Season`s a coming
I love the Summer but life ain`t perfect and the only thing wrong with Summer is no proper footy!I don`t count the Olympics footy, or the Euros, even the World Cup! Why? Becuse I`m Once a Red always a Red. Liverpool FC don`t play in these competitions.Simple just like Shanks said. Footy is a simple game overcomplicated by coaches.friendlies bore the pants off me , except the last friendly which is really just a chance for the squad to say hello to the fans before the real business end of the footy commences. A decent win against Gomel has set us up nicely this season. A good run out next Thursday followed by the Leverkusen game on the Sunday is just what the Doctor ordered.
I`m fast getting withdrawal symptoms. Every new season brings renewed hope. That`s the beauty of football. It don`t matter how much cash Chelski,Shiteh,Manure or Arsewank have spent (didn`t mention Spurs cos don`t even count them stalkers)we can still believe that last season was just bad luck . And so it was to to a degree. In hindsight the signings of Carroll, Downing , Henderson all have turned out poor in terms of our league position. This season however we will have Leiva back, Gerrard not struggling for fitness, the addition of Borini and possibly Allen and Dempsey. I remember last season not as a failure though. that`s cos I`m a real supporter. To get to the two domestic cup finals is something only teams can aspire too that`s why I was never as pessimistic as some of the died in the wool spoilt cry babies that want to spend £25m at the drop of a hat if we are outside the top four.If that Andy Carroll header had counted against Chelsea we would have won the FA Cup and Carroll would have been a God.I still think Carroll has a lot to contribute to this squad and don`t want to see him leave. He is just now starting to show what he is capable of. forget the fee. the fee was over inflated due to the circumstances of the transfer and is meaningless. Carroll , Borini, Suarez and Dempsey would be a very useful strike force to have. A few more goals from the midfield wouldn`t go amiss next season as were were woefully lacking in that department.
It is a fine line between success and failure. We played some great stuff at times last season and remember we played against most teams who had an extra man (woodwork) and of course against Manure 13 men (Howard the Duck Webb)
The new manager has a big taskon his hands. I`m not talking about getting top four or winning the league. His tough task is the daily management of an institution. With all due respect to Swansea and Reading, they ain`t Liverpool. I think he will be ok. I think the Reds will have a good season this year without taking the Prem by storm.Then again I think that every season. Why? Because I`m a REAL supporter. remember.
