KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum What's your hunches about Roy and the future?

I think he was right..remember how thread bare our squad was last season.

Lack of investment is why everyone`s expectations are so low now(just look through this thread)and will again probably cost us this season...

Im not expecting much from Roy when every team around us is getting stronger and he is having to scrap around and does not seem sure if his best players are staying(shame on them).
Taveman is bang on with no serious investment how can we compete?

I think... The next couple of weeks will determine how well we do, regarding player sales/purchases and whether Roy does actually get the funds from player sales ( plus the prospect of new owners). But if we keep hold of Stevie and Nando and they start enjoying playing again then theres no reason why we cant get in that top 4 again..

there's no reason at all to make a statement like that.

some of you needs to cheer up a bit. the future of lfc will be bright.

if my feeling come across as a bit strong or severe .it is only through my frustration at what is happening at my club . after all in my humble opinion . what these parasites are doing to my club is nothing short of criminal

Gotta agree with emp first that we will push for atleast top4 also merv u make a valuable statement there. If we start with a win at anfield against arsenal then the belief of the squad will be very high. Personally i think if Roy plays the right players in the right positions and plays the best 11 (eg: Aquilani instead of lucas in the middle) then we will have a great season and finish top 4. I really hope we can get a cup. Either Europa or carling will do. Fa cup is harder to achieve but u never know. Also i think this is the last season or half a season that the top players such as torres and gerrard will remain if we dont improve and get into the top 4 so really there is no choice but to finish top4. Am i being optomistic? maybe but i do believe anything is possible when liverpool fc are playing. YNWA

i think roys boys will bag a cup and top 4 easy
as long as the players believe the same thing
roy look to me like a motivator always looks happy that what we need

1. Joe Cole will sign.
2. Masch will go to Inter.
3. Ever Banega will sign.
4. Arda Turan (said with tears in my eyes almost), will go to Bayern.
5. Steve will stay period, and Nando will stay for another year.
6. A new left back will come in.

We will finish in 4th and justkeep our heads above water finacially.
7. Liverpool will be sold on the cheap to an Arab consortium lead by Prince Faz, which will save our bacon. but only just.

** February will come and we will all wonder whatthe fuss was about when we are signing players like Fabiano and Kaka. *****

Our squad is not that bad, compare it to Uniteds and I believe it`s better.! OK last year was pants but before that we threw away the league and should have gone close the year before that too, we just need a couple new player to replace those that want to leave and give the boys a bit of encouragement.
Not fussed if we keep Stevie or Nando to be fair, we could easily replace them with quality players if they decide to go, in fact Stevie was more of a negative last year so maybe a good thing if he leaves?
Can only see Utd dropping , Spurs and Villa battling for 5th/6th Chelsea at present(before signings) will obviously be weaker due to age of the squad and will City actually blend into a good team? Arsenal stand as good a chance as any with the rest of us that are left but I fancy a top 3 finish.

Roy wasnt my 1st choice but in hindsight I think he's going about his business in the right way "the Liverpool way" some might say. He's not giving too much away and handling the media with great professionalism and class. As for how we do on the pitch its hard to say with the transfer window still open. As long as Purslow doesnt get his way and ship Torres out for £50m+ and he stays fit once hes back we have a chance of top 4 and maybe a cup. With Cole signing I think it shows Roy has some clout and I really hope he does well. Come on ROY.

But Torres is not going to stay fit though is he, his injury record is getting worse and worse season by season, fact. We are fast approaching this coming season a record number of matches for a season and Fernando Torres has already played through the summer and is going to miss the full pre season training through being injured yet again, we need to sell this lame duck to raise serious money for Roy to turn things around.
