we need. Comolli is the reason we have Marveaux and are chasing Hoarou(sp?), they are his players.}

They would both ensure the team are playing attacking football again. Rafa is very good tactically and we should take him back.He knows the LFC way and the fans would get right behind him.

"But I don't have any truck with that. Joe is a midfield player, and what's the right position for a midfield player?"

"Joe has to come to terms with the fact that he has come here after an unsuccessful period at Chelsea with high hopes of taking Liverpool by storm and unfortunately it's not happened. That's life. He should be convincing me and everyone watching that this is a player who can help Liverpool win things. And I think you couldn't say that has been the case so far."

Rafa + Paco + Commoli=?? ? ?

Could this work for LFC. Rafas downside was allegedly his spending. I personally think he spent well overall but when we got cash strapped under H&G he had to go for expensive 2nd tier players and got burned a little. Commoli has a good eye for young up and coming players and I think they could work well together with NESV policyon transfers. Paco is a MUST though as the squad love him and we suffered when he left.

Believe if you agree.
unbelieve if youd prefer to see a new manager

This is what RH said about Cole that ed mentioned.

'Joe has to come to terms with the fact that he has come here after an unsuccessful period at Chelsea with high hopes of taking Liverpool by storm and unfortunately it's not happened, " said the Liverpool manager, who will have Steven Gerrard and Daniel Agger available for the Boxing Day game at Blackpool."If he says 'Well I'm not playing in my right position', then you'd have to ask him what his right position is. If he says the only place he can play is behind the striker, then he is limiting his chances of playing here."We also have Gerrard and [Raúl] Meireles who can play in that position, and at the moment quite often we are playing with two strikers. I would be sad to hear him saying something like that, because he would be suggesting he can't do what he has done so often for England and Chels

Just like to restate the perfect managerial candidate for LFC ( that I first touted 3 months ago) - Slaven Bilic.
Read his Wikipedia entry - several things to note.
Has coached since 2006.
Coached Croatian youth U21 team for 2 years and then took over national team - where he also promoted Modric, Corluka and Edward from U21. (Proves he's got an eye for talent and is not scared of giving youth a try.)
Currently ranked as 2nd best national manager.
Fluent English.
Proven Premiership experience and decent defender.
Would wind up the Bluenoses following from his last contract with Everton and how it ended. (I reckon some unfinished business there.)
A former player who is not too old to have his experiences discounted by the current players. They will respect him.
From memory - he was a leader on the pitch. Would be a leader.off it too.

Mr. Henry, Mr. Lerner - get him in.

96/ 97 was the year we should have won the league title. We just lost some games stupidly in the final month of the season (Coventry I think). Our defence was poor with Babb and Bjornebye etc, plus Calamity James in goal. The football was good under Evans with lots of good short passing. He also gave the youngsters a chance - Fowler, Mcmanaman, Matteo, Jones, Redknapp and Owen, but was let down by the likes of Collymore, James, Ruddock, Babb and Mark Wright. Does anybody remember us destroy Newcastle 4-1 at St James' Park in the 98/ 99 season just days after they had sacked kenny? Owen was absolutely lethal that day. It was around this time Evans and his assistant Doug livermore were undermined by his Co Manager Gerrard Houllier. I think Evans left Liverpool very sad and upset by his departure.

This is what roy said Cole he must accept any role in the team, not just his preferred position behind the striker, if he is to make an impact at Anfield.

"Joe has to come to terms with the fact that he has come here after an unsuccessful period at Chelsea with high hopes of taking Liverpool by storm and unfortunately it's not happened, " said the Liverpool manager, who will have Steven Gerrard and Daniel Agger available for the Boxing Day game at Blackpool.

"If he says 'Well I'm not playing in my right position', then you'd have to ask him what his right position is. If he says the only place he can play is behind the striker, then he is limiting his chances of playing here.

"We also have Gerrard and [Raúl] Meireles who can play in that position, and at the moment quite often we are playing with two strikers. I would be sad to hear him saying something like that, because he would be suggesting he can't do what he has done so often for England and Chelsea, which is playing in a different position."

Rafa + Paco + Commoli=?? ? ?

Could this work for LFC. Rafas downside was allegedly his spending. I personally think he spent well overall but when we got cash strapped under H&G he had to go for expensive 2nd tier players and got burned a little. Commoli has a good eye for young up and coming players and I think they could work well together with NESV policyon transfers. Paco is a MUST though as the squad love him and we suffered when he left.
================================
It's very nice that Rafa has returned to his family home on the Wirral and his family are happy there, but although he gave us some great moments its time to move on and forward but without Hodgson.

Dont know what everyone else thinks but as a liverpool fan in my mind there needs to be a complete overhaul at anfield(players and staff) The deadwood players NEED to go. I'm talking about kyrgiakos, skrtle, konchesky(never liverpool class), poulsen, mereiles(anothoer 20 mill down the drain just like aquiliani), jovanovic, n'gog and even torres(he clearly doesn't care and doesnt, babel want to be with us so why not get money while we still can.)
as i said there should be staff changes as well. starting of course with hodgeson.

These players should fetch a fair bit of cash to rebuild the team and use youngsters more.

In my opinion(not a rumour. .opinion) we should sign
g. cahill
a. young
m. bougherra
d. bentley
w. bridge
d. forlan
l. young
a. johnson
d. de rossi/ xabi alonso
y. gourcouff
f. llorente
l. fabiano
s. aguero

obviously we wouldn't sign all of these but 6 or 7 would be of great benefit to the team

Having tuned in to the disaster of a game (LFC v WWFC) at the 30 minute mark, it was obvious within 60 seconds how the game was developing. The performance was totally unacceptable, perhaps the worst of the season, I am feed up with woy bleating on how he believes in his on ability, how nobody has given him a chance. If he is as good as he thinks, why will we not win the league, finish top 4 or even top 6, 5 points from the bottom 3 and only 5 points from the championship.

We need change, get woy out now. My solution, firstly get all the 1st team squad to shake hands and introduce themselves, this may help us play like a team and not 11 individuals. Secondly introduce the players to the Yellow/ White round bouncy object (the ball). Now explain the object is to move the ball with our feet (pass) to a player in a RED shirt, after you have passed the ball you should run into a new position to receive the ball (move). When we can do this competently, we then have to place the ball in the goal (shoot). The final information for these players would be that there will be 11 other players (not in red) trying to stop us (the little tinkers) and we may have to work up a sweat.

Macca or ed, who will be our likely managerial targets if hodgson was to get sacked? I know deschamps was a target but doubt he would switch now same for A. V. Boas I assume (shame)
Jim {ed's note - I think Boas has ruled himself out by signing a contract extension, it is more likely to be someone who has had a couple of years at his present job. NESV have a problem, in that all the prime targets have only just recently taken over new jobs. I am not sure who they will target now, it is hard to see anyone who might be available to move for.}
========================
By getting him to sign a contract extension, surely Porto were just making sure they get a decent amount of compensation if Liverpool or any other team comes in for Boas.

{Editor's Note: I don't see Boas as an option. Deschamps at the end of season is a possibility.}

I believe Hodgson to be a genuinely decent and honourable man. The job is too big for him especially after slagging off the fans last night. Surely he realised he was an interim manager who would get 1 season max.
Of those that played last night, i'd give Gerrard 5 out of 10 and the rest between 1 and 4 out of ten. Appalling. What's all the pass back to Reina so he can hit the ball long ball style ?
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

The pass backs to Reina was because Wolves squeezed the play, like we should, and no-one was moving into space or trying to create space. It was a bunch of players that looked uninterested and none of them can say they had a good game. We want players who show passion, pride, spirit and the minimum requirement . . . . commitment.

MUSHROOM
=======================
But where was the guile to break down Wolves. A Molby, a Dalglish, a Beardsley and a Barnes would have been able to break down the Wolves defence and Midfield with some outstanding skill or turn etc. Instead we just pumped the ball up to Kyriakos acting as a supporting forward in the final 10 minutes.

all these player are better than him. but also surely after the first ten time's the long ball did'nt work maybe it was time to try something else. but there was alot more wrong last night than one defenders performance. none of our players performed last night wich was a huge let down. the only thing to come out of last night was the fans got there voice back, after the goal went in the place went alive. but poor old roy did'nt like getting the blame.

but on a lighter note, i saw on, i think the espn website a newcastle fan say "you'll never walk alone, except when your losing." that's right a newcastle fan criticizing a us for not backing a manager. the words pot, kettle, black come to mind. i mean what is it now seven in five years, what a tool.

Reason Torres is disinterested is because he blames Gerrard and Carragher as being the main instigators in getting Rafa sacked. From Torres' perspective Rafa turned him from a good striker to a world class striker - and now he plays for Hodgson. Gerrard has always banged on about English managers and how he likes them and Torress beleives that's why Hodgson is there. Only one hing will bring Torres back 'on-line' - the removal of Gerrard r the removal of Hodgson. Bye-Bye Royutter ho*tocks, torres was quoted in the summer as saying it was probably best for both benitez and liverpool if they went there seperate ways.

I saw a comment earlier regarding transfer targets changing if Hodgson is sacked, I would presume that Comolli, as Director of Football Strategy, would still push forward with the signing regardless, seeing as he's the man in charge of transfers. So current targets such as Marveaux, Honda, Gervinho etc would still be targeted. What will be clear is that with no Hodgson, Carlton Cole will not be our most pressed for (I wouldn't mind having Cole at the club, but not for the £10m reported, he is worth no more than £5m)

Macca,

I believe there are 2 managers out there now who could do a better job than Hodgson immediately.

Kevin Keegan. Specializes in turning clubs around.

Martin O'Neill. Perfect motivator. Although I think he might be in the ME atm.

Either way, I think both these guys would have the determination and self-belief to straighten out the dressing room, which as I see it, appears to be where the problem lies.

O'Neill was lined up before Rafa came, but apparently one or two of the senior players torpedoed the move (which tells us all we need to know about the influence of some of them)

None of the above have to be the future of the club, but both individually would have the impact the club needs to get to the summer still in this league. And can I just put my two cents worth in before one of the Anti-O'Neill eds has the last word. If you think our club is too big for O'Neill, that the pressure would be too much, remember the fantastic job he did in turning Celtic around, AND they did NOT play long ball, they played some lovely football.

This is a smart guy, he was studying law before he became a pro fotballer.

Roy Evans is another perfectly acceptable character, how I wish we were playing the way he had us play. {ed's note - Celtic played terrible football with a bunch of old men that weren't good enough for the English league. O'Neill has one tactic - hoof it into the corners for widemen to get it and cross into the box. No finesse, no quick one or two touch passing, no mazy dribbles from a skilful player. I wasn't going to bother to comment but I just had to point out that O'Neill has never ever at any time produced attractive football.}

How can we support you when you say the biggest load of Crap in the media , stuff like " a point against everton is good " it might be for fulham roy but not for LIVERPOOL FC! liverpool are use to winning roy and your not !

Martin O Neil may be better than Roy, but he is still no way good enough to manage Liverpool.

We all have to be careful that we do not jump out of the fire into the frying pan.

Also how can anyone question our owners, please lets get a grip.

Lets remember what they have done for us.
Also they are in a difficult position because if there is no one available what do they do? ?

Hi again Ed what would u really think of owen coyle getting the managers job I think it would be another Roy one or two good seasons won f*** all and the english press hypeing him up what u think Ed , o yes I'd like to say to all of the x Liverpool players who slated raffa and said Roy will steady the ship and have is playing good football were are u now mr ronnie whealen and jamie redknapp and others who instead of giving out bout winng champions league and getting to a final and finishing second after playing great football under raffa have ran out of comments and ideas now about us, sorry for ranting Ed just pissed off with the ball these days after I used to love it so much under raffa {ed's note - we were boring and negative under Rafa, Roy is just even more boring and negative. I would like Coyle, he plays attractive, attacking football.}

KENNY DALGLISH
To all the people who think for whatever reason dalglish is not the one for the job, WHY? because he is a legend a true legend not a soccer am legend like chris kamara,
people like kenny dalglish don't come along often in life, people who don't need to command respect, they just get it, shankly, paisley, jock stein, ferguson, clough, and kenny dalglish weather you like some of these names or not they are all SPECIAL people with something extra that other people just havent got, if kenny dalglish says he is ready and knows he can do the job i don't think anyone should doubt him, specially frustrated fans on here kenny has forgot more about the game than most people will ever know, and the reason him being a legend and it could damage his status as a legend, IF he failed, is garbage, kenny would not fail, for one the players love him the fans love him the owners respect him its a no brainer FACE RUB FOR HODGESON, bob paisleys skids

The very fact that the club is no longer drowning in debt, added to the that the owners are not conducting public slanging matches via the media, indicates that NESV are of an entirely different genus to our previous owners. Give it a rest people, the decisions will be made in due course.

I would rather have no manager at Liverpool FC than keep Roy, and just use Kenny until the summer to tick things over, he would jump at the chance to take the seat again, maybe bring in Aldo to work beside him. either way it will do more damage keeping Roy than it would be to sack him right now.

John Henry must see that Roy is causing un rest for supporters, many games recently have gone on general sale, and yet they talk about new stadium issues, if we can't fill the ground now then what chance do we have of filling a new bigger stadium, i have put the majority of my tickets up for re sale on the clubs ticket echange scheme, the only game to be bought was my Blackpool ticket. Roy will drive fans away, so not only is Roy causing short term damage but he is also creating long term damage.

