[Alex]

What he says is fair, if a little odd.

He probably shouldn't bother, but this is hardly something to care about.

Especially after 3 points and 2 goals from Sturridge. Why do people not care about that?

Delighted with the win, but it was a ****e Villa who've now lost 5 out of 7 in the league. Win against Everton playing like that & there'll be a discussion worth having.

What Rodgers needs to do is just say he'll let the results do the talking and leave it at that.

[Fredo]

3-2 flattered them to be honest.

Yep, a delight to see some sublime goals scored by us, but as far as Brendan is concerned it's not about one game, or even 10 or 20 games, it's about the whole picture since he came in, and i'm not convinced at all.

Really wish is was.

Well home from game after a few beers

Still a bit meh, yeah we won. Some positives but on the whole it was a very flat games move the ball too slowly, no penetration...the only differences being Sturridge took two great goals(btw apart from that he was well of the pace imo), and the fact villa were dreadful and just didn't get in our faces

Another telling thing, the atmosphere was as dead as I can ever remember, the crowd just seemed to sit there waiting to go home and I'll throw in, very very telling that there was no support shown for Rodgers

I think it's a case of when not if he will be sacked

[Irishnev]

Best thing Rodgers could do is just keep quiet, go home and watch MOTD or something.

Probably not a good suggestion, Southampton won 3-1 today so watching that might give him ideas for the Jan transfer window if he is still here!

Glad you're home safe bud.

Was worried

Some really disingenuous comments from Rodgers in that press conference.

He makes out that it's only been a couple of defeats over a short period. When of course it's actually a catalog of listless performances, poor results and embarrassing defeats over the past year thats caused the 'hysteria'.

Wouldn't give him a fiver to spend.

Didn't watch the match but interested to hear what formation we lined up with.

Report I read said Milner enjoyed playing further up the pitch which led me to believe we only played Lucas in front of the back 3?

Was it 3322?

[Irishnev]

Watching this on Sky Sports now and the most interesting thing for me is that I never realised how much Brad Guzan looks like mini me!

Was a good game and we were a hell of a lot better than of late.

Milner started a bit further up but he played centrally as did Coutinho. Certainly didn't seem to play further up.

Lucas was Lucas, sat very deep protecting Moreno who got caught out of position a lot but was great at attacking down the left.

On the flip side of this Clyne didn't attack down the right so much but looked far more accomplished in defence.

As for formation **** knows, someone else can answer that ha ha!
