I'm not a Liverpool fans but I from whart I see this is not the best time to become Liverpool fans. A lot of trouble on and off the field didn't help at all by fans protest. News have breakout that Liverpool was taken over by Boston Red Sox owner John Henry. But can it change the fortune for Liverpool. No matter how, Liverpool cannot bring in a new players until January and they have to do with the current squad which have not deliver well for the first 2 months. In your opinion, will the take over can change Liverpool in the future?

The boardroom struggle and the objectives of the owners definitely take a toll on the club. If the new owners, the players and manager can concentrate fully on playing and not worry about the future of the club.

We see what the can do for the next few months. Concentration and motivation is what they need. Maybe what happen to Liverpool will give warning to the so call small ambitious club not to take shortcut by using foreign owner for injection of money.

I don't know what is going to be with Liverpool, but this selling and buying thing makes from Liverpool nothing more than a toy. I cannot agree with this type of maintaining a team, for being sold to rich people, and especially foreigners. It is not fair comparing to other teams who cannot be bought by rich owners. I think UEFA shouldn't let this things happen. I think that Liverpool supporters should boycott every game they have and not go to games, not even one of them. Because this is not their team anymore, it is a toy. I'm sorry that teams that are owned by a person still have fans. It is very strange that many teams can live by themselves and others only get money from the sky. And we don't even know what type of money are those. Maybe they are illegal money washed behind a team. It is ugly and I will never agree with this. It is a shame that the myth of Liverpool is being spoiled by this type of commercializing.

I think UEFA didn't have the power to interfere how the club run itself. But they have made something to improve this situation , I hope, by imposing the implementation of the financial fairplay. I don't see many big club will qualify if this have been implemented.
