I was never convinced by him as a manager as he inherited the best team in Europe, spent loads, left when it looked like it was all going downhill and was then distinctly average at Newcastle.  He's really revived them but I wonder how much of it is Dalglish as figurehead and inspiration and Steve Clarke as the football brains.  And I wonder what Woy might have achieved if given the Torres money to spend.

It might work out it might not but he has got red blood running through his veins, talking to some Liverpool fans they are over the moon with him being named manager but don't they say never go back a second time.

He built the Barnes, Beardsley, Aldridge team - as good as any they have had. I think his reasons for leaving were a bit deeper than it was going downhill a bit.

Apart from his last months at Liverpool when his judgement and interest was waning I have always thought he has brought pretty well wherever he has been.

To be fair he also got Blackburn promoted and won the Premier League with them.
