Brendan Rodgers

And if is true, then there's a dirty mole in the camp.

/\ That's got to be a load of bollocks.

Agreed - probably a load of **** (i.e. players revolt). However, I hope BR did have a go at the team for not performing against Utd and Arsenal.

[Mark79]

There's bound to be a lot of frustration about after a couple of costly defeats but that's natural.

But trying to tack on Sterling's contract stance, Mario (again) and even Gerrard leaving and saying it amounts to a dressing room crisis is clearly a load of balls.

If there were any truth in this 'exclusive', there'd be more details on the supposed row and less of the padding.

I'm happier hearing this than not hearing it. Some noses need putting out of joint.

Goes without saying that when a football club isn't being successful there will be ones who have an axe to grind. Mario Balotelli is clearly one who isn't happy, there will obviously be loads of others right about now.

But were the last two performances what we've come to expect? Of course not. We were a disgrace, so it's easy to see what the articles are coming out now.

what a load of bollix ... if our illustrious captain did not act like a ****ing 16 year old .. we could be going into that Arsenal game above United and with all the talk of us being the form team in Europe ..... but no and now the predictable we are not winning the world is ending ****e gets rolled out

You might say its ****e, but stories often get leaked for a reason. Now Rodgers is coming out with stuff about how it's difficult to recruit players without the top 4 and how great Arsenals squad is etc.

Managing expectations or feeling like a dead man walking? Bottom line is that when you lose at big clubs things get ugly. I think Rodgers still has a job on to convince he should be here for the next number of years.

It's the smaller teams where we've let ourselves down in terms of not getting into the top 4. Ferguson had a period of time where his record was abysmal, but he kept winning titles by smashing the rest of the league.

Aston Villa (0-1,H), Everton (1-1, H), Hull (0-0, H), West Ham (3-1, A), Sunderland (0-0,H), Leicester (0-0, H) were missed opportunities to get victories, and these were before the 3-4-2-1 formation change.

I must have been watching different games. The Leicester home game I watched was 2-2.

[Redspin]

Only direct quotes are from Rodgers himself commenting on a top 4 finish.

Typical Mirror hatchet job.

Over the last 50 years or so that I've been aware of the unreadable rag, it's been called the Daily Manc for a very good reason

But nobody has leaked anything ...

This is nonsense

Anybody who gives it credence smells of elder berries

“Liverpool is a great club. But, of course, players want to play at the top level of the game and if you’re not in the Champions League it makes it difficult for you"

But we were in the CL, and we still didn't sign any players that have added the quality needed to stay there!

[Bender]

Just what we need before the Blackburn game.......
Brendan Rodgers is facing a major dressing room crisis at Liverpool.

The Anfield boss called a meeting after training at Melwood yesterday and accused several players of not playing for him.

Some senior players spoke up angrily against Rodgers as they were left incensed at the accusation.

But now the dressing room has been left annoyed by Rodgers amid a growing crisis at Anfield.

Club captain Gerrard is leaving the club at the end of the season while Liverpool are facing contract stand-offs with England stars Raheem Sterling and Jordan Henderson.

Rodgers also said £16million Italy striker Mario Balotelli claimed he took it upon himself to decide he was not fit to play at Arsenal.

“Liverpool is a great club. But, of course, players want to play at the top level of the game and if you’re not in the Champions League it makes it difficult for you.”
