I don't think it will happen either. But never say never. Guardiola is a professed fan of English football and is fascinated by the English culture (although I can't see what he could possibly be fascinated by).

Word is that he would love to manage in England some day and if he does decide to leave Barcelona at the end of the season then we could atleast move for him.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

What has Guardiola actually done when you look at it? He just inherited the worlds best team! The only additions he made were Ibrahimovic (swapped for E'too and 20m!), and 29 year old David Villa for 35m. It was Rijkaard that brought Messi and the rest through, not that Id have him either mind.

Id have Owen Coyle tho!

There have been constant rumours about us signing Amauri and Ronaldhino in January. I doubted those rumours but as they have been voted the 2nd and 3rd WORST players in Liga A I am sure that they are good enough to play for our lot. Incidentally Adriano was voted the WORST player for the third time so perhaps we could swap him for Pacheco, Stirling and Suso!

Do Not expect any 'marquee' signings in Janurary. Simply isn't going to happen.

Do Not expect to see Bojan signed for £16m. Simply isn't going to happen, especially with Woy in charge.kk

Liverpool will go all out and make 2 marquee signings in January - the new owners will want to show all fans their intentions for the future and I'm sure January can't come quick enough for them and us. Expect a new striker, 2 speedy wide men and a new centre back - Let's try and stay positive (I know it's difficult, 1 step forward then 1 back) Managers job on the line if we do not pick up 12 points fom the next 5 games.

Pep guiradola is currently on a rolling contract, but i believe this season will be his last at Barcelona and he will be joining Liverpool in the summer.

1- He has won everything with Barcelona already(La liga and Champions league)
2- He fits in perfectly with NESV's philosophy (Young, talented and confident)
3- He be attracted by the transfer budget that the new owners will be offering.
4- He is not afraid to play attacking football and use the kids.
5-Finally, he would relish the chance to work with Fernando Torres, Pepe Reina and the new up-and coming talents Pacheco, Ayala and Suso.

Personally I think that if the he does become manager then he will bring in Juan Mata, Eden Hazard and possibly try for Bojan.

What do you think Ed?

Hey guys, how about marko arnautovic

Mentioned him earlier, has been watched. Think he only recently joined Werder Bremen, maybe at the start of the season. Could be a possibility for the summer, but would command quite a large transfer fee. kk

@13 Dec 2010 18:56:30 ""Here's a rumour a heard a few weeks ago. Benitez is being lined up to be next England coach. Now I thought this rumour was daft but now it's come to light that Coppello may be the next Inter boss.""

Half right. Capello will move to Inter sometime in the next 6- 12 months. Benitez however will be going to Real Madrid not England. Which leaves the question as to the destination of Mourinho in this little merry-go-round. My money is on United - or possibky us, but I reckon more likely United. Did you know for instance that Mourinho already owns a house near Alderley Edge and has done for a couple of years now? He also pays a retainer fee to local private schools for his son and daughter - now that's what you call forward planning.

On skysports.com it says roy hodgson plans on signing up to 4 players in january , a new rb , cb , winger and striker apperently , personally i wanted two wingers , striker and prob a left back cause konchesky is shocking. if we are looking for a new rb ed do you think the rumours about glen johnson are true? that he is unhappy and is going to leave in jan? also what did you make of the interview with the owners of lfc now?

DLG {ed's note - I think it is more about his poor attitude and him not being liked by most of his team mates. I haven't seen it yet, I am plussing it to watch in a bit, will watch it as soon as I feel a bit less rough.}

Ed i want u to answer two questions
1. Why they did not change roy when results are going worser and worser in away games. we can't dream of top 4 finish unless we start to win like home games. if they appoint new manager for next three games and one europa game he might understand the need of the club at present so that he can shape the team from upcoming transfers. if roy buys someone and he can't able to use him wisely like how he use torres the new boy maybe a failiure one. wat do u think about it
2. while LFC vs newcastle match going on i see some 3-4 min of werder vs dorthmund game . eventhough werder lost marin made some good moves his passes and running through defenders good. why don't we consider him if hazard bid his failed {ed's note - the only reason Roy is still there is because the right man was not available to replace him. As for Marin, scouts are out around the world, I think we just have to have faith they will pick the right men.}

Wfh! i keep hearing woy's allowing Glen to leave. . in future don't slag off key players in are squad and expect them to say, i think its gna get worse b4 it gets any better with sum of these garbage players woy is planning on signing
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Then it is a good thing that transfers aren't decided by Roy Hodgson alone isn't it?

As for Glen, well he can leave if you ask me. He's a right-back who is distinctly average at defending and this has cost us this season, and it cost us at times last season.

