At least research your points before you say them and back them up with facts................. Oh Dear, he we go. Another one. You really do need to learn the difference between a fact and an opinion, try google. It has a tendency to help most of the time. Anyway, deciphering your post, the only facts I see you have made is 1) Sterling has had an England cap. Yup, correct. Not really a measure of his performance at club level but if you think it is then 'High Five', a big wink of the eye and a thumbs up to you ! 2)You have posted a load of clubs with figures next to them and said there is a pattern. Hmmmmm, well I've stared and stared at them and I cant see a dinosaur. Are your sure there's a pattern? As for you opinions, I don't agree with them but as long as you do that's all that matters.. right? Oh, here's a fact for you.... In the last 5 seasons, it appears that Stoke and Villa have had a higher NET spend on their squad that Liverpool had.

Really? I don't remember him playing much before Rodgers came in. And as the little boy can't keep himself out of trouble off the pitch, what chance does Rodgers or anyone have of getting him to make it?
Oh come on. He's not half the player he was this time last season. You can blame the 17 year old if you want but for me that just lets BR off the hook. I remember watching one of them things on sky about Fergie and Giggs said that when he was young, Fergie was waiting for him at at his house when he came home from a night out and read him the riot act. Just my opinion (not a fact) but just don't think that BR has got that in him. BR is at the helm of one of the biggest clubs in the world and his only credentials are that he brought Swansea into the Premiership. Not exactly a resounding CV is it?

1) If Sterling didn't get an English cap on the basis of his club form, then why did he?
2)The facts show that all the new incoming managers are doing worse than their predecessor
Aston Villa net spend 40.7mil
Stoke net spend 72.4mil
Liverpool net spend 77.65mil
I assume your maths isn't too good or you're deliberately making up facts?
I didn't bother to add links to points totals because they're common knowledge and easy to find, similar to the transfer league website

Rafa was a good manager, had his faults, but led us to a 5th champions league trophy, and 2nd in the league. Need to stop living in the past though. BR has potential as a manager. I'd rate him higher than any of the other relatively young managers in the league. He will grow, and the longer he is with us, he will develop a presence. The thing we should be looking for is progress, whether it is immediate or gradual steady progress. A better league position year on year, for one, is good progress, the identification and resolution of key things and areas are another, we are yet to see one of these things, but we have seen it in the other. We needed a striker, someone who could finish, score goals and take some of the burden off suarez. We got that in Sturridge. We needed creativity in midfield and we got that with coutinho. We needed defensive cover, we have more than got that with sakho, agger, skrtel, Toure and Llori. We got rid of high earners who werent pulling their weight. The next window I expect 3 key areas to be addressed. Defensive Midfield Position as we really need some steel there, a Left sided attacking player, and a AM in the mold of coutinho to provide cover. Then, we will be laughing. Not being funny but this is Liverpool FC. We should have have a proven Manager at the club, not a trainee!!

You just can't help yourself can you. I even give you a link to click. Remember, I was talking about the last 5 seasons... Ok, I'll do it for you but I draw the line at botty wiping. Here we go.. Straight from the link I gave you Net Spend (Last 5 Seasons) Stoke City £91,175,000 Aston Villa £86,000,000 Liverpool £83,900,000 http://www.transferleague.co.uk/league-tables/transfer-league-table-last-five-seasons.html

For much the same reason that Walcott was taken to the world cup. To gain experience with the 1st team as he is a very bright future prospect.

The real question is what are Moyes's credentials for taking over at Man U........ No doubt a question being asked on many a Man U forum.
