Fans gone mad?

[The Glove]

I'm just going by what IS happening, as opposed to what MIGHT happen.

There's little point in speculating, i can only react to the realities, rather than what may or may not be.

I find it very hard to believe that someone who says they support Rafa can be so critical and not willing to give the benefit of the doubt to what Rafa actually says by way of explination.

Since you know that eveyone gets things wrong why are you so quick to stick the knife into a man you support who more often than not is right?

What do you actually want from LFC? What is it you are looking for? What is Rafa missing that you are not? YOu say you are prepared to give Rafa until next season so why are you so negative? YOu dont take on board any word of defence of Rafa. You may slate the Rafa can do no wrong people but atleast they all acknoledge that things arent as rosy as can be right now yet you dont ever accept any reason they or the man himslef offer.

Our current form has left us in 7th place. People are saying our current form is due to the injuries and will improve when the players return.

So if they didnt return this season, what would change to improve our form, in their absence?

You think they will be out all season? Despite a) the nature of their injuries, b) the return time reported by LFC?

It's half full mate. BTW Sup on the half empty, we've disolved some Prozac in it.

They also seemingly selected players of a sufficient ability to sign and use in their rotation systems. Either that, or they usually made wiser choices when it came to deciding which games to rotate and who to rotate in them.

And had sufficient funds to do so.

If i'm speculating, i'm doing so based on what is currently happening.

If what was happening now was all positive, you could justifiably speculate towards the positive with something REAL and current to base it on.

We obviously look at life in different manners.
Nothing wrong with that.

I am not saying it is all rosy, but is sure isn't black either, so have another ice cream and kick back.

I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt by virtue of saying i dont want him gone. I'm hopeful he'll sort it out and ultimately think he will, though i'm not convinced it'll happen soon enough for us to genuinely sustain a title challenge.

At the moment, i think he's getting more wrong than right. And as previously mentioned, when i see decisions that i consider incorrect being made repeatedly, that's highly frustrating.

All i want is for the manager to go into each game utilising the players and approach which gives us the best chance of winning. Against at least 15 of our opponents, we have the superior side, yet for some reason, we dont play to our strengths and according to our superior ability. That doesnt give us the best chance of winning and this therefore disappoints me.

but as not what as happened previously,the silverware already produced and what has happened in general at LFC not give you a glimpse of the future .....enough to look over a blip?

No i didnt say i think they'll be out all season. I just said supposing it happened. Then what?

The point i'm trying to make here is that we shouldnt be so fecked when THREE players are missing. That suggests we cant possibly cope without them. If that is indeed the case, then there's a serious problem.

So how did Manure do w/o Ronaldo and Rooney?

They won nearly all their matches. Mostly 1-0. Struggled but still got the points.

You see what I mean though. Indicates that we will be much better with XA, DA and FT. No?

[Craig_H]

So have we. We just didnt spend the funds as wisely as we could've done.

Arsenal havent had anything LIKE the funds Chelsea and United did. How is that one explained?

It certainly isnt black. I've never said it was mate. We're 6 off the top which is nothing at this stage.

My worry is more the fact that we're playing poorly and have a lot of improvements to make in our play if we want to ensure that '6' doesnt expand rapidly.

Forget the hypotheticals, let's deal w/Reality.

How much better do you think we will be, when they are back? 10%, 50%, 100%. Eh?

[Craig_H]

In the context of the league though, what has happened previously hasnt been good enough either.

[Nic83]

Oh most definitely. Just as we would be if Rafa started playing Crouchy and our other better quality footballers more often.


They all contribute but those 3 you mention, for me, are all massivley important.
