The Liverpool team which would win the league (circa man utd team of 90's)

The LFC team to win the league

Think about it in terms of manure's typical late 90s team and how we can match up player for player, given we play exactly the same tactics:

....................................Dudek/Scmeichel

Babbel/Neville.....Hyppia/Stam........Henchoz/Silvestre........Riise/Neville

Gerard/Becks..........Hamann/Keane......Cheyrou/Scholes.......Diouf/Giggs

.......................Owen/Van Nistelrooy...... Heskey/Cole

Baros/Solksjaer
Murphy/Butt

look at that team? can you honestly say that man utd's team is vastly better????

Think about it! If we only played positively, we can murder teams in a 4-4-2 played to a carbon copy of 90s manure. i don't like to accord them too much but if we want to dominate the next decade, sad to say, we'll have to learn something from them. now, we have the kind of team that can match what they had - man for man. in some areas, we're even better (riise, in particular).

 

moi?

why do you say that?

if your gonna criticise me..at least back it up with facts/reasons

it will make you look much more commendable

 

well...according to "statistics" liverpool are the most successful club of this millenium so far with 5 trophies

and do i even need to mention the 4 european cups?

na didnt think so

 

just for those dim wits out there i will clarify my original post

i wasnt suggesting liverpool buy schemichal, keane,giggs, beckham etc to win the league

i was merely comparing the man utd team of the late 90's (of the treble era) with liverpools team of 2002

and seeing how they match up (thats correct...the liverpool team is on the left hand of the equation and the man utd team on the right hand side)

get it now?

 

also if your team is soo much better than ours..how come we finished ahead of you?

[insert lame-ass manure excuse here]

 

Re: Re: The Liverpool team which would win the league (circa man utd team of 90's)

then take off your rose tinted specs

 

the point i was trying to make was that we have the players and the ability to really hurt teams if GH chose to do so (rather than defend defend defend all the time)

i was merely using manures treble winning team as an example...i thought by comparing player like for like...it would give some LFC fans real hope that "yes...this teams good enough to win the league!"

if i was giving the impression that "lets copy manure" then i apologise (must work on my wording )

face it....12 years is too long for the tradition of our great club

 

you spent £50m last season and won fcuk all

i think Slur Alex Ferguscum would swap our "poor mans treble" for that!

 

yeah yeah i have heard it all before mate...premiership my @rse...winning the league is winning the league whether its called the division 1 championship, the premiership or the mcdonalds world series. i couldnt care less....we've won it 18 times..u still playing catch up

according to manure fans...football was invented in 1993 - when man utd started winning everything

i got news for you...it didnt

*shock* *horror* how will you get through the days??!!!

lmfao @ this manc

 

oooh

big words from the manc
hit a nerve did i?

dont worry im sure you will have the last laugh at the end of the coming season

you will be able to tell me you spent £80m in 2 years AND still won nothing!

i'll be gutted... "why couldnt liverpool do that?"

 

Re: Liverpool team to not win the league

i agree with your assesment of liverpool style of play (look at the barmby thread for my opinion on this matter)

but i disagree with you on several things

1. Gerrards best position may be central but i dont see any current players in the lfc squad who could do a better job than gerrard on the right...wheras we have plenty of players who could take Gerrards position in the centre

2. You may laugh at Heskey (who wouldnt?) but dont forget he scored 20+ goals in the treble season..he justs needs the service from midfield and GH must make him play more centrally and further up front

3. Liverpool may have spent a considerable amount of money but remember one thing - when Wenger took over at Highbury..he had already inherited a decent attack (Wright, Bergkamp etc) and a very good defense (the famous back 5) from GG...he just built on this. When Houllier took over at Liverpool..we were nothing - a completely shambolic "spiceboy" team and he had to spend money to completely rebulid the team

 

yeah your so funny

i suppose you dont know what the league cup was called before you won it in 1993?

well..do you?

whoops sorry my mistake..if it happened before 1993..it didnt happen at all did it?

 

yeah, like the last five times you met us



its been so long.. i've almost forgotten what its like to lose to manure!

refresh my memory plz
