wormy Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Think it all rests on Kenny. If he goes, will the new manager keep the team spirit? If he stays, is their form all just the hype of King Kenny and will that roll over to next season? If he stays, can see it not being hype and they'll be back seriously challenging fairly soon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtype Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 As I mentioned previously, Liverpool have no squad depth at all and that is going to come back to bite them in the ass if they're trying to sustain a title challenge over the course of an entire season. What is their plan B if Suarez gets injured? David N'Gog? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punk77 Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 As if ourselves and Liverpool will be challenging each other next season ffs. They have the best strike force in the league now, and with the momentum they have + a few other signings they'll easily be top 4 challengers next season. On the paper they have a good strike force..But they've just scored in one match each. That doesn't make them PL's best strike force, yet. As I've said, Suarez had a reputation of only scoring against the weakest team when he was Holland..And Carroll is still young..So many things can go bad..or good. Time will show.

Punk77 Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Yet Suarez was the best player on the park against Man Utd... That's right. Man U had both Ferdinand and Vidic out that day. The replacements were Brown and Smalling. It's obvious that this made Suarez job much more easier. . Brown is rubbish so Evra was the only one left with routine in their defense. That hurts when you're up against such a physical team like Lpool Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is their plan B if Suarez gets injured? David N'Gog? Agreed. They have some very good players, but man some of them are pure rubbish too.. Lucas, Skrtel, Kuyt, Johnson,Poulsen etc.. Johnson is good in attack but rubbish in defense, Skrtel is decent but not good enough if you want silverware, same goes for Carragher. Remember that those players they buy got to fit in to the team, culture etc. Imo we are almost as good as them already. If they fail in the transfer market and we don't, we'll take them next year.

Punk77 Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Fuck me, you have no confidence in your own team at all.. I honestly believe that Enrique (obviously), Colo, Tiote, HBA, Ireland and Barton could go straight into the Lpool team right now. That's SIX players.. 4/5 reinforcement and we're there..

SteveMc Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 The point stands though that we have the nucleus of something decent (even better whe Carroll was here) and ought to be looking to build aand consolidate rather than flog more of the family silver.

Punk77 Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 We are not almost as good as them. We could have easily have been in their place. But each time we've had the possibility to make a push we've been destroyed by injuries or suspensions They've been incredible lucky in some matches (Stoke, Sland ) Met teams that are totally out of form (Chelsea) or Man U when they had their central defense line out. That suited a defensive oriented team like Lpool perfectly. Will be exiting to watch them now though with many key players out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AfroP Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Imo we are almost as good as them already. is that why they are 9 points ahead of us even after a very bad start to the season? and are more than likely going to finish a lot higher than us in the league? If Pardew has denied the claims that Enrique is away to the scouse in the summer it means that, Enrique is away in the summer. case closed, move on, start looking for a replacement now.

Punk77 Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Afrop: That could easily have been the case yes. Sometimes injuries on KEY players that are non-replaceable could destroy a season completely. In fact, that could be the sole difference between two teams positions. What would have happened with Lpool if Mereles was ruled out for the rest of the season just after he signed? He alone sealed 9 points in matches where they played rubbish. We without injury on HBA and Lpool with a long time injury on Mereles and our positions could have been switched.

Everyone meets teams that are out of form throughout the season, its where you are at the end that counts. Liverpool have a far superior front line that we do and it will take a lot of money to match it. I agree that with a few quality additions in the summer, we can reach the top 10 next season, but as it stands, we are not nearly as good as Liverpool.

Dr.Spaceman Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Same rule applies to us though. I bet if Man Utd had 25 injured players we'd be as good as them too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colocho Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 TalkSport saying AC Milan are close to an £11 million deal for him now I know it's £4 million less but if he had to go I'd take that one. Nee chance I want to see him pulling on the dippers strip next season. They are supposed to be close to signing Taiwo on a free, can't see both going. No chance both will go there. Enrique is a much better player than Taye Taiwo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
