After how busy we have been this summer in the market, and how keen we seem to be to get rid of the shiite and bring in qaulity, our latest looking to be Coates. I get this massive feeling that this all going to work right this time around and the "glory days" are alot closer than maybe we realise.
Im not saying we will win the league this season, but i believe we will go close, 2nd or 3rd...
We are building a very strong TEAM, there is alot to be positive about if your a Liverpool fan atm.
Does anyone else feel we are guna shock people this season and just progress from there on?

I do feel more optomistic this season with a hint of caution,only cos of what we have been through the last 5 yrs say ,getting shot down in flames when we thought we might progress, but,he who dares wins!

Does anyone else feel we are guna shock people this season and just progress from there on? There's many reasons to be postive - likely signing of Coates, ownersw willing to put their money with their mouth is, beating Arsenal 2-0 at the Emirates (allright we rode our luck but how many Prem games have we lost despite being the better sides), getting rid of some of the [oops] (I'm gutted AA left, but if we can offload some of the high earning but low impact players likes Poulsen and Cole and also N'Gog and P'checko) - but don't start counting your chickens before there hatched and saying things like we should come 2nd etc is the type of overconfident statements that have seen us trip up before I don't like saying it but in the 2nd half against Tottenham Man Utd looked pretty incredible and Mancini can't missfire again with the squad he's got at his disposal - so I don't think rivaling these two sides is really a realistic ambition, whilst to be the next best team and get back into the top 4 most definitely is I still have some concerns - Henderson's performances have led me to conclude that my earlier harsh assessment of him was actually a fair reflection of his ability and if Kenny keeps playing him at the expense of Kuyt, Johnson, Meireles and Maxi Rodriguez then we'll have problems, and Carroll still looks as if he's treading water But overall its looking good - being quietly confident ought to be the order of the day

The owners have certainly demonstrated intent, and things are looking a lot better than they were in Rafa's last season, and a million miles better than under Hodgson.
The fact that we're signing some good players, and doing the right things, doesn't mean though, that we'll be heading back to glory. Man U are also doing the right things. Man City are improving their team every year at huge financial cost. We have to be doing things better than all the teams to catch up and overtake. Are we? Not sure yet.
The Arsenal result was fantastic, and a good performance too, but the Sunderland one was poor. We've always been capable of putting in amazing results on a given day, it's the consistency of United that we haven't had.
By all accounts our youth setup is top class now, but is it better than United's? If not, then we'll be playing catchup in the future too.
I also think some things have not been done perfectly. We've overpaid for a few players now, and were ripped off. Henderson and Carroll spring to mind. Are we getting a fee for Aquilani? If not then we're being ripped off. And we haven't got rid of as many high wage ineffective players as we could have. Joe Cole Poulsen, Degen, Aurelio and Insua are still hanging around. If the average wage of these players is 50k (a guess), then we're paying 12-13m a year for these guys to not even play.
I'm a lot happier though, and there's still time to get rid of a few more, and maybe bring one more in. Coates sounds interesting. I actually believe we are making better improvement than any other top four challengers right now, United are just replacing what has been lost, Manchester city did not really have anything to improve, Arsenal are losing key players and sort of falling apart, Spurs have not made much signings yet and Chelsea still have an experienced but aging squad.As I see it we are making big strides towards great achievements again.

Agree with what you say about Arsenal and Tottenham, and Chelsea are big unknowns, but United already look considerably stronger this saeasin that their title-winning side of last season Phil Jones looks very good indeed, Young has seyttled in strauight away and is already firing for them, Smalling looks like another top-quality player and Cleverly and Wellbeck more than look the part They might have lost Paul Scholes but the form of these five more than compensates - and the utterly vile Wayne Rooney is back in the groove Even if their new keeper looks a little nervous, I always thought Van De Saar overrated And City have massively strengthened - despite the fact they didn't need to Even an average manager like Mancini should be capable of steering them to 1st or 2nd
