Let me help you.

-In the last 18 months Rodgers got his club promoted to the premier league and then finished in 11th place spending very little money in the process. This was well above expectation - they were favourites for relegation....

-In the last 18 months, Dalglish took us to 7th and spent £115m to bring us back down to 8th.....

Hope that helps.

Well the season before Roy came to us, he did as well as if not better than BR even winning the best manager award. We all know what he did in his 6 months spell... Anyway, BR is our manager now, I really hope he becomes a great success though not convinced.

I'm very happy about this. This was the guy I hoped for all along and I think he's going to do well with LFC. Young, hungry, innovative...I think the players will like him and that's most important. He has to be careful he doesn't lose the veterans like AVB did at Chelsea, but I think Rodgers is much smarter than that.

Very hopeful for the club moving forward.

Has there been an official confirmation of him being our manager? I can't find any official statement anywhere?

I am absolutely delighted at the turn of events. It's the first time I've been excited about our prospects since being on these forums.

My worry was that we'd watch BR join another big club and build a dynasty akin to Ferguson's. If we'd had the money we might have pitched to Mourinho but I think this may turn out rather better in the end.

From my perspective, he has excellent credentials. The only way we're going to win anything is to get players to over-achieve through good management/coaching. I think he might be one of the few that can achieve this and I'm glad we're going to give him a chance.

Saying that, the challenge is enormous. For example, I can't see where Carroll is going to fit in (Molby's article is spot on) but I never did see how he'd fit in so, in some ways, nothing's changed there.

Swansea weren't exactly 'easy to break down' so it's not as if he can't instil resilience and he got them into the prem playing expansive football from the off.

Given our circumstances, the lack of funds, the fruitless spending last year, the state of the squad, I can really understand his initial reticence. It might be his only chance to make it in the big time and it could cast a long shadow on him if he fails. It's a gamble for him too. Had Harry gone to England, I saw BR at Spurs - working with a squad of pacy, technically able players. That was a nightmare scenario, in my mind.

But, in the end, he's come to us. F________g brilliant, I say! I can't understand any negativity.

What would another manager have brought, other than a shopping list we can't afford? FSG aren't going to provide billions, we have to face that. In recruiting Rodgers they've, to me anyway, shown that they have some vision.

Interesting times ahead, I think.
