What worries you!!! ???!!!

Mate, if Rafa Benitez wins the title this year I will be too busy kissing the guy's feet to be worrying about anything, and I will see it as absolute justification for any of the nonsense that has gone on before.

Tonyeh's post sums it all about the attitude of some posters. Now we know that not even a league title will be enough to appease them.

We don't only have to find a manager that wins the league, we have to find one who wins the league and his decissions are shared and understood by Tonieh

And monkeys are not allowed to coach a club right?

We're well and truly fúcked then.

team tinkering does not work on a sustained basis, unless changes are forced (injuries etc)

if we win the league this year, it will be blind luck that we have

if we win all our games, that includes beating the mancs (the customary 6 pointer), then we could effectively win it !!

we are 2 points behind having played a game more, if they win that game hand we are 5 points behind. even if we beat them we are 2 points behind meaning they still need to lose another game, be it the game in hand or any other game.

I agree. We blew it with the draws and now it's up to  us winning all the games and Manure slip up. Chances of all that happening , not being negative but realistically...i would say very slim.  :down:

Kenny Dalglish believes critics of Rafa Benitez's team selection at Portsmouth are talking 'nonsense'.
The gaffer raised a few eyebrows with a 5-3-2 formation without Xabi Alonso, Dirk Kuyt, Albert Riera and Fernando Torres.

Despite the fact it took a late goal from Torres to wrap up the points, Dalglish believes victory was fully deserved.

The Kop icon told LFC Magazine: "To be fair to Rafa Benitez, in the face of yet more ridiculous nonsense, I think the formation he chose to play at Fratton Park was excellent.

"Everyone looked happy with their role in the team and when that happens you've always got a chance.

"The one thing people seem to be missing with Rafa's selection is the effect it had on Portsmouth.

"I don't know how much work Rafa was able to do with the players with this idea in mind, but by the time the players kicked off on Saturday night they all knew what it was they were supposed to be doing.

"In contrast, Pompey didn't have a clue and were taken off guard. Imagine you were Tony Adams and you saw that team - you've spent all week working on a formation, then you're up against something new and unexpected.

"If we'd taken our chances then Rafa's decision would rightly have been hailed a masterstroke. It took Pompey an hour and a sub before they got into the game.

"The two goals they got were avoidable but there was little the boss could do from the touchline to prevent those.

"The media are hailing it as a lucky result. Even if he'd picked the team they clearly believed to be the best, would we still not have needed a wee bit of luck?

"Of course we'd still have needed a slice of luck, but would anyone really argue that we didn't deserve to win that game? I don't think so!"
