KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Skrtel bid rejected

Since Rafa left we have gone from bad to unrecognizably mediocre in terms of stature so your "lol" is somewhat self inflicting,however I'm not interested in discussing a man who is no longer connected with the club and certainly will not be crying over it. With all due respect it seems to be you who is crying that everyone does not love rodgers. Tell me why everyone has to like him? Some fans think we are still a top club and expected a Mourinho type not a one season wonder ala Phil Brown, or Hodgson.

Rata was a top coach but our decline has been happening for 20 odd years, it has just accelerated during and after the Hicks / Gillett era

and brave has what to do with it? Wind your neck in sonshine. Picking holes in a manager? He finished mid table and I said he did? How is that picking holes. You sound ridiculous making stuff up. And if you disagree just say you think hes gonna be a top manager or a good manager or whatever and your reasons why. No need to be a child about it. Im entitled to my opinion as much as you.

And Im a loyal fan for longer than 25 years so looks like I just came back at you with your pointless statement. If i think things are bad but still keep my season ticket and go to every game I can, I'm as much a fan as anyone else. There's your definition matey boy

I agree he is more proven than Dalglish in the modern era. Also I'm excited to see his brand of football. But he is still unproven and thats all i said about him. Don't know why cj through a hissy fit about me stating a fact.

Is Mr Kent Rodgers Mum? Why is he having a period over someone saying our manager is unproven? He keeps bandying about 'picking holes' but no one has done that on this thread? :S Rather than getting overly sensitive about a comment (which can't really be argued as he is 'unproven' as of yet) maybe you should concentrate on putting your own opinion about him forward and the reasons why like those who disagree with you do.

And for what its worth I'm very excited by the Rodgers appointment. He did really well with Swansea, he's said all the right things in the press conference. I'm excited to see a more attacking style of football. I believe all our players (well most of the better ones) will make a step up under him. I am slightly concerned over who we are being linked with, but its jsut concern as media often get it wrong, and even then Rodgers has found semi gem for a mid table side, maybe he can find a proper one for an aspiring top 6 side.

That Kent is how you put your point across as an adult.

I like the style Rodgers brings to the football and also how he goes about things and that was why he was my first choice of those in the frame with Martinez a close 2nd for the same reason.
As to whether he will succeed in bringing us back into the top spot or even top 4 I don't know, but I am optimistic and I am hopefull. LFC fans should always give a new manager a chance, and why some refuse to do that is a mystery to me, perhaps it's just attention seeking.

swap him for adam johnson , or strike up some deal with them both in it , would be great right

If they were willing to pay 15m for him then there better be someone else coming with if we're swapping him for Johnson.

i think adam johnson plus 10 million...thats a done deal...:)

Don't want him to go. But if he does we should be asking £25m+ and get all we can for the lad.

Then if we want Johnson we go and offer stupid money like under £10m because nobody else out there is going to pay more than that plus his wages to get him. They either don't need him or could not afford him. Then of course there is the other scenario where Johnson would not want to go to certain clubs.

Keep it as two separate deals and screw them over on both.

We are in that position now where perhaps the top players will not come to us. We will always get outbid in any battle with Citeh or Chavs. What we do offer to the right type of player prepared to graft is a first team place and the adoration of the best fans in the country.

Perhaps the better option would be to employ all the Newcastle scouts and then get the next batch of Ba/Cisse/Krul/Cabaye/Tiote's.
