Brendan Rodgers

[Leyton388]

Doesn't read well if these comments are true, surely a manager who are judged on results needs to be allowed to bring the players they want in. I get it if the budget isn't there we can't bring players in but buying players he doesn't really want is just crazy.

It wouldn't surprise me if it is down to Ayre. After all we have absent owners and he is running the club on a day to day basis. I don't trust the guy at all to be our MD.

I can only go on what I've heard about Ayre and that actually he's a sound bloke and clearly loves the club has its best interests at heart. Obviously best interests don't always transfer into what is actually best for the club

All of which was said about Purslow when he first arrived.

[RichC]

Well there are those more in the know than me on here about him and they seem to have good words to say on him, easy to guess at who is calling the shots on this type of thing but really it's all guess work and actually those comments could be made by journos to drum up interest, wouldn't be the first time

Lets not forget about liverpool's number 1 fan David Moores.

Wonder what he spent that extra £8m on?

Maybe Sahin is also not a Rodgers signing? would certainly explain his continuous exclusion

[Neil Young]

Is it really any different from any sizeable company anywhere? All managers work within constraints.

[Leyton388]

TBH If the likes of Assaidi and Sahin are not players rodgers wanted then fair play to him for not giving them a game.

We snapped up the Man City scouts, and just look at those tweets. It's as though we have a 'committee' which decides who we sign and don't sign, something contradictory to what Rodgers wanted (remember he wanted to have the final say on this committee).

We should've just stuck with the DOF model and we'd probably be better off right now.

I rate Leon Britton.

If he's got them though, he might as well use them.

[Leyton388]

Whats Carlton Cole doing these days?

Yeah that is true but it is nice to see Rodgers up for the fight if that was the case.

Is what I said earlier. He's was dead against it, signed his contract and found himself without the final say anyway.

Financial constraints are perfectly acceptable in football but someone deciding a manager can't have who he wants is worrying, he has little chance of achieving what he wants if he can't sign who he wants.

[Leyton388]

Board level interference is very worrying and was a massive part of the other two cunts regime.
