Brendan Rodgers

Recommended Posts

Absolutely terrible today, his brand of football is so boring to watch. He’s got nearly a full squad available now and nothing is any better.

 I honestly don’t know how anyone can enjoy watching us at the minute

You are on a hiding to nothing if you think a manager is going to be negative in post match conferences. 
 

Just isn’t the way they operate 

The difference is that with most other managers you get the sense that they’re really actually unhappy with the performance and are going to go into the changing room raging, and come back out the next game with things improved.

 

None of that happens with Rodgers

That’s your suspicion - we haven’t got the slightest what happens behind closed doors. Just pure speculation

he patronises the crowd by saying "they got behind the boys today" - rubbish - if he wants the support of the fans he need to level with us:  say "my obsession with possession is stifling creativity so that even against a villa side on the beach we made zero changes."

 

yet he says this is fine and acceptable - he should; hang his head in shame and give his wages to charity.

Not true though. Plenty of other managers will do it. Doesn't mean he has to only say negative things but a little appreciation that the past 3 performances, or at least the intent, haven't been good enough.

 

As others have said, you get the feeling that he is genuinely happy with how we've approached these games and that's the real worry.

But as he has mentioned things but the public and media cherry picker what they want to hear. 
 

It’s all waffle anyway to appease a machine of noise. I increasingly find it bizarre how much people take notice of pre and post match interviews; even more so using confirmation bias to pick the quotes what fit their opinion. 
 

He was always going to put the best shine on today given Thursdays huge game

I wonder what the players think to it all

 

Hopefully today was because of Thursday, but we've been boring to watch for ages.

 

I'd rather have lost at Newcastle and Everton if we'd have gone down with an exciting, adventurous brand of football, as the season is over

 

Not many positives from the last 3 games apart from match fitness and injured players coming back in time for Roma🤞

It’s speculation in terms of raging at the players

 

But the performances have barely improved 

The performances have improved though - we’ve had 1 loss in 8 and understandably as we’ve progressed through Europe, the league games have become a by-thought hence a lot of boring crap like today. 
 

If our fans were barely up for Newcastle away after the quarter final in Holland, the players ain’t gonna be far off the same.

If we completely nause up Roma do you think top makes a decision? Just speculating. 

He wouldn’t want to cough up the best part of £30 million of an already stretched transfer kitty and in the process look (to the outside world) a harsh sacking

There’s two parts to my issues with Rodgers’ football here now

 

The first is the stuff of today which has been an ongoing thing for a year and a half or so (more often than not)

 

Then there’s been this horrendous 6 month slump we’ve had this season

 

Rodgers may have started to address some of the issues that reared their head during the 6 month slump, but as shown today, he’s not even scratched the surface on the more deep rooted issues

I was at Newcastle and didn't think our lot were too bad tbh.

A 2nd half effort might have got more out of them, as well
