I think people are failing to see the obvious here. I know this is my first post but I have been lurking here for a
long, long time and I have almost 30 years experience behind me in following Lfc so I wanted to share some things that
have been on my mind for a while.
Kenny is a legend and nobody is trying to take anything away from what he has done.
Lets take a look at his signings.
Andy Carroll. Lets not mince our words, the lad is rubbish and shows no technical ability or potential to get better.
He is immobile, rigid, unintelligent, slow and one dimensional. The £35 million price tag was totally unjustified and
was on the back of a few long range goals and headers. No wonder Derek Llambias claimed Carroll was worth 'fuck all'.
We are waiting for something that is never going to happen. The lad is never going to get better. You can tell with his
positioning. He just can't read the game at all and what's worse is the fact that he seems weaker than this time last
season, and certainly since his time at the Toon, so he has lost his strength which is the only thing he seems to have
going for him on his good days.
Overall, a horrendous waste of £35 squill and the blame lies soley at Kenny.
Jordan Henderson. This boy may well improve on a scale above that of Carroll but yet again, he is another poor player.
He lacks fight in midfield although sometimes he may show the odd good touch. I can see why Kenny is playing him because
if you want the rainbow you have to put up with the rain but surely a loan move would be better. Good players can fit
into systems without 'training' so I don't know what Kenny is thinking. I hate the term 'got to get used to the way we
play' because good players can do it effortlessly. I think Kenny is showing a lack of confidence in the player with a
blind, hopeless faith that someday he will be a quality performer.
Overall, £16 squill on this young boy was very optimistic but also very stupid.
Stuart Downing
Where to start with this boy? I never rated him at Boro or Villa, he could sling in the odd good cross but again he is
so one dimensional, he doesn't do anything else but cross which is predictable. He's a poor man's Beckham with similar
attributes; cannot get round players, relies on stationary crosses, slow etc. He is never a Liverpool player in a
million years and Kenny has wasted a massive amount of money on him. What was he thinking?
Overall, 20 sodding mill down the turdpipe.
Charlie Adam
I think this guy gets bad press from people on here as he is never as bad as the likes of Downing, Henderson or Carroll.
Personally I think he's just having a bad season. I think next season we'll see a better player.
Overall, £9 mill is slightly OTT but I believe he will come good.
Craig Bellamy
Brilliant player, great signing, should play more games.
Luis Suarez
Good player with great football brain but can't stand his theatrics. Almost embarrassing to us. Can do with being less
greedy but to be honest, if I had the ball, took a look around I would end up going on myself. Who else we got?
Jose Enrique
Solid full back, very good player. Good investment.
We desperately need a midfielder to replace Gerrard who only shows up in the big games these days. Both he and Carra are over the hill; Gerrard maybe has one more season left in him but we need to be looking at buying a creative midfielder
At the end of the day, when all is said and done, Kenny has thrown a lot of money down the drain on some very poor players
and we sit around slagging off the Hodg but he never had this kind of cash. We now have Kenny and sure, we won a cup
which means bugger all - didnt Leicester win it a few years back - but can we seriously say that yesterdays debacle was
anything worse than what we witnessed under Hodg? Or even GH? I doubt it. Kenny comes out with all these embarrassing excuses
like the 'players were tiired' and 'we were unlucky' but i'm starting to doubt his ability to lead us forward. He seems to
come from an ancient period in football which has long been forgotten and would not stand a chance next to the more free
thinking football that Mourinho and co preach. You cant just hack the ball up to a big man and hope he heads it down
anymore. Those days are gone. And I think so is Kenny.
Stop living in false hope. We need to wait for Mourinho and get him.
