And yes Benitez won the champions league, but it was with the players Houllier left, that's my point. It may of been a change of management which won us the competition, but it was the same players, alls I'm saying is the players were good enough to win the champions league, and therefore not a bad squad to inherit.

OK you seem to be happy with us finishing 5th, well I'm not. I saw us lift title and title in the 70s n 80s so it probably hurts me more than most. But you are like the majority of current day "fans" happy as long as we win a trophy or beat Everton, well there's a bit more to it than that. But if you're happy finishing 5th and think 5th is a step forwards from what we were, all credit to you.
god_bless_john_houlding wrote:well when you think that we're 5th and that's not backwards, it sort of indercates 5th is an improvement.
