Capello and Mourinho are the only ones that have the right profile.
I wanted them after Houiller. That hasnt changed.[/quote]
You really wanted Mourinho based on one run in the UCL and his record in Portugal over Rafa and his record in Europe AND La Liga? What did you like most? His ability to woo the media? Wait, you probably didn't follow the Portuguese League, so you had no clue. Did you like his attacking play based on the 10-20 games or so you watched Porto play in Europe? Capello I can get but Mourinho? The only reason most of us wanted him here was what he did to Fergie and the two runs he had in Europe with Porto ... Rafa had just as an impressive record and his teams played wonderful footy most of the time.

I'm not convinced by Maureen either, Wiz.
There's nothing in Europe that Maureen has done that Rafa hasn't.
But that's kind of the point, it's the 2 titles he's won for the Chavs that we're hoping he can emulate.
I don't know if he can ever win 19 for us; but I know Rafa never will.

When he won with the Chavs, he had the code for the Premiership Manager cheat for unlimited funds, unfortunately, we don't posess that here in Liverpool, and there was only really Man united to beat at the time, Arsenal were in decline and won fuck all since then, we actually finished above them more that under them. ( we are a big 3 team under Rafa not a big 4), unfortunatley time have changed Arsenal are getting stronger Man City have the cheat code for the unlimited funds, and Spurs and Aston Villa are in the mix too, could Maureen do it? I doubt it.
I think we are fucked until we get big bucks to spend on big players. Under G&H we have to sell to buy, and we can only really get one good player a season, not the 3 or 4 we actually need to get on Par with the teams challenging.

Careful Asbo, you'll be labelled a superfan with that post.
