Houillier has taken the club as far as he can, and he has clearly not been all there since his heart operation - playing Heskey repeatedly instead of Baros, sticking with Diouf, letting Owen take the penalties despite a 60% strike rate are just some of the blunders that he has committed since the end of the 2001-2002 season. I think that this incompetence has rubbed off on a number of players and has affected them psychologically. We need a fresh, energetic and up and coming achiever like Martin O'Neill to now take us to the next level, and we should all thank GH for some great highlights and a taste of the glory days again.
