Are Liverpool fans the most stupid, uneducated fans on this earth?
1 comments Posted by Arsenal F. C. Community at Thursday, January 17, 2008The answer is clearly YES. Outside of the obvious (mourning a dead chicken) they go on the radio every night and just embarrass themselves.
They support Benitez, calling him a tactical genius and abuse the Americans, saying that they need to put more cash in. But lets look at the FACTS.
Firstly with regards to the money. The idiot that is Benitez moaned after we beat them 6-3 that they lost because he was not able to spend big on youngsters (he would rather pay big wages for Robbie Fowler then get in a couple of youths). The board then gave him the money to buy youngsters like Lucas, Leto and Babel (total £24.m, more then our first 11!). They backed him! They let him buy the youngster's he felt could rival ours!
Then in November, he moans that the board are not giving him the money to buy established stars. But wait a minute, in the summer, he spent £56.95m. Surely this is backing your manager???
So despite them backing the manager with the funds he wanted for the players he wanted, he is still moaning. And the Scousers are backing there manager! Any smart fan would be saying 'he has spent £57m this summer, surely he wouldve got the players he wanted.'
Now we go onto my second point. Benitez's performance as a manager. Since he joined Liverpool, he has spent £84m NET. That is £76m more then arsenal and £4m more then United. Yet he is still saying he needs more, he is still saying he hasn't got the players he wants. The man has bought 32 players since he joined Liverpool. How many does he want? 100? 200? And what makes it ever more hilarious is the Liverpool have not gone forward. hey are 12 points behind the league leaders. Further away then they were under Houllier!
Another interesting point, out of the 32 players who he has signed, 12 have already been sold, and another 4 (Carson, Sissoko, Crouch, Mascherano) might be gone by the summer. So over 3 years, he has had a 50% staff turnover. Anyone who knows about business would agree that this is high!
Yet the Scousers still back there underachieving, overspending, manager.
The final nail in the coffin. I hear on the radio tonight one mong saying 'we want the Americans to sell the club so that Benitez can get the money he needs AND we can build a new stadium.' Wait a minute? So you are telling me they want to do a Chelsea? Despite abusing the Russians for years about buying the title, they want to do the same. Rather then go the Arsenal way (loans, save money, spend little, build stadium) they want it all in one go. They want Benetiz to be able to spend big (£70million a season maybe?) and at the same time, a new £400million stadium built. Now for the facts. Arsenal spent £11m NET since we started building the stadium. Thats £1.8m a year over 6 years.
How will Liverpool fans react? How will Benitez react? If they cut spending to build the stadium? The idiots want their cake and eat it, and it is all the Americans who are to blame. The two businessmen. The two man in Liverpool who can see how much Benitez has spent, can see his lack of progression, and who know how much the new stadium is going to cost.
And what sums it all up? The Scousers welcomed the Americans with open arms saying that they would make Liverpool the biggest club in the world.
Heres another fact for you, the ONLY reason Benitez is still in a job is because he is waiting to be pushed. A nice compensation package for Benitez and his staff, all money which could go to players/the stadium. Yet Liverpool fans back him...
I give you a bunch of idiots.
