Lawro: This Liverpool team is worse than Souness’s side

|

Former Liverpool player Mark Lawrenson believes that the Reds squad is worse than the team that played under Graeme Souness in the 1990s. Writing in his column in the Daily Mirror, Lawrenson said:

“Everything must be kept in context and this is the worst Liverpool team I can remember in a long time. People talk about Graeme Souness’ side in the early 1990s, but this is worse. With a few notable exceptions – and everybody knows who I’m talking about – the team is way short of quality. Most managers tell their chairman they need two or three players to complete their team, but Roy needs six or seven. January is going to be very important for Liverpool and they have got to try and get some better players in.”

Lawrenson is confident that NESV will be better custodians of the club than George Gillett and Tom Hicks:

“I know some Liverpool fans have their reservations about Henry and are thinking ‘oh no, not another American after Hicks and Gillett’, but this guy looks different. I have great faith in Martin Broughton and he wouldn’t be doing this deal if he didn’t feel it was in the best interests of Liverpool Football Club. He will make sure there are guarantees written into the contract regarding paying off the debt, buying players and sorting out the stadium. After Hicks and Gillett, this really is a new era for everyone at Liverpool Football Club.”
