It's the poor season and silly jibes that have done him more harm than good. He's made digs at United, Saints and Spurs this season. Each and every one of them has come back at him. he tried to make Balotelli a scapegoat earlier one. Can't excuse this on last season, youve simply not made the most of this season at all, failing on all fronts.

Yes, i agree with this - Like i said, no doubting Rodgers has made mistakes during his tenure and this year

if he had a system that worked why does he keep changing back to his tippy tappy ****. jheez your the only one that is still falling for rodgers bullshit. btw the league has not got harder, its a **** poor league which shows in english clubs abysmal europe records for the past couple of seasons.

There are reasons for previous times.. the past few games i do completely agree with you though. That made no sense at all

I'm falling for the fact in the Premier League Rodgers has been our one of our best managers for the past 20 years

It does make me laugh reading some of the comments going on. Rodgers has been our best manager for a while. Whist it has been a poor season, we have lost our two top scorers from last season. Admittedly, we have made some poor signings, but I'm not sure how much input Rodgers has had on them. We have a history of buying **** players even before Rodgers (we bought Djimi Traore and el Hadji Diouf ffs)

He easily deserves anther season. Injures have been a major problem this season too. Hopefully in the summer we will invest wisely and do a lot better next time around.

I'm not saying you're fickle, I'm saying we're not fickle either since people here doubted Rodgers for a good while now, last season included. :P



But it is. How many solid players do you really have? Its been 3 years and half of your squad needs replacement, including whole bunch of Rodgers' signings.

How is the league harder? He took over at a time when English clubs started to suck donkeys *** in Europe. Your past managers had to play in a league where you couldn't keep an english club out of Champions League final for like 10 years. He played two seasons now in a league where United, the dominant force, have completely collapsed.

He had it easy, far as I'm concenred.

My bad then, but I seen very little criticism last year until we didn't win the league

Thing is, this has been a cycle for the past 10 years at least.. Rebuild, do well, sell our best player/s and then have to rebuild again.. Rodgers could have done things slightly different but there is no coincidence in that our form has followed a similar pattern for the past 10 years or so

The league is tougher because Man City have become yet another team Liverpool have no chance of competing with and financially there is a bigger gap than ever. Add United and Chelsea to that and fourth place seems the highest they could possibly achieve. Not to mention you then have Arsenal and Tottenham competing for that with you

Barring odd circumstances, money wins titles and buys success so there is no surprise the richest teams are the most successful

Do you guys rate Jon Flanagan? There is news that he is out for 6 to 9 months

Think he was very good last season and his desire/fight is something we have missed this season.. Feel bad for lad having finally made it into first team reckoning

Its amazing how quickly things can change in football. Last season Brendan was the messiah and now it was all Suarez and a fluke. Earlier in the season he was a fraud yet just over a month ago we were the form team in Europe, yet alone the Premier League picking up the highest points-per-game average since christmas and he was again one of the better young managers in the game. And now? back to being a fraud a month later

I cant help but think how fickle fans are nowadays it is scary. A completely unexpected and fantastic 2nd place finish will only hinder Rodgers and ultimately end up losing him his job

Liverpool have been nothing more than an average team for the past 20 years and people forget that - Our average position the last 20 years? 5th place.

Last 10 years finishing positions in the league? (2nd, 7th, 8th, 6th, 7th, 2nd, 4th, 3rd, 3rd, 5th) and those better finishes were because Man City are not the team they are today

I've not turned on Rodgers at all but the decision to play Balotelli the other day does anger you, as he continues to give nothing to the team, this season we have a few problems, and like I said, theres a long list!
 
have any of you guys seen vietto play, apparently were linked with him. i could obviously watch a youtube reel but hey that could make glen johnson look good.

Not seen much but perhaps a little too lightweight at the moment

And that face would change to Klopp should he take over and finish below 4th next season haha

Maybe. Maybe not. Klopp is very likeable dude, so there's that. Rodgers has charisma of Sponge Bob, which certainly doesn't help him.

Very good imo one of Europes top young STR atm. Seen nearly all his games, is fairly slight but is strong considering with that low centre of gravity. Anyways like I said agreement already in place with At Madrid, Ballague confirmed on Revsista about 4 weeks ago.

Majority of Liverpool fans are terrible when it's not going their way, regardless of the manager unfortunately
