Happy New Year to you all
I hope 2013 will be the turning point for Liverpool and their fortunes
The transfer window is open and Sturridge is in , hope Rodgers can bring in another player or two to boost the squad .
It is time to put things right , the team can play well and can win games convincingly , the players need to push hard so a top 4 finish is possible
There is certainly alot to play for , the Europa , FA Cup and the top 4 finish , its gonna be tough with Spurs and Chelsea holding positions 3 and 4 but it can be done
As liverpool supporters around the world we all have been patient and lived on hope that the glory days will return
It is time for the club to get up there where we belong , it is time for us to knock Man Utd off their perch now
A top 4 finish this year , top 2 next year and then the title
Come on Reds !!!

Come on Reds !!! We keep saying that but the club offers disappointment after disappointment from performances, to terrible signings, bad management etc. I predict an indifferent year and we will probably finish somewhere around 10th. Not expecting anything.
Back to Back World Champions baby!

Not expecting anything. Anything above or below that would indeed be a surprise. Sadly, the average LFC fan has been brainwashed into having such low expectations to the extent that they now think BR is doing well.

expecting nothing. you could have been talking about the beginning of the last 3years.
as for the average fan quote. I hope your wrong mate and it's just a minority. this is nowhere near good enough and if results have not picked up especially at home then by end of February BR should be under more pressure than he is now
dont be an hater, take the banter!

HALF of LFC fans were happy with rodgers despite him doing worse than our last manager, who got sacked for not doing well enough!!!!

Love the optimisim but its misplaced and dangerously so. Liverpool have not a hope in hell of knocking man utd off their perch. We need to face up to reality poor owners are destroying this club from moores to gillet and hicks to john henry. none of them have the finances and are trying for sucesss without risk to themselves it wont work. We have a slim chance of 4th if others fail and we overperform but even if we do without investment it will be a one off rather like everton a few years ago.

Rodgers hasn't spent the money that Dalglish did and in my opinion that ultimately cost him his job!
I'm not defending BR because we haven't been good enough this year!

The only way we even have a chance of grabbing 4th spot is if the wheels fall of Spurs and (to a slightly lesser extent) Arsenal in 2013, and if we make some great signings and things really click for the team.
Spurs look head and shoulders above us at the moment, and look stronger every week. Arsenal are inconsisent but they still look better than we do. I think we'll finish 7th this season, with 6th a possibility if we can oust Everton, but realistically, I can't see us finishing any higher than 6th - it's a possibility yes, but very unlikely, imo.
A 6th or 7th place finish would be an improvement on last season's 8th place finish, and would be something to build on if money is made available for investment in the squad come the summer time.
No reason why we can't have a good run in the FA Cup and Europa League. BR has been criticised by some for not taking the cups seriously enough. Hopefully we'll see stronger lineups in them from this point forward.

I'm at an all time optimistic-low. We need investment to catch up with the likes of Spurs and Arsenal, forget about the top 3. If Spurs are trying to sign Sneijder and we're trying to sign Ince, we can forget it until these owners are gone. I hope Sturridge does well, but it doesn't seem long ago we were competing with Chelski, now we're happy with their cast-offs?
Sahin too - there we have a class player but Rodgers prefers Joe Allen and Shelvey, even Henderson on occasion. Now we're trying to send him back to save a few million? I'm trying not to criticise BR, but you have to wonder sometimes.

I apppreciate all the comments but I think the owners had to hold back with funds just to balance the books for now .
I think Rodgers will buy in this transfer window and we should see a good surge in the second half of the season
I will be proved wrong in the next 3 games , Sunderland , the FA Cup tie and Man Utd at Old Trafford , if we can win all these games we go on to 4th place
The club is nothing without its fans so we need to believe