If Nesv back Roy in transfer window, and we are allowed to sign C. Cole, then i would seriously consider not renewing my season ticket come may, because that to me is showing the level ambition the club is going towards.

I will not attend another game whilst Roy is in charge (Fact) i have better things to do than to sit/ stand for 90 mins and watch his drivvel, and watch him sit down scratching his head, rubbing his face. im not being funny but if you were looking over to Roy during the game, and you seen your manager with his head in his hands, that is telling you that he hasnt a clue.

In a word, no. You are quite right, as fans of the greatest team in the world, we should be conducting ourselves with a lot more dignity. There is more to being a fan of this club that just passion, there is respect, responsibilty and civility. Please could you all bear that in mind before you go shooting your mouths off. Roy is just a bloke who has a family, as does Paul Konchesky. Grow up.

ferd {ed's note - perhaps Roy should try and treat the fans with respect in return. He has acted with complete disdain for us from the moment he took over. Personal abuse of the man is wrong, but people mentioning just how bad he is at his job is surely within reason? After all he is the worst Liverpool manager in living memory and that is saying something.}

WEAK AND LIFELESS
when you look back on the performances the last two seasons it should not come as a surprise we were out played by a team who worked hard hard and came forward at every opportunity, because our team are so static and motionless we must be easy to play against, first half against chelsea, we were ok second half we didn't touch the ball, we have played games were in 10 minute spells we look good then it all stops no movement at all and the passing suffers because no one is free hence 2 and 3 yard passes back and square, the only player who gets a sweat on is kuyt, its just not good enough, every player has to give 100% every game if this managers tactics or lack of them stops movement and effort its wrong, or if this manager can't motivate the team that's wrong also, at one time the shirt could motivate the player on its own, so that only leaves the thought that the players don't want to be motivated by the manager, the fans don't like him at all so he MUST go i can't understand why he won't walk away before the sack, bob paisleys skids

What's happening is your fault and no-one elses - not the players, not Rafa, not the fans - yours.

I see that the bandwagon for Roy's sacking has gained an unstoppable momentum now. I am no fan of Roy's, I believe his hiring was a mistake, but a blind man on a galloping horse can see the common denominator between Rafa going and Roy's seemingly imminent fate. The team are not gelling, there is something wrong in the dressing room, no-one is trusting each other, no-one is willing to show any passion, too many passes have no conviction. Just how many managers will we have to go through until we wake up and see that something is wrong with the club? The next manager will have to be someone of determination, with enough self-belief to sort out the playing staff, and if that means taking on senior payers and showing them the door, it is up to the fans to back that manager.

Either that or just ask the senior players to pick who they want. It seems they have been doing that for a while now.

Roy has his share of the blame, of course he does, not least for his limp leadership, but we should remember that anfield has been quiet for longer than Roy has been here.

Hodgson isn't the manager to take us forwards, that is obvious, but he would've been a fool to turn down the opportunity when it was offered.

He hasn't ever had the support other managers have had previously, that's also obvious, and he appears to either not be able to inspire the players or they aren't playing for him because they don't like him.

In short, he should go by resigning or he should be finished up.

But is there any necessity for the abuse given out to him here and on other sites?

He doesn't deserve that and it's evidence that our support is turning into the fickle, Sky driven nonentities we were calling other teams support not so long ago.

Imo marveaux is another Cole Gerrard Meireles even lucas player, attacking centre midfielder.Yes he may be able to play wide but surely we should by a specialist wide player rather than another player who drifts in for a shot.I can not see the point of buying offensive midfielders and making them play in their own half on the right or left.I hope we get a new manager who can get the best out of our players. Roy hinted last night he was working with players who can not adapt to his style.Stating he needed more Skrtle Greek Kuyt type players.in other words he wants us to play like Joe Royles dogs of war.

So Carlton Cole is back on the Liverpool Radar! could be worse, we could keep playing Torres week in week out, the last few games he has been a liability. N`gog played a great game, holding the Ball up and showing comitment and for that got subbed!, Torres on the other hand chassed after nothing and held on to nothing, he needs a good shock or needs to go.
As for Lucas, he is one of our best players, when played as Gerrard should be played, the pair could rip appart defences accross the world. Allow Lucas to run Forward and he plays twice as good, he is not a Deffensive midfielder he needs to be allowed to run forward, he does not need replacing.
Why is Kelly not used and Johnson played further forward, Johnson can and will cause trouble to any defender and can also cross a ball, Kelly is looking good but needs more games.
If all players were played in the roles they are best at then we would not be in this situation.
Hodgeson will be forced out this next week and Kenny and Phil Thomson will take over till the end of the season and deppending on how results go could be given another 2 seasons.
Football is a team game, not 11 individuals like Hodgeson has them playing.

Personally, I believe that NESV have been thinking about replacing Roy for a while and know that both performances and results are absolutely dire, I think they'll act sooner rather that later.

I'm assuming that most of us saw the LFCTV call-in show that Henry, Werner and Ayre all took calls from fans yeah? Right, let me explain why I think things are about to change.

Tom Werner is now the Club Chairman so he basically calls the shots. Now, he said about recent results being "unacceptable" but did give his backing to Hodgson, for now.

John Henry also confirmed that he had held talks with Kenny Dalglish about having a more "substantial" role within the club.

Also, when they took over, they promised that they would listen to fans. Well, I think its safe to say that 90%+ of callers that night all spoke about Hodgson and practically called for a change.

So, to sum up, I think something will happen soon, but when, no one other that Henry and Werner knows. Given what Werner said about results being unacceptable, Roy's position surely is now all but over. And given what Henry said about Kenny having a more substantial role in the club, then surely that's a hint that he would become an interim manager should they release Roy before the end of the season?

I have got decent contacts within the club, but right now, no one knows exactly what is going on. Neither Henry or Werner are in the UK, but as I said earlier, there is meant to be a video conference between the manager and NESV at some point today although details of the conference are unknown

And those regular posters/ readers of this sight, trust Macca. He knows te score! I said about a week or so ago that Comolli has recommended Deschamps to Werner and he confirmed that, he knows his stuff! And just to finish off, Deschamps is definitely under consideration, but I wouldn't expect him to be appointed mid-season.

Jay.

=====================
Roy was visibly annoyed and upset by last nights performance on the LFCTV call in after the game. He realises Hodgson is not up to it.

I just read an interesting article on Click Liverpool about last night's dire performance. And for all those people slating our team, players etc. . did you know that 8 of our starting line-up last night featured in the fantastic 4-0 drubbing of Rea Madrid (which i was fortunate to be there) not so long ago.

See how far we have fallen under Hodgson?

I think everyone should get off Fernando's back, I play as a forward and if I was stuck upfront chasing hoofed up balls for a team that clearly isn't motivated at all by current tactics and man management then my head would be down too.

I have lost count of the amount of times a manager has lost their job in the prem and the team has picked up their game with the new man in charge, we need a breath of fresh air, someone who isn't afraid to lose by having a go. I believe this team has enough to challenge if we would only play!

Just got back from the game lads. For those of you that don't get the chance to get there, the reason everyone booed when Ngog went off was as it should have been that lazy sulky get Torres that got hooked off not Ngog. Sure he might be 10 times the player of David but played with about a hundredth of his passion. A disgrace to the shirt for our supposed best player. This guy is already back in Spain and the sooner we get shot of him the better. RED77

{Editor's Note: Don't expect Lucas to leave in Jaunary, nor another left winger to arrive. If Gervinho comes it will be to cover the roll of striker, but he can play pretty much any attacking role.}

im not expecting lucas to leave in january, but in summer perhaps. i don't like him much and i desperately want him to suceed but he needs to go to spain or italy to become that quality player. and surely playing gervinho up front would be bad because that's another player out of position. please does anybody share my view that joe cole shpuld play every game?

I believe Hodgson to be a genuinely decent and honourable man. The job is too big for him especially after slagging off the fans last night. Surely he realised he was an interim manager who would get 1 season max.
Of those that played last night, i'd give Gerrard 5 out of 10 and the rest between 1 and 4 out of ten. Appalling. What's all the pass back to Reina so he can hit the ball long ball style ?
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

The pass backs to Reina was because Wolves squeezed the play, like we should, and no-one was moving into space or trying to create space. It was a bunch of players that looked uninterested and none of them can say they had a good game. We want players who show passion, pride, spirit and the minimum requirement . . . . commitment.

Its safe to say that nobody wants Roy at the club, but I don't like the romanticized idea of King Kenny being installed as interim manager. . call me cynical but hes been out of management since he left newcastle in the 90's, don't get me wrong he'd command 100% respect from the players and staff, but its my personal opinion that we should install someone with abit more of a freshness about them, someone who is aware of who Liverpool FC are and our great history, someone who can learn what it is to be apart of that history and embrace it. The days of the legendary boot room have almost faded into obscurity, we need to get back to what Liverpool did best for 25+ years, and that was breeding successful coach after successful coach, with a hunger and desire to achieve and the respect that comes with the tradition and values that this Bill Shankley built! I believe the main reason players shun Liverpool FC these days in favour of the big money deals on the table from the Mancs and the Cockney-ovs is not just that players are motivated by money, but because we have lost the sense of tradition and the pride of pulling on the shirt, stepping out onto the hallowed turf and hearing the roar of the Anfield crowd, as the world famous kop sends shivers down your spine with the songs of old. I'm not gonna say I think . . should be the next Liverpool manager, I would like to see us bring back one or 2 old faces possibly Roy Evans, Phil Thompson, maybe even Robbie Fowler, as part of the coaching staff supporting whoever does become the next Anfield gaffer. . Whoever does take charge should be mentored by King Kenny in what it is too be Liverpool manager, and that is honest, and true to the fans, no hiding behind excuses, no lets look at the positives, I for one wanna hear our boss come out and tell it like it is, if we play awful and don't deserve to win, come out and say it don't hide behind injuries or bad decisions by the ref. He should be in the dressing room drumming it into the players that the Anfield crowd is waiting for them outside and if they go out and give 100% every week, then they're give them 100% in return, if they need any more motivation than that then they need to be shown the Anfield exit door. I know this is a bit of a rant but it's how I feel we should go forward as a club. . what do you guys think? and would any of the eds like to comment on my opinion? {ed's note - I agree almost entirely, it is time to move forward, but that doesn't mean we need to forget what it was that brought us here.}

Just one of the many things that is annoying the life out me with Roy Hodgson is the snide dig that he has had at the fans, with his comment about his disappointment that he is not experiencing the support that LFC fans are famous for.

I would suggest to Mr Hodgson that the reason for that might just be the other thing that LFC fans are renowned for and that is for being a very knowledgeable crowd. A quality that you are on record as admiring about LFC fans.

Just maybe, Mr Hodgson, the knowledgeable LFC crowd can see that you are completely out of your depth at our club. Your tactics, your dismal results record, your total disconnect with the fans and the club, your shocking interview comments and your ridiculous public face rubbing ritual we just don't want.

We are at LFC for life. It runs through our blood. This is our religion. You are nothing more than a travelling, temporary addition to the wage bill.

You have done nothing, achieved nothing that merits your name being mentioned in the same breath as our previous illustrious managers.

You are clearly a very nice gentleman but I do not support you in your capacity as manager of our club. Good luck with whatever you go on to do in your career but please leave now.

Frenchy.

Based on tonights very very poor performance. We have to start thinking about a massive shak up at Liverpoool.

These players do not deserve to wear the red of my beloved club

OUT!

Kyrgiakos
Johnson
Konchesky (Not a clue why we bought him)
Poulsen
Maxi
N'Gog
Lucus
Torres (Yes I said it Torres. He just is interested in playing for us and feels he can turn up and play whenever it suits him. Cash in while we still can).
Kuyt
El Zhar
Insua
Aquilani

These players are either just not good enough. Or do not show enough consistency to play for Liverpool. Some would say I am mad to include Torres but if you saw him today you would know he just doesn't want to play for us anymore.

Not even gonna bother put in who I think will replace this lot. JUST GET RID! !

Our players have been playing 4-5-1 or 4-2-3-1 for the best part of last 6 years. . . . .

We are short of strikers. . . .

There's a rumour regarding Liverpool not being able to secure Jan targets due to the current form/ manager status? This true ed?

BTW that was by far the worst liverpool performance I ever seen. As a team, we have no system of play. As fans, we've become over critical. What we're saying is correct, but there's a way we should say things. Becoming volatile to our own player during the match is stripping our credit as the worlds best supporters. At the mo, we're simply not. We need to get our own house in order before we criticise every one else. I suggest organising correct demonstrations - such as after match sit ins etc. But, bringing a sense of humour and PRIDE.

We've been embarrassed enough lately by money sniffing freaks (from the board down to players), so lets not embarrass our selves any further. So during those 90mins, lets get our game faces on. As that's all we can do.

EportRed {ed's note - very true unfortunately, but can you blame a player being put off right now? We are playing poorly and the manager is unwanted, why would you join when a new guy could come in and not want you?}

Editor do you think that lucas had a good game? because he didn't he tackled barely anyone and whenever he passes 7/ 10 times the opposition get it. but everyone on this site seems to think hes improved but i don't see it at all he is not good enough for liverpool. if we want a defensive midfielder it should be banega or lassana diarra they are both class and less than 15million i would love to see one of them arrive. also i noticed that joe cole is actually one of our most comitted players, he put in so much effort to the game and should play over meireles who did pretty bad yesterday. you can tell that torres still loves liverpool he was frustrated that we a bad and he desperately needs a partner he is brilliant player and was trying hard. we desperately need width and sylvain marveux will provide it probably on the right because a left winger is targeted gervinho and a.young. a striker should definitly be our main target but i just don't know who we can possibly sign. honda should be signed he is amazing. what do you think editor? about my post?

