I respect what Kenny Dalglish has done for Liverpool & the squad his assembled.
You spent 22mil on suarez and that is looking like a massive bargain he looks class, I think liverpool will do well this season.
I want to ask you lot about Andy Carroll I think his ok but I do think that you lot are playing at your best when he isn't in the team because when he's playing theres a tendancy too go long because of his height but when kuyt plays behind suarez i think thats better.
What do you lot think of Carroll & what role do you see him playing e.g. starter, squad player etc good luck for the season
Arsenal Fan in Peace

Agree we tend to not play proper pass and move when he's playing due to the height long ball temptation.
Technically we don't have a first XI it's more of squad and players will be picked based of requirements.

Newcastle fan in peace. It amazed me how much was paid for him, he was a player who scored goals for us in the championship. I personally think Kenny lost the plot on that one.
Having said that with the window closed and a whole load of lies yet again from our manager and board, good luck to the lad.

I used to hate your club but i think it was more hate of Rafa he got the better of Chelsea a few times but he was a really bad manager who some how actually won stuff, i put it down to Steven Gerrarde. Kenny Dalglish on the other hand is nothing short of a genius to manage what he has in this amount of time he literally pulled your club out of the gutter and back to top 4 contention, which is allot harder with man city and spurs on the scene. He has a good ability to buy the right players for your club i mean Liverpool actually have strength in depth. To be honest i think this year i think you will be back in the champions league at the expense of Arsenal. Also the way Liverpool is run now shows what a pair of numpties Hicks and Gillete were.

If Kenny can beat some sense into our players not to give into the temptation to lump it at Carroll he'll do really well.
If not, he'll end up a very expensive plan B. Not Carroll's fault, he scores his best goals with his feet. But if the others can't resist Crouchitis then it will be a big mistake.
And as a side note, I don't understand people who don't rate Rafa as one of the best managers around. 2 La Liga titles, two CL finals and two 80+ points finishes in the league on finances that don't even come close to justifying any of that. I just don't get it. He got Liverpool punching well above our weight class and got crucified for it. I just don't get the criticism.

op good points and your not wumming (which is rare theese days with the gooners)
andy is over priced @ 35 m ......however i do think hes going to be a good signing.
because of the injuries and the price tag i dont expect massive things from him this year but if he got a few 90 minute games under his belt and a few goals i think hes definitly a 15 goal marksman ...but only time will tell.
ps....some astute signings from wenger by the way
