These "net spend" arguments are so tedious, but I feel the need to respond here.
If you buy a new car for £10,000 and later sell your house for £100,000, you don't say that you haven't spent any money; you don't say that you have a +£90,000 net spend on cars this year. Your car and your house are completely separate investments.
If your job pays £40,000 annually and you spend £500 on beer, you don't say that you have a +£39,500 net spend on beer this year.
It is the same with football players. You don't say "We made a £15 million profit on Andy Carroll because we sold Fernando Torres." Carroll and Torres are entirely separate "investments." We made a £25 million profit on Torres, some of which was spent on Carroll. The other £10 million did NOT come from the sale of Babel. We actually took a small loss (of about £4 million) on Babel. We will not realize any profit on Carroll unless we sell him for £35,000,000.01. Which will never happen, because he is awful.
I'm sorry for being so pedantic, but I wouldn't have to be if people were able to understand these simple concepts. Totally agree, It just gets right on my nerves when fans say we only spent 40m this summer.
Back to Back World Champions baby!

the liverpool job is still a big job but its a poison challis job after the millions wasted and the rebuilding job that will need to happen again in the summer just to get into the top 6 , its hurts so much to see dalglish like this and to see our club so bad , but the league form has been like this all season since suarez missed a peno against sunderland as sign of things to come , can score goal , players looking lost no real tactical nous from the manager , it is pound for pound the worst team i have seen sad very sad . I get what you're saying but I don't see the point in ggetting rid before the end of the season, the man IS a legend, lets give him the respect he deserves and hope he has the grace to step down with dignity. Give him chance because he is a legend???? Oh no another meaningless talk. So we should wait till he destroys our team just because he was once a legend??? Please get real. Kenny should have been fired as in last week. He is no good and has no accumen!!! Wasteful coach Such a disgrace!!!

Just wait and see... no sense beating your head against the wall all the time wait and see what??? If Kenny claims he loves Liverpool he should do what majority of the fans are calling for!!! Her should simply vacate his position and go home and retire!!!!! He is a big liability to the club. He should put aside his pride for the sake of the club. We have had enough of him!!!! What a wasteful coach. The body language of both the player and technical team yesterday was aweful!!!! The worse in 59 years. Shame on Kenny that he is still at office!!!

How do you know what the majority are calling for? Just because the fans that can be heard most at the moment are those that are losing their heads and screaming like banshees doesn't necessarily mean they're the majority. I rather suspect that there's a silent majority that are obviously very disappointed, may have concluded that Kenny should go at the end of the season but are probably thinking that he should stay for now and hoping that he gets some very good results over the next few weeks.

He's right, whether you admit or not. Apart from 3 or 4 people on this forum I haven't come across anyone in the last month or so that thinks he deserves to stay any longer.

We will lose the chance we have of a cup win if we don't sack Dalglish. He should have gone last week, he has to go now. its so sad i knew this would happen with dalglish he should never have been given the job full time , he steadied the ship and the club then should have moved on , but after ovewr 100 million spent , but i will call p[eople liars if they say dalglish is better than hodgson NO CHANCE this is the worst in my 35 years sad so sad   what a drama queen! your make up is gonna run if you keep crying like this. worst in 35yrs, my backside. Houllier, Souness and Hodgson all had worst teams. Also whats all this 100mil lark? we have spent 40mil. If you spend 300mil on players but sell 600mil is it still a 300mil spend? NO stop being a big girl and get behind the team I'm going to attempt not to be patronising or disrespectful but you have really shown yourself up big time. I am not gonna go into the logistics of how we are in fact on our worst run in 50 years, because I agree our football is much better than more recent times. But you have blatantly lied in your post about an important matter. You yourself used the word SPENT, not INVESTED, SPENT. Therefore net spend/how much was invested is 100% nothing to do with the context of the sentence. If I go to a carboot sale sell some stuff for 20 quid, then go shopping and SPEND 100, if someone asks me how much I SPENT today, I SPENT 100. My son can work out the difference and he isn't 10 yet. There are some conversations where the INVESTMENT is the important figure, which just falls short of 40 million, but it isn't always the important figure! Kenny Dalglish has SPENT over 100 million pounds sterling. That is indisputable FACT. He has spent 100 million pounds sterling very poorly, that is opinion open for debate. But do not lie, Kenny has SPENT over 100 mill, end of.

Keep on hoping against hope!!!! By the time you wake up to reality it may be too late for any redemption. If you still dont realise how bad the current situation is. Just look at the behaviour of Reina and Carrol yesterday and that alone should tell you that we are in CRISIS!!!!! Player indiscipline creeps in immediately the players lose confidence in the coach. I doubt very much if the situation will change for the better with Kenny at the helm. We have not reached our lowest ebb yet but we are getting there. The best option for Liverpool at the moment is to SACK KENNY!!!!! that is if he refuse to step down immediately. The physical presence of kenny alone is becoming an eye sore to the playing body!!! We are in shambles and action should be taken to alleviate the situation. Waiting till the end of the season is not the way to go. Action now!!!!! Save Liverpool!!!
