Brendan Rodgers

[Mark79]

A bit?? Thats effectively 6 players that offer zero attacking threat.

Its a defeatist, trying not to lose attitude that just doesn't compute with this club....or Rodgers supposed football "ethics".

He's pathetic. Ive properly done my arse with him now.

The 2 fullbacks were effectively playing as wingers though.

Moreno especially offered bucket loads of attacking threat, including a great pass for the assist.

[danperkins]

Totes. Watching us is akin to masochism at this point in time.

In fact **** that. Even the mere consideration that I may watch us probably counts

it ain't good for the soul that's for sure mate.

[Exiled_red]

How about giving Carragher a go?

Couldn't do any worse than what we've got.

At least he'd probably out Lovren straight away

I think our next manager needs to be someone of top quality who can get us competing again. The last 3 managerial appointments haven't done that and to be honest none of them were ever going to. Kenny was a proven manager but had been out of management for too long, Rodgers was/is an up and coming manager but with no proven track record, and Hodgson wtf were we thinking

I want someone like Rafa who has experience at the top level and plans everything in detail and is professional in the way he conducts himself and can get us competing for trophies again.

dont know if this has beep posted or not but its the opposite stat to the scoring 3 goals in a game.

in 3 years under brendan rodgers we have conceded 3 goals or more in a game 24 times (might be 26). Compare this to under the benitez reign when it was 9 times in 6 seasons.

the stats say we cant score 3 goals in a game and we cant stop conceding 3 goals a game.

20 odd times. Wow.

Kenny would get more from this group than they are currently producing for a few games while the club reappointed. I'm not sure that the will is there yet though as a change would require a complete rebuild of the back room system. We knew from the early games that we would get more of the same, and unless the team starts showing some will to fight for the shirt FSG are going to have their hands forced. I really hope they have a plan.

It certainly can get worse than it currently is, obviously.

Really like the idea of Ancelotti. Not sure if he's attainable but he's of the calibre we should be looking at. Klopp too, of course.

[SK]

Klopp for me. The man was made for managing clubs like Liverpool. So much heart and desire and that's why fans and players absolutely adore him.

How the hell can we be persisting with this ****e (the state of the club and our performances not the manager himself) and not go all out for Klopp is beyond me.

He's first choice for me too, followed by Ancelotti. The only thread of hope I'm clinging to is that Klopp wants a bit more time out.

I don't see us getting a caretaker in I imagine that we will either bring a new man in immediately (someone such as Klopp) or we will see the season out with Rodgers. - If we do that I dont think it will stay as bad as it has been recently I think if we did that we would ultimately look at finishing about 6th-8th again.

I' not so sure, I can see us being in real trouble and at least one another formation shift, the three at back will backfire at some point, then we'll revert back to four at the back and some sort of desperate hoofing. Besides the usual suspects, West Ham, Spurs, Everton, Swansea, Stoke, Southampton and Crystal Palace will all be fancying their chances to finish level or above us. I say that under Rodgers we could finish between 6th and 11th.

Yeah it would be nice if we just went the obvious proven route for once (if we do make a change). Instead of all this "we'll be so clever and try this" bollocks.

Our "worldwide MD search" led us as far as the office where Ian Ayre works. Our new manager search led us to a novice in Swansea. The new assistant O'Driscoll etc etc and I wont even start on the **** we get up to in the transfer market!

[el matador]

Also rumoured to be a one year pay off if sacked not the £7m as previously mentioned because we didn't get champions league. Not sure about this one.

Just that Clyne doesn't possess the attacking prowess that Moreno does. I thought he did reasonably well as wing back, but he played more like a traditional right back. Meant we looked somewhat lopsided, Moreno up the field, Clyne down it

3-5-2 in theory is an extremely attacking formation if you have quick attacking wingers, but I'm not sure that we play that way. It strikes me as more defensive, like Harv said we're basically playing with 6x defenders
