A one off and one which won't happen in the modern game any more.

He got you into the Champions League and competing for the league at one stage! The big trophies are the league and Champions league, then FA Cup then the other ones.

And sadly this season we are light years behind with regards to the PS and have zero chance of qualifying for the CL.

Actually howard wilkinson was doing something similar with Leeds at around same time albeit with a promotion thrown in for good measure. Modern game pffft what is that, a game where spoilt billionaires throw toys out of prams and sack people after not winning the league cup for a season, that's not how dynasties are built. Real fans should know better.

Re: Football Season 2014/15
Of course that how dynasties are not built TD but we are in the reality of the modern game where supporters pay of awful lot of money to follow their teams and see players getting extremely well paid and thus if success does not arrive they expect the managers head on a platter at the end of the day if results don't go their way as we saw with DM last season.

Last year you were challenging for it and this year you've lost your best player. Far too harsh on Rodgers.

Maybe l am being too harsh but this season especially earlier on and of late have been bitterly disappointing to say the least.

£16 million wasted utterly in my opinion.

And Lovren, and Markovic ...
He's essentially wasted the Suarez money, which is criminal.
I'm inclined to agree with Denphone, Rodgers has not done a good job at Liverpool and finishing in the top two off the back of a world class player and a very good striker while the rest of the team shipped goals for fun shouldn't be allowed to mask that fact. They do need to get rid.
They are a horrible football club though, so in the meantime we can all stand back and laugh.

Re: Football Season 2014/15
Can't understand why he was allowed to play in the meantime though given the seriousness of this allegation.

Re: Football Season 2014/15
Staggering in my opinion but until charged most clubs will do nothing.
