I think the two yanks will be here for a while and I for one don't see a problem with that, now that Gillett has started selling up his own things in America it's all coming down to Liverpool to make the money and as someone said earlier that to make the money we have to win trophies. Hicks and Gillett have just had some teething problems thats all and if I remember rightly when the Glazers took the PL by storm half of Manchester hated them.

hope you're right Steve - the Club is in need of settled times so let see if the Laural and Hardy can get their acts together and concentrate more on football!

hicks is also selling everything else - if they are going to put all their eggs in liverpool's basket then it has to make a return for them which means we have to win trophies!

Which means they have to strengthen the squad with who Rafa wants.

With football teams, success means profit and to get success you need good players. West Brom didn't spend any money and do you consider them successful? They will have to spend to make money in this repsect.

But reality is that if you want to bring in big money there are only a few ways of doing this. Crowds - which we have no problem with, Sponsorship - which we are currently trying to get more out of Carlsberg, and winning competitions - which you can only do with a good team.

the only way they will make a decent return is to win things - anything else will mean less money than the loans cost
