Kenny got sacked for defending Suarez not for failing to win the FA cup or our league position...
Liverpool chairman Tom Werner has admitted it was a tough decision, but ultimately one that needed to be made.
"Kenny came into the club as manager at our request at a time when Liverpool really needed him. He didn't ask to be manager; he was asked to assume the role.
"He did so because he knew the club needed him. He did more than anyone else to stabilize Liverpool over the past year-and-a-half and to get us once again looking forward. We owe him a great debt of gratitude.
"However, results in the Premier League have been disappointing and we believe to build on the progress that has already been made, we need to make a change.
They could be just a shower of lying cu*ts tho.
Still they then got "their man" and bought themselves another three years.

Anyhows... back on topic.
I know Jürgen appeared to dismiss the idea of a high number of signings but the truth is: he's not averse to signing huge numbers of players himself.
Funds permitting we could easily be looking at even bigger numbers than under the previous regime.
I know that 'big numbers' should not go down well with some fans (given their 'previous' on the subject) but I suspect it might be forgiven.
The truth is; Jürgen's 'numbers' at Dortmund, dwarf Brendan's and make them look reserved...
* 1st season - 17 sold, 13 signed.
* 2nd season - 8 sold, 14 signed. And...
* 3rd season - 12 sold, 12 signed [along with the title
]
The Summer window could be the biggest, numerically, in years - even bigger than "Brendan's" shopping spree last year.
I can't wait.
