Brendan Rodgers

[danperkins]

We should have gone with the diamond and two up top. Support for Benteke and service from the wide areas. We are far too narrow.

It's been going downhill for a while now. I will be shocked if Rodgers turns it around.

The upsetting thing for me is the way we stripped the sqaud of people who loved and fought for the club and had quality. Agger and Reina were replaced by Lovren and Mignolet. For tens of millions of pounds.

We have needed some in the middle of the park since Alonso left. Rodgers has had 3 full years and a hell of a lot of money and he has ended up with Mignolet Skrtel Lovren and Lucas as the defensive diamond. Poor to say the least. Appalling to be accurate.

I am a supporter of giving the manager time but I think he's had it. It has stopped hurting when we lose. For me, that means I hope he leaves.

Now, 433 with Ibe and Moreno would have been much better.

We'll have to revert to a diamond, with Coutinho in behind, when Sturridge comes back. Moreno has to play and Gomez moved at CB.

Rodgers can turn this around, but he needs to stop ****ing about.

I saw the lineup and was excited it was exactly what I was saying to pick days ago. Then I find out he played that team in a 433 instead of the natural diamond which would have smashed the dodgy mancs.

Lovren alone was bad enough, but I now understand what everyone has been saying here that he doesn't have a clue what he's doing. Benefit of the doubt has now expired and money in the bank ran out last week.

I don't believe that. FSG won't sack him yet, not unless they have a replacement available.

The diamond wouldn't have worked.
Shaw would have torn us apart and Clyne would have been 2v1 all game.
Now, 433 with Ibe and Moreno would have been much better.

Don't agree. Shaw would have (and probably did) torn us apart if we played those players in a 433. It just so happens with a diamond we would have done some arse tearing ourselves.

I would have been happy with a 4-3 defeat and some nervousness in the Utd ranks than a meek offering. Its over, hope that ESPN report isn't just clickbait. We have time to save this season, heck we still have time to win the league now that Silva and Aguero are out.

It's definitely the beginning of the end for Rodgers imo. Even the majority of rawk members including mods have turned on Rodgers.

IMO the players we have arw much better than what is being served up. We need a new manager that actually knows what way he wants his team to play and what way he wants to set them up. It really seems like guess work from Rodgers and he's such a stubborn ****er... to his and the teams detriment.

[Slinky Skills]

There is absolutely zero chance of Rodgers resigning from Liverpool. This is pinnacle of his career, and he'll never get this kind of money or attention again.

If he uses the word outstanding he should be fired on the spot.

Regarding a crisis meeting, can't see it happening but I can imagine Henry has been hit with a tirade of abuse from Liverpool fans on Twitter tonight which he can't ignore.

JH doesn't need to fly over in this day & age, but I do think Rodgers will be sacked very very soon

Hopes raised to be inevitably dashed.
