Kenny Dalglish Won't Be Delivering the Module: English Premiership 2011-12

it was strachan that got them into the knockout stages not mon

well there was that time their fans got the special award in seville for getting to the uefa cup final but not smashing the whole fucking place up like rangers or atletico madrid fans

oh that's harsh

MON had Celtic unbeaten at home in Europe for absolute yonks and managed to get knocked out of the groups with 9 points.
MON in Europe > Gordon Strachan in Europe imo, though both came up short tactically, particularly away from home.

xpost
We are true masters of occasionally getting pished and not making total cunts of ourselves.

liverpool's current squad is probably no better than newcastle's let alone the top four

a better manager than dalglish might have got another ten points just by correcting the obviously terrible decisions like playing a cm of gerrard and adam, but they'd still be seven points off the top four

can mp4xa perhaps explain why villa fans seem weirdly cocky about paul lambert taking over

i did have a natter with a villa lad the other week who thought the club was all set to build properly again now all of the deadwood's out of contract but uhhhh those accounts looked pretty rotten iirc

oh there's another villa fan on here as well isnt there, i forget who soz

ez snappin

sorry if someone has posted this already:

not sure any lfc fans would sniff at another ten points, tbph.

P sure that lfc's squad is better than newcastle's. V sure, tbh.

There used to be a supermarket chain called MACRO.

and a BBC computer called MICRO.

did my video above get taken down by youtube? it was the steve kean rant... can't see it now.

No, it's still up. Enjoyed that, but then I think he's great anyway. Slagging off Big Sam, grandiose promises, the commode mouth - love it all. I'd like it if he licked these guys' boots a bit less, but that's Kean for you, he challenges you at every turn.

i can't see it

me "either"

lots of dalglish resignation rumours on twitter.

rumours of Martinez? Hadn't occurred to me I must say

No, thank you.

ludicrous rumours of rafa and martinez teaming up! it worked well with houllier and evans, i say try it again.

in fact, two managers would be good, but three would be two more than any team in the league.

let's go rafa/martinez/capello

Liverpool not confirming or denying it, I guess that's it then?

amazing - and both are looking good for another 20 years at least

1246:
BREAKING NEWS: FOOTBALL
Manager of the 20 Seasons has been awarded to Sir Alex Ferguson, who has won 12 Premier League titles in his time in charge of Manchester United.

1245:
BREAKING NEWS: FOOTBALL
Ryan Giggs has been named Player of the 20 Seasons of the Premier League as selected by an expert panel.

Benitez might be good for LFC, now.

I like the Benitez / Capello team idea.

No, thank you.

classic Liverpool, can see this working out well

really? kinda bemused by the martinez hype to be honest.

Didn't you see the way he single handedly almost made Gary Caldwell look like a Premier League defender?

only just seen

"I went but I am back, older, wiser and with a vengance" [sic]

can't quite tell if this is real

is THIS a joke?

I am not used to twitter

I'm not saying Martinez is rubbish, just that it would be a fairly wild gamble to put him in charge of a club going for honours.

iirc lfc ilfers got stick for the lack of enthusiasm when Hodgson was appointed as well. It turned out well in the end tho.

still getting stick for that as apparently he did such a brilliant job.

they prob would have finished in the CL this year, or won the league, if they'd kept Hodgson and stayed up last year.

yeah because the scores were right your sentence now is perfect.

i love the way football works like that.

martinez would do as well as dalglish, i think, but that's sidestepping that dalglish is leaving for a reason.

Nobody currently managing in the pl fits the job.

Rafa back? Oh pls.

Foreign manager? Ramos put me off for lyfe tbh.

It'll be AVB I reckon

The iconic Frenchman was the preferred option of the hundreds and thousands of voters from around the world for the nonchalant way he acknowledged his goal against Sunderland at Old Trafford in 1996...

...With Old Trafford in raptures, the mercurial forward slowly pirhouetted on the spot, surveying the scene and calmly taking in the magic of the moment, before eventually holding his arms aloft as McClair arrived to celebrate his brilliance.

Upon hearing that he had won the award, Cantona said: "That's the only thing I won? For a king like me it's not a lot."

not really seeing a point there, xpost, but feel free to make one.

we need, i mean we really need, as a board, to figure out the houllier/rafa/hodgson/dalglish thing, aside from the 'coddled the precious fans' thing, which has really fouled the water.

Roberto Martinez	3	
Rafael Benitez		5/2	
Andre Villas-Boas	12	
Paul Lambert		14
Brendan Rodgers		14	
Jose Mourinho		16	
Martin ONeill		16	
Steve Clarke		16	
Unai Emery		16	
Jorge Jesus		16	
Carlo Ancelotti		20

Steven Gerrard 40/1

i tried a glib response to that, dmac, but it's actually v tough to separate the bosses. (apart from the fact that roy and dalglish are on some distant lower level and part of a different era really, "the shit years")

assessing evans introduces a whole other set of probs. the years of dour and narrow bogball that followed his exit seem a sort of cul-de-sac from which we can't really escape, even as dalglish supposedly tries to play more open and attacking football.

martinez would do as well as dalglish, i think, but that's sidestepping that dalglish is leaving for a reason.

i like the way rafa is somehow not a 'foreign manager' unlike say the foreigns who have won the league two out of the last three years

houllier- made ye feel young & beautiful when ye took a holiday to greece, byeee roy!
Rafa- made brilliant love to ye, told beautiful lies, stopped ye seeing your friends and beat you when he drank. When he left he took your jewellery.
Woy- picked you off the pavement, took you home, gave you a bath and a brandy. Probably cooked your dinners, always wondered why you wouldn't let him frot you. Seemed relieved when you were gone when he came home one day.
Dalglish- you ended up with a bitter drunk, nobody surprised. Keep the eyes peeled for the next latino waiter, though!

srsly they should get rafa back

i was using foreign as 'not managed in epl', sorry- hence avb being allowable.

from onimo's list
no, yes, yes,dunno, yes,no,no,no,yes,dunno, no

Rafa still lives in Liverpool doesn't he? Not foreign

yes to rafa back? can't stomach more rafa, i really think now it's time for a clean break and a strong-minded person and no more insular lfc past/present headfuck

Rafa holding out for Chelsea iho
