We are still in three competitions - Houllier plays his "trump card"

Liverpool Football Club - General Discussion

According to Mr Houllier, we are still in three competitions so he doesn't know why people are panicking. On face value he is correct, but most fans can see straight through it

Premiership - yes Kermit, we are still in it as we are every season for 38 games! We are effectively out of contention to win it and, if you disregard results against the top three teams, have lost four games in "Premiership division two"

FA Cup - yes we are still in it, despite being very ordinary against third division opposition. Considering the 3rd round only took place in January and we could be out by February, saying we are still in it is lame

UEFA Cup - unless I missed something we have only played two rounds, so getting through is hardly an acheivement

Carling Cup - we got knocked out of the only cup competition to be anywhere near completion and that at home to Bolton

So to recap - we are in three competitions, one of which has had one round, another has had two rounds and the third (the Premiership), we are struggling to finish fourth in and have lost 7 games already.

I feel so much better about things when you put it that way!  :D

When we won those three cups, they should have been a platform to challange for the Premership and the Champions League.

What makes it worse with Houllier is that whenever he can he brings up the 5 TROPHIES in a year bollox. Two of those were the Charity Shield and The Super Cup !
I always believed that Kenny had an anti climatic second season in charge after winning the double in 85 / 86. We only came 2nd in the League and lost a cup final but apparently I was wrong ! We won the Screen Sports Super Cup !
