All 4 trophies lifted in or since 2022, the year eth joined utd aka barrys 'recent years'. cant argue with the facts.

Imagine being in Liverpool's most successful ever PL era, and United being in our least successful era and we are arguing about which team has been more successful in this era. As I said, standards.

Has anyone mentioned Alex Ferguson yet?

----------------------------------------------------------------------
I think Schmeichel mentioned him recently, letme get what he said.

"I've sat with Sir Alex today. It's really sad. I mean what he did for this football club everything that we enjoyed, the great times and everything.

"To sit with him and he's watching this... that for me is really, really sad. He did something really extraordinary with this football club. And all of that is not there anymore. The club changed."

"Then you have somebody coming in running the club," added Schmeichel. "They've supported the manager, they've given him money. We've played three games, we've lost two. I don't see the difference.

"I could really cry because of that because I want this team to do really, really well."

Just compare the relative happiness of both sets of fans over the last decade or so. Trophies arent the be all and end all in football, theres perspective. But i understand why Utd fans like Barry cling onto the little things when theres so much unhappiness at his club rn.

Here u go barry itll be alright, could be worse.

Could be scottish aswell

Manchester Us halve alweighs b uttersheet apart when Fergieson was coach.

Jussed knot a historicabubbly big team at all

I feel it’s an opportune time to revisit this outstanding article.

What say you now Diafol?

Yeah it's a good time to look back on who won what in 2024. Man U won the FA Cup. Liverpool won the Carling cup under Klopp.

Slot won nothing

If anyone was going to come on with a really dull, cliched post, it had to be you.

Well obviously

I’d say it’s still a wum, Term.

So dredging this up on NYE makes you look a bit silly, to say the least.

Amazing how you’ve been so badly affected by this.

Brilliant read this article.

Tbf it's looking more like Slot = Paisley. Straight after Klopp looking like Shankly.

We look like United after Busby with that wait for another Fergie.

And the funny thing is that era which begain in the 70's was not too dissimilar to what's happening now to both clubs.

Ffs!

The most bitter out of all United fans will be in bits right now.

Delicious.

You could be right, but still only halfway through and loads of time for things to go wrong.

Wumming aside, I think nearly every Liverpool fan is in shock at how well things have gone, no one could have predicted this. He’s gotten to the halfway point having lost one game in all competitions, not many managers have done that at any stage of their club careers.

There's no doubt he's doing very well. I think credit needs to be given to whoever did their homework at the club and recruited him. Genuinely never heard of the bloke before you appointed him. I don't blame any fan for thinking he'd flounder after Klopp, after all I was one of them!

The test will come when he needs to rebuild, but given you've got some good players coming through that may be a while. Possibly when it comes to replacing the likes of Salah or Van Dyke. Having said that, it'll probably be down to your DOF and others moreso?

I think at the moment it’s more evolution than revolution with our squad. There’s a decent balance between experience and younger players. If the rumours are true and Salah/VVD are going to sign two year deals then that will obviously help.

But yes, it’s always an unknown when it comes to a new manager buying players, but he’s already shown he’d rather buy no one if he can’t find the right player with our DM search in the summer.

I'm fairly sure both Salah and VVD will extend contracts. You've got a good crop of youth coming through or players that have come in over the past couple of years. It's definite evolution, not revolution needed. Reason I mentioned Salah and VVD is that even with the extra two years (which gives breathing space) the best managers know when to rebuild and it's often a ruthless approach. Age plays a factor regardless. If LFC are on the ball they won't be waiting for them to decline, but looking to address this in the next 12 months.

Not saying Pep is not a good manager but I think he's either rested on his laurels or been too loyal towards some of his players rather than being more ruthless even with some players considered to be pivotal to their success. And he's seeing the repurcussions this season imo.
