Re: [lfc] Roy Hodgson will meet John W Henry after Liverpool win at Bolton

The funny thing is that normally when a manager takes over things get
better. How often does a team hit the bottom of the league playing
s***e. There aren't even signs, bar last week against B.Burn, that
sooner or later we are going to pick up the results we deserve. After
all the only decent player to have left is masch, and for all his hard
work he produced as a DM nobody can convince me that his departure
has affected our whole play and confidence that badly. One thing that
Roy could complain about is that one too many player is out of form
namely, Cole and Johnson and Poulsen and Konchesky are not Liverpool
material and he should have known better.
