That's overstating the case - its not as if we've simply been on a slow, upward curve since Souness left. There have been periods of improvement and decline since he went. I'd be interested to know where that information came from.
-
He's much better with the ball at his feet than Platt ever was.
-
Agreed. In the short-term it worked out for us: we got Hysen at a snip (compared to what Pallister cost Utd) and we won the league in his first season, whilst Pallister struggled initially. In the long-run though....
-
That was one of the more interesting ones, as we beat Utd to Hysen and they ended up going after Pallister instead, who obviously ended up being the better bet in the long-run.
-
For me, Dalglish ranks ahead of Fagan. Granted Kenny did let the team start to grow old but you can't argue with signings like McMahon, Aldridge, Barnes and Beardsley. If he'd stuck around at Liverpool, you have to think he'd have gone for some of the players that ended up at Blackburn (Shearer, Batty etc).
-
Eh?
-
I'm not sure I follow that. Last season, he scored a good number of goals in the second half of the season in a struggling side and won his first cap for England. He has, though.
-
As Lee said, we played Blackburn at Anfield the night of the Wiltord game.
-
I think its the game at Spurs you are talking about where we lost 1-0. IIRC that game made it mathematically impossible for us to win the league but I thought it was only after the Wiltord game that we leapfrogged Utd.
-
That's not how it happened. Utd were Arsenal's closest challengers right up until the game at Old Trafford in the final week when Wiltord scored the only goal.
-
Think so. As per last year.
-
I agree - of the two, I'd say that Terry's game is closer to Hyypia's than Carragher's.
-
The one I was talking about was during the first half of 90-91 season. I think its the same game you watched.
-
I think that was the same season McMahon poked Sharpe in both eyes in the league fixture at Goodison.
-
I didn't mean Gerrard making those comments about someone from Chelsea necessarily.
-
It was a nice gesture but an odd one all the same. I wonder what the reaction would have been if Gerrard had said something similar straight after the semi-final against Chelsea last season.
-
If you're going to go to all that trouble, why not spell his name right?
-
John Terry and the free kick for the first goal
fred milne replied to SkippyjonJones 's topic in Liverpool FC
Talking of Cavalho, what's the story with his omission from the Chelsea team? Has he had a bust-up with Mourinho? He may be a snidey, cynical defender but he is a pretty strong one all the same. They tend to look a much tighter outfit defensively with Terry and him at CB and Gallas at LB. -
Utd in the final being p*ss easy?
-
I heard those. The fact that I didn't catch YNWA at the start though is starting to get me worried about my hearing.....
-
I heard "Blue is the colour" quite clearly. If they played YNWA then it must have been on low because I honestly didn't hear it at all.
-
I'm not Morientes' biggest fan either but he put Cisse to shame out there.
-
Hamann is as good cover as we can reasonably expect.
-
It was noticeable that we were subjected to Chelsea's anthem before the game but YNWA was not aired. I guess we have our Mancunian hosts to thank for that.
-
That's a great theory. Something has definitely got to him, though. How else can you explain his behaviour today, which was classless even by his standards - not shaking hands at the end of the game, the jibes about wishing us well for the CL qualifiers but not the final, declaring we had no chance of the title next season. Even Ferguson would never stoop that low.
