I put this in another thread, but I believe the subject deserves its own discussion, it is a subject that needs to be recognised.

If we do this, every bloody pundit should be saying, or reminded, that this man (BR) won the league WITHOUT buying it !

The only other manager in my opinion who did this was wenger. I think the man ( BR) deserves his own flag on the kop for such an achievement, and I have not heard any pundit on any show acknowledge thus.

It will be a phenomenal achievement if he does it, and all us fans of LFC should make it our business to work that fact into every conversation we have about this season.

He has spent money. And wasted some of it. Its his coaching which should be praised.

Borini
Alberto
Aspas
Allen (harsh)
Llori

These haven't justified the price tags. Over 45mil spent in them.

it also is not because:

the fa have fixed it because of the hillsborough anniversary (The ShedEnd)

We have been really lucky with injuries while others have been terribly unlucky(Blue Moon)

Refereeing decisions

performance enhancing drugs (REdCafe Forum)

We will have just won the league because we won more games. The only luck we had is Rodgers finding the right formula in time. When you have a working system you make your own luck after that.

That said (and not to change topic) no matter what happens we have a monstrous amount of work today to solidify this squad. We need depth and we also have to sort out our defence.

He's also brought money in selling players though. And even if his net spend was £45m, it'd still be nothing compared to what City and Chelsea have spent. Even united have spent way more than that recently

Very true Terryc. And for those that say money has been wasted to be honest you can only say that when a player comes into the side and does not perform.

He is one of two coaches in the top 7 who has put his faith in young players coming through. The other is Martinez. However unlike Martinez he has also had to deal with a world class player and a legend and how to manage those players and to develop a game that neither knew they had in them.

There are more to come through from the under 21's and in a fair number of cases these guys are ahead of your average £15m to £20m player because they fully understand what is needed.

His net spent is closer to 70m than 45m, nowhere near City and probably Chelsea though.

haven't got the energy for this discussion at the moment... the only questions on my mind are 'Will We?' and if so, 'When?' grin

Illori was been amazing, Enrique never really had chance to shine same with Aspas. Allen is a good squad player and Borini could end up being a Liverpool legend for that pen last week! :P
