like i said europa league is a waste of time. Kenny is going to build a team that will win the league title and CL. Liverpool don't need the strain of playing any more extra games that would stretch the club in means of man power. Do you want to risk player health playing teams from the backwoods of Romania and Bulgaria that have nothing to lose and feel they need to knock of the bigger clubs of Europe by any means possible. Europa league = Loser Cup. Leave it for the Fullams of Europe

when you have low expectations then you want to be in Dublin. All kidding aside teams from those country's don't deserve to play in the CL since they have a snowballs chance of winning the CL. I thought we went thru how the CL is not really Champions playing in it and the Europa league is the Loser Cup. You want to know why it is? cause if Barca by some miracle wound up having to play in the Loser Cup do you think Messi would stick around. Execpt for Gerrard and Carra do you think some of the players on Liverpool would want to play in the Loser Cup some i would say but others i'm sure wouldn't. Pepe Rena didn't want to but is staying cause on Kenny DauglishComment

Oh by the way Man City fans would be happy if their team won a silver dixie cup for a trophyComment

did you class the 2001 season as a losing one then???? i certainly didnt....
also, basically you are saying that only teams from england, spain, italy, germany and maybe holland should be in the c/l? the rest can play tiddlewinks.... get my point. ?..
i'm not saying i want to play in the e/l but we HAVE to as aim as high as possible and at this moment we have a slim chance of being 5th... better than 6th???? yes.....YNWA..Comment

Boomer is right on this IMO
Prior to the Spurs defeat who in here would have said no to Europa league football ?
My guess is none, you can not hide it away and say well it will help us next season !! It may well do that with regards to league position but realistically challenging for more honors is the way forward. Liverpool have a big task now to displace one of the top 4 and it wont happen overnight. It took Chelsea and City with unlimited budgets around 3 seasons.
Look at it this way should Liverpool sneak into 5th and then go on to the E/L final come next May how many are going to go and read a good book instead because it hampered the unrealistic title challenge ?Comment

Considering what could have happened if Roy Hodgson was still manager, possible 5th place and the EL to have the chance of winning a trophy is one big step forward.

Of course 5th is better than 6th but in reality it makes no difference except a spot in the loser cup. Does any big team in Europe really look at an up coming season and say thank god we are in the Europa league or our main goal is to qualify for the Europa league (Loser Cup).All i'm saying is Liverpool don't need to play the Extra games the Loser cup will add to the season ahead. The Loser cup is worthless and you might as well melt the trophy and make tea cups.Comment

In an ideal world, Liverpool would have won the League again, in the Champions League final again, won the FA Cup, etc...... but it's not an ideal world
Reality check:- You have to take each season as it comes - the highs, the lows, it's what makes football special

I have to agree with the Europa League, and liverpool not being in it next year is most proberly better than being in it.
As said before, Daglish dont need the strain of thursday night football, they should of left it as the UEFA cup setup.
its gonna take a few seasons for liverpool to be fully strong again and liverpools main focus under daglish will be the league, where over the years most european managers with liverpool focus on the europeans cups and european sucess.
But the Mancs going on about 19 titles....well its took them 30 years to overtake but left with debt of over 700m and now a retiring squad and no transfers funds, im sure its not going to take liverpool 30 years, running at huge losses, and a huge debt to win 2 titles and retaining it.Car DiagnosticsComment
