I think FSG always had this in mind. They get rid of the older higher paid players, particularly when we are not winning anyway (the league that is). They BR in to manage the transition of the youth players. We were lucky that Rafa, Borrell etc had us in such good shape in the youth department. I think that we will build up our economic base again and then they will invest in a stadium. We need momentum to keep going. Of course we lost Kuyt, Maxi, Aurelio, Carroll etc but it's not like Borini, Sahin, Allen are crap especially when BR knows two of them so well. The thing I like is we have got potential on the wings, which we have seemed to struggle with in latter years, coming from the youth. The fact that Borrell has them playing in the fashion that Rodgers wants is good planning. The thing that also I like is that the midfield and defence have youth prospects galore coming through. All we need is another Owen, Fowler, Rush to come through or we do what every other b***ard does and spend a fortune on a great goal scorer.
