That's definitely a wind-up.
RAWK Goes Into Meltdown (2011/2012)
- Thread starter Plan M
- Start date
Hahahaha. Unbelievable!
In fairness, a 1 nil loss away to the hostile crowd of Rangers isnt a bad result. Liverpool will surely take them in the away leg on Tuesday 16th October, 2012!
Reading through the Andy Carroll thread:
"I really rate Andy personally. I think the 35m will turn out money well spent. I think he's a better talent than all of Berbatov, Dzeko & Gomez and went for a comparable price considering English player inflation."
which was met by
"Ridiculous comment, he's absolutely nowhere near the level of Mario Gomez, not even close."
Delusion at its best.

Well, he quite clearly is. How else can you explain Mario Gomez scoring something like 65 goals in 75 games since the start of last season, while Carroll has a grand total of 15 goals in the same period? Hehe.
Record in all competitions. Gomez' record in the Champions League is quite good as well.Poorer oppositions in the Bundesliga?
Better than Gomez 
Unbelievable Jeff
Unbelievable JeffI wonder what they think about the £7m we spent on Hernandez
Just offering an excuse for the Scousers.
Personally I think Gomez is worth 10 times more than Carroll.
Gomez wouldn't have missed that header Carroll did near the end.
9th most expensive player of all time
I never tire winding my Scouse mates up about that.

About Suarez:
WTF

Those three are all comfortably better players than Carroll is. Half a good season in the league doesn't make him at all comparable to Dzeko, Berbatov or Gomez.
Reading through this thread I really do not know whether they are taking the piss or are really THAT stupid. Some of their comments are just astonishingly delusional. Great stuff though, haven't laughed this hard for a while!
There is quite a bit of questioning of Dalglish's tactics and (non) use of subs/using them too late.
RIP that man's login.
was wondering when someone will start on kin kenny

Jesus, they actually believe that he's a better dribbler than Messi. The "Messi gets lucky with the bounce of the ball" comment is outrageous
Yup
horrible bunch of game raising twats...
Kenny is just 4 points above Woy to be fair. After outspending him by a good 100 million or so.
Yep. Try saying that at RAWK.
Hodgson
Played 31 Won 13 Drawn 9 Lost 9 Win% 41.94
Dalglish
Played 34 Won 17 Drawn 8 Lost 9 Win% 50.00
This doesn't differentiate between League and Cup games, which might skew it a bit, but they're fairly similar. I'd expect Dalglish to be doing better considering he's had massive backing from the fans, the board, the players, whereas Hodgson had none of those.

West Brom's record signing cost 1/7 of Andy Carroll, a sub, and he has since moved on.
Dalglish will never get called up on this, but he's massively underperforming given the massive financial backing he's had.
Try telling that to a dipper though.

RAWK and all other LFC-fans can feck off for all I care. Wankers the lot of them
On the contrary, their post-match thread contains many references to Andy Carroll's value and what he has done so far. Kenny is also in for some criticism.
Dissenting voices are getting louder.

Long? He's still with WBA. Unless by "moved on" you mean in terms of his progress?
I thought Valero cost more than Long, but I must be wrong.
The usual defence of this is pointing out that Woy's stats are juiced by easy wafer cup games.
Still, though, for all the money and backing "KK" has had that must make uncomfortable reading for Liverpool fans/owners.
Hehe
So, I just watched the game on MOTD. I saw Suarez miss a bunch of sitters. If this asshole could finish Liverpool might have a chance.
That's absolutely staggering. Do they only watch Liverpool games & some occasional Messi highlights then?...Incredible delusion. 10/10.
As for.
They had at least 3 in the last 10 minutes alone.

It's a good point, but even so, Hodgson was up against it from day one, taking over from the popular Benitez appointed by the evil Americans, most of the Liverpool fans didn't want him, and after about a month they were chanting for him to be replaced. Dalglish was in a far more favourable situation, loved by the fans, symbol of hopes and dreams and a glorious past, all the myths about Ferguson being terrified of him, and a £100m+ transfer budget, funded by the sale of players who weren't performing anyway, it's no surprise there was an improvement.
I seriously doubt he'll be able to maintain it though, Liverpool's transfer moves under him have been absolutely extraordinary, the club will be bankrupt the way he's going, and 4th place is a fairly ambitious aim considering the strength of Arsenal and particularly Spurs.
If your extrapolate Kenny's form then it gives about 65 points by the season's end, which is probably about right for their level.
I still cannot get my head around how KKenny could want to pay 35 mill for Caroll. He seems to have started his "reign" with an incredible lack of judgement.
Watching the game today, I was gobsmacked with his lack of inventiveness, especially with his subs.
I wonder what the odds are for him making it to the end of next season, even with the KK factor. A few more poor results and the knives will be out after the money he's spent?

What gets me when talking to dippers and you mention the Carroll fee, the pre-programmed reaction is to mention Suarez's fee as defence.
So, bizarrely, if you mix both fees it's somehow ok.
Dippernomics.