I took a bit of my time out to go through the players we have been linked with recently & managed to find 28 players! I will list them in the order that I think we have a chance of getting them & also maybe why not.
Young 15m - can play on either wing, gets lots of assist & chip in with a few goals. Plus he is English
Suarez 15m - lively player who can run at defenders. Scores all kinds of goals & again gets plenty of assists.
Lescott 9m - (dont bite my head off) English, & while I hate to say it, he was very good while playing at left back all of the time at Everton. Also he can play in the centre & is a danger at set pieces. There are not many decent left backs around.
Piennar 5m - Self confessed Liverpool fan. On the cheap, decent left winger at that price.
Honda 12m - I think the price is high considering Benitez was watching him while still in holland & I also think that in Suso, we have a player of better ability.
Arda Turan 16m - Great attacker/ winger who has confirmed more than once that he would love to play for us. If we go for him I think he would push for a move.
N'Zogbia 8m - Not the best in the world, but whenever I watch him (especially against us) he runs teams round the bend. He has only ever played with average teams & could be even better with better players.
Lopez 14m - Fast, instinctive striker, who has had some problems at Lyon since moving. Liverpool linked to him a few months ago for a reduced fee.
Mata 18m - Great attacking player with loads of skill. Would love us to get him but I think he'll stay in Spain.
Not much of a chance:
Elia 12m - Playing well for Hamburg
Wickham 10m - A lot of money for a young lad who is injured.
Toivonen 11m - Could do well, but just don't see him as the answer
Cissokho 16m - Possibly the best left back around. Flies up & down the wing for Lyon, but don't think we could pay this for a left back.
Elmander 5m - Playing well at the moment & will be cheap, but again just don't see him as the answer. Possibly a squad signing.
Llorente 26m - Very good striker, but possibly out of our budget at the moment.
Hazzard 26m - Again very good young player, but out of our budget.

So for me if we get 3 out of that top list I will be happy. If I had my choice, it would be Suarez, Young, Turan, Lescott & Lopez. This would come to about 70m, which I know is near impossible, but I think these players would give Liverpool some great attacking & constructive options.

Willo

The post saying about Henry wanting to sell the club for a profit surely the club is still only worth around 300million regardless of having no debt. Maybe when we have won the league again he will beable to get more.

That guy Christian Eriksen scored for Ajax again at the weekend. I've watched him twice, and I've been impressed with him. He looks a real talent and I really hope we make a move for him.

At the moment, he's only 18 so if he signed in January and stayed at the club until he was 21 he would count as home-grown.

Wonder how much he would cost?
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
he would need to have joined before his 18th birthday to do his 3 years to qualify for homegrown status at 21. Still looks a top prospect and hope we are considering the lad

Then in the summer NESV are going to re assess the whole structure of LFC with everything being looked at including the management and they will target either Andre Villas Boas, Pep Guardiola (unlikely), Nigel Clough, Pako Ayesteran or Quique Flores.

see Dani Pacheco. awesome player but not given a chance by Woy "i prefer older crap players" Hodgson.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Eriksen is an attacking midfielder though, whereas Pacheco is a striker (obviously). I rate Pacheco and I want to see him given a chance, but our future doesn't revolve around one player. We need to look to other young talents also so that along with Pacheco, we can have a team of quality.

Suarez to join. He will cost 14million, but that fee could rise to 18million depending on his performances in a red shirt.
Ashley Young will also sign. He will cost around 16million.
Honda to also sign also, he will cost 14million.

I think that these are all good targets but I would swap Young for Mata of Valencia he will be cheaper and in my eyes a better player.

Yes i am serious about Jo. The lad came to England with huge potential from CSKA. The scouts have seen something in him. I should have however said he is not 1st choice by any means, but he would be alot better back up to Torres than N'Gog. I say we wait and see what happens, because he is on the radar. kk

{ed's note - is he a winger (stocker) then? When I have seen him he was playing central and was distinctly average, probably explains why if he is a winger!}

hi ed,

you can believe me, normally he plays as a winger. I'm Swiss and I have seen him playing a lot - his preferred position is on the left wing.
But there is the possibilty, you have seen him playing central offensive behind frei, when streller was a couple of weeks out.

This is the starting eleven of FC Basel.
Costanzo
Inkoom, Abraham, Ferati, Safari
Shaqiri, Cabral, Yapi, Stocker
Frei, Streller

like I said before, he has a good season in Switzerland, some good games in the Champions League and he perhaps has the talent for better clubs.

anyway, I don't see (or want him) him at LFC. seems not to be good enough for me. Same feeling I had about Degen, when he joined us.