Liverpool need rebuilding, Hodgson is not the man to do it. Using Chelsea last season as a example, Ancelotti spent a good amount of time on touchline, talking to his players, and when at the bench - chatting with Wilkins - Hodgson looks and shakes his head and rubs his face, and Sammy Lee and Mike Kelly are not football geniuses. Liverpool would do well to bring in Dalglish at this stage. Next season, depending on his situation, bringing Hyypia back to the club in some capacity coach or asst manager. He would set up the line of potential future managers. Hyypia, Carragher, Gerrard. In recent years, all our managers have had a link or developed one with the club. Benitez and Houllier are loved in Liverpool. Evans was from the bootroom, Souness is/ was a Liverpool legend. . We need a manager who has that link, bringin the bootroom culture back - the only one at present is Kenny.

It might be too late for Roy, and I'd like Martin Oneill to take over if Roy has to leave. He will at least make the players fight for the ball!

Mate, being a supporter is just that, SUPPORT YOUR TEAM. Go to ManUre if you want to be a glory supporter. Yes we have a proud history, but we are a club going through massive changes, time is needed. These are the times when our club needs us the most. We pride ourselves on being passionate fans and not as blinkered and fickle as all the others. Well it pains me to say it, but a lot of so called fans on here are just as bad as the others and do not deserve to be part of our family.
Changes are needed and changes will be made. Nothing can be done player wise until ?Jan (not far away now) and yes we need a change of manager. NESV are not stupid they will know what is required and will be putting their ideas forward once they are comfortable with everything else.
Ed, O'Driscoll turned down Sheff Utd, what you think?
Also Boas signed a contract extension so looks like he is out of the running for now.

(I understand, correct me if I am wrong Eds that AFC Liverpool was set up as an alternative to Liverpool FC and not as a protest club as FC United?)

And now for a rant. .

If you are reading this Fernando Torres please either play or go. To turn up pull on the shirt, get paid your wages and show the lack of interest and passion you have being doing of late and especially last night is disrespectful and insulting to this great club and its loyal fans. You are a quality player who is injury free so what's the excuse? I am sure supporters will understand your frustration with Roy but that does not excuse your complete lack of effort or commitment - all it shows is petulance and immaturity - grow up, get a grip and rise above it. Roy, if you won't go at least have the decency to bench Torres and start with Babel and Ngog - good work lads, by the way, at least you're both giving it a go!

With reference to Ngog. This is his third season at Liverpool. I realise he is still fairly young but he simply is never going to be good enough for Liverpool. Remember Fowler, Owen and Rush had become top Premier League and International strikers by the time they had reached age 21. The only reason I believe he has been offered a new contract is to 'protect his transfer value'. I think he will be playing in france next season.

After the dull home performance against the bottom team in the prem, something needs to happen and quickly. Do we stick or twist. . . . .and is so when? Before an important game or after, by which time more points may have slipped by. We have the team to be in the top six, no question. . .a few additions - wingers would be nice (The french guy is all but complete by the sounds of it) and another for the right Gervinho? then a striker and a LEFT back to replace konchesky. . . . . we can still push on and up, we are not a million miles away as everyone is taking points off each other this season - if we had won our games in hand, we could in effect be 6th - after the start we have had, that ain't bad. .

Latest Transfer Rumours! Sergio Aguero to link up with Maxi Rodriguez! Only it isn't Aguero coming here to Liverpool, it's Maxi going back to Athletico to make room for Sylvain Marveaux. Part of the reason Aguero & his missus and kid spent Christmas with the Rodriguez family.

Hey Ed. I don't know why everyone is blaming torres, when the problem is hodgson.Torres is top top player, all he knows is to score goals and loads of them. When roy sets us up to play so badly he can't just take the ball from reina and go to the other end score. Instead of trying to link midfielders and forwards he's trying to link goalkeeper and forwards.We should play to our strength and our stengths are gerrard and torres. we have to get the best out of them. Even after alonso left torres had a good scoring ratio last season because rafa got the best out of him and we played to our stengths which is minimal. But hodgson doesn't play to our stengths. He's one disgrace to football managers. He's turned us into a bigger budget fulham. Ed what's your views and do you think roy will get the sack soon. ?

The reason why Roy should go is because we lost at home to a team whose form is DLLLLLLLLLLLL. We lost against a team in that form at home. Unbelievable. Any news on Roy Ed? {ed's note - nothing yet, but I have a feeling Roy will be asked to hand in his resignation today, or it could just be wishful thinking.}

From his time at blackburn he'll never resign. Hope he does tho. With the postponed interview there must be a reason behind it. Not just chance that it's been postpone after we lose against wolves. I'd still imagine he'll be manager this time next week :(.

Doesn't matter who we sign with Woy in charge. Its obviously too big a job for him, nice bloke though he is. Just been on LFC website & some people saying he is the right man for the job etc. . . All i can say is these people CANNOT have been at the ground last night. Playing players out of position with no obvious pattern of play, it was THE worst reds performance I have ever seen. . & as for the club 'rewarding' Ngog with a new 5year deal. . . as Stan, (the 80year old who sits next to me), said " that lad will never be a striker as long as I have a hole in my apse". I bet the equally s* te Derek Kuyt ( he looks like he should be called Derek), who admittedly, tries very hard, must wake up contemplating suicide everyday knowing that that donkey turd Ngog will play up front instead of him!
As for rumours/ wishlists

O'neil as short term manager ( 6mths & then 1yr rolling contract etc)

TO THIS COMMENT:

Don't know why so many are calling for Rafa to come back. Look what he has done to Inter. Also every club he seems to have managed, he left in turmoil.

Valencia, Liverpool and now Milan.

seems to me that your judging rafa on his last season in charge when so much was happening within the club with h&g. that job was impossible at that time any top manager would of struggled under them circumstances. h&g was dug in and going nowhere until they got massive profits and that ment money on debt and nothing for club development nothing but broken promises, rafa was trying to inform the fans, fight for the future of the club and manage a team at the same time and still finished in a european place. h&g left the club in turmoil laden in debt with a broken heart not benitez

rafa was with us 5 years and took us to 2 champions league finals wining one of them, won the fa cup and qualified for champions league football for 4 years, generating countless millions. imagin were the club would be if we never generated that money? he played good football (apart from his last season that's understandable, went into detail above) and give us good memories and it was good to be a liverpool supporter. imagin how much he would make for the club now its debt free plus the mans a winner he hates to loose

benitez did make mistakes in the transfer market i can't defend that, everyones not perfect. he only acts on dossiers and information the scouts give him plus look who he attracted torres, mash, alonso and reina, god only knows who else he could attract given support and a good transfer management set up. can't see any stars wanting to play for liverpool if we have clueless managers like hodgeson in charge

Today's Press Conference has been postponed until tomorrow. Liverpool are insisting that this is nothing 'sinister', and feel that it would be better to do the post-match Wolves and pre-match Bolton conference tomorrow.

However, I have heard a few whispers around Anfield and Melwood that the main reason behind this is that there will be a video conference held at some point today between Hodgson, Werner and Henry. The details of this conference are unknown.

Jay.

i would love to be a fly on the wall for that meeting, however i don't belive roy is going just yet, yes is time is coming to an end, by Feb he will be gone KK will take over and we will be fighting a relagation battle, thankyou Roy you wa* er and hicks and gillete for messing our club up its going to take a while to get us back to the top but lets be honnest and i hope nesv are reading this, Roy h* k off you are not welcome and you are not suitable to take our club fwd.

"So now its the fans fault. I reckon if 11 of us turn out against Bolton on Saturday we will put on a better display. Anyone fancy a game"

Ha. Well just don't forget i'm the right back in the top tier, even though i told the Ed i was left footed.

But if you want i could try and tackle you when the ball comes close to us, we both pull out, we both move to kick it again, we both pull out again and let the ball run onto the tool who played left back last year against us and plop it into an empty net? Takes a bit of practice to be able to get so close to each other and put each other off, but we'll give it a go.

You can be called Kyriakos and i can be called Strkel. Anyone fancy being Konchesky? No? No takers? Going for a free? Still no. . . .? How about Kuyt? Cole? Jovanovic? Babel? Poulsen? Ngog? Johnson? Gerrard? Torres? Arr the gentleman at the back, what's your name? Mancini? Ok you can have him would you like all the others as well? What's that? Do we want Bridge, Wright-Phillips, Adebayor, Johnson (Michael)? I'm sorry i don't know who the hell you're talking about. Never heard of them, what's that? Hodgson knows them very well. . . .?

Well if we can't laugh at ourselves

I tell you what, that really was a rant about guesswork further down the page. Do you have to go on a rant about the glaringly obvious and speak to everyone like they are not allready aware of it, it drives me mental. let people dream if they want, I'm quite capable of deciphering whats total rubbish thanks and I enjoy some of the outrageous rumours, I'm not looking for a pointless rant when I log on to this site. . .

Anyway, It has to be time for Roy to go now, what does everyone think? I can't stand watching my team play like they should be sitting in 12th place in the league, 16 points from top and 5 from the bottom with Woy saying stuff like "the famous Anfield support hasn't really been there". It was there Woy and now it isn't because your tactics are pants, you approached this job as if we were a mid table outfit and that's what you are getting. Please leave our club, or, get some bells and start going at teams like we should, bring in a striker, 2 wingers and a left back for starters in Jan and you will have a chance.

Is this left sided player any good that we are supposedly signing Marveaux? anyone know? I think Roy will be gone today gutted for him though he seems a nice bloke but playing Rafa's tactics and badly. Everyone needs to take a look at some of our players though end of the day they are just as much to blame. Every summer we have a game of will Torres stay or go and after watching him last night i don't give 2 s* tes if he does go everyone will say he didn't get the service but when he did he lost the ball and Ngog didn't get much service but he fought hard and constantly tried to win the ball for him self whilst Torres did bugger all. Konchesky also aload of rubbish he's terrible i would rather insua still be in that position. And the centre backs were shocking partly because they were also trying to cover left and right backs as they wern't getting back in postion quick enough. Alot of people been slagging off the rumour of us going for Huth but he'd do a better job than those lot in defence last night. Johnson didn't do bad but should be a right winger and Kelly should be back there. Everyones also needs to remember Hodson has only signed 4 players and 3 of them are s* te although im hoping cole gets his act together but look how many of these under performers are rafas signings. Don't know what why people want Roy Evans back he didn't do that much in the 90's I'd much rather Kenny take over i also think Sammy should go too and bring in Rush.

{Editor's Note: Marveaux is a good player - and can play across midfield.}

I am sorry to intervene but I do not believe that the players we have are sub standard. . . . .

We have good and very good players but Roy Hodgson doesn't use tactics to suit his players. . .

Our players have been playing 4-5-1 or 4-2-3-1 for the best part of last 6 years. . . . .

We are short of strikers. . . .

Editor do you think that lucas had a good game? because he didn't he tackled barely anyone and whenever he passes 7/ 10 times the opposition get it. but everyone on this site seems to think hes improved but i don't see it at all he is not good enough for liverpool. if we want a defensive midfielder it should be banega or lassana diarra they are both class and less than 15million i would love to see one of them arrive. also i noticed that joe cole is actually one of our most comitted players, he put in so much effort to the game and should play over meireles who did pretty bad yesterday. you can tell that torres still loves liverpool he was frustrated that we a bad and he desperately needs a partner he is brilliant player and was trying hard. we desperately need width and sylvain marveux will provide it probably on the right because a left winger is targeted gervinho and a.young. a striker should definitly be our main target but i just don't know who we can possibly sign. honda should be signed he is amazing. what do you think editor? about my post?

{Editor's Note: Don't expect Lucas to leave in Jaunary, nor another left winger to arrive. If Gervinho comes it will be to cover the roll of striker, but he can play pretty much any attacking role.}

I was expecting to wake up today to hear that Roy has been sacked. Well, it still hasn't happened and I don't know why. NESV say they are all about stats. Well, there should be enough statistical information available at the moment to justify any decision they want to make for removing Roy from his position immediately.

The two most alarming statistics are:
1. 13 wins in 82 away games of Premier League football for a team managed by Roy Hodgson.
2. Liverpool's worst start to a top flight season since relegation in 1953-54.

Add to that a number of other disasters into the equation and we have all the reasons needed for NESV to be allowed to make their first big decision and bring in a new manager;
1. The signings of Konchesky & Poulsen that Roy oversaw in the Summer.
2. Losing to Wolves, Blackpool and Northampton at Anfield.
3. Slating his team and the fans through the media.
4. New backroom staff who don't seem to be having an impact on the players.

We're looking for a new Shankly to get us out of this mess. Who is that? Well, Owen Coyle has all the attributes to be that man. Attacking football, good squad harmony, can spot a decent player in the market. .but furious when he doesn't win.

That would be my choice, but I don't know what NESV are going to do. They need to act fast though or they will soon become the target of the fans anger.

