As soon as lucas was injured alot of my hope of 4th dashed
Lucas' injury has been the biggest blow to us this season. He offered a base for the front 5 to attack from. I've only seen us play like this when spearing has played as he does a similar job. Even stoke tried to pressure jay deep to try stop him starting off our attacks on Sunday. Can't wait for Lucas to come back, I never thought I would say that 18 months ago I had finally given up on him then he threw it right back in my face with his performances on the pitch, I've never been so happy to be wrong
Spearing has played well the last 2 games, really missing lucas he mopped up everything

KD is your weak link imo
I think KD has your blokes figured out!
Nice post, it outlines what a lot of us have been saying about why we're in transition and the old cliche of a 'work in progress', which is why the outrageous calls for Kenny to be sacked really made me laugh. I thought it was well known that Kenny wasn't expected to transform the team completely in a season, although I think he has done that. I know that sounds funny given our current league position and home form but I honestly think we're a transformed team from hodgsons time. Our attitude on the pitch seems to have changed, we had crap performances to match the results under hodgson and it showed on the players, body language suggested that they were unhappy. Under kenny people look like they want to play again.
Of course there are things out of KDs control, no one has mentioned suarez being out for 8 games, that's hurt us too, probably as much as lucas.
Its not just on the field that these new faces have come in.
The backroom staff from owners to coaches have changed. The whole club needs atleast one whole season together to see how we fair off.
However next season is big for the team on the pitch. And that includes Kenny. If the same continues next season then Kenny will have to stand up and take blame, regardless of how much is spent this summer.

What's been wrong with this season? Absolutely nothing.
apart from the finishing, we have played good football in most games, just been unfortunate.
If we can sort out the end product in games and get a decent striker in and a proper winger for the right, we have a good chance of top 4 next season.
"What's been wrong with this season? Absolutely nothing."
Tactics have been wrong. Especially against the bottom half teams
TheWhiteWall, thank you, once again for your opinion, much appreciated, whatever it was. Now, where was I? Oh yes, changing the subject matter completely to that of football, and LFC in particular, while I agree that changes will be made, I hope they are kept to a minimum. Let's just make one buy, say, Hazard, and that will do for me. Alternatively, Kenny and Damien might do better than look within the UK for talent, and there's lots of it about, and it could be cheaper than Eden, who would cost both arms and legs.but please Kenny, keep it to a minimum.

No they are not. How can having such a huge amount of shots and corners be deemed as a wrong tactic?
We have dominated all bar about 5 games this season. How is that a bad tactic?
We play better football than we have for years. How is that a bad tactic?
We have won a cup and are in the semi of another. How is that a bad tactic?

Hazard? To Liverpool

(Having huge amount of shots from outside the box does not constitute as a chance created. Especially when the shot is made because there is no other option)
We have dominated all bar about 5 games this season. How is that a bad tactic? (I'll give you that Our passing has improved drastically but in terms of creating clear cut chances, we are still lacking quality in the final third. This is most noteable against the smaller teams)
We play better football than we have for years. How is that a bad tactic? (See above)
We have won a cup and are in the semi of another. How is that a bad tactic? (Celebrated the cup like everyone else but we do seem to be targetting the cups more this season)
Overall, dont get me wrong, we have improved but there is still a lot of work needed. A lot more than some think.
I don't see it that way really. I think the squad that KD took on was the orst one that I have seen in my lifetime really.
Everyone talks about how much we have spent but the clubs above us had far stronger squad and half of those spent more than us in the summer.
I don't really see what KD could have done better really.
Its shameful when the some LFC fans criticise Kenny with the "he spent 100mil this summer", yet the same fans will defend Rafa and his net spend.
Guess you have that bad bunch at every club.
For me, how much we spend is not in the slightest bit important; 5 million or 150 million spend on players doesn't matter diddly.
What is important is the players that the money is spent on.
To be honest, I don't watch a match and think how much the players cost. I am more concerned if they are playing well or not, if they are quality or not, if they are giving their best every game they play for the team and the fans or not.
yet the same fans will defend Rafa and his net spend.
he spent about 10mil person of actually money
