The Liverpool Thread

[Newcastle Fan]

How many steps backwards have Enrique taken since he left us? Since January he's been p*ss poor.

 

If he continues on like this, he's never going to get into the Spain squad. It's as simple as that.

 

He's never going to get there anyway, Spain have a lot of players that can play in his position, and a lot of young ones coming through who are better.

 

 

 

 

 

Casillas, Valdes, Reina, De Gea, Asenjo

That's the dumbest god damn...

[Mole_Toonfan]

tbf to Enrique if you got raped by a skillful frenchman that you were forced to go in goal to get away from him..... you would find it hard to recover too....

Not really, you lose a final, then your best players decide to leave for a better club and become winners. Just ask macherano, Alonso and now Torres.

@RAWK_Meltdown is incredible.

[Guest BooBoo]

Dalglish simply has to resign.

 

His tenure has been an unmitigated disaster. If we'd been up against that rabble today we would have humiliated them. A truly dreadful side and they were fortunate they only were up against a feeble Chelsea side.

Regardless of what happens in these last two games it's been a remarkable season.

CL or EL football will be a great experience for all concerned, fans, club, players etc and certainly feels like progress in the right direction.

However, for me, I just want to win something, . . . . . .  anything.

Quickest route to that is a Cup.

This current squad is capable of Silverware, imho, and that's what I desire more than anything else.

Swanning around Europe will be a absolute blast, no doubt about it, but we're not going to win anything there.

 

Leicester have won the League Cup three times ffs.

Luton Town, Oxford United & Swindon have all raised that trophy above their respective heads once since it's inception.

 

Football is all about winning things. That's what marks you out from the herd, Silverware. Simple as.

[themanupstairs]

we coulda won this.... silver lining, Carroll's performance. If he continues in this vein, will be a revelation come next season

 

Revelation?

 

35 million pound revelation? what a bunch of tossers they are (for the most part). Rather enjoying reading through their post match thread. "Kenny" only partly to blame

[Guest BlacknWhiteArmy]

Kenny will be binned in a few weeks' time, I think.

do you get it now ? cups are nice, but they aren;t proof you are any good, good teams don't go down the pan like those you've listed.

 

to me football is about seeing who's the best at it, cups don't come anywhere near proving this. what does winning a knock out cup prove ?

I think he'll walk.

Cups are much more strongly connected to the sense of personal achievement, satisfying a desire to win. A league much more decisively shows who is the better team over the course of a season, but a cup is more accessible. It is tangible, it is representation of a team's success. Through the history of the cups, it delivers that feeling of accomplishment that you were the best in the competition; something you can't get from someone finishing 4th vs someone finishing 8th.

so do i, but not until they have a replacement. a search which i guess is already underway.

deep down thoguh you know you've won nothing of worth unless you can say you were the best.

But you were the best. You were the best in the competition, outlasting everyone you've come up against.

 

The league more decisively shows superiority, but 'being the best' is exactly why people celebrate cup successes. Your team succeeded where every single other team failed.

If he walks they will spin it into "maybe it wasnt working out, the king has put the clubs need over his own"

it's a very narrow competition then. may aswell have a trophy for who scores the most in the first 4 weeks of the season. it's a nice diversion but means and proves nothing.

They're proof positive you're the best team in that competition surely??? Good teams/squads come and go, but my point was that there are some pretty lowly clubs out there that have mustered a Cup win, done the Wembley thing, Open top bus tour around the town etc and for me, it's disappointing that we haven't managed it in my lifetime (I'm 37)

 

Seriously, are you telling me you weren't watching the FA Cup final today thinking "I wish we were there"

 

I know I was.

no, i've been to two cup finals and thought at kick off "is this it ? if we win are we a great team (no!), will i celebrate and get hammered ?(yes!), will winning the cup aid us as a team more so than getting into the champs league....NO!"

[MW]

Maybe you'd feel different if we had won

[madras]

Maybe you'd feel different if we had won

like i said, thaqt was at kick off. i'm more excited and nervous about todays game than i was about either cup final.

[MW]

Fair play. I just want to experience winning a cup final. Celebrations will be wild

[madras]

oh they would be and i'd celebrate like mad.
