Time to pull the plug on Poch and save what we can.

Top 4 is on, Chelsea will dip do will Leicester we will improve.
Some people thought not spending was a good idea and wanted to see us rely on promoting youth.We chose not to spend because of our stadium, which was a gamble depending on us retaining CL status. If we fail to get CL this year we would have to rebuild the squad without being able to attract CL level calibre of players or managers, which makes the decision not to spend look even more stupid. Some players may start getting their heads turned too and we will end up signing mediocre players hoping to get back into the CL again....
Who should we appoint, Baz.Only if we sack Poch
You think "NOBODY" on here would have wanted us to sign Allison, Firmino, Wijnaldum or Fabinho?Here’s all the players from Liverpool’s first team that NOBODY here would have wanted when they were available.
Allison
Roberston
Arnold (if he was offered to us from their academy)
Henderson
Firminho
Matip
Wijnaldum
Fabinho
WAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH
WAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
THEY BOUGHT ALL THE WORLD CLASS PLAYERS IN THE WORLD WAAAAAAHHHHH
We warned of storms ahead. They told us "who do you drop", "spending ££ like city is a waste of time", Liverpool are crap", "LEEDS!".Some people thought not spending was a good idea and wanted to see us rely on promoting youth.
Others, although not supporting it, still tried to justify it.
A few, like me, predicted the fucking mess that's unfolding before our eyes today.
If 2 English clubs offered a player a similar wage they would 99% of the time choose the team that’s consistently been in the CL compared to the team playing Europa or not in Europe at all
CL alone doesn’t define a club.
Liverpool missed out on a few occasions recently..Didn’t do them any harm..
YouI also think he's struggling to figure out who he could attract that would be willing to work under his constraints.
If Poch goes, it'll be an Eddie Howe type. Happy to take the glamour of managing Spurs but unlikely to ever come near the heights reached by Pochettino.
If Levy had backed his man when he was crying out for it last Summer, we wouldn't even be having this conversation.
