If you were made the new Liverpool manager...

[zigackly]

PurpleNose will understand.

I'd want a super contract and at least 3 seasons to get a squad that is good enough to compete for a top 4 finish. Lots of people are saying who they would get for their first team but it's behind the scenes that the club needs to be improved the most. We need players with confidence in each other and a SQUAD that is big enough and strong enough to compete, in at least the league.

 

Some of those benches that we had towards the end of the season were embarrassing from a fan's point of view.

[INTORRESTING]

Make the players bathe in horse placenta every day and then say: "Remember Madrid onwards last season? Do that every game."

[Fowlers God]

Joe Cole will want to stay in at Chelsea or in London - i guarantee it

 

.....unless Man City offer £120k a week

 

You are going on ignore. I have tried to neg you at least 5 times today and its really infuriating me.

[WaltonRed]

I'd attempt to re-unite the squad and then the supporters.

 

I'd sell the shite, Degen et al.

 

I'd sacrifice a couple like Strtel to raise funds.

 

I'd promote the likes of Spearing, Kelly, Ayala full time.

 

I'd spend what I had on one player or two if I had significant funds, ie: we sell El Jefe cos he wont re-sign.

I think Kelly and Ayala train with the first team squad already.

[Guest PurpleNose]

No, I wasn't getting at any individuals mate, or deriding what people have put forward. I do think we need major surgery, not just a facelift though.

 

Sorry if I pissed you off.

 

Don't be absurd.

 

I doubt I've read a single post that has pissed me off, certainly not one from you. Anyway I'm eating pasta now, so I'm in my happy place.

 

 

Guess who won the league again.[/quoteIT]

I know that Paul I meant they'd be involved a lot more in the first team, I should of been clearer

Purplenose has inspired me to a new forum challenge. New topic pending.

[Welsh]

Sell Kuyt, Lucas, Agger, Masch, Torres. App 180m. Buy Otamendi (CD), Sandro (DM), Kryvstov (CD,DR), AAron Gudjohnson (DM,AM), Milevski (ST), Dzeko(ST) Moussa Sissoko(DM,CM) Veloso (CM) all for around 60M. We will challenge for the league and Dzeko will become 1 of the best strikers in the world, Sissoko will be the new Gerrard (with the right training) Otamendi will become world class. Kryvstov will become young player of the year. And Sandro is fuckin great (altho, think Spurs have him now--6m--Bargain) If enough money left over. would get Gourcuff(AM. AMR). Its fuckin easy this management lark. Same tactics every game, Attack Attack Attack. Dont worry about the opposition.

 

I see you have based this by just playing FM. :wallbutt:

 

I'm confident in saying I bet you have not seen the majority of them play (and even if you have I bet that was only one game)

I think that your point is the same one he was trying to make through use of witty sarcasm. (i hope)

[kacangpool]

i'd talk about facts.

Hammy, when can I start?

The reason we have so few geniuses is that people do not have faith in what they know to be true.

I think too much emphasis is put on money. Yes we need 100's of millions to compete with the mancs x2 chavs and even the Arse ! But what I would rather do instead of paying over the odds for fuckin foreign shite, I'd build a team of good Englush/British players. Forget about the league ( we have for 21 years) and go for Gary Cahill, Sccott Parker, Joe Cole, Tom Huddlestone, Ryan Shawcross, Carlton Cole, Theo Walcott, Mathew Etherington, James Milner, Marcus Bent, players like that who will add to the squad and build a team for the future. We perform better with a Scot in our team throughout our history we have had a Scottish influence adn I always feel better when we have a good Jock in the team, young Wilson from Ranger should fill that void for me soon. I'm glad of the shift in emphasis away from young foreign signings unless they are top class. British is best for me and a sense of reality. We are NOT going to challenge so lets build a good British team. if Gerrard n Torres go well get good money and move on we are Liverpool FC not Gerrard FC or Torres Fc or Rafa Fc for that matter, no matter what happens in the summer we will be there supporting the lads with a sense of reality, we'll be fighting for 5/6th place

If I was manager we'd be fighting relegation with the two cunt owners. It would be attacking football though.

 

2-0 up with 15 minutes to go and end up losing 5-4 trying to please the fans instead of shutting down the game.

 

I would shoot any players that aimlessly run 20 yards to foul a defender or concede a throw in near the opposition corner flag.

 

All passes should be forward or result in a cross for a goal attempt. None of this getting a corner and the ball ending up with Pepe 3 passes later.

 

Midfielders will be encouraged to attempt defence splitting passes rather than passing it backwards for a defender to pass it sideways twice and eventually lump in forward when the forwards haven't lost their marker.

 

The players would end up ignoring all my instructions and I'd get the blame.

Marcus Bent? Really?

I'll give you four words:

POSITION OF MAXIMUM OPPORTUNITY.

That is still being taught. We teach players in this country to win before we teach them how to play.
