Ah, at last some reality. Spot on there fella. I think everyone including Rafa has underestimated the job of rebuilding liverpool and I know its only a few games into the season but Im still not 100% confident Cisse and Baros can replace Owens goals, there is alot of work to do on them but we simply dont have the time. We must bring in a striker who can drop off hold the ball up and link play better and centre back with pace (although I like the look of Jamie there). There are other players who I feel its time to get off the wage bill, Diao for one will NEVER be good enough to play for us and I feel we have seen the best of Henchoz if we can move on traore as well we should be able to bring in another 2-3 players. I fear Rafa may be forced to wait until Xmas to invest with all thats happening at boardroom level and by then we may have little to win. I am being negative I know and I also know it will take time to adjust after GH's methods but we have a weak squad in defence and attack anyway and it needs addressing now.
The man who came to merseyside from Newcastle, the man who says he's part of Liverpool as much as the Liver building. When he was needed Alan Kennedy was there. And with now just 8 minutes to go it could be that Alan Kennedy has made a little history.
