Reflections on last night: John W Henry has huge call to make over Hodgson. He needs to talk to senior players 1st. #lfc

Don't do this!! Last time Carra and Gerrard had a say we ended up with this fool. They obviously have fuck all clue.

This is just another sign that he hasn´t get professional football yet. Never make players more important than they are. To make it even more clear.. Never ask players if a certain manager would suit their thoughts. Just hire THE BEST YOU CAN GET.
One thing does need to be said: in the post-Benitez era, there was media-led clamour (but also some politicking going on at the club) to make the club more English; the idea being that the club had lost the very essence of what it means to be ‘Liverpool’. Guillem Ballague 18/11/10

You would suppose wrong.

Quite correct, Mr Henry will just be finishing his Lunch as its 1.45pm, time for some phone calls I believe, I was just hoping the were all doing business in LA which is why they were late up

I don't care if his tactics were right or wrong, the lack of motivation for the players well deserved the sack or his own resignation.

Roy, get out of our club. You have done nothing to suggest you are capable of handling a job like this (I wouldn't have appointed you in the first place); and instead of carrying yourself with dignity, you've repeatedly sniped and sounded like a whinging old man in turn throwing away any good feeling we would normally have afforded a Liverpool manager even at a time like this.

Please go before you make things worse your us and for yourself. Go, and this may be remembered as an unfortunate footnote in your memoirs.

You will find a lot of us did not want you here in the first place, and we had the foresight of knowing it would end like this. Out of good faith, we ground our teeth to see if you could shock and surprise us. And shock and surprise, you didn't. Please go.

Really sad that it has come to this. However, as well written and well intentioned as this letter is, it is my belief that Roy will be sacked on the basis of results and nothing else. If we lose against Bolton and Blackburn, I think he will be gone. However, if he gets results against these two, the fans fervor and the media fervor will die down until the next round of shoddy results which, to be fair, won't take that long to arrive.

Not to be pedantic :wave, but there's no infinitive in that sentence, only a subject pronoun ("I"), main verb in an active form ("wait"), and adverb ("patiently"). You could argue it wasn't proper to start the sentence with "And," but it's fine to split the verb and adverb. ". . . And patiently, I wait" is fine (should have a comma).

Just saying.

Have already signed but want to ask NESV a question

JWH & TW - how long are you prepared to wait? You might be thinking let's leave it a couple more games and hope that it all dies down but are you aware that after those 2 games we might be in the bottom3 again? In the bottom3 with some players who don't have the stomach for a relegation dogfight.

Also surely if you are thinking of a change now would better as the new man can get involved with DC about who he'd like to bring to them club than leaving it a couple weeks more and thus giving him less time to assess the playing squad and finding the necessary solutions.

I've never thought or felt like this about anyone connected with LFC let alone said it out loud but Roy - you are walking alone!
Has Steven Gerrard scored a goal even more important than the one he got against Olympiakos - Is this the start of something BIG?
