If winning the Carling Cup is not enough to keep a manager in his post, then clearly the premier league clubs need to sack a few more managers than they do each season. Since they don't, and since actually winning the trophy is the best one can do in a competition, obviously the author is padding what few issue he has with Dalglish in order to reach a count of ten.
Quite frankly, unless he had twice as many good reasons he shouldn't have started such an article.
Agreed its a ridiculous article, but I don't really get that comment. You know this season was not about if he could win the carling cup, it was about top 4, the owners themselves said so. So Carling cup doesn't make up for the failure of our goal is what people/the article is saying. No ones priority at the start of the season is the carling cup.
