Legend status aside, he has to go.
Too many poor displays. A team with no end product.
100M spent when we were ranked 7th in the league. Fast Forward a year and we are still 7th and look worse.
Only slight positive is that we usually play good approach football but when the final ball is being delivered by Adam, Downing and Henderson... well... says it all really.
Adam today was atrocious. Can't recall a single game where he has had a stand out game, let alone even a very good one.
Henderson I am willing to keep and give more time (due to the fact that we would take a massive loss and he hasn't been used in his true role as a CM) but as for Adam and Downing they just have to go. No question.
Those two in particular have been epic failures. You can see that they don't have the heart or temperament to play for a 'Giant' team.
whether we are crap or not, Liverpool FC games and players are scrutinised like no other. Only Man U in this country get the attention we do.
Some players just can't cut it under the spotlight of the Anfield glare. Its just the way it is.
More research should have been done on the mental side of players.
You need to have the Suarez/C. Ronaldo type arrogance to make it at a big team and survive the constant pressure to deliver.
I could have told you from day one that Downing didn't have that.
We all know that type of player (aka Big fish in a small pond etc). Adam just isn't Liverpool Class.
I borderline really dislike him. He is so one-paced it is ridiculous. Constnatly gives away needless and dangerous fouls because of the above and as for his so-called saving grace of being able to pick a pass and deliver a set piece....... One word.... APPALLING.
Craney mentioned that free kick early in the 2nd half. When he stepped up with all the time in the world was I shocked to see it barely leave the ground and barely get past the two man wall?
No. Utterly expected. He delivers 1 good ball in 10 deliveries. Shocking.
So disillusioned right now. The Carling Cup seems like a year ago already.
Such bad spending its unreal. How will JW Henry react in the summer?
God knows but you can't see him trusting Dalglish with anymore cash after these utter flops.
Ferguson really must be pi$$ing himself after talking up Adam's deliveries saying they were worth 10m alone. really was trying to hurt us even more by getting the price up on such a poor player. Still mugging off us the old tramp.
I really wouldn't mind if anyone could convince me that their second seasons will be any better.
Just cut our losses. Just take the massive hit on Carroll and definitely Adam and get rid. Send Downing to a psychologist (because their is a player in there somewhere) and re-invest with the summer kitty with another manager.
Wish it would have worked with KD but it's not gonna happen.
Even if we win the F.A. Cup it doesn't matter. The league is the benchmark and we are just awful.
