Brendan Rodgers

If Klopp is interested and does want a break from football then we could bring someone in on a short-term basis. Whatever happens we can't perform much worse than we have this season, maybe an ex-player like Carragher or Phil Thompson could step in for a short while?

[Gazzla]

Give Rodgers a couple of months if he ****s it Klopp at christmas.

Sounds like the plan to me.

Then we have another wasted transfer window and another season of mid table mediocrity and transition. Bite the bullet and give a top class manager with pedigree the summer to try and sort this mess out

He'll only take a break if he doesn't get the right offer. I'm sure if Barca came calling he isn't going to say call me in six months.

I don't think Rodgers is a 'yes man'. He initially turned FSG down when they talked of a number of managers being in an interview process. He then pretty much changed their mind in relation to the need for a Director of Football.

Just because FSG think they've made the right decision and believe there are other more mitigating factors doesn't mean Rodgers is sat in the background nodding his head all day.

Sky sources? There'll need to be a few more media pieces before I accept their story.

Apparently the club have briefed a number of media outlets to say Rodgers is safe. Interesting to see what the likes of Barrett and Bascombe say tonight.

The worst thing about this season was our pathetic efforts in the CL. Finishing sixth is disappointing, but the CL performances were abysmal. We want to get into the top four so that we can compete against other European elite teams and then we show no desire to progress in the competition. That was embarrassing, we're Liverpool FC five times winners and we couldn't even get through the group stages. In a way I'm glad we didn't get into the top four this season, because going through that experience with Rodgers again would have been painful.

I can think of worse things this season. Rodgers struggling in his first Champions League campaign is not one of them.

Give Rodgers a couple of months if he ****s it Klopp at christmas.

Sounds like the plan to me.

The six month sabbatical announced by Klopp is certainly an odd time frame in football terms.

[Marvel]

Fsg sack their managers pretty quickly so if he hasn't gone by the end of the week then hes staying.

[Kenneth]

It was worse than struggling imo.

And from the quotes it doesn't sound like Klopp has really announced a sabbatical.

[Buzzo]

I'm not so sure that what we hear in Social media and the press is going to be what actually happens. Not yet anyway.

[G]

If the quote from Cream is accurate then he isn't taking a sabbatical by choice, he just hasn't got any offers. If we haven't made one to him then those running the club are bigger bellends than I thought

[Muddled]

Rodgers might even talk himself out of the role come this review. And even then, if FSG do have a complete overhaul of this transfer committee and introduce a Director of Football, Rodgers may stand aside on his own accord.

FFS, it's a huge mistake to keep him on, I can't even muster the emotions to be livid or angry, just feel like chucking it in.

[TheElephantMan]

When does the review take place?

[Muddled]

FFS, it's a huge mistake to keep him on, I can't even muster the emotions to be livid or angry, just feel like chucking it in.

It's not a huge mistake. If there is not the right calibre of manager available, why change for change sake? With the right summer and a firm belief in his system of choice, Rodgers could very much turn it around next season.

There's always hope.
