Liverpool had the most shots on goal in the Premier League this year, and most passes too I believe. So there football has been good standard, just poor defending and poor finishing by the sounds of it.
I think Houllier is not a well man. I think since the heart op he should of left football. Premier League standards are high and VERY stressful. If your not strong then you get a lot of pressure, and if you can't take the pressure you will crumble... and Liverpool and Houllier has done this... in my opinion.
Owen, Gerrad, Hyppia, Rise, Murphey, Kewell, Kirkland, Carragher... etc... there's good players there...
Liverpool are best off getting a manager that can spend money well, as Houllier killed the clubs progression by taking them backwards squad wise.