It's heartbreaking, depressing and embarrassing to look at the remaining fixtures and not have the confidence to think that Liverpool can get another 20 points to stay in the division.

It might be too late for Roy, and I'd like Martin Oneill to take over if Roy has to leave. He will at least make the players fight for the ball!

The problem NESV have, is getting the manager they want and IF he is available.

The immediate problem is turning around the results. Hodgson will not be able to do that.

I think we're all missing a trick here. Fair enough Roy must take a lot of the blame and his aftermatch comments certainly aren't helping him to warm the hearts of our supporters, BUT the players must take responsibility also! And despite if we're all Gerrard or Torres lovers these two especially need to stand up and be counted, afterall they're supposedly the only two players of top notch quality in the squad but at min i'm failing to see this. Everyone at the club lets get your acts together and I may even suggest last nights match fee's should be donated to charity then at least something goods come of a disgraceful and abject showing

Reading the majority of the posts on here, I am assuming the vast majority of 'posters' do not go regularly to matches (or in some cases, I doubt they watch football at all) but for those that do, we all need to be ashamed of ourselves for both the atmosphere at Anfield last night (which was the flatest I have witnessed in my 22 years) and the way certain players where singled out for some very unfair treatment and abuse from so called fans,

Lets get something straight - Konchesky is not a great player and will never set the world alight but we need to remember he is of the calibre we can attract at this moment in our history, so lets support the guy and, lets be completely honest, he played an great deal better than our so called 'star' player, Torres, who was a disgrace yet again last night.

I do not believe Hodgson is the man for the job, but he is still OUR manager, and whilst we are all entitled to our opinion, if you want to abuse your own manager / players, go support another team! Hodgsons comments about the crowds negativity effecting the players is spot on! So lets stop.

The club has given us all some amazing times and memories over the years, so lets support them ALL in this difficult time.

I do not believe any major signings will be made until Hodgson is replaced, and we will struggle to attract a new 'quality' manager mid season, so expect this the current form to continue until the end of the season. And, start supporting the team

Mate. this is drivel. Your ideas are about 8 losses out of date.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Mate, being a supporter is just that, SUPPORT YOUR TEAM. Go to ManUre if you want to be a glory supporter. Yes we have a proud history, but we are a club going through massive changes, time is needed. These are the times when our club needs us the most. We pride ourselves on being passionate fans and not as blinkered and fickle as all the others. Well it pains me to say it, but a lot of so called fans on here are just as bad as the others and do not deserve to be part of our family.
Changes are needed and changes will be made. Nothing can be done player wise until ?Jan (not far away now) and yes we need a change of manager. NESV are not stupid they will know what is required and will be putting their ideas forward once they are comfortable with everything else.
Ed, O'Driscoll turned down Sheff Utd, what you think?
Also Boas signed a contract extension so looks like he is out of the running for now.

LFC are only on course to finish the Premier League campaign in exactly the same position as Fulham FC finished last season - 12th .

We can only hope for a good cup run now .

LFC deserves better , the game of football deserves better .

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I have extrapolated our results this season to see where we will finish and the results are scary.

Pld W D L F A Pts
38 13 8 17 44 49 47

Last year Fulham finished 12th with

Pld W D L F A Pts
38 12 10 16 39 46 46

Last year was arguably RH best season in football (considering he got to the UEFA Cup final as well). It's no wonder he thinks he is doing a good job, he considers us the same calibre of football club as Fulham (no disrespect to Fulham).

Also his comments last night that no team playing in the same league should expect to beat any other team just shows his also-ran mentality and his expectancy for us. This guy is a very mediocre manager and not what we need or want at the helm of our great club.

Also one of the Eds mentioned last night that he was previously asked to resign on numerous ocassions when manager of Blackburn but continually refused believing he was doing a good job.

This is very worrying and it seems that the only way we will get rid of this deluded idiot is if NESV (FSG) sack him.

No matter wat team or what players we put out, with hodgson at the helm very few of our players will not perform to their best. Hodgson will continue to play the same style and with the same under performing players (skrtel, konchesky, kuyt), he is too stuborn to change anything which shows he has no love for our club.

My team wud be:
Reina
Johnson Kelly Agger Aurelio
Maxi Meireles Lucas Jovanovic
Gerrard Torres

Gerrard is playing far too defensive at the moment so in order to stop that play him upfront as he can bring the best out of torres.

Just wanted to let the greatest fans in the world into a little known secret about news down south. I know Paul Konchesky and his family through my step sons and I just wanted you to know what he has had to deal with recently. One of his kids was taken seriously ill last year and was hospitalised, the condition needs to be monitored and is a constant worry to him and his wife. He has also had to play in a lot more games whilst not being fully fit as he has had to cover for Aurelio whilst he has been injured longer term. He is still trying to find his game and he knows his mums comments have not helped to endear him to you guys but please bear with him as the boos are really not helping anyone.
Onto the rumour circulating round here, Carlton Cole will not be coming, initial enquiries were made about Scotty Parker but he is reluctant to move his family back up north and may consider a move to the Spurs but only at the end of the season. Connor Wickham is another on the radar but again his family are concerned about having to relocate so far north, I understand that plans have been put in place to find the family a home as his parents would have to move too. He is a nice lad but not the sharpest tool in the box and would need a lot of family support around him.

LFC FANS* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

After last nights horrendous showing Roy needs to realise we are no more then an average mid table premier league team.

If we want to get back into the top four we need to get rid of the following: -
Konchesky
Babel
Poulsen
Maxi
Degen
Aquilani
Jovanovic
Insua
El Zhar

All the above are not LFC standard and never will be.

We then need to buy world class players who will actually make a difference instantly on the pitch.
We need: -
a Left back
a Left Midfield
a Right Midfield
a Striker

I would bring in: -
LB - Coentrao
LM - Adam Johnson
RM - Ashley Young / Elia
ST - Llorente / Adebeyor

These 4 players will cost alot of moeny there is no denying that. However it would be pointless to go out and buy cheaper options as this will not give us a strong enough team to break into the top 4.

My squad for 2011 onwards would be: -
GK - Reina / Jones
LB - Coentrao / Aurelio
CB - Agger / Carragher
CB - Srktel / Wilson
RB - G Johnson / Kelly
LM - Adam Johnson / Cole
CM - Gerrard / Spearing
CM - Meireles / Lucas
RM - Young or Elia / Shelvey
ST - Torres / Ngog
ST - Llorente or Adebeyor / Kuyt

This would put us back on track.
Let me know if you guys agree or disagree

As a long time supporter of Liverpool Football Club I am saddened by yesterday's performance. Whilst I agree that the manager must be accountable, the (whole) team that crossed "the white line" must also take responsibility for their actions, or rather non-actions. Really looking forward to playing in the Chanpionship! I trust that contract conditions include for this provision.
As an aside, am I the only football supporter who finds watching cricket to be much more preferrable than last night's dross?

I'd just like to begin by saying I haven't any disastrous rumours to deliver. I purely want to say that I know Roy isn't doing well, but I think every manager needs time. He's doing what he thinks is best for this amazing football club and you can't fault him for that. Although we played awfully last night, I for one would love to see him given a bit more support and belief. Any other manager who comes in is only going to pick the same team, although I know tactically they would be different.

So yeah, this isn't a rumour, just a plea. Get behind Roy because he has the best interests of the club at heart. . believe me.

The best possible outcome of this transfer window is roy gets sacked and we get a few new players not only that but I think the sacking will lift a few of our so called star players torres looked unintrested last night but who can blame him. I personly feel he is suffering from negative taticts and lack of service I feel under a new manager he will flourish. we need to spend big in this window and the next just to keep up with some if this seasons pace setters.

It's clear the player are not behind Roy

There where a disgrace and are cowards and not fit to wear a red shirt but so where are so called Fans

What happened to getting behind our manager and team

when times are hard

Since he came we have never got behind him Rafa left a mess

and i know he isn't first choice for the fans but bringing back Kenny get real he lost the Plot at the end and remember celtic and Newcastle

why Roy is here support him and the players when they are on the pitch

any new players who where in the stands last night would think twice about joining a club with no atmosphere we are living in the past we have no right to win games but we have a right to get behind are players and they need it more when things arn't going well not when we are 3-0 up

The team he put out last night and against Newcastle should be beating these teams with ease the players need to stand up and be counted

And Torres is A joke! no effort what so ever never comes out and says i'm playing bad just lets the Manager take the flack

Ed i seriously can't see Torres being a Liverpool player at the end of the summer transfer window the way we are playing, what do you think? {ed's note - is he playing for us now?}

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Im sick and tired of Torres getting a hell of a lot of flack from the fans, Sure he hasnt been at his best, but then hes had to contend with long ball after long ball, the last few seasons under Rafa, the ball was played to his feet where he could actually do something with the ball.

Lots of people say that he should be sold, saying that he doesn't want to play for the club. blah blah blah.

Torres hasnt had the service he's had in the past.

Bring back Rafa and Paco!

Roy needs to move on, he has shown time and time again he is not Liverpool material. Judge me after 10 league games he said, I wasn't impressed - now we're on 18, does he want us to judge him now? I'm sorry but we're 3 points off the relegation zone, and 12 points off 4th spot. At this rate we look like Championship material, yes the nPower championship. We knew this season was a time for rebuilding, but this? John W Henry needs to show he means business here, get rid of the man now. We won't be able to attract the cream of the managerial world at present, so bringing the King back is the only solution.

This stinks of what Newcastle did a few seasons ago, completely losing the plot on the field, going to a legend to save them. . in that case unsuccessfully.

We are a club with no leadership on the field and even less off it. We are not just in decline, we are in a rapid free-fall, with no idea how to stop it, we need a new direction FAST. or we will be, joining the likes of the so called big clubs who have slipped out of the top tier of football. . .face it lfc fans we cannot live or dwell in the past, we can try to turn things around but. . .an almighty overhaul of the club (players & staff) needs to be addressed ASAP. SPINELESS/ GUTLESS/ EMBARRASSING AND SHAMEFUL is how I saw my club perform last night. Sort it out John/ Tom or you can forget about redeveloping Anfield, because you won't have enough fans left to fill what we have already let alone a 60k FIELD.

After the game yesterday Mr hodgson said we needed more players like Skyrtle Greek and Kuyt.They are his type of players, along with Konchesky and Poulsen of course seeing as he bought them.Infac the same 5 I would sell in January if I was in charge. Dan Agger as been frozen out because he doesn't like Roys hoofing tactics , now he is turning on the fans because we don't like the tactics. I sit in the Main stand watching our team play deep, inviting pressure, when I have seen us show no adventure in attack attack attack.that bought us our success under Bill Sir Bob Joe and Kenny. I was from day 1 of being linked with this guy telling fans, that we have nothing to look forward too.Kenny putting his own name forward hurt Roy and his now the apparent reason fans have not responded to him .I am sorry Roy if your side attacked you would have the fans in your hand.Buying and playing Hoofers when you don't have to that's why fans have turned.We are shouting for Kenny because we loved the style his team played Barnes and Nicol raiding down each flanks cutting back passes, or crossing the ball into the path of Aldo, Rush or Beardsley.Hansen and Lawrenson Bringing the ball out and passing it to one of our midfielders, then holding a high line by the centre circle.Destroying teams like Oxford and Wimbledon even destroying Brian Cloughs Forest, got the same treatment. We would have destroyed Wolves last night if you had have gone for them instead of allowing them to control the play. them.Kennys teams tried to win games that is why we loved him.

You know we all need to be a little careful in our reactions to last night's result and performance.

Whilst we all share the same frustrations and anger, we need to ensure we channel it in the correct way.

We do not want the owners having the opinion of us as moaning, never happy, typical modern day supporters which at the moment we have all allowed ourselves to become.

We need to ensure the right message is conveyed in the right manner for the message to really sink home.

Otherwise we just end up being treated like we don't care because what we have to say isn't being listened to because of the way we are projecting it across to the owners and that will just serve to rile us up even more.

Now i accept it is very difficult to keep a calm head but screaming 'Get that useless bar steward out of our f* king club' isn't going to win us any prizes.

Now i'm old school and i was bought up during this era from '74 onwards so this particular period the club is lurching through is even harder for me to endure.

You have to have the belief and trust the owners that they will be doing something about the current situation. They have said as much (in very political terms) that they find the results and performances unacceptable, their words not mine. That said last night would have gone a long, long way to affirming their opinion that changes need to be made.

The only issue i have is when the change is going to be made and who will replace Hodgson.

I haven't seen many proposals other than bring back Dalglish for an interim period. A lot of you thought sacking Rafa was a positive thing to do in the belief things would get better and look where we are now. Whatever you say about Hodgson, you said the same things about Rafa, you know you did so don't pretend otherwise.

I haven't got a clue on who should replace Hodgson. What a bloody mess. All i do know if we leave it until the summer there stands the very real possibility of relegation, certainly top 4 is not an issue worth talking about and neither is europa league to be honest.

The question is are we better off keeping hold of Hodgson in the belief we will get better and improve by the end of the season or sack him now?

If we sack him be prepared for that Fat Sam bum licking fergie chum and Martin 'hoof it' O'Neill to be front runners.

Is this any better than Rafa Benitez last season? And whilst i have cooled on the bring 'Rafa back campaign' he never should have gone in the summer.

That decision (to sack Rafa) infuriates me. But rather than scream abuse about Roy, let us discuss what we would do if we gave him and Sammy Lee their P45's.

