Nah, they're doing pretty poor for the amount of money they spent. They're lucky Spurs and Newcastle have had horrible seasons too. Though it's never right to sack a manager after one season unless he's done a terrible job - which Sven hasn't.

QUOTE (kurtsimonw @ Apr 29 2008, 01:09 AM) Apparently Sven had a meeting with the owner earlier today. The general consensus is that he's been given the boot. Stupid mistake by the owners in my opinion, a manager can't work miracles in one year - Unless he's Jose Mourinho.

Liverpool have made a £10m bid for Gareth Barry it has been confirmed.
What little respect I had for Rafa/Liverpool is all but gone now. £10m? Are they taking the p!ss, Carrick and Hargreaves both went for £18m, and Barry's a better play than both of them! The timing of the bid is unfair as well. WHo on earth makes a bid for a player when that players team has two crucial games coming up? Talk about lack of consideration. But it's not just that, why make the offer public? Also, Barry has said he wants to know what the managers plans are for the future and see which players he brings in, this season hasn't even finished, so we haven't started to buy players for next year, do Liverpool not understand these things? For £10m they can f*ck off, and if I was MON, I'd put in a £10m bid for Gerrard, see how they like it. |

QUOTE Martin O'Neill on Liverpools' Barry bid. "To say I'm disappointed would be a massive understatement," he said. "I had a fax on Thursday afternoon. It was signed as a pp on behalf of the chief executive. I've not had time yet to answer it formally." "There was no £10m cash offer. It was an offer of cash plus a mishmash of nameless players. I've disregarded it. However, there is the possibility of me faxing back and saying I'd consider a cash deal for Fernando Torres and Steven Gerrard — although it might be the case that they don't want to leave Liverpool." "You know, Aston Villa Football Club has ambitions. For us to break into the Champions League demands very good players." "And letting our very best players go is not what we want to do. We don't want to be a feeder club. We don't want to let people go. Gareth Barry is one of our very, very best players." "I've spoken to (Villa owner) Randy Lerner about it. He's disappointed. Actually, to say that he was disappointed would be an understatement, too." "This is a deliberately unsettling tactic. Is it disrespectful? Absolutely, it's been very disruptive." "I wanted to talk about our drive and determination tomorrow to win a game of football against Wigan Athletic. And instead I'm talking about this." "I want to build a team. I watched Liverpool at Chelsea on Wednesday night. I have sampled some great Champions League nights with Celtic." "That's where you want to be. Anyone worth their salt wants to be involved in that. And we have a better chance of achieving it with the likes of Gareth in the team." "I shall be speaking to Liverpool about it. I'm disappointed in them. When I was younger they were the one club where you never got a thing out of them until it was done." "It's not the way you want to be conducting business. It is not the way the Liverpool of old used to do business." ... O'Neill added: "We have two really important games left. And I thought Gareth had made it clear he was waiting until the end of the season." "Come that time, I shall be sitting down with him. I would want him to stay. I've known him for two years and he doesn't strike me as the kind of man who would be breaking his contract." "So, we have much to discuss. But I think it's maybe time to say that the chairman and I share the same ambitions." "I know the fans do. First, we want European football. We are two games away. We have a great possibility of finishing in the top six. That would, to me, represent terrific progress." "Then we will be in position to compete for the very best players. This is the whole idea. And Gareth Barry is one of them." Mail On Sunday Mr O'Neill does not seem impressed at all. Liverpool have decreased their chances of getting Barry by a long shot, I think our club lost alot of respect for Liverpool today. I'm sure we'll look at other offers first now.

Why do Liverpool need another CM? It's unbelievable...
Mascherano, Alonso and Gerrard are not enough? Plus Lucas. And to me he's not better than any of the first 3. Far away from the world-class. Liverpool needs wingers. Not CM's. This post has been edited by Porty: May 3 2008, 12:27 AM |

Good comments from him.

Just some random info: If Arsenal win or draw against Everton that means we have gone through an entire season without losing at home, and only lost 1 of 55 home matches at Emirates.

And to me he's not better than any of the first 3. Far away from the world-class. Liverpool needs wingers. Not CM's. Barry's not better than Gerrard, no way. But the other 3? He's not as good defensively as Macherano, but he's a whole lot better going forward, and while Lucas may be great in the future, Barry is better now. As for Alonso.. he's been a joke this season. But as you said CMs are the last thing they need. None of their FBs are playing very well, they need somebody at CB to backup Carra & Skertl - Hyypia isn't good enough in my opinion. They need some wingers and a partner for Torres - Rafa doesn't seem to rate Crouch or Voronin, and Kuyt is now a winger, apparently. Even Reina in goal has been poor this season, too many mistakes, and alot of goals he's let in are bad errors - beaten at near post, etc. And Locke, Arsenal had better beat Everton! As for that one loss.. West Ham of all teams. Bobby Zamora of all scorers! (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) |

Man U 1-0 West Ham after 20 minutes.
Wes Brown clearly hands the ball inside the penalty area, the ref don't care... |

Gosh. A straight red for Nani for a headbutt. Even if it is 3-1 United by this point.
