A new season with a whole new squad, and some people are already moaning, even though we have drastically improved from last year. We have already played Arsenal, Tottenham and Stoke away from home, and stand two points off top four.
People forget that the new players need time to adjust just like Nani, Modric, Lucas, Ramires, Bale, Nasri and many others needed in their first year, who are now very good league players.
As for the team selection moaning, lets not forget that we struggled with many injuries in the last couple of seasons. Rotation is the right way to go, and I would expect this to show positively latter on in the season.
We have a whole new club with a new manager, team and owners, and this impatient mood after six games is ridiculous.
Patience

Can't believe I wrote an article and you just posted yours just before me! At least we agree people are prematurely judging the players

As a koppite it pains me to say it but Suarez is our only hope of gaining top four, but he needs mobility like Bolton and Brighton proved, the football was clinical and a throwback to the Liverpool way of playing!
We reverted to type again yesterday with a rigid 4-4-2 formation and it showed yet again that a top quality side will expose our weaknesses!
This is not impatience, more reality because we are carrying Adam Henderson and Carroll for large parts of games when we have the ammunition and quality to play high tempo football which opponents struggle to contain!
The 4-4-2 simply makes us look average and nowhere near as dangerous as the 4-1-3-2 or 4-3-3 formations of Bolton brighton fulham and birmingham are testimony to!
I am seriously confused.

While I respect the obviously heart-felt views as expressed above, please readers, do not be confused or impatient. Give the team a chance to show their colours, time is needed for them to bed in with a new manager, a new coach, a new system. I too have my concerns about aspects of the play, but I for one have faith in our manager. End of. YNWA JimmyTheRed
