Finally Hodgson has left, but stil a lot of work to do.

First of all, Liverpool has to get back on track. To be fair, Liverpool should be aiming for a top 6 position, champions league simply isent in the cards this season, Tottenham and Chelsea are 11 and 10 point ahead, and even with a game in hand, is just to far away now.

For the rest of the season there must be 6 goals, that liverpool FC must work hard on to achive:

• Liverpool must finish in at top 6
• Liverpool must formulate a styles and strategi of how they want to play the game.
• Liverpool must identify a new manager, who are capable of implementing the new style of play. Also a manager that the players will respect due to the achivements that he allready has on the CV
• Liverpool must invest in the squad, thereby sending a signal both the the squad and to the competitors, that Liverpool are once again a force to be reckoned with
• Liverpool must go all out in the efforts to win the UEFA League.
• Liverpool must turn the negative spiral. In the recent years there has been to much negativity concerning Liverpool.We all have to unite, and support the club. The fans on the stands, the players on the field, the management on and of the field, and the owners. Liverpool is a special club. There are no other club like Liverpool, it is time to show why.

In regards to finishing in top 6, Liverpool "only" has to win the 2 games in hand, and Liverpool will actuallybe number 6, dependent on the goaldifference.

The style of play, and this is my opinion, we have to go back to the style of play that made us great. I have always identified Liverpool with a shortpassing style of play, which is fairly direct, strong technical players, who likes possesion, and who can create chances themselves.That is why I love players like Xabi Alonso, Agger, Torres, Xavi, Eden Hazard and so on.

At this point in time, I only see two potential managers, who has the name, can implement the style of play the fans wants to see, and who understands a massive club. The names are, Frank Rijkaard and Manuel Pellegrini.
Many has forget that Barcelona was actually in a crisis when Frank Rijkaard took over. They havent won the league or in europe in a number of years. Frank Rijkaard started this golden period for Barcelona (Guardiola has since perfected it). Frank Rijkaard understands the pressure of a big club, understands the politics. His style of play, is a short passing technical game and he has the name that every player in Liverpool knows and respects.
Manual Pellegrini was manager for Villareal in a number of years, taking them from a unknown club, to a wellrespected club. Qualified for europe each year and created a very good team for small investments. Was put in charge of Real Madrid, and took them to the higest point tally ever, but failed the win the championship (finishing 2 after Barcelona) and also failed in the champions league.

The new owners has said, that there are money to invest in the squad, if they right players are availble. I agree, there is no need to buy players, just to buy players. So instead I will concentrate on the positions where I think we need to stregten the squad.

Defence: We need a new left back, and a central defender. First of all, lets bring back Insua. I know he had his short comings, but he is still young and will learn. Still we would have to buy a new left back. I also think that we need a new central defender. Carragher is not getting younger, and I am not sure that Skrtel is good enough. Danny Wilson is very young and would properly benefit from going on loan.

Midfield. I think we need a holding midfielder and a left midfielder. I dont see Gerard as a central midfielder. I see him as a attacking midfielder/supporting striker. Lucas and Christian Poulsen arent bad players, they are just noy good enough to start the games. Therefor a holding midfielder, who can create the games from behind, along with Mereilles who is a box to box midfielder, and Gerrard behind Torres. A left midfielder is also needed. One who can challenge on the left, and create the chances from the left. (Would love if it was Eden Hazard).

Attack: We need a new striker, but it is important, that he can cover as a supporting striker as well. I dont see Liverpool playing with two strikers, due to Steven Gerrard. And if we want a good striker, he would also want to play on a regular basis. Therefor, it is important that it is a player, who can play both the supporting striker and on top. That will also leave cover for injuries for Torres and Gerrard.

To win the UEFA league, is not something that you just do, but if we all unite and stand together. The team is good enough to win it.
