ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC"

[catcherintherye]

i really disagree with that statement. west ham at full strength is probably better as well. palace have a lot of solid good players and cabaye is better than anything that they have on their books. Stoke's players like shawcross, bojan, shaqiri and affelay are defeinitely better than liverpool's equivalents. their delusion is what restricts them a lot.

They are slowly starting to realise that they buy flavour of the month players from average teams. Once they got to Liverpool and leave their familiar surroundings they resort back to their natural ability.

Benteke is a lad who's never scored 15+ league goals in consecutive seasons. Lallana is no better than Tadic (form Southampton). Lovren wouldn't get into Southamptons team. Can is too inconsistent. Lucas has always been a very poor mans Mascherano/Alonso.

Benitez paid big money but for very good players. He was well and truly "ahead of the trend" in getting them though. They use numbers to recruit now, and the problem with that, is that the players has already displayed the skills required and is probably approaching their peek. A knowledge of numbers will never be able to replace a knack of being able to see a good player. Take Coleman, had we have waited two years to get 2 years worth of data on him, he'd have got us probably 200 times more. Sometimes you just have to take a punt based on instinct.

The crux of it for them now though is they have a committee full of baseball enthusiasts who couldn't pick a player to save their life.

not sure of sakho is rubbish or just wasnt fit and rushed back too quickly, anyway their recent performances have been alot worse than ours..and they are still ahead of us lol

 

[PhilM]

Who's a what now??

I know they're few and far between but there are the odd few out there.

Less and less.

......telling that Origi was preferred to Benteke. Suggests he might not be a favourite of the new manager. Benteke was strongly linked with Chelsea and I wonder if he could be a surprise mover in January.

 

[Toffeelover]

I think the truth has now dawned on Klippty Klop. He has a rubbish squad.

Even when he's fit he runs like he's got bin lids on his feet.

I said a few games ago Eggs even more telling than that was that little no mark Firminho getting picked instead of Benteke. Klopp would rather have 3 attacking midfielders upfront than a natural striker so that tells me all I need to know about what he thinks about Benteke. Wouldn't be the least surprised to see him moved out in Jan for a fee of around 16-18m if someone is willing to lump that on him.

They don't even need any new player. Doesn't everyone remember Jamie Redknapp only a few weeks ago after the city game frothing at the mouth saying "look at the transformation already due to Klopp, this team are sensational and the sky's the limit for this squad now".

Tit.

Let's not forget though, when all's said and done, at the end of the day, when the mist has cleared, Red(sh1te)napp is still a [Poor language removed].

You can actually hire the tit out as well for corporate events. I think I might just save up, book him for an event in a dark room where it's just him and me and verbally abuse the rat for a couple of hours. If he's anything like his dad he will take it on the chin knowing full well he's getting money out of it.

Same as his mar then.

Probably, as long as you chuck him an extra few hundred quid in a brown envelope he won't mind prof. Next time they are on Sky and they get webbed ala Watford let's hear him change his tune the rat. Even yesterday Barnes and Souness saying they will win "but first they have to earn the right to play there football". What football is that then? Run after the footy like a gang of 6 year olds, lob it forward as quick as possible and hope for the best.

They are shyte and it winds me up that we aren't about 15 points above them to give me even more material to wind the scruffy beauts up.
