yup. no place for Wenger or the AKB's to hide - thats why i'd prefer Liverpool to win. so that that lot shut up about "no money from the board" and "he built a stadium"....Offside wrote: It also means there'll be no hiding place for Wenger, if a relative novice like Rodgers can take Liverpool from 7th to 1st and beat the "financially doped" powerhouses of Man City and Chelsea.
I think its better for the future of our great club if Liverpool win it cos it will mean some people will finally realize the amount of bull shit they've been fed the last 4-5 years and push the owners and board to make changes.
ie. its not only about money but about hard work on the training ground, preparation, tactics, flexibility, humility, an eagerness to learn by trial and error, the ability to take advice from others and work as a team. i.e. pretty much what it takes any successful business this days....
Look at Liverpools set up :

opposition analyst, performance analyst, Head of technical analysis, coach AND manager for the Reserves, separate fitness coaches and physios for the reserves, Director of Football strategy, Director of player Development - all IN ADDITION to the same managers, scouts and coaches we have :

i bet if i look at City, Chelsea and Bayern, Real Madrid etc they are set up the same way.
We are a Dinosaur now. The football world has passed us by, maybe the vicious knifing scallys winning might lead the owners to see that ?
i'd take a year of gloating plastic scousers if it meant we moved into the 21st Century.
