The rest of the article is similarly high praise that I really dont agree with. If he thinks that then maybe he can send Hodgson a text saying hes willing to come and play for the Reds. Now THAT would be helpful! |
While I think it is overstated do you not agree that a
fit (key word I know) trio of Gerrard, Torres, and Cole is quite an impressive forward threesome? (oo-er!)
I too believe that last season was a freak season. Liverpool could (and probably should) have won the Premier the season before with many of the same players. Perhaps I'm just more optimistic than most on here. Yeah, the ownership situation sucks, yeah the financial situation sucks, but while still a little thin squad wise the playing staff are simply not as bad as some of you are portraying. Liverpool have made three very solid signings so far this off season while offloading a problem guy in Reira and Yossi, who is more than ably replaced by Cole.
Last season was pathetic I get that but I'm much more optimistic for this campaign. I really like the Hodgson appointment the more I think about it. I like the signings, especially Cole. I like that we are on the way to getting rid of the two pariahs. It is going to happen eventually. Liverpool are way bigger than those two muppets.
I have faith still.
