I'm not a scouser in any way shape or form, thank you very much...

Benitez was an expensive disaster at Liverpool, I'll never understand the clueless hordes of reds fans who want him back, and I don't understand why you're trying to attribute any other opinion to me?

Errrrrrr..... again, struggling to see your point....

He was brilliant for 2 seasons at the reds, has been cack ever since, super cack at Chelsea in fact. I understand your point on this one even less than previously....


Because you are obviously very dumb.

People on here argue that the LFC job isn't the draw that it was in the past. You claim that they are one of the biggest clubs in the world and their fans will give them more love than they can get anywhere but 3 or 4 clubs.

I'm pointing out that the worship and adulation that the most worshipped recent members of the club are fleeting at best. So why would a manager feel a special draw to Liverpool, considering that success would be easier to attain at other clubs? They wouldn't, you were just talking 5hit.


Again, not sure what point it is that you think I've made... I have never and would never claim anything other than the fact that it will take hundreds of millions of pounds, a top manager and 3 or 4 seasons to get Liverpool back to the top, the combination of all 3 of which is highly unlikely for the foreseeable future.


I agree. So why say "The manager who comes in and turns them around would be guaranteed the kind of worldwide adulation and legendary status that maybe only 2 or 3 other jobs in football could hope to match" as if that is in any way relevant?

Jose would keep Khedira wouldn't he?....unless somebody made a large offer for him.

I could see Kaka at PSG or maybe China.

Wasn't 'Arry after Diarra?

Because it was metaphorical, dumb ass. I'm not saying it's going to happen any time soon. It isn't. All I'm saying is, the day it does happen, whenever that may be, the manager that achieves it, whoever it may be, will achieve worldwide legendary status and adulation the likes of which no manager of a comparatively tin pot club like Chelsea could ever dream of. Give any top manager the chance to realistically have a chance to make it happen (and that clearly isn't now as there's not sufficient money, too many **** signings on big salaries to have to get rid of and too much loony Benitez and Dalglish BS from the fans to have to hack through) and I doubt there's many that would turn down the chance to have a go at it. Certainly, all things being equal (which they aren't in any way shape or form right now), no manager would ever choose Chelsea over Liverpool unless they really, really enjoyed going to musical theatre or getting bummed in Soho. So ner.

If all things are equal, then surely as many managers would choose Chelsea as chose Liverpool, you ****ing retard.

I think Northampton Saint is Mickey Quinn. Some of the stuff he was spouting on TalkSport the other day regarding Liverpool still being a massive draw because of the name history etc were just embarrassing. I love that RAWK Meltdown on Twitter, first class stuff from the biggest delusionists on Earth

By the looks of things Chelsea will have about 3 chances all game to score off.

Bet if it stays 0-0 for a while Bayern will be thinking Aston Villa '82 again :)
