Don't blame Roy for everything, its not like the players massively underperformed all season or anything. I'm pretty sure he doesn't set his team out to play hoofball, never did that at fulham he made them pass it around, Liverpool's defence on the night just lack a player who knows how to pass a ball.
Yes he's done a fairly bad job, but players need criticising too.
Singing for Kenny, they'd probably do it if Roy had us in 4th, anyone ever stop to think why Kenny didn't take over when Rafa left, maybe he didn't want to join....
Roy played a very direct style of play at Fulham, not as much as he has at Liverpool although many balls went up to Zamora. He hardly had a ball-playing defender at Fulham either. He put Agger on the bench who is a fine passer of the ball...
A fairly bad job is a massive understatement, the players have been terrible also (well, the majority).
No, we wouldn't. If Roy was doing a good job, playing decent enough football and giving respectable press conferences we would be 100% behind him, to back him at the moment would be ludicrous. Kenny is the perfect short term replacement. Oh, and, Kenny came out and said he applied for the job when Rafa left, Hicks and Gillette went for Roy, their last trick to ruin Liverpool Football Club.

Anyway this mess Liverpool are in is NOT all Roy's fault, How many of Roy's signing started the game last night??
8 of the players who were beat 1-0 by Wolves, were involved in the 4-0 demolition of Real Madrid at Anfield.
Torres is *****- can't hold the ball up, can't beat a man, seems to have lost all pace & looks seriously un-interested.
I've told about 500 people now that if he doesn't get the service he thrives on he will sulk. If he does get the service he will score. Since Roy had a fetish for long balls, Torres has had absolutely NO service.
N'gog- is so pish he wouldn't even get a game for my beloved Rangers (and that's saying something)
Babel - I'm saying nothing.
Meireles- Even when played in favoured CM postion still looks terrible, defo not the same player who performed well for porto & national team.
N'gog has been one of our best players this season and is our top scorer, one of the most improved players in Europe for me and thats not an exaggeration, ask anyone, I used to think he was awful.
Agree on Babel, how he is a professional footballer I will never know.
Disagree about Meireles, when he has played in his favourite position he has been absolutely brilliant, good ball winner, good passer, looks comfortable in posession, top player.
