And then there were two............ Kenny or Roy?

[Kenneth]

I'm going to find that very difficult to do even if the new man is Dalglish, let alone Hodgson or anyone else.

It's not actually because I love Rafa so much or any other crap like that. It's solely because the way he has been treated and, more important, what his sacking says about the club, how it's run and its future prospects, means the LFC I know and love no longer exists.

Of course I'd try to support any manager and it would certainly be less of a wrench to support Dalglish but it really doesn't feel like Liverpool any more.

Cheers up mate, it could be worse

Phwoar!!!!

[el matador]

The thing to remember again is the Kenny factor

NO OTHER managerial candidate has competed with / nor got the job ahead of anybody with such legendary status

You cant get bigger than Kenny in terms of living legend status and to get the job ahead of him you would (in most fans eyes) have to be something special

Roy doesnt fit that bill in any way shape or form and its why I do not believe he will in anyway be afforded the usual support afforded to managers (even outsiders as you put it)

roy hodgson isnt stupid. He will know that the vast majority of supporters are behind kenny and that if he gets the job instead of dalglish then the support from the fans will be there - but it wont be universal.

Liverpool fans will back the manager no matter who it is - but he wont get anything like the support that dalglish would get and that might just decide it for him. Going to Liverpool you really need everyone behind you - the players and the fans and simply put he wont.

He is a nice fella and doesnt deserve the stick he is getting from some of us especially since he hasnt even got the job yet. But I really dont think we need someone to get us out of this depression that the club is in and only kenny could do that.

I voted for Guus 1st time around aswell. I have warmed to the idea of Kenny coming back to steady the ship and hopefully appease Gerrard and co.

I , on the other hand, am not sulking about Rafa's departure at all. I am sorry to see him go but I'm also hopeful that we'll see a better brand of football with the talent we have. I'm sick to death of us playing two holding mids at home .

Attack,
attack,
attack attack attack
That's what I want to see

Totally agree! After all that's what the Liverpool teams of the 70's and 80's were all about, solidity and attacking football!

No, they weren't, the we're with the exception of the 87/88 team based around solid defence and passing, grinding the opposition into the ground.

is absolutely correct.

If anything you have to look at the comparison with chelsea.

but the side that kenny built was just pure nectar. If anyone can get hold of liverpool thrashing united 4 - 0 at anfield it was just brilliant.

Watch it - i doubt we've played anything like it since that era.

1990? Agreed, breathtaking stuff

I'd argue that the 5-0 Forest game was better, but they're pretty close

Dare to dream?

Aye, when that **** Les Sealey booted the ball out of the ground afterwards so beardo couldn't have his Hattrick ball.

Aye they was the day's and that performance was just about perfect except for a few missed chances in the first half , Gillespie scored a cracker at the kop end and digger nut megged someone on the corner flag to set up beardsley , How I dream for those days to return...............I'm feeling ****ing depressed again now fella cheers

[Icon]

Kenny getting closer..?

Clicky

[anfieldanfield]

Did we actually play two holding mdfielders at home against the weaker sides? Gerrard played there quite a lot and Lucas was given license to get forward more. I'd be interested to see some stats on this.

Are any teams successful with this mantra though? Fair enough i'll give you Barca but even they employ a high tempo pressing game. I'm just not sure all out attack would get us anywhere and would certainly lead to a dip in performance in Europe.

I'm not the stats man but we defo did play with both masher and lucas at home against the weaker sides at times.

Why shouldn't we attack , attack, & attack some more. Much rather see us win 4-3 than grind out ****ty 1-0 wins and have to wake the old man when it's time to go home cause he's nodded off through boredom FCOL.

To each there own but I'd rather see us go down fighting than boring the opposition into submission. That's Everton's style not ours!
