Liverpool FC’s Dilemma
simonireland | Thursday, March 25th, 2010 | 237 Comments »Buy, Buy, Buy more players. No, Sell, Sell, Sell Benitez.
Who cares? I do. From a lifetime fan perspective, I want to see the club return to health. I want to be excited to watch some of that infamous attacking football that used to scare the crikey out of everyone who played the Reds. Right now though, I’m pretty much indifferent about the team, and have enjoyed watching Arsenal & Barca as my default exciting football fix.
What has to happen…..New Players, New Owners, New Stadium, More money……? Chelsea have loads of the stuff and though it helps, it obviously does not buy the silverware. Inter Milan tried it back in the 90’s, Real Madrid have tried it – twice.
The fact remains, without Stevie G and Torres fit & on the field every game, you have a Wigan. Wait a minute, to be fair, Wigan did beat the Reds. Benitez and his rotation is a waste of time. Why, because he does not have the squad to rotate. Liverpool are a second tier club when it comes to attracting players. What happened to the feed of Academy players like Owen, Gerrard, Macca, Fowler, Carra, Murphy that were given their chance at Anfield?
The scene is eerily reminiscent of Gerard Houllier’s last days, if you are a fan, you would remember that period when Houllier tried to buy, sell, buy, sell his way out of trouble………Benitez can’t do that now, there is no money, so his formula for success is without the essential ingredient – he could sell, sell, sell his players but that lessens still his already meagre rotation options…..whoops, there go the masterplan.
I know, how about a simple remedy, a new manager to start with. The turbulent times these days at Anfield, can be directly attributed to the Commander in Chief himself. Even players are now openly stating what most already accept.
How convenient is this – Juventus are reportedly “making inquiries” about Benitez…….Sell, sell, sell him and buy back Alonso from Madrid.
For the time being, I will ‘hopefully’ enjoy the upcoming Arsenal – Barca game (Wed March 31). Unless of course, the scourge of modern football, that is, the stakes being so big these days with the huge amounts of money that goes with victory threatens the potential of what is Europe’s most exciting match up this season and we end up with a predictable and cagey contest of handbags at 10 paces. (Man Utd did it in the CL Final last year)
In any case, All fat Spanish waiters should watch this game.
Till next time.

Interesting article! It’s always enjoyable to read about Man united. On a related note, what does everyone think of the new signing Hernandez? I think he could be a high-quality player, but the public are getting too excited too fast.
Remerciment, félicitation et respect.