Oh and one other thought on the mention of Lee. He was bought up on the 'Sir' Bob/ Fagan philosophy of football, looks like Lee has forgotten his roots but perhaps this boring chant i hear every other hour from manure fans that the banning of the back pass killed the Liverpool machine has some mileage in it??

I wonder how 'Sir' Bob would have faired today? Probably the league would have handed us the trophy last night? Probably.

30 Dec 2010 12:35:09
Hi all lfc fans, i am soooooo pissed off with whats going on at lfc at mo and with such insepid and undetermined displays like the one last night.
i also think as many others that sadly it is now definately time to sack roy hodgson. i do as well feel sorry for him in one way and that is he did inherit a poo side, and i only think now we r all realising how bad it is. and i do believe it wasnt the fault of rafa either. i blame our current plight on hicks and gillett as they did not back rafa when he wanted to sign villa and silva back in 2008. if the to twanks had stretched and bought these players we wouldn't be were we r now it all started when hicks and gillett told rafa he had to sell to buy them then that is when it all went wrong for us as a club from top to bottom. we were owned by liars and cheats.
But on the other hand roy should be sacked solely because he can't generate the necessary enthusiasm and commitment needed to win games consistently! !
i am so frustrated angry and bemused to the fact as others that even though alot of players at liverpool now shouldnt be wearing the red shirt we surely r good enough to beat teams like wolves, blackpool northampton newcastle etc.so it is obvious the players don't like his methods or approach it is also obvious as no player from the squad really has come out and publically backed him yet other than babel but that dosent surprise me as he is playing more now.
my main point is that i am airing my point of a certain ex liverpool manager is available now and he is waiting in his home in liverpool for a phone call that liverpool should make.
and that is MR R BENITEZ.
I am one of those fans that liked benitez, and believe if he had been backed back in 2008 to buy villa and silva who i am led to believe were willing to come at the time!
im sure we would have been not were we r now with the personnel we have now!
I know we would still have wanted the yanks out as they were crumbling the club and its heritage as well.
and i heard that rafa had donated a large amount of money when he was sacked to one of lfcs fan clubs is that true ed??
I therefore would welcome rafa back with open arms as he knows most of these players well and he surely would get us more consistent and playing as a team! !
he would still be here now if he had been given the right money and backing as he did when he bought torres in 2007.
ed i know alot of fans lost patience but i was told of a mate who gos to all the games that if it wasnt for the previous owners, and the new ones were in earlier, rafa would have got it right on the pitch with the right backing and we then wouldn't have ended up with players like koncheskey poulsen etc
What do u think ed? would u welcome him back? and he wouldn't cost a fee in terms of paying another club a fee, and he seems the right fit for us we trusted him up to the end why not again? ?
Because of all of the above, it is now certain we will have to spend big to regain a place back in the top 4 let alone challenging, and typing that pains me to thr core i love lfc so much and im sick now of excuses and broken promises! !
As roy evans said were not daft to know all is not well yet on and off the pitch but please mr henry and mr werner start making us all believe in our great club again we do pay good good money to watch this team its now time to watch quality not quantity of s* te! !

What do u all think and u ed rafa believe or not believe?? {ed's note - not Rafa, we already play enough mind numbing defensive football, I want to see us attack.}

I cannot stress enough the need to get rid of hodgeson, he should not be allowed to be manager for next few games, hes doin some real damage he offers nothing as manager it looks like his football brian is stuck in the eighties the way hes setting his teams up, if his plan A doesn't work hes got no plan B he carnt think fast enough. his tactical awareness is nill and offers no motivation for the players hes got no excuses all the pressure about the future of the club has gone, hes now had half a season in charge and hes got the team in a terrible state no wonder the players don't want to play for him these players are use to playing champions league football and hes got them playing championship football it must be soul distroying. The man is a f*ck up and why carnt management see this? every liverpool fan can. hes even having a dig about not getting support from the fans the mans delusional. . i think hes going down in history as the liverpools worst manager. really angry that he his still in charge now.

Am i stupid? Thta system works for Chelsea. Plus Sammy Lee is a knob.I hate the little chipmunk and Roy hasnt got a clue.Not one of our bak four last night is good enough either.Im gutted

Reading the majority of the posts on here, I am assuming the vast majority of 'posters' do not go regularly to matches (or in some cases, I doubt they watch football at all) but for those that do, we all need to be ashamed of ourselves for both the atmosphere at Anfield last night (which was the flatest I have witnessed in my 22 years) and the way certain players where singled out for some very unfair treatment and abuse from so called fans,

Lets get something straight - Konchesky is not a great player and will never set the world alight but we need to remember he is of the calibre we can attract at this moment in our history, so lets support the guy and, lets be completely honest, he played an great deal better than our so called 'star' player, Torres, who was a disgrace yet again last night.

I do not believe Hodgson is the man for the job, but he is still OUR manager, and whilst we are all entitled to our opinion, if you want to abuse your own manager / players, go support another team! Hodgsons comments about the crowds negativity effecting the players is spot on! So lets stop.

The club has given us all some amazing times and memories over the years, so lets support them ALL in this difficult time.

I do not believe any major signings will be made until Hodgson is replaced, and we will struggle to attract a new 'quality' manager mid season, so expect this the current form to continue until the end of the season. And, start supporting the team

Well I did post weeks ago that it would be interesting to see what happens when Gerrard was fit again. Where would he start? The answer was unfortunately square pegs into round holes! Meireles on the Right, Kuyt on the Left? What is that all about & probably one of our better players over the last 6 matches ( Maxi) not even on. So Roy seen fit to drastically change what was looking like a reasonably confident team, playing quite well & you seen the result last night. What would have been so wrong with starting with the same formation in midfield & Babel & Ngog up front? Roy just proved that he has no balls.

Having cooled down, I can now make a measured and informed view on whats going wrong at LFC. Clearly Roy wants to play a 4-4-2, and will not budge from this position, He wants to play Gerrard in central midfield, and he loves Skrtel, Soto and Dirk (judging from his post match interview), and his plan B for when things are going wrong is stick Soto up front.
The problem is that Roy doesn't seem to have grasped is that he has not got the players to implement a 4-4-2. At Fulham, he had players who were wingers - Gera, Dempsey, Davies - they may not be the best wingers, but they were wingers. .
Kuyt for all his graft and commitment will not consistently trouble full-backs by going on the outside and putting in crosses, he is a striker and should be played there. Our only natural winger is Maxi. Babel, Jovanovic, Kuyt, Pacheco, Ecclestone, Cole, Shelvey, and Meireles are all strikers or centre midfielders who've played on the wing.
Raul Meireles is a central midfielder, who in Gerrards absence has been driving our home displays alongside Lucas, to be put out wide because he can do a job is bad management.
Konchesky again had a poor game, constantly pulled out of position by Jarvis and Hunt creating acres of space for Ebanks-Blake.
Last night screamed out for Daniel Agger to be put into the 1st team, for all Soto's and Skrtel's commitment, neither are capable of a forward pass. Agger is probably one of the best centre backs in the league at coming forward and linking the play.
Torres again was ineffective, and he will remain so until the team start creating chances for him. Last night i remember a couple of instances of the "old" Torres - 1st the quick freekick for Meireles' chance and a long range effort that was blocked.
Babel came on and worked hard, without much success, he needs a run of games, something he hasnt had since his 1st season here to gain some form, a run of 20 minute bursts is not a run of games - the game vs Villa was a snippet of the player Babel could be upfront. He has 18months of his contract and considering we paid £12m+wages for him, were going to make a significant loss on him.
Liverpool are well stocked in central areas, in my view a striker should only be brought if our strikers are moved on (we have Torres, Kuyt, N'Gog, Babel, Jovanovic, Pacheco, Ecclestone). What we need is wingers, and Marveaux is a good start - a left winger who should walk into the team based on current form. Im not going to speculate who we should sign, but is should be wide players.

After just getting over the disappointment of the world cup im just as depressed now as ever, what i would like to see happen just for one game is for roy and lee to go and just ask stevie and nando how they would like to play and which players they would like on the pitch with them, no one would know better than the players themselves, stupid i know but at least we would know whether it is the team or roy, it shows how sad it is as they have not spoken about anything else on talksport since 6am this morn, so its not a blip as roy reckons, its rocking the football world, a very p@ssed off jimmybosun

Ed, did roy once say judge me after 10 games? Its 18 games and its the worst we have been in 50 years. its like aldo said on radio aswell as pundits on match of the day - do we stick with roy and give him money to splash out or do we just leave him until end of the season with what he has now. Sound like were stuck between a s* t and a fart but you have to speculate to accumalate, we need to start building and there's no time like the present. We never lost many times under rafa at anfield cos he turned it into a fortress smashin inter, real and juventus in his time there but roy lost to blackpool and wolves which is just a joke, people know that they can beat us and the way we are at the moment we will lose more at anfield. I hope john henry is a clever guy cos he really needs to pull some miracle out the hat! That's my rant over until the next match or press conference.

Ngog 4m
Jova 4m
Cole 3m (or my shout)
Soto 1m
Spearing 2m
El Zhar 1m
Degen Free (and I'll drive him wherever)

That's nearly 30m. If JH throws in another 20m, we could start to set things up for a league assault next year.

ARE YOU JOKING!

cole 3m kuyt 4m ngog 4m

ngog if was playing for villa or someone everybody would be saying buy him, hes very young skillful and scores when gets a decent chance! cole 3m? yeah maybe sell him but no less than 6/ 7 mil! kuyt is worth 8, but my main problem with this cozinoz is if we sell those players and we get the 50mil in total like you say! that buys 5 avg players or 2 world class if we are lucky, so that means next season we have no players and replaced them with not so much better!

think a little!

I understand your pain; the performance was hard to take, during this season more often than not the expectation to succeed has had a negative effect on our performance. In this cut throat business everyone has an opinion. Some based on fact some on memory, some on love.. some on fear. At the end of the day we all want the same thing. To succeed. Sadly success seems like a tunnel with the light at the end quickly becoming dimmer and dimmer. There was once a manager that instilled confidence in his players, there was once a manager that made sure every player on that pitch new exactly what job they were required to do and how to do it. There was once a man that made us fans proud and studied and planned everything in meticulous detail so much so that at times he was simply misunderstood. He backed every player in his squad, he backed the city and most importantly he backed his club and its fans. Rafael Benitez .. S.O.S.

Congratulation roy, you have taken the greatest side in british football ( at least until we are overtaken by man united in may) and turned us into an absolute circus. What i don't understand is that if roy was the manager of man united, chelsea, arsenal, spurs, city and even newcastle utd, wouldnt he have been fired after about 10 games already? Or is it because we do things the liverpool way? How many league titles have the liverpool way won us these past 20 years? Anyway, nesv should install king kenny as temp manager. But roy should go now. And bring rafa back? Why? Because we should rather draw wolves and blackpool than lose? No thanks. I want a manager who wants to win. And i hope its before the game at ot. I can see us getting a 6-0 hiding.
Ps roy f*** you.

Why doesn't Roy start to bring in the academy players E.G. Suso (Only 16 but how ld was Rooney?) and Raheem Sterling (Only 16 but same as Suso) both look very talented players, they need to adapt early to EPL. I think Hoarou will be a good signing but he seems another Crouch (don't get me wrong I think Crouch is a good striker) but he didn't fit in the team with Torres. Why are we bringing in this lad from Rennes when we near enough sealed the deal with Arda Turan?

He could concentrate on football , he's good at that!
King kenny back on board concentrating on youth and player recruitment! !
6 months contract see how he goes I think he deserves that

I am worried for Anfield manager Roy Hodgson. Seriously.

As the weeks go by he appears to be moving nearer any nearer to the loony bin. Perhaps he wasn't built to take the helm at a 'big club'
(Yes I know he managed Inter Milan, but that was more than a decade ago when he was a younger man) as he looks like he is losing it big time. The pressure is beginning to tell.
constant rubbing his face his forehead, head between his legs wondering what to do what not to do.

Well. What an absolute shambles. We were outplayed in every department on the pitch by a club that is bottom of the league. The only 'luck' part of it was we only lost 1-0. The booing when N'Gog was replaced was thoroughly well deserved (it was aimed at Hodgson). Babel should have been brought on for Torres not N'Gog - Torres was absolutely dire. On the subject of Torres, I have been giving him the benefit if the doubt up to now (injury, confidence etc). No longer. He was being blatantly lazy last night. He avoided all physical contact, ran about 2 feet and looked totally disinterested. The only good thing about his game will be that the laundry won't have to wash his strip. Konchesky - what a joke.

It was shocking - absoultely disgraceful. People pay good money to watch that and Hodgson should be ashamed of himself.

As for Mervaux, if he signs after watching that rubbish then he must be stupid is all can say. Apart from which, who is being canned to make way for him? Maxi? Kuyt? Babel? Cole?

I am saddened.

Surely Woy is gone for all money now- to lose to Wolves at home- yes they hadn't played for over 2 weeks, but surely that just means they are refreshed and more hungry- maybe they just all want an easy pay cheque.

I haven't got any names for replacement, but certainly would love to see someone with a more attacking approach- our biggest fault is we seem to be happy with a 1-0 result which backfires when we can't even get that 1 goal.

