first of all let me start by congratulating the boys on hard fought win this morning.
this leads me to why im pissed off... its all these commentators that seem to have it in for liverpool.
its as if all commentators rally together every week and decide on a new angle to attack liverpool from. the worst part of it is, its all unfounded pointless drivel...
statements like 'with the amount liverpool have spent they really should have a better squad'... STUPID.
out of all the players that benitez inherited from houllier, only gerrard and carragher remain. that means that all the money that benitez received from the sale of past players (which with such a crap bunch of players, wouldnt have been a lot) he used to rebuild the squad. granted the squad arnt world beaters as of yet, but didnt one of the greatest mangers (if not the greatest manger) the EPL has ever seen take 4/5 years to win a single title at the beginning of his tenor??
granted this crop of players arnt the worlds elite, but when benitez buys he sells in equal measure to fund his purchases.
wors still people saying he dosnt sign quality!!
is this a joke??!!
let me list some quality player he has signed over the years, that when negotiations were being made where considered inquisitive signings...
torres- this by far his greatest signing. he was in fact ridiculed for wanting to pay such an astronomical figure for a player that 'needs to many chances to score.' it was only after he proved his class that every man and his dog was saying he was an obvious signing... MUPPETS!!!
such an obvious signing that even SAF (sir alex ferguson for the noobs) didnt want him instead seekin out berbatoss...even chelsea with all their money didnt put a bid in for him or try to snare our bid...
glen johnson- some may say the verdict is out on him but in the small amount of time he's been on the pitch for us he's proven an attacking threat and a defensive rock. one of the bes right backs in england.
yossi benayoun- by far the most talented player in the squad with the ball at his feet. once again people were asking why buy a player who, at the time, was playing for a mid table club (west ham). he has proven to be the x- factor on more then one occasion for us and even popped up with very important goals for us in ECL.
mascherano- is there any better DM/ destroyer in the EPL?? i think not, yet alen pardew didnt even think he was worth of a place in a west ham starting eleven.
these are just a few players i can rattle off, off the top of my head.
benitez has spent a lot money to build the squad he currently has, he has also had to sacrifice the services of many. with a fraction of the budget of the other 'big four clubs' benitez has managed to keep liverpool in the top 4 every season bar one.
we should be applauding the man for this great feet no scorning him for not spending non existent money.