Regards
Kenobi {ed's note - thank you for that, it is difficult to judge a player on just a couple of appearances anyway, but knowing he was out of position makes it even more difficult. But I have to say he never showed the technique or touch of a top class player, I don't see him as good enough either.}


i watch basel basically every game they play and no one in that team is good enough to play in england, the only one with potential is shaqiri, scott chipperfield (34 year old australian) is easily their best player so i would suggest not to even bother with anyone from basel

Also expect cheeky bids for rival team players, mainly spurs and city to mark a signal ofintent from NESV. Expect a bid for Modric, as Comolli really loves him, and bids for Jo, Kompany and possibly Silva. Jo and Silva will be more likely.kk

All of you who think Roy will be sacked are mad! He will stay until the summer 100% because that's when nesv no1 target pep guardiola becomes available from the mighty Barcelona so expect Roy here until the summer and then early summer expect pep guardiola to be bought in! He will attempt to bring young striker bojan with him and expect a few signings from la liga to follow maybe Mata! Source. . HP"

What makes you think Guardiola will be available in the summer?

Who ever posted this needs a good slap, you do not have a clue what you are on about, how the hell do you know guardiolas targets before hes even came, he won't even come any way you joke so stop chatting s*** trying, your typing what you wish was true, grow up you bad bad joke

Players LFC are currently looking at to sign in Jan will only be palyers to improve the squad. NESV have set out a mandate thta all players signed must have a speak good english.

Being looked at currently are Eriksen, Honda, Clyne, Rakatic, Pienaar, Elmander, Stocker, Wijnaldum, Mexes. Of course not all will sign, but expect Mexes too, as he has turned downed a contract with Roma and will be available for as little as £3m.

NESV are conscious that a great deal of spending in the Jan transfer window will lead to inflated prices in the summer when the real business wil take place. Players being scouted with a view to summer deals include Llorente, Arnautovic, Kiesling, Sahin.

Also expect cheeky bids for rival team players, mainly spurs and city to mark a signal ofintent from NESV. Expect a bid for Modric, as Comolli really loves him, and bids for Jo, Kompany and possibly Silva. Jo and Silva will be more likely.kk

Rennes midfielder Yann M'Vila has confessed to being a fan of the Premier League.

The 20-year-old insists that he watches games involving Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester United and their cross-town rivals City, amid reports that the player could be headed for a move across the English channel.

The Frenchman has a contract with his current club until 2014, but with reported financial problems it is believed that the Ligue 1 outfit could soon cash in on the starlet.

M'Vila told L'Equipe: "Which league do I watch on TV? The Premier League! It matches my game.

"It is a warrior's game, where you have to show plenty of fighting spirit.

"I like to watch Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea, but also Manchester City.

"I'm a big fan of the English state of mind and tackling."

But the young enforcer warned that he is not interested in moving to a European heavyweight in the near future if it means spending the majority of his time on the sidelines.

"You can't leave for a big club to be a substitute, " he noted.

"I prefer to stay at my club to improve. I want to work more on the attacking aspect of my game - scoring and assisting."
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Seems to be highly-rated.

We don't need another central midfielder. Or maybe we plan to play like a 4-3-3? Think we should go for a more creative player anyway, unless we plan on getting one aswell.

Look, to all you idiots who claim to know everything about Liverpool (besides Ed), i think you are all dillusional.
Fernando will not be leaving in January, maybe the summer but defo not January.
Also to the lad who said that Torres would be going to Citeh and Tevez would be coming the other way, lmfao, Tevez is homesick you idiot and his choice to leave Citeh is nothing got to do with his un-happiness with playing for Man City but more of the fact that he is homesick and he wants to return to Argentna, so get your facts straight.
Think about it man, Liverpool are a club in decline whereas Citeh are a club on the up, so, why would Carlos want a move to LFC?

Also Ed, please moderate these rumours more competently please, i enjoy this website but some of the tripe that gets posted on here is absolute rubbish. Cheers
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
please moderate these rumours more competantly?? what world are you living in, its not the job of the eds to determine if a "rumour" is tripe or not, that's a matter for yourself to determine the validity of anything posted. There is such a concept as self moderation. which means if you don't believe it you either ignore it or reply giving the correct facts.
Personally i find the eds to be extremely competant and fair to all maybe you don't because the posts don't agree with your viewpoint.

I can see Carlos Tevez going to Spain. He hasn't even learned the English language yet for goodness sake. He speaks Spanish so he could move his family over to Spain.

R.Madrid and Barcelona could afford him and Madrid need a new striker (although I hear Mourinho and Perez are keen on Llorente as Perez wants more Spanish players in the team).

I hope he goes to Barcelona. Simply because I would hope with Tevez in the team there would be no more room for Fernando Torres who Barca are supposedly interesed in.

