Would spurs wait til end of season... but then Rogers has relegated us... would they take him still? And pay compo... Or wait for us to sack....??? I'd say Rogers could have a positive impact on there CL hopes, but then you mix his bottler tendencies with Spurs as a club, and you'd probably think may aswell wait til the summer when more options are available. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Year Of The Fox Posted 2 April 2023 Share Posted 2 April 2023 Just now, Aus Fox said: I think the thing football fans forget sometimes is you can both be a good coach/manager/player, but not the right person for a particular team or situation at any particular point in time. I still think Rodgers is a good manger, and will still go on and get a new job and do well in the PL or wherever he chooses to go next, however, he is not the person for us right now, with the crop of players he has in front of him. You forgot one pertinent point. He’s a good manager for two years. I don’t think many would disagree with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splinterdream Posted 2 April 2023 Share Posted 2 April 2023 35 minutes ago, Poznan34 said: I wonder if a problem is that a lot of senior players know they are out of contract or soon to be in their final year. They know they're moving on in the summer so no impetus to go to Rudkin and get Rodgers sacked. Mendy, Amartey, Evans, Tielemans deals up in the summer. Maddison, Ndidi, Nacho, Vardy only one year left Which leaves our senior pros with long term deals as...Barnes, Ricardo, KDH, Castagne? Spot on, this is a huge problem. I don't think all players have a 'couldn't care less' attitude, but i think Rodgers is failing to spot the players that do have this attitude.

Or they have no desire to put in the required effort on the pitch. You look at our squad and it’s full of players who know they won’t be here next season and aren’t pulling up trees to win the next ball. This imo is the biggest problem we have, too many people are looking for their next contract away from here and do not want to risk an injury.

John12345 Posted 2 April 2023 Share Posted 2 April 2023 I think he will get sacked today or certainly next week if we lose to villa. The people who run the club aren't that stupid and they'll see the cost of payout is less than certain relegation. Up to now they've been gambling but I think they've set a stop loss limit and we are now at that. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiv Posted 2 April 2023 Share Posted 2 April 2023 He’s not going anywhere. So let’s quash the rumours that “he’s been sacked”. I’ve accepted our Board don’t give a sh1t and we’re going down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't dread anything. He can't wait for it. He executed the plan perfectly. Get fired before relegation so he wont get the blame for it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanted to avoid the millions in compensation. Thought we'd finish 15th and he'd go for free in summer. Now they'll act as the gamble is going to go wrong otherwise. Well that's the only logical explanation. I think you'll see it within the next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
