I'm Embarrassed to Admit It, I've All But Given Up on Hodgson

[redfromtubebar]

With a transfer budget of £245 million?

Imagine if Rafa or Roy had that.

 

That is failing.

 

Come on mate, you should know that Pellegrini was not buying the players at Madrid.

 

If you can call finishing with the highest points total in Madrid's history and winning 31 out of 38 games (the same as Barca) and scoring 102 goals (more than Barca) a failure then you must be somebody of exceptionally high standards.

Hodgson is clearly bullshitting when he said he didn't want a striker anyway after we failed to get one.

[Woo]

Hodgson is clearly bullshitting when he said he didn't want a striker anyway after we failed to get one.

 

He clearly didn't say that, though.

[MLB]

My 'on the pitch' worry with Roy is that he seems to favour a passive 'funnel back behind the ball' defence .

 

I think our lack of pace means that we should be hunting in packs aggressively to win the ball high up the pitch , as what is happening at the moment is we are regaining possession near our area & taking forever to get it anywhere near Torres or Ngog who are by then totally outnumbered by the opposition.

 

It doesn't seem any coincidence to me that the 2 most aggressive halves we have played this season ( Arsenal 2nd / tonight 2nd ) have been our best in my opinion.

 

 

Good analysis.

Hodgson is clearly bullshitting when he said he didn't want a striker anyway after we failed to get one.

 

As Alex has already pointed out, he never said that.

 

You're putting words in his mouth a bit there.

I got slated by some for posting this thread. This isn't an 'I told you so' but I wonder how many would agree with the sentiment now, a handful of weeks on?

 

If you were able to vote in the original poll, how many still want to give Roy time?

[Anubis]

You'll need a new poll.

[Wee-bey]

I wish to change my vote.

[Arl arse]

He needs to pack his bags now before any more damage is done.

[Anny Road]

[derrickt]

Can we have a new poll? I wish to change my vote

[Sandman]

There's no need for a new poll. Practically everyone at this point, apart from Irishlad and mypost, agree with AndyM.

[General Dryness]

I took the second choice, but as far as I'm concerned I've seen enough to switch my opinion to option 4.

[YNWAViking]

His just really bad at psychology methinks. Or he's too used to managing shit teams that has zero hope of getting on the first half of the table, which leads to him always thinking the opposing team is "equivalent or better than us". Poor attitude when being a LFC manager, of course.

[Mark M]

Northampton Fans celebrate a win at anfield.

Blackpool Fans celebrate a win at anfield.

Everton Fans chant "going down" while they comfortably beat us 2-0 to send us second from bottom.

Option 4. - I don't want him here, and I want him sacked before any more damage is done.

[BCM]

Mans a fucking embarassment. Scratches his head on the touchline as we are losing 2-0.

Bye Roy, your a nice fella, but your so out of your depth its untrue.

To think we sacked Rafa Benitez to bring you in fucking hurts more by the day.

[05 Milan]

He will take us down,which will be quite an achievement in itself. Time to get rid, we can hopefully afford a competent manager this time around.

[Torvald Utne]

There's no need for a new poll. Practically everyone at this point, apart from Irishlad and mypost, agree with AndyM.

 

They can't still be backing him surely?

 

Say what you like about Roy but he's managed to bring some unity to us fans, after years of bickering about the manager I think we can now all agree on something.

[navbasi]

New Poll here with the same questions...

I jibbed the game (which was live out here) to go and play a round of golf. I haven't done that for a Derby game since the days of Souness. It's far less frustrating duffing my way around a golf course than watching us play at the moment

[stevensr123]

The guy is an embarrassment and should never have been a liverpool manager. he is always downplaying this MASSIVE club, shows no confidence in the team, doesn't defend or support are players.

 

It's sad that it has ended to quickly, but he has brought nothing new to the club and we have went backwards rapidly under him,

[Pony Princess]

Well he's certainly taken us to new places (relegation zone) and plays a unique brand (i.e. awful) of football, made an impression on the players (lost the dressing room) etc etc :whistle:

[Randy Marsh]

Hey, look on the bright side! At least Martin ONeil, Steve Bruce, Big Sam, Moysie and the Grand Old Sir Alex don't hate us anymore! They love us in fact, because we are giving out points like sweets and the well respected Roy won't say any nasty words about them.

 

Seriously, if Carra was so wound up about the LMA Ferguson disciple clique hating us then he really needs to re-assess his fuckin priorities.