Roy has said there will be no quick fix signings in January, so we may get 2-3 young players in, that's it. No world-class wingers or strikers, that's my belief

Read into it though, he may be saying that even if we are signing big stars, it will not be a quick fix, it will take time to settle them and to fix the deeper lying problems at the club

word in liverpool people are still saying roy is getting the boot if its true its got to benefit liverpool fc, i believe its true simply because the people telling me are long time fans and have nothing to gain by telling lies, i do feel sorry for poor old ken dod though, the job was just far to big for him, bob paisleys skids {ed's note - Ken Dodd would have done a better job! At least his interviews would have been entertaining, and I would have been guaranteed to get some inside info as he is a very good friend of the family. The only trouble we would have is convincing him to spend money, he is tight as a duck's backside.}

Basically this is what is most likely going to happen, we are buying Honda, Young, Suarez and Fanni. We are selling Jovanovic, Babel, Agger, Johnson and Poulson.

What do you think about this Ed?

Also why does Konchesky get first team matches all of the time when he barely got them for fulham? {ed's note - I really don't know, it is not like he is playing well enough to deserve to stay in the side, but then Roy has always liked a settled side rather than an in-form side. As for your ins and outs, I would be very surprised if you were correct.}

Still nonsense. I want to see Honda also. But if this was in the Russian media then I'm sure it would have been reported over here in England - when the media in Spain, Italy, France and all over Europe report something about a club in England it usually makes the papers here.

Sure in a Dutch newspaper, it was reported that when Honda visited his old club VVV he told them he was talking with Liverpool and was going to move here. That's probably more reliable than your mate.

Strong rumours about buying a Swiss player from FC Basel called Valentin Stocker, don't know much about him. . Ed you heard about him or this rumour?
- -

I rate Stocker as talented and he plays very well on the left wing for FC Basel in the Swiss championship (But swiss championship means nothing - seen Degen?).
I don't see him successful in the EPL with Pool, where he get's no time to play and is wasting his talent.
It would be better for him to start in a midtable Club in the Bundesliga, where he gets more practice and the game is different.

Cheers

We need a better wing. . {ed's note - is he a winger then? When I have seen him he was playing central and was distinctly average, probably explains why if he is a winger!}

Rumour going round that Alonso may be joining us in the summer if we can stump up £26m, he is untested at Madrid. I personally can't understand why he is Spanish and pulling the strings there. But that's the rumour at the minute, and before someone says it Torres will NOT be going the other way no chance.

Ed - have you heard this rumour?

Rumours Ive heard recently through various media types are that we have put in an early bid in for Suarez at Ajax for around £12.5 million pounds. . believe Ajax want more but we could throw in Jovanovic in the deal. .

Also linked with Ashley Young for £15

Strong rumours about buying a Swiss player from FC Basel called Valentin Stocker, don't know much about him. . Ed you heard about him or this rumour?

Rennes star Yann M'Vila is heavily linked although don't know if we need him and finally I saw one rumour regarding the French centre back Mamadou Sahko. . personally I think he'd be a great signing, young and highly recommended. Ed. .you heard much about the last two. Certainly match the criteria of player calibre we are meant to be striving to get at Anfield. .

{Editor's Note: They are all just rumours right now - but there appears to be some serious interest in Stocker.}

There is a big difference between someone who has an inside source and someone who puts '2 and 2 together' from whole bunch of things they're heard, read and seen. and even if the 'credible information' doesn't end up happening but still does come from a reliable source than that's still better than the hundreds of people who just post wish lists and random guesses and potentially get one right eventually.

ok, so i have an inside source. he told me were getting 3 players in jan. striker, left winger and a centre back. .im obviously talking tripe, i have no inside source or any credible information. same as everybody who posts on this site. just because they claim to have inside information, doesn't mean they do. this also goes for those who claim to know a player from the reserves or academy. they know nothing, because the players know nothing. therefore, still not a reliable source. only people who are 'in the know' are members of the board, who don't let anything out

{Editor's Note: I am by no means sure where this is going. There are a number of folks across the various sites, not just Liverpool, who are in a position to share some meaningful information. Equally, there are many who are wishfully thinking of Aguero or Dzecko moving to Liverpool and wish to put their view across. I think the choice of whether to consider something as being potentially correct or pure fantasy needs to be left in the hands of the readers.}

"What makes you think Guardiola will be available in the summer?"

Pep is on a rolling contract i.e. yearly renewable, though I doubt he will want to join us"

Thanks, that was kinda my point, i think the original poster saw the contract end date and assumed he'd be available. I just can't see it. He has a rolling yearly contract because he states it keeps him motivated and ensures he's always on his toes. He's Barca through-and-through and to be honest i'm unsure how good a manager he'd be at any other team. He's used to working with youngsters that have adapted over years to a system that allows them to easily slot into the first team, how'd he cope with Liverpool's slightly skewed system at present? He is a model of what can happen if you take a chance on a young manager though, fingers crossed NESV have taken note.

