Brendan Rodgers

[Yozza]

Very slanted view by Rodgers (unsurprisingly)

Completely ignores some of the times when the committee has gone out and got his first choice players and they have virtually all to a man been utter ****e

Rodgers can **** off complaining as far as I am concerned

I watched the interview on Sunday & it was so painfully obvious he was talking out of his backside....

King Bull****ter

[vlahka]

Used to make me want to break his **** every time we scored and he did the shankly pose.

Brendan Rodgers: “I thought we were getting Alexis Sanchez, but we got Balotelli and Ricky Lambert instead. Dele Alli wanted to join Liverpool, but the club failed in doing so."


I never liked Rodgers, the guy just rubbed me up the wrong way, however, you have to look at this and think that the whole transfer situation at the club is a mess.

Rodgers problem was that he always wanted something else/more. He never seemed pragmatic enough to work with what he was given. Which ultimately was his downfall.

If he could have gotten a tune out of Balotelli, Markovic, Lambert, Lovren, Lallana and all that lot. He would still have a job. But because they were not first choice. He couldnt give a **** it seems.

He was given a 'list' of players and surprisingly it didn't contain Messi, Ronaldo, Neymar and Sanchez because none of them wanted to come to Liverpool, Brendan!

Obviously he's not telling the whole story because he wants to come out looking good from this. What he's neglected in adding is that the lists he had to work from were probably very alike the ones Pardew, Monk, etc, also worked from.

And on those lists would have been the new Coutinho/Sturridges, i.e. Wijnaldum, Cabaye, Kante, Ayew, Payet, Bojan, Shakiri, Konoplyanka, etc, etc, etc. As he always had the final say from the list why did he proceed on picking Balotelli, Benteke, Lovren, etc? Because he couldn't stand proving the transfer committee scouting works (i.e. Coutinho, Sturridge - two players he didn't know about or want).

I think Rodgers is a really good manager. As he grows older I won't be surprised if he does take one team into CL qualification in Europe. However, that will only come about when he's matured and stops acting the petulant youngster he seems to be. I know because at 43 I'm still an annoying, punchable and mostly unreasonable petulant c*nt myself.

It was even more predictable as soon as he signed his new contract in the December, so we definitely had a good seven months to prepare for him leaving.

The club completely failed to put in a place a robust plan to compensate for Suarez leaving, even more damning when you consider we'd just finished runners-up, with CL footy guaranteed and a budget of around £100m. Just sticking all your eggs in the Alexis Sanchez basket doesn't constitute a robust plan.

****ing up so spectacularly takes some doing - even for us!

Frodo doesn't do reason Kev.

Losing Suarez obviously caught us by surprise and there was no contingency plan to replace him. Sanchez should have been the absolute No. 1 priority that summer.

Not great reading is it

Remember who's saying it though. Bodgers would say whatever he could to make himself look better.

[Harv]

Suarez nearly won us the league. Brendans tactics involve clapping like a seal on the sidelines.

Cant believe people even debate it. 2014 was Suarez. He was that ****ing good. If he hadn't been suspended at the start we'd have won the league easy.

[Harv]

I ****ing hate Rodgers.

Who hates him more, you or me

[Harv]

Maybe Carragher will have a go tomorrow on Monday Night Football, but not sure he'll be too aggressive in his questioning.

Im hoping he's so ****ing angry about the defeat to the mancs due to the cluster**** of mediocrity he assembled that he chins Bodgers the moment he starts talking. Right in the beak

Brendan Rodgers on "Young boy Vardy", " He's only going to get better and better ". Vardy is 29

Bloody comedian

[EwarWoo]

Choosing a player from a list is the final say. Its a limited choice but still his choice.