I can honestly say that ive gone past caring who we sign this window, i just want hodgson sacked. the mans negativity and gloom is spreading through the whole of the players and supporters. i don't claim to know anyone connected with the club but it is pretty obvious that the players have no belief or desire to play for hodgson.
nesv have put us on a better financial footing than i can remember and this should be a great time of hope and excitement but one man has managed to kill all of that in just a few months, roy.
to the likes of blair mayne, i totally understand your frustration, but i don't think turning on nesv is going to achieve anything. if bolton play like they did yesterday against chelsea, i think they will beat us and we will all be put out of our misery. i think nesv will have to act and remove hodgson. as for a temporary replacement, i think one of the ed's put roy evans forward. the old romantic in me would love this, its the last time we played proper sexy football.

A friend of mine who went to the game said that whenever Glen Johnson tried to get forward to support the attck, Hodgson and Sammy Lee pounced out of their dug out telling him to get back, becaus ethey were scared of E Banks-Blaike's pace. This is pathetic against botoom of the table who have not won a single game away from home.
And surely it would have made sense to play Gerrard down the left with Kuyt down the right, as Kuyt only has a right foot?
Technical and Tactical knowledge and wilingness to attack openly were seriously lacking last night, i do not want to watch a team sit for 90 minutes looking for a lucky break or goal, at home!
Also our expectations and hopes are different are they Roy, get gone you useless P* *K, we are Liverpool, This is Anfield and We are not English, We are Koppites, we do not hope, we simply expect that a club of our stature should be doing well, one of the elite, if you want to continue to slate our hopes and ambitions apply for the Burnley job, who appear to have the same lowly expectations as yourself, fool!

To me it is very simple for Damien Commoli, When he goes to advise John Henry about taking Liverpool to the Premiership title (John Henrys words not mine). He should have a list of 5-7 players and say here you go John, buy these and you may. .MAY! have a chance of getting back into the top four. .

Now im not stupid, I understand its another slow building process etc etc but we need at least 5 major signings for our first team, yes 3 or 4 young kids in the squad, potential, when was the last time potential became reality, especially for us, 10 years ago with Gerrard.


I can't take the constant rumours of 2 million pound wingers (like Stoke), signing Robert Huth (from Stoke), Gerviniho (like Gyan at Sunderland). . If we sign players like this then we are starting of on the wrong foot already. .

This window lets pool all our resources and make a genuine bid for a player we may be able to get. Ashley Young maybe. .

We need a left back, 2 wingers a forward and a world class centre half as we don't have one at the club. We are weak in midfield in my opinion but that is secondary to the positions above. .

To me the appointment of Commoli clearly points to the fact that NESV, and i am not criticising them for it, clearly operate very prudently and have no intention of spending big on fees or wages. To do this and make progress you have to have a good manager, or at least a manager that is used to operating on a budget, Martin o'neil did this well at Villa, Rafa did it well at Liverpool, he won a lot nore than o'neil and got lots of stick for the last 2 years of his reign. Anyway im just pointing out that we need change.

NESV need to decide on the philosophy, pick a manager and move forward.

People need to stop saying BRING BACK RAFA. Why on earth do you want rafa back? Yes he had a hard time with the owners but at the same time he was to blame along with the players for what was happening on the pitch last year. He brought in more average players than world class resluting in the club wasting alot of money. And his treatment of some of the players i.e Alonso, cisse is the main reason why they left. The team are crap at the moment but one thing we do not need is rafa back. We need a manager that will come in and get his head down and get rid of the dead weight in the team and bring in players that deserve to wear the shirt and move forward from there.

If this has already been said I apologise. Roy Hodgson has said that the negativity from the fans is not helping our form. To be honest, this is not even negative compared to his tactics and team selection. He is officially the worst manager we have ever had. When Thommo came in for a bit while Ged was badly he won 2 manager of the month awards. I could honestly do a better job than Roy at the minute, anyone could.

Now to the absolute shambles of a Sky commentary team. How can they stick up for him? Saying he inherited problems at Liverpool. To me the only 2 problems we had were the ownership and debt, they have now gone. We have some of the best players in the world, anyone could get this team of players into the top 4 easily.

Hodgson is so negative on and off the pitch. He is a rude and arrogant man, after Rijkaard was sacked at Gala he said "He must have been a great manager to be sacked from Galatasaray". When Torres was linked with moves away he has not said anything to rest us fans about his staying. If we stick with Roy for more of the season we will be a bottom table team at best.

I woke up this morning hoping, praying and wishing that Roy had been sacked. Has he? NO!

ROY OUT!

Give Roy a break - For months, people have been moaning on here that we should play 4-4-2 - We do, and he puts out a team which, even without any guidance, should have beaten and extremely poor Wolves team, and they get well beaten.

Is this the managers fault or the players?? Isn't it about time we starting looking further than the manager? For example:
Torres - sell him - one or two good games a season is simply not acceptable
Gerrard - One good game this year
Kuyt - 10 out of 10 for effort - effectiveness -?
Babel - great prospect? How many years can you be a great prospect?
Cole - overpaid one trick pony

The list could go on and on! !

He should be ashamed of himself, as should Hodgson for leaving him on the pitch and Gerrard for not kicking him up the backside.

We are not good enough to carry any players, especially a so called world class player.

Hi . my only request to all Liverpool fans is to stick together, nd get behind club. .we all know Roy is not good enough but we have to be patient nd wait for nsev s tolrence with Roy inability to handle Liverpool . replacement is needed nd I'm sure loads of work is going behind scenes nd I'm sure once suitable replacement is chosen Roy would be shown door. Regardless of results in next few matches Roy is bound to go nd I agree sooner the better but not without suitable replacement nd I would never want Liverpool to lose another match just to get Roy sacked as for me Liverpool comes first . .I take great pride in being Liverpool fan nd I'm sure there are millions like me all over universe. You will never walk alone . .hey I have also put 20 quid separate from my hard earned money to send Roy a bouquet once he is sacked . .

No movement no passing no width, i, m cheesed off with this that 4x Hodgson hasnt a clue remember our players had a considerable rest period over xmas.

Ive said for a long time Syrtel is our weakest link and its been shown game in every game.

We are 3points of relegation and a massive 10 or so points of 4th place ive got no faith, I don't even want to watch no more.

I'd really like to know who is advising NESV. I just hope its not someone with a pro British manager agenda. We have to hold tight for now but I fear they haven't a clue as to the gravity of our current situation. Its pathetic that they are taking an anti-democratic stance with callers to LFC.tv and comments on the website. What are they afraid of. .? They arent really doing themselves any favours. Right now it smacks of incompetence to me.

Come on NESV. show your f* *ing teeth.

Reading the majority of the posts on here, I am assuming the vast majority of 'posters' do not go regularly to matches (or in some cases, I doubt they watch football at all) but for those that do, we all need to be ashamed of ourselves for both the atmosphere at Anfield last night (which was the flatest I have witnessed in my 22 years) and the way certain players where singled out for some very unfair treatment and abuse from so called fans,

Lets get something straight - Konchesky is not a great player and will never set the world alight but we need to remember he is of the calibre we can attract at this moment in our history, so lets support the guy and, lets be completely honest, he played an great deal better than our so called 'star' player, Torres, who was a disgrace yet again last night.

I do not believe Hodgson is the man for the job, but he is still OUR manager, and whilst we are all entitled to our opinion, if you want to abuse your own manager / players, go support another team! Hodgsons comments about the crowds negativity effecting the players is spot on! So lets stop.

The club has given us all some amazing times and memories over the years, so lets support them ALL in this difficult time.

I do not believe any major signings will be made until Hodgson is replaced, and we will struggle to attract a new 'quality' manager mid season, so expect this the current form to continue until the end of the season. And, start supporting the team!

Woeful woeful woeful!

How do we manage to create one chance against the worst team in the league who made us look like the worst team (full marks to Wolves, who showed us how to fight for the cause! )

Let's face it Roy ain't gonna resign he will have to be sacked. . . . . . he says I have no magic wand well you can start by walking away! be a magician and disappear!

How does he take off Mereiles when he was the only one trying to link up the play ; Ngog was a least trying, was Torres? When I saw the team line up the whole midfield had no balance, no width , the defence was the usual shambles. . deja vu ?

Quite simply if Roy is not sacked I predict we will lose at least three more in Jan remember we have Utd, Everton and dare I say it Blackpool !

This is serious. . . . we need a manager/ coach who will give them a good old kick up the arse and dent some these primadonna's ego's and fight for the shirt! !

I look at the LFC situation now and I immediately compare it to Chelsea in Feb' 2009 when they sacked Scholari and brought in Hiddink , completely changing the direction of there campaign and returning confidence to the club .

LFC now need to make such a decision , to bring in a gaffer that can put some pride into the team and return a smile to the faces of the players .

Im from New Zealand and have supported Liverpool for 30 years. Roy clearly needs to go - no doubt about it - its even more clear that every Liverpool supporter on the planet feels the same way. Sometimes I wish i was living in Liverpool so I could exercise my right as a fan to do something about the mess LFC is in. Surely, if an entire stadium of fans didn't show up to a home game (or even half the stadium) I guarantee NESV would listen cause they'd be losing dollars. Is something of this nature possible?

Wats hodgson done, buy konchesky and poulson. The only money he should get in the window in a compansation package, sack him now NESV.

If Roy had any pride at all he would stop the lame excuses and same, same post match intervies and do the decent thing. He is simply not up[ to the job. You only haver to look at the bench during the game to see his and the faces of Sammy etc and they look bewildered and out of there depth - clueless!
We are a laughing stock at the moment and it's hard to get behind the team when they perform like this. I am a true Red but come on guys, is this the Reds you want to see?

How hard is it going to be for liverpool to get any top flight players in jan . who would want to be in a could be relagation battel and working with has been manager who hasnt got a clue weather to scratch his ass or pick his nose iv seen more go in sunday league team . liverpool have the belief of a confrence team in the fa cup they know its not gonna happen so really what is the point. the longer roy is in charge the harder it will be for the next manager to help the team grow. as for transfers i wouldn't give roy a penny as it will only go to waste on even more poor over priced players who will only add to an already bad squad. i say bring in a new manger now before he ruins next season before this one is over. this is worst time iv ever know at liverpool football club roy is at the start of another souness era and spoil not just a team but a club aswell you only have to sit in the kop on game day to hear how bad the fans think it is . so please roy do us a favour and up and leave. . . . . . . . . .

Some people on here are just plain stupid. . yeah lets cash in on torres and get rid of one of our two only world class players we have. When will people realize we are not the liverpool of even 5 years ago where world class players want to come, we stuffed up big time selling the likes of alonso and mascherano only to bring in aquilani and poulsen, if we sell torres his money would be spend on 2nd and 3rd class players like carlton cole and gervinho. They are not Liverpool worthy, and if this happens we will no doubt turn into a mid table team.
Keep torres, get back in champions league and attract real stars liverpool. YNWA

Mr Henry will hold crisis talks with Mr Hodgson today, and will sack him if LFC are unable to pick up maximum points from the next 2 games.

Why wait? If clubs below us get results we could be back in the bottom 3!

We are starting to show that who ever we play can beat us. Look at Blackpool and now Wolves, two teams that have not beaten LFC for years! This gives the smaller clubs high hopes even at Anfield.

I cannot understand Ed why we must wait for a CEO to be installed before RH can be sacked! When John and Tom are Owner( i know he's not sole owner) and Chairman. Tom is a LFC fan, he must be finding this as gut wrenching as the rest of us. I think we all now know Roy ain't going to step down and lose face, he will wait for them to sack him. As obviously in Roy's mind he's doing a superb job! I think nesv owe it to the fans to do the right thing and sack RH. We still have half a season to salvage some pride before the building process in the summer. So bring in a caretaker Manager be it KK or Evans etc and get back some stability in the team and then the results will come. This will not happen under Roy.

That says it all. . "if I was a supporter"! Well he b* * y well should be if he is our manager. Dreadful, quotes, dreadful tactics, lost players. . time to fall on sword or be pushed onto it! My 15 year old daughter can see why we are playing badly why can't he?

The news of new signings will be most welcome , however the greatest news of all would be the departure of Roy Hodgson .

Any new signings will stand a better chance of performing for a new manager or even a caretaker manager .

Now the LFC manager is only responsible for taking care of first team training and matches , just about anyone could do a better job than Roy Hodgson .

In the real world, outside Football, if you aren't doing your job or for whatever reason you aren't capable of doing your job you run the risk of getting sacked (I won't even go the redundancy route), and after last nights utterly depressing and uninspired performance from both the players, and yourself, I would be seriously worried about my position.

The players were atrocious no denying that, and no one can totally blame you for their seemingly abject lack of desire, (hopefully behind closed doors Roy tore shreads of the players), however, when you start suggesting that the fans are somewhat to blame, then it reeks of someone clutching at straws and in dire need of an excuse to mask his own inadequacies, NESV take note.

In my opinion Roy has become "conditioned" to mediocrity, at Fulham it was considered a great achievement to finish mid-table, win or draw a large proportion of your home games and rejoice in ectasy if you won the odd away game, but we are not Fulham! we are Liverpool! and whilst we are not the Liverpool of old, as fans we still aspire to compete at the highest level, unfortunately Roy Hodgson has brought his "conditioned" medioce ideals to our club.

