At the start of the season i had my blinkers on....call it blind faith or whatever, our squad is defo the strongest it's been for years, but it's NOT strong enough!!

compare our team to that of Manure, Chelski and Arse, aside from the so called star names, we have weaknesses where they have strength.

We will get stronger, but until we spend the money they do (apart from Arsenal who have been very shrewd) we will keep finding it difficult.

In the summer a big deal was made of us spending £20+million on Torres, but United also spent a fortune bringing in Hargreaves, Nani, Anderson and Tevez....they didn't have to sell anyone to finance the spending, we sold on Luis Garcia and Craig Bellamy to help fund Torres.

Benitez has been guilty of some bad buys, but when his budget was limited he could only justify buying 3 or 4 players for £6-£7 million each instead of one for £20million....if a big money signing fails to adapt at Liverpool, we'd be screwed.....look at Chelski, Shevchenko cost £30million and has been a big flop, yet they had Drogba/Kalou/Anelka etc as back ups..and they'll continue to spend if needed.

I honestly think he's the right man!
