But the value in the market for strikers has been very poor. I cant think of an adequate striker this season that might have been relatively cheap.
You also need to remember that he probably only had about 3 days to find a striker since we had no money untill Mascherano was sold. We needed a left back and a midfielder so he got them. How much money did we have left after them? f/uck all. Hence why he went for Cole

Hopefully the Man City game will have been a hard lesson to learn for Roy's tactical faux pas, and any result in the next 2 games would suffice in my book. Although I would expect us to win at Birmingham, but 2 points from these 2 games would be acceptable.

It would have been six if Reina hadn't have thrown it in against Arsenal, and the Europa league wins include a Home and away success against a decent Trabzonspoor team. We were well beaten at Man City, but when you've got mercenary players saying their mind isn't right and you've got to bin your plans hours before kick-off, it's hardly the ideal preperation for playing Away at one of the top teams. We didn't do overly welll Away at the top teams last season either, so it's not as if it's anything new.
Even against West Brom where we scraped home a bit, it was after a difficult European tie (which we won) and we know how tough that can be. Ask Tottenham, who got done at Home by Wigan after their Champions League heroics midweek. Wigan who'd got tonked 6 at Chelsea and 4 at home to Blackpool. We didn't play well, but we got home.
I'm pretty happy right now, and like ALL Liverpool fans I'm 100% hopeful Roy is going to keep on doing a top job : buttrock .
