It always comes back to the signings. Kenny was given that astronomical £116m to give the team a step change meaning top 4 minimum. Cups mean nothing they are luck and next season we could be out of the FA cup in the third round and be in 8th place in the league. We have not qualified for the europa for the last two seasons by our league placing that is shocking. We are hitting the bar because the player has not struck the ball correct. In one game you can put it down to bad luck but not over a season. There is no way with that set up and players we will get anywhere near 4th next season. No way.
in that case you may want to change your avatar mate :p
i think you have a point about the signings but does it warrant the sacking of kenny? theres still time for the likes of henderson, downing, carroll to improve. the majority of kenny's poor signings still have time on their hands, maybe they can improve in a similar fashion to how lucas has. a big ask yes, but still possible.
i'd like to see us sell charlie adam if i'm honest. i must admit at blackpool he looked a good player and was happy when we signed him. he's proven himself to be generally a poor passer of the ball (from set plays/penalties too) and a very clumsy in defence.
losing a quality player like raul meireles was a big set back for us imo, he was inventive and had an eye for goal. his departure was something the club couldn't really do much about. no player is bigger than lfc imo. if a player doesn't want to be here then i don't think we should stand in there way. shame he left.
its been a crazy season. we have a terrible record especially at home. we've dominated game after game and come away with nothing/1 point when we should have won comfortably and created enough chances to do so.
i think our inability to convert chances has to be addressed in the summer. would you rather the manager be sacked or see him bring in a quality striker and give him the chance to correct his mistakes? i think he deserves another chance but he can't praise the players after every defeat (apart from one away to bolton) and expect the side to perform at their best week in/week out
out: adam, cole, aquilani, kuyt, maxi, aurelio
in: right winger, striker, centre midfielder
would love to see kelly given a game at his natural CB position, maybe theres room for wilson, flanaghan, sterling and robinson to come through aswell. can imagine the younger players to feature more in the europa league this year.