His actions on the sideline, through team and formation selection, poor match assessment (ongoing), strange substitutions, and a look of complete frustration and cluelessness, coupled with his "strange" pre and post match press comments, which almost seem geared to alienate the fans, only add fuel to the mediocrisy arguement . .especially when he admits that he is "working as hard as he can".

Roy, at Liverpool okay is simply NOT okay! from the days of Shankly up to the present, it NEVER has, and on a personal not NEVER will be, and from the noises NESV have made to date nor is it acceptable to them either . .perhaps they should issue you with a similar ultimatum that West Ham's owners issued a comparatively inept Avram Grant, or Fulham issued a severely under performing Mark Hughes - win or else (although I wouldn't be so lenient as to giving him the one in three option).

Last night's game also highlighted (what has been apparent for two or three years) that we are in dire need of additional quality in a number of positions - I doubt NESV have enough money, or even if they have, would be willing to invest it

1. Centre back - we need a commanding and vocal presence (although Jamie is on his last legs he is still far and away our best defender - Agger could be if he was ever fit).

2. Left back - Aurelio has quality, but when push comes to shove we still need a hard core out and out defender.

3. Defensive Midfield - a term/ position that has become common place over the past 10 years, what ever happened to Midfielders who simply worked in tandom with their partners and went forward or stayed put where applicable? If we do have to have a "defensive Midfielder" then please lets get someone who can put their foot in and add some steel - Lucas is not that player (yes I no that really isn't his actual position, etc, etc) pure and simple!

4. Midfield - wide players with pace, left or right sided, preferably both.

5. A Striker - to add support to, and put pressure on Fernando Torres (assuming he will still be a Liverpool player in the near future). Ryan Babel is certainly not everybodies "cup of tea", in the majority I would say he is despised, but last night I thought he showed more spirit and fight then most on the pitch, (perhaps that may have said less about him and more about the others), and actually looked as if he cared about the club and wearing the shirt.

Roll on January, surely 2011 has to be better (fingers crossed).

I'm not a fan of Rafa but he is 10 times the manager roy is. NESV get him out and give the reigns to Kenny Dalglish until the end of the season.

I was in the Kemlyn last night and it was awful. We were too narrow. Raul should have been in middle with Maxi playing. The full backs couldn't bomb on with the formation we played. It made it so easy for Wolves to press us. Pass and move Shankly instilled in us. That didn't happen last night. Now, I know Hodgson is an issue, but the players have to stand up, as well! Aurelio and Maxi will start against Bolton, and I'll tell you now, if we play like we did last night, Bolton will win! I'm afraid Stevie coming back into the side effected the balance of the team with 4 players having to swap places. Joe Cole, comes on in the centre of midfield. How can he harm teams there? Sorry Roy, something has got to change.YNWA. Steve1961.

We will not beat Bolton at wknd guaranteed, bolton will come at us Roy will s* t himself and get everyone to defend. We can't blame nesv for anything but if they keep choosing not to act over Roy then we must start to wonder what there playing at. Maybe commolli was there to report to nesv about Roy whether it will benefit us to get rid know, and on that performance its a yes. Everything about the team is getting worse every game Roy stays in charge the Passion the drive. Soon they probably won't even come out of the tunnel. Roy needs to go today.

We need: Hulk, Honda, G. Cahill

Also, pepe is a great keeps, leader and all around guy. BUT, we should sell him, and play jones. Reina has given up 3 howlers this year, and isn't getting any younger or more valueable. (granted, he's prob half the reason el nino stays) but in theory it works. He could be the first 70k keeper. How many shots on frame does our dodgy defense give up anyway? 3 or so? our spiderman isn't going to change the result on his own.

Of course they are, but you have diverted away from the point I was making regarding the sub-standard players.

I am sorry to intervene but I do not believe that the players we have are sub standard. . . . .

We have good and very good players but Roy Hodgson doesn't use tactics to suit his players. . .

Our players have been playing 4-5-1 or 4-2-3-1 for the best part of last 6 years. . . . .

We are short of strikers. . . .


STILL our MANAGER decides to go for 4-4-2 just because it sounds attacking. . . . .
But the omplemntation of 4-4-2 was not all ATTACKING. . .

I didn't see football yesterday, I saw "HOOF"BALL. . . . .

Throw him out. . . He has one agenda at the moment. . . Destroy the legacy of Benitez, not to build his own legacy. . .


We have so many midfielders, so why play 4-4-2. . . . .
At least Rafa had the balls to play Gerrard on the RIGHT WING, but what does Roy Hodgson do. . . .He dodges the question by playing

Meirelles on the right
Kuyt on the left

and we get attacked through the wings. . . . .God knows how he lasted so many years in the continent with so poor tactical acumen. . . .


Again Throw Him Out. . . .

Sadly, it looks like Manure will take the title this year without breaking stride and LFC will be known more for its historical records than present glory.
We have a team who's best players are fading (Gerrard and Carra with age, Fernando with care factor) and a manager who is third-rate. Aside from aforementioned plus Pepe and Raul, the players lack any sort of class and quality.
NOW is the time for wholesale changes in preparation for next season's campaign.
Get in a new manager of proven quality (Deschamps, Low, Boas). Get in at least 3 quality proven players to bolster. Clear out the deadwood and pick up a few promising youngsters to add to Kelly, Shelvey, Pacheco, et al. But please John Henry, let's do it NOW.

Out:

Babel 6m
Konk 2m
Poulsen Free (or I'll pay)
Kuyt 4m
Ngog 4m
Jova 4m
Cole 3m (or my shout)
Soto 1m
Spearing 2m
El Zhar 1m
Degen Free (and I'll drive him wherever)

That's nearly 30m. If JH throws in another 20m, we could start to set things up for a league assault next year.

I didn't mean in this window or potentially even this summer. All I mean is that since he is versatile if at some point a very good leftwinger becomes availible for a good price and Liverpool were to sign him that Marveaux can do a number of different things.

As for this window, Id love to see Gervinho come in. Play a 4-3-3/ 4-5-1 with Torres at central striker, Marveaux at left forward and Gervinho at right forward.

We are not turning on them Ed we are crying out for them. I've never seen a worse LFC side or manager ever and NESV are the only ones who can do anything about it.

How long do we let things run their course? Remember Januaury is just around the corner and we've probably some funds available. And Hodgson should not be allowed to spend a penny.

Of course they are, but you have diverted away from the point I was making regarding the sub-standard players.

NESV don't want Hodgson as Liverpool manager, it is well known that this is the case. So that indicates that they, like us, don't believe he is the man for the job nor is he up to the job. However, like I said before if you read, and as has been said umpteen times here, NESV want the right man for the job and won't just appoint the first name that pops up, because if that person turns out to be the wrong man then we'll be back on the same boat. But lets not treat NESV like idiots, if results like tonights one continue and put us in a more embarassing and worse position than we are in, then they'll take action - don't forget that Henry did say some of our results have been unacceptable. And I won't have any ill feeling towards NESV for it. The sub-standard players we possess aren't ones they sanctioned, the sub-standard management wasn't brought to the club by then, and things were looking pretty awful for us on the field before they came in. NESV can't be judged only a number of months into their tenure. I would have ill feeling towards a manager who is incapable of doing a job both as a manager and speaking to the media, and I would also have ill feeling towards millionaire players who earn tens of thousands a week and do absolutly nothing to deserve it on the field, who don't show any passion for our shirt, and who I spend thousands of pounds per year to go and watch. I think Henry has acknowledged that players are earning wages they don't merit.

And if C.Cole signs for Liverpool, then responsibility will be shared by our transfer committee who decide on transfers (obviously includes Hodgson). But there is little to no indication that we are in for C.Cole apart from hearsay, and I personally doubt it will happen as it represents no value for money.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Great post mate but my point is that NESV have not got time to hang about which they seem to be doing for whatever reason.

We cannot let this man spend our money in January and buy the likes of C.Cole (which i think will happen if he stays). I'm not blaming NESV but i am angry at them for continuing with Hodgson over the past 2 months.

You like me sound frustrated but you unlike me think that NESV cannot solve the problem asap. When they are the only ones who can rectify the problem asap.

People are questioning wether sacking Roy Hodgson would solve all of our problems , the concern now is that Roy Hodgson is creating problems and removing him will stop him creating more , allowing someone to step in and give the job the credit it deserves .

Roy Hodgson was never a long term solution and has now proved himself to be no short term answer aswell .

He has to be replaced out of respect to LFC .

No Major sports club in the world would be prepared to put up with such a pathetic product as Roy Hodgson is offering .

So sack Roy, bring back Benitez, i'm sick of watching us get beat by poor teams like Wolves! John Henry isn't a stupid man so expect Roy to be gone very soon.

There aren't any excuses anymore , I should know I tried to defend Roy Hodgson with considerable effort , but now it is all to clear he has done LFC no favours whatsoever (Raul Meireles will be a better player under a new manager) .

Roy Hodgson has to leave whilst there is still the chance to win the FA Cup and the Europa League this season .

A new manager could have some fun with the internationals in the squad and the cup competitions that are still available from what is left of our season .

I think even signings like Sylvain Marveaux are a good idea .

Atleast balance and impetus can be put back into the playing staff through such acquisitions , wether such players will hold the first team position for the rest of their career - who knows?

But , it will allow the tried and tested failures to move on and give a new manager some talent to work with until any marquee signings are made .

As much as I only wanted the team to improved with first choice starters - relegating some of our present personnel to squad status or ex players , I think the team can now only benefit from some new talent .

It would appear the Carlton Cole rumours have raised their ugly head again (never went away if truth be known), surely the advisors to NESV can't be that misguided? I would hope to think Comoli isn't that poor a judge (God help us if he is), unfortunately Roy it would appear is!

Tonight's team selection (formation), and in turn Roy's inability to see or unwillingness to admit it wasn't working (obvious 10 minutes after kickoff), was reminiscent of the bad Rafa days. Is there a rule about making substitutes before or at half-time that i'm unaware of? why Roy? oh why do you wait until the 65th or 70th minute to make a substitution(s)? are you paying some sort of warped homage to Rafa, and like Rafa in the past, it is invariably after we have gone a goal down.

Yeah Carlton Cole will really change the team around, that "missing link" we crave . . Roy, I hope you have four or five "missing links" up your sleeve for January because that's the minimum we require

What's that I hear you say . ."you don't"

No, NESV can't take any of the responsibility for Roy being here or the bad team we have. None at all. And it has been said before that they want the right man to be in charge, they don't just want to appoint someone who turns out to be the wrong man for the job and end up on the same boat.

And one simple phone call won't sort out the mess we are in. Don't be so narrow minded. As well as getting a new manager (who will need time to implement his own ideas and style and analyse the players in the squad) on top of getting new coaching staff and of course new players. One phone call will only go so far to sorting out the mess we are in, it certainly won't solve the problem.

They are the only one's with the responsibilty now. They may not have hired him but they are the only one's who can sack him. No one gives a f* * who hired Roy but they are responsible to us if things get worse and they sat back and let it happen.

I had the misfortune of having witnesssed the Newcastle game live suggested that it coluld not get worse but shock horror not only that it got a lot worse! I am fcking seething as the LFC players are giving only the max effort for the cause and should be ashamed of themselves. . John Henry with all due respect do the club and us all a favour and say enough is enough and put Kenny in charge for now until a replacement that will take the club forward long term is available. . .

Liverpool to conclude deal for Charles N'Zogbia the french interational, £12.8M. Also Milan Jovanovic was not present on the bench or line up as he is finalising a move back to Standard Leige.

Liverpool are also in talks with Wolfsburg, which could see Daniel Agger and Ryan Babel being involved in a p/ x, which would see Edin Dzeko brought to Anfield. This all depends on whether a deal is not already finalised by Manchester City, as Emanual Adeybayor has publically stated he doesn't wish to join the Bundesliga side.

Reina
Johnson- Skrtel- Wilson- Aurelio
Maxi/ Cole- Gerrard- Meireles- N'zogbia/ Kuyt
Torres- Dzeko

Hi all i am an avid liverpool fan like the rest of u, and feel as others it is time for roy hodgeson to quit or be sacked!
Im all for sticking with the manager and backing them, to the hilt.
But when u can plainly see that the players carnt consistently give commited performances then u know there is a serious problem.
I believe it is time to bring back a certain mr r benitez as he knows this squad better than others and im sure he would get more out of the players than what roy has done.
But on the other hand we have at least found out who has the fight and who hasnt when the going gets tough not many.
All these issues have come about from bads buys and broken promises from the previous owners.
I do not blame roy or rafa for the players we have got other than half a dozen, as i have said before if only the last regime had put up the money they promised to rafa for david villa and david silva bck in the summer of 2008 we might be talking of winning the league back in may 2009 instead of finishing 2nd to the wanks i mean mancs.
And it may be all diffrent other than needing new owners for the old ones who couldnt stop breaking
promises!
All i ask is that if not rafa, which i would prefer! then a pedigree name who will most certainly gainmore respect off the players other than someone who has managed molde blackburn fulham and other poor standard teams come to think of it how the hell did we consider roy in the forst place! !
This is why i would want rafa back hes free, to sign a contract with out a fee to be paid to a club, which must be appealing to the owners as it would cost a few million to get someone else in and nesv might think down these lines again as if we are honest he isn't a bad manager is he, and i bet raring to go again at us and with the right backing from the new owners, we might just start winning and believing again.
Dont get me wrong i like roy as a person but as an lfc manager as tonight as shown not as a manager time to go.

