Fantastic article. If only more of the media was like that.

We don't need unproven managers like Klopp or Coyle. We need managers that are proven at the top level of football.

In fairness, Klopp is doing wonders at Dortmund - playing some beautiful stuff as well, and he's brought in a few players himself that have torn the league apart. Might not be he most experienced, but he's the better of a lot of people we could get.

Could be just a one season man though. Would rather we didn't take the risk with managers like that and went for experience or one with at least a couple of seasons fighting at the top level under their belt. If we don't aim for managers like that then we will be stuck in mid table for a long time.

Oh yeah, I agree with what your saying. Just think Klopp deserves a bit more credit for his abilities than what you're giving him. He's in the 'Wenger mould' a few reports have suggested.

Deserves credit yeah but not enough to warrant him being linked with a job like ours.

Probably just media bollocks anyway. Picking out managers that are overachieving with average sides. Hodgson mark II if yer like.

Yeah, true. He wouldn't join us anyway, he'll be at Dortmund for a while.

They have some quality player called Sahin or something like that, apparently people are raving about him

Been a legend on both FM and Fifa for years

Have u never bought him on FIFA?

I was looking round some FM sites, and there is a lad offering to create databases, so I asked him if he could make an all-time LFC team.
I said I would get back to him on which players I would like to be in the team, if any of you play it, who do you want to be in it?

I have. He's quality.

Ray Clemence

Phil Neal - Alan Hansen - Jamie Carragher - Alan Kennedy

Billy Liddel - Steven Gerrard - Graeme Souness - John Barnes

Ian Rush - Kenny Dalglish

Replace Carra with Phil Thompson then you a quality team there

Pepe Reina - "I'm tired of rumours linking me with many teams in England and abroad," he told the Daily Star.
"I am a man of my word and commitment. I will honour my contract with Liverpool. Stories of these offers are not true. I have not spoken to anyone - ever - and I am 100 per cent a Liverpool player."

Legend

Liar, Fergie paid him to say that so we get interest off him then he's replacing VDS.

Could be just a one season man though. Would rather we didn't take the risk with managers like that and went for experience or one with at least a couple of seasons fighting at the top level under their belt.

Who do you have in mind?

Would u say that Pepe was our best goalkeeper ever? Hes broken loads of records with us

Cameron_LFC wrote:Would u say that Pepe was our best goalkeeper ever? Hes broken loads of records with us

Yes. Without a shadow of a doubt.

He's broken all those records with an average Liverpool bar one season out of 5/6.

The other goalkeepers made their records whilst playing for the best Liverpool side ever, the Liverpool who were winning everything.

Which makes Pepe's achievements even more spectacular.

Has to be..

I'm pretty excited now. I really really like N'Zogbia, underrated imo.

I hope not.

Andy Carroll hopefully.

Funny thing is, neither of them are playing.

N'Zogbia and Carroll are both not in the squad today, lol. Who can it be?

Dan wrote:I hope not.

Maybe they went their with the intention of watching either of them, and thought they might as well enjoy the game.

Roberto Martinez?