I bet he can't rub his face as well as our Roy though. ;)

13 Dec 2010 05:24:56Ed there should be a credible rumours section where people who have proven to have actual credible knowledge in the past can post. those like macca and eds and some others. or anyone else who can convince u they actually have 'inside info'.

"theres no such thing as a 'credible' rumour. rumours are the result of certain things happening, which leads to people trying to put 2 and 2 together, usually coming up with 5. eg. martin jol leaves ajax, chris hughton sacked, must mean martin jol will be next newcastle manager? that's a rumour. but like most rumours, this was not the case. only a small percentage of the time do people get it right. although all it usually is, is a good guess."

there is a big difference between someone who has an inside source and someone who puts '2 and 2 together' from whole bunch of things they're heard, read and seen. and even if the 'credible information' doesn't end up happening but still does come from a reliable source than that's still better than the hundreds of people who just post wish lists and random guesses and potentially get one right eventually.

13 Dec 2010 11:32:26
Dear Mr Henry,

It is with a very heavy heart that I am writing to you, and the reason why I am writing to you is because of the manager's position at our club. Over the course of this season the club has went from one embarrassing moment to the next, stumbled from one unwanted new low to another and all of the time the culprit for causing this is just one man. . Roy Hodgson.

Roy came to the club in the summer and has since shown every trait that a Liverpool manager SHOULDN'T. I obviously don't need to go through the season game by game and point out to you how poor things have been but here are a collection of Roy's quotes since his arrival:

. Describing Northampton Town as formidable, (what's that about. . they're in the 4th tier of English football for a reason! )
. Calling a victory in Trabzonspor "famous". . (I don't need to tell you that Liverpool Football Club is one of the most famous sporting institutions in the entire world, we have had success that others could never even dream about and although we are not as successful as we were, in recent years we have beaten Inter Milan, Barcelona, Real Madrid in the Champions League and domestically Man Utd, Chelsea etc in their own back yards. . victories against Trabzonspor in the Europa League DO NOT come close)
. Saying (albeit tongue in cheek) that he hoped not to lose 6-0 to Man City.
. Saying he wasn't expecting anything out of the Birmingham City game.
. Describing a 2-2 draw at home to Sunderland as finishing the week off with a high point.
. Letting Alex Ferguson get away with calling Torres a cheat. . (it took him 5 days to actually back Torres publically)
. Saying that "To get a result here would have been Utopia" referring to playing Everton away despite the fact we hadn't lost their in the league for a few years before his arrival!
. Calling the Spirit of Shankly Union members who were organising a protest against our previous owners a certain "group of people". . alienating fans that are trying to help progress the club. . and of course this classic
. "The protest does not help but it is something I have had to live with since I came to the club" (Did he not see that this "group of people" were trying to rid the club of a cancer that is killing the club and their removal would actually make the manager's job a hell of a lot easier?)
. His ill informed comments about Kenny Dalglish's "mistreatment" by Rafa Benitez
. His attempts to start an unnecessary and un-Liverpool like media row with previous boss Rafa Benitez
. His public criticism of certain players such as Daniel Agger, Glen Johnson and his apparent freezing out of young starlet Dani Pacheco
. And so not to bore you to death I'll leave you with his most recent one, after our defeat to Newcastle "For a team that wants to be in the top half it's not good enough". . top half. . top half??

His quotes and his approach mimic the mentality of a manager in charge of a club which would not be of the stature of Liverpool Football Club. The way his constantly tries to dampen expectations in his interviews is done so that when his lack of tactical nous becomes apparent he can simply use his self preserving quotes to take the attention of his own short comings. His motivational skills leave a lot to be desired and the sight of him scratching his chin looking like someone who (as I heard someone say the other day) "doesn't understand the question let alone know the answer", is a terrible sight for anyone associated with the club. As he slumped in his seat during the final minutes of the Newcastle game like a disgruntled supporter rather than a pro-active manager, for me that was the last straw, my patience had run out with him many weeks ago but I never felt the anger towards a Liverpool manager as I had right then.

He has played the media card very well, he has been thus far above criticism, coupling that with the fact there are certain sections of the English media who seem to be more than happy with the demise of our football club, only the other night certain "experts" on Sky Sports tried to tell us how much "progress" we had made under Roy. .

