I have a feeling Risso would've started that thread a long time ago!

I remember him being fixated on Neil Taylor not being very good. Which is fine, except it was during our ten game winning streak.

But he was crap.

Risso was usually quite good at spotting when enough was enough though I often felt he went a few months early on Smith and a touch early on Gerrard.

The time to protest about Gerrard was about 5 seconds after the first rumours of his appointment surfaced.

The lego haired scouse twat.

No one remotely sane wants Unai out.
A Small Heath fan might.

Yes, he said remotely sane though.

Yeah, Risso was very pro-Gerrard for some reason.

Risso supported Gerrard right until the end, the blame was that the players weren't good enough and no one could do better with them.

well not really once we get into Europa we will need squad numbers up anyway .

Yes, we famously didn't have to worry about playing in Europe last season.
hence why saying Guessand replaces 2 players is silly . We actually need 2 players for rotation .

Yes, an absolutely stupid exercise in starfucking, with predictable results.

He was always a twat but I do wonder if our capitulation last day ruined what bit of managerial ability he did have as it cost Liverpool the title, as he was shocking the following season.

He was very good in TV interviews too. It's just that he was such a thick cnut.

I appreciate things need to be explained *very* slowly to you, so I do apologise.

Last season, to play off the left we had Digne, Maatsen, Ramsey, Rashford and occasionally Rogers.

This season we currently have Digne, Maatsen, Guessand and if needed, Rogers. So we don't currently need to replace Ramsey and Rashford as you thought.

If we sign a central attacking option (Asensio or a replacement for him), it might be seen that our attacking options from the left are Guessand and Rogers. Meaning that we don't sign another left-sided attacker.

Nah, I remember him as being pro Gerrard, even after he’d gone.
