Contradicting yourself yet again.

You panned BR earlier in the season for playing weak teams in Europe before games against the Top 4 saying it wouldn't matter to our season if we lost those games.

Now you are condemning him for not trying to win EVERY game.

You're consistent, I will give you that.

Consistently erratic.

fielding a weak team before a ball has even been kicked is a defeatist attitude to me, I said getting beat by the top four is not so important because it wont define our season, I never said we should'nt take top four games serious... [/quote]

It's called player management and those "weaker" teams did enough to keep us in both the UEFA Cup and the FA Cup! Or am I mistaken and have we been knocked out of those tournaments?

lets see if you can win it by using those tactics then...


I think he will select the best players suited for each game depending on the opposition we face game by game! Doesn't necessarily mean the team will be weaker!

I think BR is doing well considering he is rebuilding the squad which is very thin. If we start to defeat teams above us in the table it will add to his credibility for sure. Unlike the fact that he is not scared to make early changes to alter the outcomes of games instead of waiting until its too late.

Pretty happy with things and seeing good progression and improvement!

i think that's more to do with sterling seeing 1 -usually 2- players right on top of him who are much bigger than him. i do remember rodgers telling him to stop the fancy sh!t against city at half time. so maybe there is something in what you say.

i'm actually contented with rodgers as manager; has he set the world alight? no. did we expect him, or any other manager to? no. he is getting the best out of every player. our football is night from day compared to the last couple of seasons. in 23 PL games we're only 7 goals behind our total PL goals last season. our home form is coming around finally. there is not 1 thing i like more about last season than this season.