Here is how we have fared at this date (13th of December) for the ten seasons before Roy's arrival:

2000 P17 Pts 27 Goal Difference +8 Pos 6th
2001 P15 Pts 33 Goal Difference +14 Pos 1st
2002 P17 Pts 31 Goal Difference +10 Pos 4th
2003 P16 Pts 22 Goal Difference +5 Pos 9th - Gerard Houllier got the boot

2004 P16 Pts 24 Goal Difference +6 Pos 7th
2005 P15 Pts 31 Goal Difference +12 Pos 2nd
2006 P17 Pts 28 Goal Difference +8 Pos 5th
2007 P15 Pts 30 Goal Difference +18 Pos 4th
2008 P17 Pts 38 Goal Difference +15 Pos 1st
2009 P16 Pts 24 Goal Difference +10 Pos 7th - Rafa got the boot

2010 P17 Pts 22 Goal Difference -1 Pos 9th

So where is the progress?

The experts will probably try to say that Liverpool are in fact closer to the top as they are 10 points behind the leaders this year, where as they were 13 points behind at this stage last season, not taking into account that the leaders are in fact 5 points worse off at this point then they were last season (2009 Chelsea played 16 had 37 points. . 2010 Arsenal played 16 have 32 points, Note: Arsenal also have a game in hand on Liverpool)

Liverpool are 6 points clear of the relegation zone. . RELEGATION ZONE?? . . There's 2 words which many generations of Liverpool fan didn't have in their vocabulary, until this year, and for the record we were 10 points clear of it at this stage last season.

As for goals scored and goal difference, I cannot ever remember Liverpool having a negative goal difference in the league in December, we had a -2 before Monday night's game; it was before the game that the "experts" were talking up Liverpool's "progress". . Since we have played and lost to Newcastle and now we have scored 21 goals this season, compared to 32 at this date last season, we now have a -1 in the goal difference column compared to a +10 last season.

Our away form has been nothing but shocking this season too. . Away from Anfield this season we have played 9 games and in almost half of these games we failed to even score, (that's a big fat zero against Birmingham, Stoke, Everton and Man City, with Man City being the only team actually ahead of Liverpool in the league at this time and in those 4 corresponding fixtures last season, we only failed to score against Man City and were unbeaten against all 4) but in these 9 games we have scored 6 goals, conceded 16 and have 5 points at this date last season we had scored 10 times conceded 12 and had 10 points!

Continuing on the theme of away form, we have had 1 win, 2 draws and 6 defeats away from Anfield, the game at Tottenham Hotspur was said to have been our "best away performance" of the season, but looking back, were we really that good?. . I don't think so.

Roy has won 1 of his last 27 away games in the league. . he has won 13 away games out of almost 110 attempts. . how are these statistics associated with the manager of such a massive club with massive expectations?

At this point I would like to say that I am comparing stats to last season, a season that the experts, continually told the world that wasn't good enough for a club like Liverpool and subsequently leading to our manager being removed. . yet the stats from "the worst season ever" as some were referring to it last season are actually BETTER than this season and that's not taking into account that our previous manager had to deal with the awful behind the scenes turmoil that our previous owners caused, Roy complained before the game against Blackpool that the protests against the owners were a distraction "Those people aren't making my job any easier" is what he said, but, thankfully, the ownership issue was sorted just 9 weeks into the season, where as our last manager had to deal with them for 3 YEARS, also last season up to Christmas we had been involved in the Champions League and therefore we could not rest our better plays, as Roy has been allowed to do in the Europa League this season. Roy has also, up to a couple of weeks ago had our best players constantly at his disposal, and last season the manager didn't!

To summarise, at this stage of the season Liverpool Football Club has its:
. Worst points ratio at this stage of the season in donkeys years,
. Lowest position in the table
. Worst away form,
. Worst goal difference and
. Had a Stint in the relegation zone
So now can somebody tell where all this mythical progress is taking place?

There is NO progress though is there, week by week the club is being dragged downwards, the morale of the fans is shattered, the body language of the players is awful, everyone is down in the dumps and the longer Roy has had in the job the worse things have become, therefore the longer he is here there is only one direction we will all go.

The next thing that will probably be rolled out in Roy's defence is that Rafa left him, with what I believe has been referred to by the media as "a mess". . can someone explain to me how it was common belief in May 2009 when Liverpool finished 2nd on 86pts that they had "over achieved", last season they finished 7th and had "under achieved" so Rafa "had to go" and yet Roy who re-shaped the squad adding Joe Cole aged 29, Raul Meireles 27, Christian Poulsen 30, Paul Konchesky 29, Milan Jovanovic 29, Brad Jones 28 and Fabio Aurelio 30, all very senior, very experienced players, (Meireles the only one who has had a positive impact on the current squad) who cost a considerable amount of money, has statistics which are factually inferior to his predecessor, but yet the experts are giving the impression that he (Roy Hodgson) is doing a good job with the "mess" that Rafa left behind?