Ed what do u think to what ive said and who would u have would u have rafa back if not for tha logic behind what ive said?

Ed im also led to believe that as a great gesture rafa when sacked by us gave a substantial amount of his severence pay to a liverpool fan group?? ?
Not such a knob of a guy as some thought when he was there??

Ed it is more vital now that we buy big now and in the summer we need not to rush i agree but show some real Intent when buying what do you think ed do u agree please answer all if can be bothered would be appreciated.

Liverpool 4eva kirkers in bury

{Editor's NOte: I agree that it is time for the manager to go - but I really do not see Rafa Benitez as the way forward. He is part of the history of the club and not the future. How many of the squad would want out if he came back. I was expecting Hodgson to stay until the summer and then a new manager to be put in place, but given the results and, in my view, his words about Joe Cole last week, he will be in a tough position. NESV are never going to "buy big" in terms of just throwing large amounts of money at the side. Buying needs to be planned and be sensible and, key, no more waste.

If i remember correctly in one of Martin Broughton interviwes he said kenny wanted to be the manager but said he is not a candidate. .

When pickin Roy as our next manager diddn't Kenny oversea the interviews and infact in one of Martin Broughton's interviews he said that kenny recomended roy. .
Was Kenny Dalglish part of the decision?
He wasn't part of the decision, he was part of the recommendation team and he recommended Roy.
(taken from the LFC website)


conspiracy theory -
Maybe Kenny picked such a SH*T manager so that the fans would turn against woy and kenny would get the job that he wanted?

Roy does need to go, i think we all agree on that. But bringing Rafa back will do the club more harm than people could imagine. In the last 6 months of his reign his relationship with Mascherano, Torres and Gerrard and probably most of the rest of the squad had broken down. There was too much unrest in the dressing room and it looks like with Roy that it is happening again. Sammy Lee also needs to go and we need to bring in a world class manager and bring King Kenny in as the assisstant manager to bring back to passion and pride in wearing the liverpool shirt and the crest upon their chests. We also need at least 6 players to begin the improvements: 1 Right Back; 1 Left Back; 1 Centre Back; 1 Right Winger; 1 Left Winger & 1 Striker. These are the areas we have lacked on in recent years even under Houllier and especially under Rafa. These changes need to being on 1/ 1/ 11 and NESV have to act fast and be rid of Hodgson and Lee.

Another fantastic performance from the most boring team in the EPl, such an awful team to watch. Gerrard is clearly not fit and as for torres he's quite simply not interested and looks like hes already thinking of being back in Spain. Shocking defence, no midfield, cole is a wate of space, no inventivness, no ideas, an absolute shambles, keep up the good work agent hodgson

No, NESV can't take any of the responsibility for Roy being here or the bad team we have. None at all. And it has been said before that they want the right man to be in charge, they don't just want to appoint someone who turns out to be the wrong man for the job and end up on the same boat.

And one simple phone call won't sort out the mess we are in. Don't be so narrow minded. As well as getting a new manager (who will need time to implement his own ideas and style and analyse the players in the squad) on top of getting new coaching staff and of course new players. One phone call will only go so far to sorting out the mess we are in, it certainly won't solve the problem.

They are the only one's with the responsibilty now. They may not have hired him but they are the only one's who can sack him. No one gives a f*** who hired Roy but they are responsible to us if things get worse and they sat back and let it happen.

The reality is we want him out now. You keep saying that won't solve the problem when it's Roy Hodgson that is the problem.

Muppet Newsflash. . .

Our Roving reporter Kermit the Frog live from Anfield.

"So Roy how do you explain losing to the team at the bottom of the "best league" in the world ?

Roy- I think you will see Kermit The difference tonight was Moussa Dembele .

Was he playing Roy i don't think i noticed ?

Roy- Exactly Kermit when Moussa was on my team last year we won our first game

But your manager of Liverpool now Roy not a mediocre mid team club

Roy- Well i would beg to differ Kermit as i said i beat Wolves last year with Moussa

And tonight you had Gerrard, Torres, Reina etc are you saying Fulham are a better team. Or maybe your a crap manager Roy, the kids on Sesame Street would like to know.

Roy- I'm not doing anything different from last year Kermit, my good friend Alex rang me before kick off and said "keep up the good work" what more can i do

You could pretend you have a pair of balls and resign, the kids on Sesame see muppets everyday they know one when they see one now F* * * * * * k off. This is your roving reporter Kermit the Frog telling all the boys and girls Roy is the new H & G get him out.

I think the time has come for Nesv to act and get rid of Roy. That has to have been one of the worst performances I have seen from a Liverpool side at Anfield. Surely we can't trust Roy with cash to spend in the transfer window. Maybe appoint Kenny until the end of the season while we decide who the right man is to take this club back to where it rightfully should be. What are your views on what action the club should take NOW re the managers position ed? {ed's note - best to get rid of Roy now, in my opinion, waiting is not helping anybody.}

Ed did you think that i did that Maxi was unfortunate not to be playing tonight? I think he was dropped just to accommodate the returning Gerrard. When surely Lucas should've been dropped and Gerrard should've have been in the centre alongside Raul. Which could have meant that Maxi would've have been on the left were he's been pretty good for us so far this season.

For me personally NESV have to share some of the responsibilty as they should have sacked Hodgson weeks ago. Their "still learning" statement has run it's course they have surely learned that Roy has to go. NESV own the club so they are the one's who have to act and soon.

People saying they will never watch another game, not wearing another shirt and starting a new club are like i was earlier not thinking straight out of anger. We all know that this dire mess we are in can be sorted by one quick phone call.

"Hello Roy this is John i'm sorry to tell you this mate but you're a f* *ing sh*t manager"

@ david who has supposedly sent an email to NESV:

So your trying to make all L'ppol suporters look like knobs? If that's who you believe will do a better job then you don't know fcuk all about football.

It's the 11 lazy bunch of overpaid 'tords I pay £120 each home game to travel a 290mile round trip to watch them play worse than I did at primary school which accounted for that performance.

That result is 90% down to the 13 who graced the field (Babel was my best player, unbelievably!). I though the Newcastle performance was the worst I've seen all season. Ive just been proved wrong.

How on earth will we attract first class talent after that!? Unreal.

It isn't NESV's fault that the previous owners left us with a poor team and that the previous board hired a manager who isn't up to the job.

It has been said time and time again that they want to find their bearings (ie: new board etc.) before making any big decisions. Obviously with the fans' growing discontentment and some poor results the manager may be changed.

But I don't see how the mess we're in can possibly be NESV's fault. Anyone who suggests that is actually quite silly in my opinion.

But hey, if people think that creating a club because we don't like the current club's manager is the way to go, then so be it.

Another thing that gets on my nerves is how easy a time Roy Hodgson seems to be getting it in the media. Most of all Sky Sports, but in newspapers and the like also.

Sky Sports pundits refuse to blame him for anything, and point the finger at Benitez mainly for the club's problems. I don't think I've heard one pundit on Gillette Soccer Saturday or anything mention the word "Hodgson" and "sack" in the same sentence. Rafa Benitez got absolutly slaughtered for results that weren't as bad as this - like a draw at home against a lower team and he was absolutly murdered in the media for it especially Sky Sports. Tonight we were beat by the worst team in the league with the worst away record, we had 4 shots on target at home, and Hodgson appears to get off lightly. Redknapp and Barnes refused to point the finger at him before the game and Spurs Sports haven't said a negative thing about him.

We are 3 points above the relegation zone for goodness sake and na, Roy isn't to blame for this! Absolutly rediculous. I don't hear the likes of Ronnie Whelan calling for his head, Ronnie never shut his big fat mouth about Rafa for two years. And all of the columnists are giving Liverpool fans stick for wanting him out of the club and saying he needs time and money!

After another dismall performance by a team that had to accomadate Gerrard back into the team.
Hodgson then decides that Meirless had to play on the right and Kuyt on the left, leave Joe cole on the bench and then brings on Babel before him who has never had a good game for us.
Many people are banding names as a replacement for Hodgson but i have not yet seen one mention Martin O`neill, he has to be our No1 target.
There were rumours he was the target before Hodgson got the job,

Konchesky shouldn't have started and Gerrard should have played behind Torres and Ngog. Right now I know its the manager because if Bennitez had Meireles and J.Cole it would have been. A wrap.

MANAGER:

We need a manager with experience who have managed BIG TEAMS SUCCESSFULLY like Guus Hiddink or Frank Rijkaard.
I know Guus Hiddink is unlike to come as he is the cuurent manager of Turkey but we need someone positive, if Harry Redknapp was available I would like him but there is just no chance of getting him now.

PLAYERS:

We need a new centre back (maybe 2), I don't think Skrtel is good enough at all, Kyrgiakos has done ok (he lacks pace though).

We need a winger (preferably left)

We need a good forward, I am not sure what type of forward, maybe a big strong striker like Carroll or Llorente or a creative and fast forward like Aguero (I am not saying these players but to give an idea)


WE JUST NEED PLAYERS WITH ENERGY AND CREATIVITY AND PACE! !

Hi guys, I'm a teen who has supported the reds my entire life, i even cried when i was taken to everton but i simply cannot support Liverpool while Roy Hodgson is manager, he plays counter-attacking football with a team not built for that style of play, something needs to change at Liverpool, NESV need to make there first priority a new manager, a manager fit to manage one of the games greats.

A concerned fan

Also that sh*te poulson needs to go

Anyone else getting a little worried that NESV might have underestimated the task at hand. I know they are not from a footballing background but their inability to appoint a CEO in good time is a little troubling. I know they favour a policy of getting the right candidate and studying all the options (hence why Hodgson hasn't gone yet) but inaction in football can cause irrepariable damage. A decline in baseball, what with the draft and lack of relegation, is immeasureably easier to fix than in football where the loss of European cup action and entry into a lower division can have effects for a generation.

I really want to give them the benefit of the doubt, but if we're judging them on their actions rather than their words as they asked then so far inaction seems to be the order of the day. How can a club be run at such a crucial time without a CEO?

I know there are mixed opinions on whether Kenny should be given the manager's job back or not, but who would not prefer Dalglish back in the job until the end of the season to continuing on with Roy? This is becoming ridiculous. Now we cannot even win against poor opposition at Anfield. Also people keep saying things like we are six points off where we were past year. Are we forgetting that last year was the worst we had been under Rafa and it got him sacked. Hardly a standard we should hold our performances up to.
I did not expect to win the league this year but our performances had been absolutely pitiful for most of these past few months and with the talent in our side we should at least be beating these weaker sides and be higher than 12. For me there is only one way forward from here: sack Roy, install Kenny as interim, and at the end of the year reevaluate and maybe appoint someone like Boas, Coyle, or Laudrup. Tell me what you all think? Ed am I overeacting?
Anfield Rapstar {ed's note - I agree completely, keeping hold of Roy is the worst option of all the available ones that I can see.}

Ed i've never felt so pissed off after a defeat as i did tonight, im that desperate for woy to get the sack that i've just prayed for it to be tomorrow mornings headlines lol. {ed's note - I am trying to cheer meself up with a bit of Inbetweeners, but it is not working.}

Earlier some1 commented saying that the lfc phone in was vetted so people couldnt go on and rant about the manager or game. . and now the lfc site won't let us comment on the game post or roys verdict to the game either. . now that really shows of listening to the fans when we cannot have an opinion. .

liverpool at the minute is putting me off football totally. a sport i have loved and played for 33 years. .

Oh and honda is not a striker. He played behind the striker. {ed's note - he did play for Japan as a target man, he can virtually play anywhere, he was a very good attacking left back while at VVV at times.}

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Yeah but I think we need someone better then him. Sure he's good but he's unproven in a big league. Did good in the wc but apart from that hasn't done brilliantly. Would love a striker of Llorente quality. I'd be happy with Honda tho when we're getting linked with Cole

I went to my first match back in 1980. Tonite was heartbreaking. The booing was simple - we needed goals and needed to reshape the side but Hodgson could not see it.

The Liverpool board quite clearly are spineless & clueless for not acting. Hodgson has to go. This once great club is slowly being dissolved by people who do not understand this club.

Bring back Kenny for the start of 2011. The crowd would be lifted, the players would be inspired.

Please Roy just go

Hodgson Out said

It amuses me that people are putting so much on Torres. I feel he is one of the fewpeople who want the club to recover. I saw a couple of flashes of brilliance, he created the best chance of the game for merieles. I am glad he is dragging his heels right now, I would be.

I can think of about 120 000 reasons why he shouldnt dragging his heels each week - every one of them a pound note taken out of a fans pocket!

Went to game and what a laughing stock we were made to look. No passion throughout the team, no desire, and no clue. Being said the players are to blame too, but enough is enough, Hodgson needs to defo go, hes out hid depth! I'd welcome Marveaux, looks a proper LW which we NEED! We obv need a CF, LB, and CB. Skrtel and Soto aren't Good enough for LFCs and NESVs future, Agger is but plays to few games. SELL Kuyt, Jova, Poulson, Babel, Konk, Johnson, Skrtel and anyone else who doesn't suit the future, AND BUY Honda, Hazard, Benega, and a GOOD CF (like a Dzeko!) and promote Kelly to RB.

Team to be?
Reina
Kelly newCB Agger Aurelio
Hazard benega mereiles marveaux
Gerrard torres

Subs j Cole Honda agog etc
