Popular Post ALC Fox Posted 15 October 2022 Popular Post Share Posted 15 October 2022 I thought the performance wasn't too bad today. I really wasn't sure about the Daka and Soumare subs, though. But Vardy and Mendy both did OK in the end and Nacho looked dangerous. We've been far, far worse this season so I really didn't agree with the boos at full-time today. I get that it was because of frustration throughout the campaign and before, but there were definite positives today. However, Rodgers' blame game doesn't half fook me off. He's not winning friends is he. I can't help the effect it might have on the players too. We can't change things up really because certain players are frozen out for so long and so thoroughly dejected and demotivated. I still want Brendan gone, but we weren't all that bad today imo. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You say you don't care what he says but it becomes more important when you're in trouble, he shows no signs of being emotionally intelligent enough to change and stand a chance of fixing things. I actually now despise him, he's on a par with Peter Taylor in 2000/01. No, he's actually worse. I can see the argument that it’s gone stale to such a degree that it become untenable for both parties, but I am not sure what helps this situation unless Top pulls the cord.

I’ve never felt a connection with him but naturally that falls to the wayside when you’re winning FA cups. You have an extremely unromantic view on the game, don’t you?

jayfox26 Posted 15 October 2022 Share Posted 15 October 2022 6 minutes ago, Dahnsouff said: Why do people hold him to a bizarre (too me anyway) popularist standard? Who gives a **** he just needs to win football matches (currently failing) and I could not give a toss what he thinks of the fans, what he says, what clothes he wears, what car he drives, what religion he is, just win matches ffs I agree but likeable managers will likely be given more time, especially by the fans. It is all about winning games but fans will get behind a manager if they like/believe in them. Pearson was always well liked by most of our fanbase and I don't recall many turning on him in the great escape season despite it looking like we'd get relegated for most of the season. As a fan base we should like Rodgers as he won us our first fa Cup but the vast majority can't stand him. Its not just about the performances and results it's just his attitude, his constant deflection tactics and his self preservation stance he has. He doesn't give 2 shits about Top, the club, the players, the fans or anyone. He loves himself and everyone else can get to fck. Again, if he was still performing highly, I wouldn't be arsed about his personality but he isn't and is showing no sign or either wanting or knowing how to sort this mess! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HankMarvin Posted 15 October 2022 Share Posted 15 October 2022 People saying the performance was ok, that probably had more to do with the fact that Palace were utter shite in the final third. we had a nice run of games against the “easier teams” if you can’t pick up 3 points against these teams make no mistake we are in big trouble with this helm in charge. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BKLFox Posted 15 October 2022 Share Posted 15 October 2022 (edited) Imagine if Rodgers told a Leicester city fan to FO&D then said to the media "I replied to one idiot in the stands and if he doesn't like what he sees, then don't bother coming. "Maybe they ought to think about staying at home, we need support, their support.” maybe he should to get the legend status 🤷♂️ Edited 15 October 2022 by BKLFox 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fans were complaining about him when we were 5th and won the fa cup. Hasn’t been able to sign anyone (as if we didn’t know that). Blamed everything again besides himself. It was the first interview I have heard this season from him and it was purely about protecting himself. He just refused to take any form of accountability, it really is shocking stuff. Yep, he thinks he is better than the club and always has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bournemouth was grim but early in the following season, we played some of the most pragmatic football we ever have under Rodgers until the late season collapse. I think it's a gradual thing really, with the first 11 being generally the one Rodgers inherited and messaging going a bit stale was always going to happen. I never thought it would be to this extent though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
