GH is desperately trying to hold on to his job. He has built a squad of mediocre, but loyal subjects. These players will stand by his side. Lokk at recent media stories where Murphy and Carragher pledges their loyalty to Houllier. They say "the criticism has made us stronger". I'm not convinced at all. These players are so poor that they should never have played for a top team like Liverpool. They are only too happy to stay here, and no decent manager would allow such cr#p to enter anfield with a red jersey. These guys do not even possess the most basic skills. First touch, pace, strenght, control. As for Houllier, he will never retire. The board must force him out, the sooner the better. I think he has one year left of his contract, which means he will be walking out the gates with a lucurative golden parachute.
The new manager will inherit a poor squad. But with Liverpools financial strenght he will be able to turn things around in maybe 3-4 years time. It is however a massive job.
If football is banned in heaven. I'd rather go to hell.
