I question many Liverpool fans at the minute with them believing that Liverpools fortunes have greatly changed under Daglish and no doubt they've improved slightly under his reign but not as much as many actually think .
For starters Daglish has had the luxury of signing two strikers who are both showing better form than Fernando Torres has for the past two seasons, Hodgson also failed to see the best football from Steven Gerard as has Daglish I suppose .
In football it's a result business and ultimately Daglishs ratio of wins all that much better than Hodgsons .

On the ratios of wins Daglish is only 1.81% more likely to win than under Hodgsons reign not a significant number in my opinion.
Do you think football fans are fickle and are just choosing to believe in the King Kenny myth or is he getting amazing results at Liverpool?
On this matter they managed to go and lose at a vital time to West Brom ultimately failing to pounce on Tottenham's draw so in actual fact they've lost ground once again on their nearest competitors going by league positions.

liverpool improved alot after daglish,the team became stronger and doesnt suffer in small matches and didnt lose alot of points so we can consider this a good sign and a big step towards returning liverpool to glory,if the club owners can provide dglish with the money he needs for buying new players and if liverpool bought 2 or 3 super players a striker and defender and leftback we wills ee liverpool in the next season on the top of the league table :D

Contrary to this I believe they still suffer against smaller teams and the winning ratio is basically the same as that of Hodgsons . They may have improved performance wise and thus look a better team as a result but in football it's a results business .
They also don't need any more forwards after the January acquisitions of Carroll and Suarez. I do agree on the potential signing of a left back though also a right back is huge problem for them in fact they're whole defence isn't great .
As Agger is brilliant but is hasn't been fit for a sustained number of games for quite a while now. Carragher isn't the player he used to be Skrtel is distinctly average. Glen Johnson doesn't know how to defend albeit he's great going forward.
