maybe adam was his shout but he`s probably the only one, downing and henderson were signed because their stats were great, who does that sound like? dalglish or comoli?
But can Comolli just sign anyone without consulting Dalglish? I find it strange that the manager wouldn't be able to decide who comes into the club and who doesn't. I don't know what goes on behind the scenes, but if Comolli can sign whoever he wants regardless of the managers view point then our club is in serious trouble. I do hope you're barking up the wrong tree, either way the squad is more than capable of producing far better results than they have been in the last two months. 5 defeats in 6 games and 3 wins in 14 matches is just unacceptable, it's a through back to last season with Roy Hodgson as our manager. It does seem as though you are hell bent on defending Dalglish to the hilt, where by you do not accept any criticism of him, I do find that strange. Suarez being suspended for eight matches saw us beat Manchester United 2-1 in the FA Cup. Yes we have missed Gerrard and Lucas, but we seem to have won more matches without Gerrard than with him this season, how do you explain that? Dalglish is the man who has persisted in constantly playing Adam, Downing and Henderson over players like Maxi, Bellamy and Kuyt. He was the man who sanctioned the loan of Aquilani to AC Milan and Meireles' sale to Chelsea.
Dalglish warrants the criticism he is getting, but I do hope he gets things right next season. If there is one manager I really want to see do well, it's King Kenny.
i accept dalglish is going to get criticism because he has made mistakes but i dont like the way everytime we go through a sticky spell with a manager suddenly the names of other coaches and managers start to be mentioned, this is LFC not chelsea fc.
i think dalglish was consulted about the players coming in but that still isnt the same as how players came to the club under rafa or evans or souness or whoever, i dont think kenny sat there looking over pages of stats and stats looking for his next signing, kenny is not from that generation of manager.
he obviously hasnt got carte blanche to sign who he wants, there is (or at least was) some sort of half @r$sed cod-baseball theory behind our purchases so why should kenny take 100% of the blame for the signings?
as for your arguments about kuyt and maxi thats just your opinion, kuyt has been in the side in the past and stunk the place out for months on end and maxi has gone missing in plenty of games as well, but suddenly they are the answer? bellamy obviously cant play every week because his knee`s are f**ked, thats why we got a player of his quality on a free. aquilani had fell out of love with england way before kenny got the job and meireles wanted out.
