iancognito Posted 13 August 2022 Share Posted 13 August 2022 31 minutes ago, gazzaa2 said: His transfer record was appalling. He needs a better recruitment team. Rodgers with a Steve Walsh set up above him is a completely different proposition. Other fans warned us about Congerton. But it's a similar story on defending set pieces. That's Kolo Toure's job. Rather than sack Toure we spend more money on a set piece coach. It's like because he played for top 6 teams he's the Ivory Coast version of Tony Adams. Watch some of the Prem games from about 15 years ago. Toure is a liability. He was only a regular at Arsenal for about 2 seasons in about 5 here was there. At Man City & Liverpool he was nearly always the back up. Yet Rodgers seemingly rather blame the players rather than the guy working with them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin Samuel of Daily Mail fame has written that his sympathy is with Rodgers , basically we are fortunate to have him and he may decide to walk away. What B S . If he is not committed to the club then that is as destabilising as Fofana or Maddison believing the grass is greener elsewhere. He won't resign when he is due a massive pay out if sacked. Hope on folks this season is going to be a very bumpy ride. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it? Because that wasn’t the case at Celtic, or Swansea, I wouldn’t say it’s the case here either. Liverpool is an interesting one because he got them their best ever PL finish, but they slipped the following season and he was probably sacked before being given the chance to turn it around. If Gerrard doesn’t slip who knows how BR would be seen on Merseyside now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Doctor Posted 13 August 2022 Share Posted 13 August 2022 I mean he wasn't sacked before having a chance to turn it round, he was sacked because it was obvious he couldn't turn it around. Remember, 1 win in 6 (against Tim Sherwood's Villa) and 10th when they pulled the trigger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the problem there are no obvious candidates that spring to mind. However Rodgers is paid big bucks to make us a better team. I feel we are going backwards at the moment. Hopefully he can run it around I am not so sure he can do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can you form an opinion if you refuse to listen to him.. This site is priceless. Why? You dont need to continue to listen to someone once your opinion is formed. So at the point of no longer listening to him you've formed an opinion. I never used to listen to David Pleat in the end. His after match comments were never about the game we had seen. He would always claim we was unlucky. In a 1-0 or 2-1 you can be unlucky. In a 4-0 or 5-0 defeat your just shite 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If our aim is to continually aim to disrupt the top six you can’t tell me on any level that we have a better chance of doing that under Dyche than we do Rodgers.

Guest itude Posted 13 August 2022 Share Posted 13 August 2022 (edited) Well why don't you tell us exactly why that is then ? Not much chance of that under Rodgers is there ? and hardly a large set of excellent managers lining up to take over. He is premier league proven , tell me another who will come with the same or better record then, please do. Edited 13 August 2022 by itude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well considering Rodgers has done it twice and won trophies I would say there is a chance under him, certainly more chance than under Dyche.

Mickyblueeyes Posted 13 August 2022 Share Posted 13 August 2022 9 hours ago, BKLFox said: A year before he left, so if it’s down to the manager they wouldn’t have achieved that 2nd place, the highest position they had achieved in premiership history at that point and only bettered once since! See this is it, there is a personal attachment to Rodgers, people don’t like him with talk of hatred & hatred is an emotion & what does Ricky Gervais say about emotions? I think they were growing tired with style of play and errors that were consistently occurring. I think fans of Liverpool are slightly less forgiving then us. The 6-1 collapse at the end of the season after the 3-1 collapse against Palace the week before must’ve had them shell shock. There isn’t some vendetta against Rodgers, these traits have followed him around. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
