It's amazing what Rodgers has done - means we can sneer at everyone else for spending millions and millions of pounds to try and kick on
    If Moyes stays next season, it changes very little. They could miss out on CL next year too and what then? They're just inching closer to financial meltdown.

      Oh I totally agree, don't get me wrong. Just enjoying looking down my nose at them for trying to spend their way out of trouble.
      Thanks very much for being

            The worrying thing will be, if and when Moyes gets the boot, they bring in someone who will actually get the best out of these.

            Mata, Rooney, RVP, Kroos, Carvalho, Shaw etc..

            Quality players with the right manager.

                  This really sets out the very good managers apart from the over rated ones. The two best managers in the league at the moment are Rodgers and Martinez. These others like Mourinho, Moyes etc just go out and throw money to solve a problem. No desire to develop or improve a player. They dont come close to Martinez and Rodgers in my book

                    Let’s not kid ourselves, if Rodgers and Martinez had the money, of course they would spend it too.
                    If we are all only happy when we are really winning in the end, when your race finishes, what life would that be?

                      Thats not the point though is it. They have excelled without spending it and went to clubs where they knew it wouldnt be available either

                        One major difference as I see it is that Rodgers will most likely stay at Liverpool for the forseeable whereas Martinez will no doubt move to a bigger club in due course.

                          Well that’s fair enough, but Moyes did the same at Everton. Like most managers would, once the money is there they are always going to spend it. Moyes needs an overhaul at United, so of course he’s going to have to spend big.

                            Most would say when we finished 7th we needed a major overhaul. There wasnt one though. A lot of our players have improved considerably in the last 12-18 months through coaching. Money hasnt been there but spending isnt always the answer.

                              Those 6 were bought for nearly £200m!!

                              Not taking in salary considerations which blows the budget further, RVP is injury prone and might be ending his career before Moyes is booted out next December. Kroos will be bullied under any manager, Carvalho is too young and Shaw vastly overrated for that money.

                              Mata is a fairweather player and Rooney is ageing in weight rather than time.

                              If all these deals come off its a [sarb]shocker!![/bras]
                              One tit for another.

                                With Jones and Smalling in central defence.
                                That rug really tied the room together.
