Welcome . A worrying feature for me is that within the huge number of players we have signed this season we have signed a few who are clearly good players who start well and then four or five games later look poor. Examples are Windsor under Holloway and Matete and Adams under Hurst. This would suggest that whatever the underlying problems are within the club they haven’t been sold by a change of manager.

More a case of bad players don't become good.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

I think this club sucks the life out of players. Been happening for years.

The first Liverpool team to lose five consecutive home games at Anfield in their history.

And over ten hours without scoring a goal in open play, sign them up.

Don't think the facilities at BP or Cheapside help in lifting spirits tbh.. bad runs turn into miserable slogs etc

Yep, the surroundings and facilities are dismal. It didn't matter so much in the past when most grounds were old and dilapidated but players expect better now.

Sadly we have signed more poor players than good so they are probably dragged down to the their level.

It's incredible.

Who would have thought this would happen at the end of last season?