Roy seemed very proud to be able to tell the world that he had the chance to sing Rafael Van Der Vaart in the summer but turned him down as he wasn't the type of player he wanted, yet he has wasted millions on players like Konchesky, Poulsen (who have turned out to be arguably 2 of the worst players ever to wear a Red shirt) and Jones. And now he has been talking about Carlton Cole being a possible target. . Carlton Cole to Liverpool. . give me strength?

Our previous manager attracted some top quality internationals, we were the 2nd most represented club team at the World Cup during the summer (only behind Barcelona), if you want a return on your investment then surely we should have a manager in place who can attract young players of quality such as Reina, Torres (and the departed Alonso and Mascherano) rather than run of the mill, middle aged (for a footballer anyway) players such as the aforementioned Poulsen and Konchesky.

Our previous manager also believed in trying to attract young talent, Roy simply has no interest in signing young players.
I realise that you did not put him in charge, Roy is seen by almost every Liverpool fan as the last part of the previous owners disastrous regime, and your belief in sabermetrics goes against everything that Roy is and against every player that Roy has signed, so now I beg you, please for the sake of keeping the few world class players we have at the club, for the sake of every Liverpool fans sanity, for the sake of the morale of every Liverpool fan who has ever stepped inside any ground to cheer the Redmen on, for the sake of the traditions of the club that you now own, for the sake of getting Liverpool Football Club on the road to being successful again or even just for the sake of you getting a return on your investment, please rid us of this man, the sooner he is gone the sooner that the disgruntled players, the fans and the club can be united in getting us back to where we belong in world football.

You used Twitter after we had beaten Chelsea this season to post this "An indication of what can happen when this group comes together as one?". . so imagine what we could do if everybody was pulling in the same direction every week of the season?

Yours sincerely

That way they might learn something new, otherwise they will carry on believing the wrong thing. As for Honda, I certainly hope so, I really don't expect to hear anything about the players we are actually going for.}

Posted a few weeks back, that a close family friend is close to the board at liverpool and mentioned, the possible return of michael owen, this looks very unlikely now as is now looks as if he is moving to villa, because of this. liverpool now looking to bring in Suarez from ajax but the dutch club yet to acknowledge it and might not even consider it. .
G. Johnson is looking for a move away from anfield, and looks like heading towards Inter, and liverpool wanting Eto'o or Milito in exchange. . Liverpool also due to hold a meeting with JC, SG, FT and Commoli to look at possible transfer for next season.

A realistic Liverpool squad after Jan transfer window

. . . . . . . .Reina. . . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Johnson. Carragher. Agger. Taiwo
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
. . . Mireless. . Gerrard. . . . . .
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
. Payet. . . . . . . . . . . .M'vila. . .
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
. . . . . .Torres . . . Suarez. . .
main res Jones Aurélio Kyrgiakos Skrtel Kelly Babel Cole
Shelvy Maxi Suso Ngog

In
Taiwo: 8m ( we cud get him free as contract running out)
Payet 8m
M'villa 14m
Suarez 13m
Out
Konskesky 4m
Poulson 4m (by far worst mid in the team)
Lucas 8m ( he has turned things around dis season but i still think hes bettr of somwere else)
Kuyt: 8m
Aqua 14m
this i hope will be the squad by the end of transfer window it has very effective changes

(0) (2)

Yann M'villa plays as a center midfielder so i doubt he will be playing on the left, , but then again, , with that empty head in charge he might play there.

Poulsen £3m
Konchesky £2m
Skertel £8m
Aurelio £2m

Total Raised: Approx. £90m
Cash In Transfer Pot £35m (as reported)
Total Budget £125m

S. Taylor £Free

Total: £115m

XI

GK: Reina
RB: Johnson
CB: Sahko
CB: Agger
LB: Cissoko
CM: Benega
AM: Gerrard
LW: A. Young
RW: Mata
CF: Suarez
ST: Lukaka

2 XI

GK: Jones
RB: Kelly
CB: Carra
CB: Alaya
LB: Insua
CM: Spearing
AM:Miereles
LW: Honda
RW: J. Cole
ST: Toivenen
ST: Wickham

This squad is large and young enough to be kept together for many a year. This is the intent of the owners. They may pick up and get rid of a few players in Jan but most activity will come in the Summer both ins and outs. This is exactly what the squad needs and very realistic given the runours present and past - an overhaul right through with an average age of just 23 years old.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

I 1st thought you were a bit naive - but on second thoughts its quite possible - what I'd add is that we are due £12m from Aquiliani deal - and I would also get rid of Keriagos and step Wilson into the fold - otehrwise Im wid you on da squad. I would replace Young with Honda on the 1st team though and change sides with Mata

Hey guys

Kopsource reports today that LFC have tabled a 12.5mil bid for Luis Suarez.
What do u guys make of this?
Any truth to it? How reliable is this source?
yes? no? maybe? i don't know? {ed's note - having looked the story seems to have originated in the Metro, it is just another tabloid newspaper.}

Hey ed, what do you think about trying to get Aleksandar Kolarov from city? They hardly use him.

