Liverpool will have to spend really big, and this time they will need to buy quality players.
My question is: does Benitez really know what he's doing, when it comes to buying players ? I'm beginning to have my doubts. Ever since he's been at Anfield he's bought unknown players who, in most cases, didn't make the difference.
Why don't they try to create a couple of their own players for a change? In the long run it's more productive. Trouble is most of the rich clubs want all and want it now. The result is absolutely exaggerated expenses with little or no return.
You jokers know little or nothing, though Ajax72 is right about the biggest clubs snapping up the talent: that's what happens when the game becomes a part of the entertainment industry.
Benitez has spent less than half of what Chelsea's spent over the time he's been at LFC, and around half of his signings have been at least moderately successful, which is about par for the course. A very young reserve team won the northern reserve league and the north/south championship, so younger talent is coming along. Rafa is in it for the long haul, he has a plan that allows him to cope with the greater spending power of Chelsea and Man U, if the owners will let him.
The situation he has to deal with is objectively difficult (Man U and Chelsea have strong, expensive squads and lots of money to play with; Wenger has an excellent eye for talent, though not the money of Chelsea and Man U). Rafa may not put LFC over the top, but the idea that he is the obstacle is foolish beyond belief, and could be held only by someone willing to ignore, or just ignorant of, the reality of the situation.
Rafa is a great fit fo LFC, i think he doesn't need big names, he needs motivated players.
LFC need a new defense line, and one more wing, and they could be a title contender next season.

I agree with BesTalentScout: Benitez is the problem and he's got to go. Liverpool will otherwise not achieve anything.ajax72 May 14th, 2008 17:50
