But it's rare that a good manager will make a mistake with regards to a player he has trained or played before, ie, knows him inside out. I was surprised that he thought Borini would solve our goal scoring problem (we all knew that this was our priority and I assume BR also knew that)


Its hard to judge Borini thus far, as has been said he is young and needs time to settle in. Also I think BR believed he would be getting someone in to replace Carroll when he went out for loan.

Not trying to get bounced out, we are competing in it with a weakened side. Did a trophy (nearly 2) save the last manager? No. League position is clearly the objective. Thus we are saving our stronger side for the objective.

I just cant fathom the feller out, he is Liverpool manager surely he wants to win trophies, is'nt that one of the reasons he came to the Club along with an obscene salary, managers and players normaly leave Clubs like Swansea City all due respect in order to improve there chances of winning a trophy, yet Rogers does'nt want to win them and instead wants to concentrate on finishing between 7th and 10th in the Premier League.
I still dont understand why Suarez was'nt playing, we only have one forward and he's that forward, Rogers rested him for the Chelsea game, a game we are highly unlikely to win anyway and a game in which if Suarez is booked he misses the Wigan Game the following week, the Wigan game is a game we have a good chance of winning as it is at home, we need to pick trophies and games we can win instead of concentrating on battles we cant.
wow didnt see this coming.

I believe that Brendan will be gone end of season as we will finish roughly where we are now. If he thinks that by playing reserves last night we have a chance against Chelsea then he is dilusional


Yes, sack another manager after one season, thats the way to go. He cannot be judged on the team he has inherited, only when he has been given time to form his own squad would it be fair. If you thought that he'd turn around our squad without backing from FSG then you were mistaken. If we continue to just sack managers surely it will deter other managers of quality coming in as they'll see us as wanting miracles without financial backing which just wont happen! As long as we see improvements from last season and that we are heading in the right direction then we (the fans) should be happy.


Agree as long as we improve over last season, nothing less.
