Repeating yourself wumboy, **** off.
You're no better than a manc.

If you are saying he's a wind up merchant, why are you giving him exactly what he wants?

Well, not anymore, he has gone on holiday.

[kev776]

And if that hadn't worked would you have said he should have gone for those reasons?
We lack depth, that much is clear but the problem started with ****ty defending at the start of the season and we have had trouble from there and during that time we had been trying to attack but we conceded a lot of poor goals doing so.

I really like Rafa, but he has tried for 6 years and we are no closer, last year this team peaked. Villa and Spurs have spent about the same amount in his tenure and at the moment are stronger than us.

There were times this year when he sent out the team "not to lose" rather than to win, to Liverpool this is unaceptable, we should be trying to win every game.

The away leg against a mid-table Spannish team summed it up. Not one shot on target!

Nice guy and a good coach but it has failed.

We've played poorly but we've still got the likes of Reina, Mascherano, Lucas, Gerrard, Torres, Benayoun, Carragher, Johnson, Insua etc ... We just need more top class players.

We have too many holes to fill and who knows if we have any money to spend. What worries me is lack of updates about Masch's contract extension. He is one of the few I wish we can sign long term.

It has been a **** season, but there is a difference between playing **** and playing simply not to lose and sadly we have just played **** a lot this season.

Last summer though, Villa and Spurs both spent more than we did.

The away leg at Athletico was after a gruelling round the clock trip by train and bus. How do you explain that we were top scorers last year and the year before that if the theory you are postulating in is correct?

We aren't that bad on the playing side it's off the field that we're a shambles.

Our squad is too weak.

We need a LB and a reserve striker as an absoloute minimum. I'd then add to that the need for a top class wide man. That is all without debating the quality of the current squad players. Mke no mistake about it, we are very short on quality throughout the squad.

7th place in the premier league and 18 defeats proves that. How anyone can dress it up is beyond me. Results don't lie.

It's for this reason alone that Rafa should walk. I'm not daft enough to sya we will get a better manager than him without question. What I will say is that he's had his chance and hasn't delivered.

Whilst I don't expect anyone to challenge until LFC get new owners, I do expect 4th place as the minimun requirement.

New owners
New manager
New players

It's going to be an interesting summer, change is in the air.

With out new owners I think we'd change manager every season if we have that. We'll never get anywhere.

New owners - Can't see it.
New manager - Possibly
New players - Can't see it.

Can't believe you put Insua in that list.

[SK]

i don't care about this game, i didn't care before i don't care now, it's too painful to care, i just want this season to be over with and the world cup to start so i can forget about LFC for a month, refresh my thoughts and start dreaming again, with new owners, new players coming in, hoping for a more attacking mindset from rafa, or if he goes, i'm hoping for a manager who will guide us to #19, 20, 21, 22, 23 and 24 in a row, hopefully ginsoak will retire at our #20 the mancs will fall apart with the debt burden, and go to league 1, and we'll catch real madrid's european record somewhere until 2018.

over and out.

That is far too much instability in one season.

We'll be alright. Let's hope Rafa carries on.
