Maybe we are our own worst enemy at times clinging to our past and History also.
But when you are the most successfull club in the UK its hard not to cling onto hopes of Liverpool of the past, and wish to win title after title over and over again, win everything beat all that is put infront of you, think that teams are terrified to come to our sacred home.
Its difficult I know we are in a transitional period now, but when a new manager comes in we get told the same thing, give it time it will all be ok in the end.
But then there becomes a time where you dont believe these things anymore, and I suppose it just hurts to face the truth that we are not the best around and we are a long way from it.
Reading in the echo tonight, this has been our worst start of the season since 1969 FFS I wasnt even born then, so it makes you wonder WHY?
How can we just win 2 european tropheys, and then perform so bad in the prem?
I said it yesterday and Ill say it again I do believe Rafa needs to employ and ex red, and Thommo is the right man for the job, he lives, eats, breathes Liverpool the guy loves our club with all his heart, and he will be more use to Rafa than Paco, Im not saying get rid of Paco, but they need help with these teams we face over 38 games a season.
No one predicted that a multi billionair would buy the premiership, and the only way anyone can stop the total domination of them is to abandon the games, escpecially at stamford Bridge, something needs to be done, whats the point in just playing for a place in the CL or UEFA Cup every season?
Its a sport afterall only it seems like they are cheating with every game they play because its very unfair that no one can match them in players.
Sorry gone off topic, about the History of Liverpool, as I said before maybe we are to blame also that we harp on about it so much, but when you win the CL for the 5th time, its hard not to bring the history back up.
I know that Rafa and Montse his wife read books and watch tapes of the Liverpool of old, and his wife is facinated by Shanks, and I suppose the hardest part of it all is the language barrier and trying to put things across in english what he would love to say and do.
There is no-one anywhere in the world at any stage who is any bigger or any better than this football club.
