KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum The Reality of Our League Position

don't know whether to take offence to that or not..

take it as a compliment, carheeex views are nowhere near mine, i'm out on my own in terms of just how right I am.

regards BR ,pretty football is nice but we have yet to beat anyone of any worth ,the shambles at stoke was a disaster and i can't like any manager that doesn't bother with basic defending at corners. plus his signings have been crap.

we will probably lose all 3 of these away games and be around 13th in feb, thats pure shiite.

Unfortunately the spoilt it stanley by singing for the incompetent Dalglish too...

Abuse? Where?

The way i see it , BR has passed the xmas stage 9pts out of 12,
I'd never judge a manager on performance at stoke, it was ropey after aston villa.
january is like part 2, no no striker excuse either for january.
The real test is on matching the big boys, so far he hasnt done it , but its possible; i notice they were much better off the ball last night, which is essential in EPL
Personally i think he needs 4 points out the next 3 minimum what is it , manure, arsenal and city? or even to give them a shock.. Think its possible dont see how you can predict 13th in february frankly

Telling the forum members that you are supposed to be moderating, that they have no idea what they are talking about isn't exactly good manners and nullifies any authority you have as it makes you a hypocrite. You might want to familiarise yourself with the AUP before posting again.

got Norwich after United, then Arsenal and City

So I can't have an opinion if you don't like it?

I predict we will finish 9th based on the following:

At the half way stage of the season we had 25 points. We have played everyone once so it's a reasonable figure to go by. That gives us a season total of 50 points.

Last season 50 points would have earnt us 10th place
The season before, 50 points would have earnt us 8th place
The season before that 9th or 10th (depending on goal difference)

Therefore an average of the above would give us 9th place, which is worse than our previous manager achieved, and he was sacked for his efforts. The only way that BR can be exempt from massive criticism is if the fans have decided that top 10 "IS" plenty good enough for LFC. If that's the case, the fans should be ashamed of having such low expectations considering we were the number one ranked club in the world a little over 3 years ago.

It seems that the worse we get, the less we expect - the management is successfully wearing some fans down to the stage that they will happily accept absolutely anything. Not me.....a few seasons without CL football, a string of p!ss poor managers, and casual investment from the owners means that we cannot compete with Utd, City, Arsenal, Spurs or Chelsea for a few years yet. BUT we should be the best of the rest at the very least.

kd shouldn't hhave been sacked though, not then,
110m spent on sh1t, thats why br can get tenth and get away with it (but i agree there is a dumbing down operation going on)

i think we'll finish 6th or 7th. the two mancs and chelsea will be top 3. 4th/5th will be between spurs and arsenal. 6th/7th will be between us and everton.

in the overall history of the club i won't be happy with that. but in the context of a club in recovery, 6th would be ok IF (and that's a big if) it's a stepping stone to a challenge for 4th next season (which basically means financial backing for a couple of high quality summer signings).
