Rafa says that he will work towards balancing the squad from Owen's transfer proceeds. Definitely need a real right midfielder and more creativity. Also a quick central defender would also help.
We have been a frustrated lot after suffering from the "5 year plan which did not meet with its objectives after the 6th year", and rightfully expect a lot from this new gaffa who had guided Valencia to win the Primera Liga 2 times in 3 years without much money and beating the likes of Barca, Real Madrid and Deportivo but do give the man a chance to do some work before passing judgement after the first EPL game.
Bear in mind that we have not been a consistent participant in the CL ever since it became such a big money spinner and due to that, we are behind Manure and Arsenal and also have to contend with Chalski who have virtually no budget limit. Time is needed and give Rafa the backing when we got Houllier who had not won so much as Rafa.
Come on, guys. Liverpool fans are a more cultured lot who appreciate good football and are the more patient and tolerant fans.