{Editor's Note: We will not be signing a left back in January.}

My friend is Ray Putteril, he used to play for us and is now at Acrington Stanley. He still speaks to the lads from liverpool and the rumor is that Torres is leaving in the summer no questions asked. However he has said under non certain terms will it be to another PL team. He wants to go back home, and his likley destination is Barca in a swap deal with Ibrahimovic (if AC don't take him on a permanent). Another one is he will go back to Athletico in a cash plus Kun Aguero deal unsure how much cash though.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - -
please not ibrahimovic, he has got to be the most overrated footballer ever. if we were to swap with barca, i would much rather pedro/ bojan + cash.

Heard that Liverpool are going to try to sign Ganso for £23m, NESV want to build for the future with a model similar to Arsne Wengers team, what are your thoughts ed? {ed's note - I really have not seen enough of the lad to judge him, another editor has raved about him to me in the past though, so maybe he has something special about him.}

According to King Kenny, Roy hasn't walked and has branded the claim a "malicious rumour". However, I am led to believe that he hasn't yet. There was undoubtedly a meeting held today (well, yesterday) and the manager situation was touched upon. The problem is Roy's signings, with NESV unwilling to give the guy who brought Poulsen and Konchesky the chance to blow their hard-earned money on total toss. Now I know any transfder decision now goes to a panel, but Roy will always get a big voice in these debates, after all he is the manager and the one who has to work with them. If he doesn't want the player then it's going to be bad for the player and manager (Rafa and Robbie Keane instantly springs to mind). If he is sacked, which I stand by is unlikely, then Kenny Dalglish will be advising NESV on who would be suited to the role, with Villas Boas is a big contender. Kenny has been to a few Porto games this season and has put in a good word about him to Henry and co. Another manager is Kenny's fellow Scot Owen Coyle, who's worked wonders at Bolton so far. Finally a big shout for Roberto Mancini who is likely to be giventhe boot with Citeh fans not likened to him, but the latter is (extremely) unlikely.

Transfer news and there is a strong likelyhood of Fernando Torres leaving Liverpool in January. The big news to this is that any move will see his replacement go the other way so there is no surprise when he's linked with Citeh and Tevez could be the man to replace him. Not someone I want as he's a player who works for himslef and not the team, awfully similar to Ashley Young. Inter are heavily linked too, with Goran Pandev likely to replace him. Finally it's Bayern Munich with the other link, Mario Gomez to replace him although again, the latter is unlikely. The only way Fernando will stay is if 2 World Class players join in January, with a strike partner the main ask.

SO who will we get? Well, Fernando Llorente is Fernando's no. 1 ask to no shock, although admits he'd welcome Peter Crouch back.
He also wants another one. Well simply enough Skrtel isn't good enough. In fact, he's toss. He will be replaced by Jan Vertonghen, who isn't world class, but good.- - - - - - - - - - - - - -


do you know whether llorente is being seriously considered for a bid?

Look, to all you idiots who claim to know everything about Liverpool (besides Ed), i think you are all dillusional.
Fernando will not be leaving in January, maybe the summer but defo not January.
Also to the lad who said that Torres would be going to Citeh and Tevez would be coming the other way, lmfao, Tevez is homesick you idiot and his choice to leave Citeh is nothing got to do with his un-happiness with playing for Man City but more of the fact that he is homesick and he wants to return to Argentna, so get your facts straight.
Think about it man, Liverpool are a club in decline whereas Citeh are a club on the up, so, why would Carlos want a move to LFC?

Also Ed, please moderate these rumours more competently please, i enjoy this website but some of the tripe that gets posted on here is absolute rubbish. Cheers

Heard torres wants to go back to spain, not happy with whats going on at club, and looking at trying to sign benzema swap plus cash?dont know if true.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

He won't go to Real Madrid, given his links with Atletico Madrid. He hates Real Madrid. If he leaves Liverpool the most likely destination would be Barcelona in my opinion.

I just got a major news from my sources (more than one). But it is impossible to reveal every single info. What I will say is there is 100% chance that one of the major player will be leaving in January. Search for new manager is GOING ON. The new owners have touched on manager from Portugal and Italy. Again I am 100% sure we will NOT get the new manager who is British or Currently managing in EPL. More coming soon. . .
