TRon Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Liverpool have been hiring foreign managers for the last few years now. With their lack of recent success surely they are in the best place to hire a young English manager with potential and make a stand. Or even an experienced English manager. Whatever happened to the Anfied boot room? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 Wasn't Roy Evans a boot room product too? So not Souness. Houllier was the one to close it, I think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He brought in Phil Thompson, and Rafa Sammy Lee, and with that being what was left of the Boot Room, there's your reason why it closed, too. Souness is the one who fucked it all up, of course. Practically destroyed a dynasty. Like the fucking Scorpion King from the Mummy, him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Treks Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 Rafa going would be perfect for Juve n Hicks/Gillett as Juve will have to fork out the compensation. I can't see anything materializing tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mowen Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 50/50 jest/truth. I think the criticism on him is way OTT personally. They've been poor this season and his transfer record is very poor overall (although Torres is one of the best signings in the last 5 years) but Liverpool have never been a title threat in my or your lifetime really and he nearly got it going last year.

1878 Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 They've still never been a title threat at the end of the day though. And all on a net spend bigger than any other manager since he came here. Long live the rafalution. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but they haven't been for so long I'd give him a bit of credit for at least getting them close. Torres is the best player I've ever seen play for them too. He does seem a bit crackers with his transfers to say the least though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Sammy Lee's stint at Bolton was one of the scariest managerial tenures I have ever witnessed. I'm pretty sure he could relegate Manchester United. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
