I agree with you guys that we played sh*t and Downing, Carroll, Henderson and Adam esp. ought to be axed. And I guarantee 4th place is out of the question.
I also suspect it could be, wait for this..... the players didn't want to win games on purpose because there's a rift between them and KD. The rift could be due to strategy differences, could not play the Liverpool pass and move and with them being millionaire footballers, they feel they have the ability to oust KD out of his post. That's why KD trying to nib the bud early, threatened to axe certain players.
Why am I suspecting this? Because what's happening at our club is reminiscent to what happened at Newcastle in the last days of Bobby Robson's tenure. Shearer and the rest of players managed to oust Robson out by purposely throwing away their games and once Robson was out, they won their first game 8-0 and started to climb up the table. I suspect but hope not, this is what is happening here.
Many of us say that we don't have clinical finishers, well, Kuyt, Suarez esp. are clinical enough, it could be they did it on purpose just to get KD out.
I could get a lot of stick from you guys on this, but please, anyone, let me know what you think.
