By simple I meant this management lark is easy. Not that Joe Cole should play behind Reina.

Phil Babb was good when he was on form
I disagree
He was never the same after the incident with the goalpost
He went from shit to really shit?
Wont argue with u
Spot on.
Wouldn't have argued anyway because nothing will ever change my opinion on Babb. I despised watching him play.
Although I did see him play in the Masters once and he was half decent
Phil Babb made me cringe on a regular basis. He should have taught us never to buy players based on a decent showing in an international tournament, but Houllier obviously wasn't paying attention at the time.
Was it not Roy Evans who signed Babb?
It was, but I was talking about Diouf and Diao.
Yup it was.
Babb was captain of Coventry before coming to us and as said had a superb World cup.
I wonder if was it was the culture at the time at the club, that destroyed him as a player, as up till him coming to us he looked like an excellent prospect

Maybe 5 at the back contributed?
I dunno.
He certainly didn't seem to be the consummate professional.
With the likes of Ruddock in the side to guide him I think there was probably only one way to go for a young player of his nature
Ah right.
Maybe, but I still think McGrath made him look better than he really was. He may also have contributed to his downfall for the reasons you gave.
With an avatar like that, I just dunno if I can believe you!
Ice pick: Sigurdsson has decided to follow Rodgers to Anfield
Swansea's Icelandic loan-star will join Liverpool for around £7m - but wants to explain himself to the Welsh club's new boss first
Gylfi Sigurdsson WILL join Liverpool, but not before he has offered Swansea the courtesy of meeting their new manager.
The Iceland international, who made such an impact on loan at the Liberty Stadium last season, has made clear his desire to go to Anfield following the appointment of Swansea manager Brendan Rodgers as the new boss.
The attacking midfielder had all but agreed a permanent £6.8million move from Hoffenheim to Swansea at the end of the season, but didn’t sign the deal as it became clear Rodgers was being courted by the Merseyside club.
Sigurdsson confirmed last week that he was having second thoughts about a move to Wales from the German club.
Now he is set to link up again with Rodgers, becoming his first Liverpool signing for a fee similar to the one that would have taken him to Swansea.
But he wants to show respect to to the Swans by meeting their new manager first, to explain his situation.
Swans chairman Huw Jenkins has been busy looking for Rodgers' replacement and is expected to unveil a new manager within the next week, with former Denmark star Michael Laudrup the overwhelming favourite.
Rodgers, meanwhile, has been busy drawing up a list of transfer targets since arriving at Anfield.
Midfielder Momo Diame, a free agent now his Wigan contract has expired, and Uruguay midfielder Gaston Ramirez of Bologna have both been the subject of inquiries.

Yeah yeah we get it Gylfi ................. your a decent guy and Swansea are a nice little club, now stop fucking wasting time and sign up
This guy is defo being signed to take the weight of Gerrard's shoulders.
It would be naive and unfair to think he'll prove to be anywhere near as good but he's a similar type of player - great awareness, skillful and loves to get a goal fro midfield.
We're crying out for an attacking midfielder who offers a big goal threat and is ready to go straight into the team. With Henderson and Shelvey, it's all promise and potential, with Sigurdsson that's thankfully not the case.
