I am showing support. I have quietly watched the whole episode of pre-season and the players he's bought and reserved judgement until today. It was a terrible performance mate. I was there and saw Reds leaving early. That didn't happen at ANY POINT last season. It was a debarcle. Why take off Lucas? EVERYTHING fell apart after that. Hodgson didn't get a chance and we're ruing that, but he was a proven manager. Rodgers is not proven, it's a risk and we can't afford to do that. Other clubs are getting away from us.
It was disappointing yes... but there were so many games like that last season and you can't say this is worse. Spurs also lost their opening game - Arsenal were held at home. Few teams come out firing on all cylinders mate... it takes a few games to get the fitness, rhythm and teamwork going. Allen and Borini are both new... and it'll take time to get this new system going. [/quote]
Spurs weren't dragged from pillar to post. Arsenal looked dangerous and SUnderland are a good side. I think we'll struggle against them when we play them. In fact, I think we'll struggle away from home in general. We need to make Anfield a fortress starting next week against City.
