Whats are longest winning streak in the league this ? we just can't seem to put a run together

wow thats shocking with that stat i'm surprised where even in the shake up for 4th still

I lost to where we go from here in terms how we get more goals out of the current squad, downing has been awful for me club to big for him, I remember John Bradley on lfctv saying we have to sign him last season because of the assists he provides we no goals no assists

Lessons I would have thought Kenny would have learned by now:

You can't try to play counter-attacking football against a side that doesn't attack.

You can't play one of the slowest forwards in the game as a target man lone striker ahead of a midfield that doesn't advance.

You can't play two inverse wingers when your striker needs accurate crosses.

Keeping a clean sheet is not more important than winning the game.

Being unbeaten is not more important than winning the game.

Stability is about having a best XI and rotating it to keep players fresh. Only Bellamy cannot play every game, so the rest of the team should be the same week in and week out unless the players are under-performing or we have a high fixture load.

Being good in training is not enough.

More draws than wins at home is not good enough.

A draw is not worth 50% of the points on offer for a win.

Winning the League Cup is not more important than finishing 4th. If it has become so then it is because we have given up on 4th. If we have given up on 4th and we lose the League Cup semi-final, then Kenny might as well be sacked immediately as he has failed to deliver on all fronts, including managing to improve us as a threat.

In summary, I'd take Benitez and his baggage over any manager who tries to defend at home against unambitious or promoted sides. Dalglish may have a better record than Hodgson, but you wouldn't know it from the football we've produced in the last month.

Touché, Thundyr!

Hit it right on the head Thundyr every point is right, and the thing to remember is for the first 2-3 seasons Rafa had little or no money compared with his later years and Daglish at the moment.
Also Rafa had to play way more fixtures each season comapared with dalglish at the moment.

totally agree

Well said thundyr, todays game was the final straw for me.. Either Kenny needs to have a serious look in the mirror - or else he needs to step down

spot on like normal
