just to reiterate
10 titles in 20 years = awesome
2 CL in 20 years = underachievement
that's how I see it, feel free to laugh some more.
sir bob
6 league titles

Well how many of our 10 would you class as major trophys?

what do you mean by that? basically you looked at the list of cups we've won in the past 20 years and bascially dismissed them as we hadn't won the league (harsh in the extreme). the truth is we have underachieved in the league, in the past 20 years how many times have we genuinely challenged for the title? you can count it on one hand but that doesn't make the other cups won worthless.
Houllier and Benitez are equal for me. I don't see a vast gulf between them, as they both did a lot of good for the club but also made big and defining mistakes.
Evans is way behind, because he couldn't even spell defence and was blessed with some good attacking talent.
I'm too young to remember Souness. In fact I'm too young to properly analyse Evens as a coach, but that's what I remember of it.

A lot of fans dismiss the League and FA Cups nowadays. How often do people call out for the kids to be played in these games. Im not dismissing the 10 Trophys won, I am indicating the importance of the league and how we have not won it in 20 years. The CL and the only major League are major trophys as far as im concerned.
