Came across this interesting interview of my favourite Rovers manager Mark Hughes He was doing well with us. Got us to europe and semi finals of cup competitions I also appreciate Souness who won us the league cup. Not easy when your club doesn’t win trophies much (see Newcastle). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He actually was very familiar that title winning squad. But that squad was already ageing, lack of strengthening and renewal saw a rapid decline. 9 hours ago, ManOfTheHour said: Recently Hughes claimed that Liverpool spoke to him about replacing Hodgson.

Never liked Ince even though we signed him from Inter and not directly after manure. Especially making him captain the moment he joined. One of the worst Liverpool teams in history esp when Houllier took charge solo. coincidentally today is his death anni the only Manure player in recent memory that Liverpool fans actually didn’t mind was Heinze. souness had no experience.

Ended up panicked buy a lot of poor overpriced players. Kevin Davies arrived as a record signing 7.5m, he was under a lot pressure to live up to that price tag.

Too bad always injured like Redknapp. in the 90s Blackburn team i liked Wilcox, Ripley. As Liverpool fans we really thought and hoped Blackburn sure win 93/94 season after beating Manure.

I remember my pool classmates always haolian to me this back five : john scales, mark wright, phil babb/ ruddock, jones, bjornebye. I remember arguing with ppl who claimed blackburn bought the title. Wilcox was developed from the academy, mark atkins was plucked from non league Scunthorpe. Bought the title my foot. Gone are the days of the traditional 442 wide men like ripley & wilcox.
