Here a stat for you kenny has the best away record than any Liverpool manager. winning 50% of his games.
Guess who was 2nd.....................Rafa with 41%
Houllier was 3rd with 40%.

Like you really thought im going to tone down my language for a pr1ck like you. wankerr

Oh look at that stat emp. Where is your mate Hodgson

Did Roy do anything to improve on it, well I guess not

Was Rafa for the last two years of his career, absoulutely not. Owners were snobs

No as he kept saying he had inherited rafa's team. But everyone says rafa inherited Houllier's team in his first season and got 5th in the league a Carling cup final and won an European Cup.
To a point I agree Roy wasn't give enough time to see if he could turn it around but we were failing so bad and as you say free falling, we were never in this position at this time of the year under Rafa in all fairness. He shoudln't complain he had players like Gerrard,Reina,Torres,Merieles,Agger in his team which are a hell of a lot better than Fulham's Simon Davies, Bobby Zamora Zoltan Gera to name a few.

Hodgson is round at fergies having dinner and discussing tactics for tmrw. 'you know,sir great one, we would have got away with it if it weren't for those pesky fans'

Yes but those players you have just mentioned were not the good Liverpool players which Hodgson inherited were they. Roy Hodgson ended up getting a half ar*ed Gerrard, injured all season Agger, Reina for me has been poor to a disgrace for nearly all this season which is unlike him, Meireles is still finding his feet and Torres is a waster who turns in performances which gets managers the sack. So you see the Liverpool players Hodgson inherited are not the same Liverpool players from past seasons so it's unfair to say Hodgson could of done better with them.

Ahem. Rafa built the Academy. 'nuff sed.

As for Kenny and formations, he'll almost certainly play 4-5-1. Is Meireles fit enough to play 90 minutes? That would be my only worry. Is Aurelio fit?

------------Reina
-Kelly-Skrtel-Agger-Aurelio
----Meireles---Lucas-------
-Maxi-----Gerrard-----Cole
-------------Torres

And I would love to see someone like Ecclestone or Pacheco come off the bench and score the winner. How we've missed having a substitute score a goal!

Did we call for his head when Roy was 1:1:1 after our first 3 games? No, we didn't. Mainly we started calling for his head after we lost at Everton having played "the best football under [Hodgson's] charge". At that stage we were W1 D3 L4. How any self-respecting manager can claim to be "satisfied" with such results is beyond me. To recap, he then went unbeaten for 4 games, and some of the calls for the sack subsided - maybe it was just because we'd had a really tough start to the season. Sadly he continued to have us lose at regular intervals thereafter, and disgraced himself with the loss to Wolves and with his idiotic ranting at the fans.

We should have listened to him though. He said to judge him after 10 EPL games.

First 10: W3 D3 L4 (Points 12)
Second 10: W4 D1 L5 (Points 13)

Despite the fact that the second ten games were significantly easier than the first he managed to improve by only 1 point. If after 6 months your team is still playing like a bunch of strangers, and you aren't sure where to play Gerrard and Meireles, then either you're a f*cking idiot or you're not in control of the team; you deserve the sack in either case because you're clearly not fit to wear the shirt.

But he's gone now, and everyone except you is relieved.

The ball is in Kenny's court, and I expect him to crack the whip. Whether he can get better performances out of this bunch remains to be seen. Were I you Reclaim I'd give him 10 EPL games. That at least is fair. But you've not given him 10 seconds, and there isn't a single fan here who did that with Roy.
