Brendan Rodgers

[Alex]

If this was aimed at me Alex I think I was only pointing out that in our first 22 games we conceded 28 goals last season but in our last 16 games we conceded 15.

Fourth place is by no means guaranteed and given our squad and the squads around us, I think we'll probably not finish fourth even though it will be close.

I really, really hope we do and if we don't I wont call for Rodgers' head who is doing a good job.

No, wasnt aimed at you mate. I didn't even see yours when I posted.

Does put things into perspective though doesnt it?

[Norbs]

To be fair, Tottenham and Arsenal have also improved, I think we'll end up sixth this season due to our limited squad.

As have City, Chelsea, Everton, Newcastle, Southampton...

[el matador]

I dont feel sorry for him per se. I think he has done well for sure. But there are some question marks for me also.

No doubt he has improved us. But there seems to be a reluctane sometimes to play players signed by committee, thinking Sakho, Alberto, Aspas. Sakho was left out of games after a great performance for France for no obvious reason

I think there is still a tactical question mark too

there are questions over every manager in the league. When city lost away at cardiff all the city fans were hitting the phone ins saying pelegrini knows nothing, hes not as good as mancini etc... but i agree that there are plenty of unanswered questions about Rodgers.

But the turn around this season has been pretty amazing and he deserves credit for that.

The reason for not playing most of the 'committee' signings is probably they arent good enough. Bar sakho the others havent made any impact whatsoever.

If BR is the man they want to take us forward for the next 5 years then they have to give him more to work with. I think he did waste the £30m on his first three signings but its in the past and the club need to bring in more players like sturridge, coutinho, mignolet and sakho who are ready to impact on the first team now.

the lad niguez had his arse handed to him yesterday and he's obviously not ready for la liga let alone our league. whereas both fernando and m'vila are.

Don't think it was all the City fans just the same knee jerk supporters who phone into 606 or Talksport.

Feel sorry for him.

He looked a little sombre yesterday and normally hes pretty bubbly. We need to be careful because spurs will be sniffing around again this summer and as he will be in the last year of his contract so the buyout will be nothing.

And lets face it, he will have a much better squad (maybe not 1st team) at spurs. If were building for the future and hes the manager fsg want then theyve got to help him.

I don't think we need to be worried about losing him to Spurs.

BRENDAN RODGERS believes he had a “close shave” by rejecting Tottenham and claimed the club’s revolving-door policy with managers made Liverpool a more attractive proposition.

Rodgers was targeted by Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy, inset, as a potential replacement for Harry Redknapp in 2012, but says he is glad he overlooked them in favour of a switch from Swansea to become the new manager at Liverpool.

The chance to build up Liverpool and working for realistic owners helped to make up his mind.

Spurs appointed Andre Villas-Boas but sacked him this week after Rodgers’ Liverpool beat them 5-0 at White Hart Lane last Sunday.

Asked how he viewed events at Tottenham in the wake of Villas-Boas’s dismissal, Rodgers said: “A close shave.

“They are a great club and one of the things I looked at was their history. They’d had 11 managers in 18 years there.

“I needed to create something. I needed to go to a club who were going to give me that opportunity.”

BR talks about transfers during today's Presser

I can see why a lot of LFC fans are frustrated or anxious about the lack of signings. This looks like genuinely the best chance we've had of breaking back into the top 4 & i think we would all be gutted if not spending in this window cost us that chance. IMO the current squad will struggle to get top 4, unless we can keep everyone fully fit.. which just doesn't happen unfortunately.

Wait for a few more days & see what happens god only knows what mayhem is going on behind the scenes, but yup i would very much prefer if we did some good business
