Did we not finish that season in our worst position for over 10 years maybe longer ? Yep we won the league cup which was great but the league was shocking.
Was it not the right choice to move forward - I think the mistake was giving him the job after he filled when Hodgson left but that time they probably imo were swayed by the fans love and support for Kenny. I believe Kenny also had the same belief
They have "Sacked Kenny Dalglish" on their cv. For a Liverpool board, the very idea is unpalatable in itself. We know why the league ended up as it did. Gerrard was out for the first half of the season. Lucas was out for the second half. Suarez had to take a break in the middle. They were all here the following season, while Kenny took the blame for everything. After that, I knew they didn't understand the club.
Until Jürgen arrived, we were usually finishing in the UEFA Cup spots. Even with him in charge, that's where we are atm. There was a 7 year gap between winning the League Cup and our next trophy. All under their watch.
The next few weeks on the field are going to be painful. Aside from hoping to finish above West Ham, taking points off the mancs will probably mean handing our crown over, or hoping Chelsea lose to City which will probably mean handing our crown over. That's what our season has turned into.
What will they do over the summer to change it? They would be far better preparing to spend money on new players, than preparing to waste it on legal fines over a Super League that was never going to happen in the first place. It was physically impossible to play without UEFA approval, and if they weren't aware of that fact beforehand, they should have been.
He accepted all the responsibility for the events during the week. In that case, he should resign from his position. As a club, we haven't had a lower public image since 1985. That took years to patch up. Our players are being confronted in their dressing room, outside stadiums, our name is being dragged through the mud, and it's all because of him. That isn't going to stop because he's released a video. Assuming they won't sell up, I'm sure the group can find a more responsible man to help us rebuild our image again.
