KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Would you sack Rodgers?

well great if that happened but at least it would be a winner and not someone who has failed in the past.

As much as you like to do it, there's no comparison between dalglish's last season in charge and Benitez's......

-With Kenny, he had fully supportive new owners who backed him to the hilt and gave him a fortune to spend on players.

-With Rafa, he was dragged into a boardroom war amidst the turmoil of the fans turning on the owners and trying to get the club sold. Furthermore he had his transfer fund drastically reduced and was told to sell before he could buy, because Purslow had bought robbie keane against Rafa's wishes! (purslow was also responsible for the joe cole signing - luckily for dalglish, never had to deal with him)

Come their respective ends, neither did enough to keep their jobs but they 'failed' under very different circumstances. Rafa's decline was fully understandable considering what was going on, but I still cannot see how KD made such a hash of things under perfect working conditions and operating with a blank cheque book.

Some say that bringing back an ex-manager is foolish. The only time that I'm aware of where it has failed so drastically is when Kenny came back. He's an exception, not the rule......and just because HE failed it doesn't necessarily mean that no club can ever reappoint and ex-manager and expect success.

Bring back rafa

Rafa has done nothing since he left to suggest that he has anything to offer Liverpool football club as a going concern,he is in the past now.

Totally agree with you, he didn't do much at Inter and is not doing great at Chelsea. If he is that great he will become the permanent manager of Chelsea.

Coming back to the tread, I would not sack BR today, but would wait till the end of the season to decide. I would sack him if we finish below 7th. Even then, i would sack BR only if I could get Jose or Klopp or Blanc, no need to replace an unproven manager by another one.

So Faz i take it you have all through your life been a complete success, never failed at anything, nice to know

He's won things at every club he has managed. No point in commenting on his chelsea interim appointment - there is only so much you can do when your days are numbered before you even start and some of the players probably feel the same way as the fans.

It was only a few years ago that he had us ranked as the number 1 club in the world. Where have the likes of dalglish, hodgson and rodgson got us? If you don't like him that's fine, but don't pretend that your decision has anything to do with his abilities.

I do like him, I just dont think he has anything to offer us.

well that your logic , but is really appointing a manager who failed a forward move really ??? , its not like mr benitez has been pulling up trees in his last two jobs now is it never mind the mess he left LFC in , but if a manager like jose isnt good enough for you and you like failed ex managers then thats up to you .

ok if want to believe all that fine .
