Leicester needs a lift and BR probably needs to take that next step. I'd say thank you and good luck BR a move that suits both parties currently. Not if Big Sam is the only available manager and Rodgers takes Youri & Wilf with him in January Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prince Posted 7 November 2021 Share Posted 7 November 2021 Well, in stark contrast to Thursday, first half against Leeds has been end to end stuff. Certainly not boring but I think it’s an indication that something is not right. To paraphrase something Brendan said when we beat them 4-1, he said something along the lines of making sure you don’t get into a basketball game with Leeds. The set up and approach for this game is nuts. Don’t get me wrong, if we decide that this kind of gung-ho approach is the way forward, then fair enough but it’s the literal opposite of the Rodgers footballing philosophy. what is going on? Has the pressure got to him? Is he running out of ideas? Win or lose, it’s certainly telling me that all is not well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StanSP Posted 7 November 2021 Share Posted 7 November 2021 Should have brought on Iheanacho or Daka earlier and supported Vardy. Lookman was out of the game for the 2nd half. I get Rodgers was hamstrung with the Tielemans injury in terms of planned subs, but couldn't understand why Maddison couldn't have come on for Youri instead of KDH. Could he not have come on for Youri, and then Daka on for Lookman? He got the starting line up fine. We were all happy. The lack of precision and accuracy in the passing was rubbish. We moved the ball forward but almost buckled under the Leeds pressure for periods of the game. I think Maddison could have come on earlier. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Sol thewall Bamba Posted 7 November 2021 Popular Post Share Posted 7 November 2021 Youri's thunderbastard has pretty much single handedly covered for him for 6 months or so. Other than that we've been pretty crap for a long time now. Given what he's paid and the resources at his disposal it's pretty underwhelming at the moment. 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RowlattsFox Posted 7 November 2021 Share Posted 7 November 2021 If I had faith Rodgers would rejuvenate the squad next summer then I would accept a transitional season but I'm not sure he's see the problem. In not Rodgers out by any means, I think a drop was inevitable at some point because I think our squad as overachieved in some ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Power Posted 7 November 2021 Share Posted 7 November 2021 What worries me is that I don’t see what the plan A is. I like a manager to be pragmatic and adapt to the opposition and also not stick to players/teams that aren’t working but at the same time it seems we change system and personnel pre game and during the game almost at random. A rapid front three to get in behind their high line made sense, but instead of tweaking it - maybe getting Iheanacho or Maddison on to drop towards the ball and link the play - he goes to a back 5 and then takes both wingers off for a number 10. Still seem to be searching for the best way to play and the best 11 - need to get there soon or this season could be a complete write off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those substitutions would have complimented the formation and shown ambition. The change to three at the back not only signalled an acceptance of the draw but arguably made us more vulnerable as we weren't dangerous for the opposition and changed to a format in which we know we concede goals.

Keiriel Posted 7 November 2021 Share Posted 7 November 2021 The real question is, who will be the brave soul to touch Heskey's leg when Brendan's sacking is announced on Sky Sports? P.S. I'm not advocating for his dismissal here, despite frustrations with our performances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Fox Posted 7 November 2021 Share Posted 7 November 2021 Rodgers has done well here no denying that but it does feel like his time with us has run it’s course whether he leaves now or at the end of the season, the players don’t seem to be up for it anymore, and neither do the management. If he goes to Manchester United so be it, I personally feel a new manager whoever that may be will re-galvanize us. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moore_94 Posted 7 November 2021 Share Posted 7 November 2021 Can't see us sacking him anytime soon, not skirting with the relegation zone and however bad we have been we are still only 2 points off 6th If he leaves it will be because he joins another club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arriba Los Zorros Posted 7 November 2021 Share Posted 7 November 2021 If Rodgers goes it's a loss can't just judge his whole time here on the last few games but maybe he's hit a brick wall here and it's time to go. Problem is he'll take Youri and Wilf with him and then our entire midfield is wiped out. Possibly Harvey and Fofana too. For that reason alone I hope he stays.

Hales Posted 7 November 2021 Share Posted 7 November 2021 (edited) 😳😳😳😳😳 some of you! To be honest I think the players need to look at themselves too! They are professionals and are playing with no passion or desire - work hard, run. It's not all on Brendan. Something is clearly not right but they are grown men who should be held accountable too Edited 7 November 2021 by Hales 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
