KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum after all the nonsense

I'm not disputing the impact that Suarez quite obviously had on our season. But lets not fall for this tabloid crap that we were a one man team as it's just not true. Just look at the impact Hendo had and how we missed him when suspended at the end of the season. Sturridge, Gerrard, Sterling all had massive seasons too.

+1.

I don't think we were a one man team, but Suarez didn't just give us those goals, assists, the tying up of at least 2 opposition players at any given moment, he also gave us morale and momentum. I truly believe the large dip in form of last year's top performers is largely a result of looking up and seeing players like lallana instead of Suarez, a certain liverpool player mentioned the same thing after the loss of alonso.

I'm in agreement with you red that rodgers has shown some real positives as a manager and has more than earnt is sticking by him during this period of poor results, but (in my opinion of course) your evaluation of his signings are delusional at best. Thus far only Sturridge coutinho and Moreno have looked like solid and astute signings, add lovren as everyone would have expected him to have performed better I can't blame that on him, but the others have nearly all been over priced or stupid signings of mediocrity that have given us quantity over quality. How you can claim lallana has been good baffles me, look at his chances created per minute on the pitch (his main job) it's one of the worst in the league for his position.

I don't know why Kenny is being lambasted on this thread. I said primarily that this was a useless thread and it's causing negativity about club legends

Simple answer to that mate is don't read it or post on it. For the record other than a short spell at Liverpool in the late eighties and Blackburn his career has been an utter failure as a manager were that not so he would be Liverpool manager right now instead of being unceremoniously turfed out by john Henry. Henry famously said he would have sacked him even had he won the FA cup, Sounds like a man who had made up his mind don't you think ?

At least he won something in his first full season. I hope Henry doesn't have to wait too long for the next cup

Well, there must be a reason why they didn't put you in charge, no? Probably all the squad would have committed suicide.

Well it would cut the wage bill Henry would be happy with that

Kenny was a very successfully manager for us and made a lot of the signings that went on to be legends at this club e.g. Suarez, so he should be considered as a success. He's won titles, cups. He was a great tactician, good judge of talent and was great at cranking up the mind games.

You think? Wouldn't it be easier for him to sell everybody and pay himself dividends? Why didn't he not just keep Suarez money but spent more than the proceeds of the sale?
