Well his attitude was terrible, but I don't think we can afford to hold grudges. So if he sorts himself out then it's a position we don't need to fill.

If Mcleish can sort Warnocks head out , it will only benefit the club..

I dont think his head needs that much sorting out...Houllier was such a clown that he seemed to go out of his way to not get on with players.

McLeish's comments dont surprise me in the slightest and having Warnock for LB means we can save time and money on improving other areas of the team.

Before Hou was here - Warnock was becoming one of my favourite players. He always tried his hardest, covered well and was consistent. I have faith he'll return to form.

Before any talk of rifts with Houllier, Warnock had spent six months being the definition of a liability at left back. If McLeish can sort that out, let alone his attitude, then I will be impressed.

I can't think of many players who went from being so good (his first 4-6 months with the club) to so bad (his impression of a pub player ever since) almost overnight.

He was a liability before Houllier arrived IMO.

Absolutely.

Let's not pretend he was amazing, then Houllier looked at him funny and he went off the boil. He was awful for a long time, and there was talk about him being a sulk, slating the club and the city, being a bad influence etc etc, which saw him training with the reserves.

I agree, if we can get him right attitude-wise, and get him performing again, then that's fantastic, but let's not pretend this is about Houllier destroying an otherwise excellent player, because it isnt

That tackle against Man City stands out for total inpetness. 1-0 up on top in the game, seconds before half time and he does that!
