Apparently that would make us deluded.

I personally dont see any reason why we cant have a good go at it.

Though picking up a proven finisher in January would help immensley.

Yes it would and Suso and Sterling are developing into top players. It takes time for a new manager to get it right and there is no reason to suppose Rodgers won't. We have one of the smallest squads in the prem right now and with quality reinforcements I would not rule anything out yet except the title.

That doesnt make us deluded before you say it does.

I think that declaring the season a success because we won the cup that has had more names than some posters on here is a little sad.

Ater we won it last year it gave the club a great lift, we went on a run that would have embarressed the relegated teams

Wht shouldn't we aim for the Top 4, maybe not this season but in the future?
we are not a top four club simple as, neither are Newcastle, Spurs, Everton, Stoke Fulham or West Brom, the top four operate on a totaly different scale than orselves and those teams I have mentioned, you may get an odd glimmer like Spurs did last season but what you have to remember was Spurs were absolutely amazing last season, really punched above there weight yet they only got into the top four because Chelsea and Arsenal had probably there worst seasons in about 10 years, it's simply not going to happen like that again for probably another 10 years, even then we are not in any position to capitalise as we are not even 5th, 6th or 7th best team in the country at present nor look like we will get any better in the near future with these owners.

At times its hard to remain enthusiastic on here.

You would think we were on the verge oF relegation listening to some.

I'm with you Stan, aim as high as we can and see where it takes us.

I think we have the shell oF a very very good team and we are in a much better position than some realise or care to admit.

We have 7 points From our last 9 and we thumped Norwich who beat Arsenal this weekend.

Are gooner Fans calling For Wengers head? I doubt it.

Joecool makes valid points but we are a big club even now. City, Arsenal or Chelsea don't have our fan base and even now we match them for sponsorship deals. Agreed we have a long way to go and I accept some of Joe's points but we are in no way comparable to Everton or Villa.

Well i dont know if anyone noticed but i got banned for a few days for calling one of them out.. They seem to think that between now and January were gonna pull Neymar, Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Messi etc. out of our asses. Its annoying to say the least. The majority of us know exactly where we stand as a club right now and to be fair were no where near where we should be, but lets not point it out ON EVERY SINGLE THREAD AND EVERY SINGLE POST. A bit of faith would be lovely!

Top 7 and trophy!

Unfortunately, there will be no trophy for us while Brendan Rogers is manager, you will never win any cup competition if your manager refuses to take them seriosly and continualy plays weakend teams. The manager we have values finishing probably 8th ahead of Cup success which I think is very sad and unacceptable, whats even sadder is some Liverpool fans agree with this and defend him, they cant be true Liverpool fans, they just cant be, all Liverpool fans surely want success.


I don't think he disrespects the Cup comps at all! He just needs to manage his players to the best of his ability because the squad is so thin and the top 11 cannot play every game because it would fatigue them and we would end up with more injuries and make the squad thinner than it already is!

By the way, which cup comp are we not in at the moment? I thought we were still in all the ones that we started the season with!!
