I'm actually starting to lean toward the same conclusion Stan. The upper tiers of Liverpool have hardly had a season to write home about.


Government is not reason; it is not eloquent; it is force. Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master.

Commoli was questioned in a trip to Boston"what went wrong and what will you do to change it?" he returns worried and after a few days he got sack'd.

and when Warner came to Liverpool he questions Kenny"what went wrong and what will you do to change it?", why doesn't Maxi play? he plays a game scores 2, get in another game and is dangerous more that the 2 players picked over him, this for them highlights bad judgment from Kenny. if they are truly taking outside advice(i'm sure it doesn't include the Kenny support group of former teammates) they will not hear good things.

I don't think its a case of FSG picking the team. More a case of generally they are not happy and in the early stages of an inquest. So they are going to ask a lot of questions in areas they would not normally do so. Questioning the team selection is clearly probing Dalglish and we can take from that there is a doubt about him. I think there is no question over that. The question is do FSG appoint a new manager with all the attendant risks and contract pay offs or do they continue with Dalglish. I know what I would do but as for them we will wait and see.

What are your views on this, should FSG be interferring in the managers selection and tactical setup? Should FSG have a say in the matter? Should Kenny admit that he has made a mistake by persisting with Downing when Maxi has been getting the much needed goals for us?

Finally, what would your choice be if you were the manager, Maxi or Downing?


I have no problems whatsoever with this. I think the reason they asked is they wanted to know why such inform player was not playing. They know little about football and I think they have the right to ask. I don't think they will go that far and interfere with Dalglish's team tactics.

I think if we win the FA cup (Hopefully) Kenny will not be removed and will be given an extra season and to be fair, I don't think anyone can argue with that winning those two trophies.

Btw I've no problem fsg questioning kenny on anything as that's their job to do the best for the club along as they don't try to force the managers hand.


Absolute lunacy, and one of the daftest comments I have ever read. If my boss ever decides to sack me, shall I tell him that there is no guarantee that my replacement will do any better?!?

People get sacked for missing their targets and/or for underperforming. A calculated risk is then made on their replacement - how do you think kenny got the job in the first place?

His objective was to reach 4th in the league. That target was set for financial purposes. Winning a domestic pot or 2 is a mere drop in the ocean financially and should have no bearing on his future. All kenny has proved is that he is good in the cups and poor in the league. Why would next season be any different if we keep him? Financially we NEED the CL, hence the objective.

Snakeye you seem very sure of what FSG will do. I know what I would do and its not impossible they would conclude the same as me. Kenny retire end of this season. But it could go the other way with them allowing him another season. We know very little about FSG other than what we have gleaned from the Redsox which is a totally different situation. I think deep down FSG feel Kenny was forced on them by fan pressure and ultimately he will go to be replaced by their choice the thing we don't know is when.
