Sammy Lee

[Conor]

If he talks like that to the players no wonder the team is full of confidence. There is a real determination and conviction in everything he says. It fires me up.

[ZZZZ]

Agree - His interviews, pre and post game have been very good.

 

He emphasizes three things in particular; the club and that it should be top of the table, the team over any one player and Rafa and the backroom team he has built.

 

Each interview is like a replica of the other ones and impressive

on another sammy note............love it that the old sammy song is being sung!...makes me feel like im back in the 80`s with us challenging for the title.....huh.,eh,weird?.......!!!

[Bootle Buck]

He is very polished and as good as Rafa at staying focused on the next game and improving. He is especially good at keeping the Sky bloodhounds in their place and frustrating the s*** out of them.

[Guest PaulMcC]

He gives the press f*** all and keeps me amused at the same time.

 

Class.

[Magic8Ball]

Good to have him back, but why did he fail at Bolton ?

[Conor]

It's pure Rafa as well hat he gives praise to the players but always ends that there is room for improvement. "this is what Liverpool football club is about" etc. Him coming back has been huge in my opinion. Was it true that Rafa never wanted him to leave when he first arrived?

I wanna start the 'Bring back that Ronnie Whelan' again...

[Maldini]

Good to have him back, but why did he fail at Bolton ?

 

He tried to make too many changes too quickly and he tried to get them playing football when they just didn't have the players.

yeah, I think it was Sammy's decision to leave, he wasn't shown the door as Phil Thompson was.

Thommo said he wasn't shown the door, he said that Rafa said he would like him to stay on but Thommo knew it was the right time to go.

[Will]

Sammy is a legend

[Andy @ Allerton]

Made up Sammy is back.

 

Next LFC Manager in 30 years?

Not sure about that. Could be he's one of life's assisstant managers

agree with that, i've loved his recent interviews, he's so positive about everything. a natural number two, he must be great to work with on the training pitch.

[Benitez]

Thommo said he wasn't shown the door, he said that Rafa said he would like him to stay on but Thommo knew it was the right time to go.

 

 

Thought that was the case with Sammy, not PT. Could have sworn that it was Sammy who did the 'right time to go thing'. Whereas Thommo openly stated he wanted to stay.

[Puma]

Sammy seems to have been a very positive influence for the team this season. It's really good to keep some of the boot room tradition alive.

 

On another note, it was interesting to see Rafa sit in the second row last night........
