Don't you all think that Kenny gets it? He knows that his signings aren't performing. After the b0ll0cking he gave them yesterday it'll be interesting to see his selection for wednesday and the teams reaction.
We can't lay all this at KDs door, how many of you were happy when we signed Carroll? I was, Downing? I was, Adam? I kinda was, and Henderson? he's a work in progress and so is LFC. Do we now expect 100% return from all our signings, same as in any other team there are going to be flops. We're not out of the running for CL yet, we're in 2 cups and one of our best players is back for the next league game, its not all doom and gloom folks and its not all KDs fault i wasnt happy with the signings of downing and carroll. i even started a thread stating how it was a sad day when we buy a player like carroll for 35m.

Suso, I'm just trying to look at the bigger picture, when you consider all we've been through as a club, especially the last 3 seasons it's hardly a surprise that we are where we are. We got left behind in the top 4 race cause hicks and gillette wouldn't spend any money, Rafa starts to lose it,then Roy and still no real investment, meanwhile city and spurs are attracting the players we used to attract. This happened over 3 seasons and it wont get fixed in1. Yes 35m was mad money for Carroll, an expensive gamble that hasn't paid off, but aren't most signings a gamble?

Well, ultimately there is a risk signing any player. But Carroll was a MUCH greater gamble than someone like Aguero. I don't mean to say we could have signed Aguero, but for the same price one was obviously a much better player than the other.

If the players are not performing which is the case, then there is no better person in my view to wield the axe and whip them into action. If this behaviour is not stopped then this club is playing itself into self ruin, if not already.
Since now, KD has been too nice and defending the players. They will now know what it was like during the halcyon days when you are only as good as your last game - that not only do you have to be a good footballer, you gotta have attitude when the chips are down.
When you think about it, it is not always Rafa, Houllier orRoy that was lacking, i mean yes they were deficient in some ways but hey no manager is perfect BUT the common denominator was always the players. and if this culture of not performing and being able to get away with it permeates through the club, we are done for.

KD needs to stop signing average british players for high fee's.
comolli, do not get me started on this TYWAT.
KD needs to stop fcuking about with his so called clever formations and stick to ie 442, 4141, 451.
KD needs to start playing downing as a left winger, play to carrolls ability, to get the best out of him ie sign a quality right winger, even on loan..krasic,
i think KD needs to bring in a top quality foriegn coach.
thier is a very very fine line between winning n losing and KD needs to get his signing right this month, if he wants a CL place for next season.
krasic, graneo on loan deals,
hoillet, sow sign them.
4 quality players, that can improve the starting 11 massively and can be signed for under 15m.
if KD does not sign or get players on loan this month, then he is their to be shot at and the buck stops with him.
KD is 3/4 quality players short of getting a Cl place this season.
