New manager thread

[Chris]

Always get this sort of stuff, loads of speculation about a deal done, a denial of sorts, deal done.

Good luck to Brendan Rodgers, I remember at Anfield when we played Chelsea he asked for my shirt. Great person and great manager.

[Roboklopp]

Is there gonna be an Est Brendan banner then??

Andy Heaton @Andrew_Heaton
Apparently, we're to expect carefully worded denials about Rodgers to hit the net shortly.

Has all this been a case of premature ejaculation?

[Roboklopp]

I think they are a tad ahead of Bender

They've probably evolved from Benders methods of communication

Shut up

Go away

Swansea do play a sterile game though. We created far more than them but we do have better players.

Also doesn't give you an indication on the quality of chances. For example our figures may have included a few that in reality were from Carra playing it out from the back.

Calm down, dear ... This is not RAWK ...

Thanks, dane.

Arn used to be more fun than this.

I didn't mind Arn, got some stick he did. IMO he was repetitive and couldn't stop talking about Rafa, but all in all a pretty harmless bloke.

[RichC]

Did they ban people who didn't support Hodgson?


Anyway, I'm more interested in the SOS statement.

Have you finished our statement yet?

[Macedonian_Red]

I'm confussed. Is that good or bad?

With our efficiency level, you will figure it out eventually ...

[Rowan]

I dunno. To me it says we were more direct and productive with our possession but they were more likely to take their chances when they created them.

13% conversion does seem fairly low though. Still, I suppose their main threat was Danny Graham

Well, unless FSG dig deep into their own pockets and make a serious outside investment into the squad, the gap between LFC and the top 5 clubs will only get bigger ... Anything under £50-60 million NET investment this summer will be taking the piss from FSG ...

i would imagine after them taking such a gamble that they would have to back the appointment up with some serious cash! I do hope that the Rogers appointment wasn't one where they thought he could work on a shoe string budget and get results, that would be a disaster. We shall see

Yeah, I always imagined Arn telling jokes to be similar to Andy Kaufmann doing his Latka stand up sketch.

But he was happy to have a laugh every now and then for sure
