In particular this bit...

Rodgers was evidently frustrated he had not secured a player he said would have been a “perfect” addition. “No, it wasn’t a football one [decision] and I don’t really want to go into it.
"That’s for us as a club really,” he said


He's having issue's with JWH / FSG. He alluded to this last Summer if I recall..

Could he walk out? Or perhaps should he?

I don't see him being here next year unless we are 5th at WORST and have a decent cup run.

Whats best for him? To stand his ground and walk out on the club?

I honestly don't think he would walk out on the club but perhaps he should? We have not spent a single penny net this summer. Usually we'd have around £20-£30m to spend. Plus where's that £50m from the new TV deal?

We've reduced the playing staff and reduced the wage bill even further...

Last year it was the Dempsey and Siggy saga.. This year it's Mickey Mouse / Costa / Bernard / Willian. The same thing is happening all over again.

Once bitten twice shy FSG might be but would anyone think that BR would be right to walk out say if Suarez leaves and no-one BIG coming in his place?

What's the man to do? Lead a team he knows will NOT qualify and meet his owners expectations for a season to be fired come what may?




Where is he going to walk to? Can't see this happening.

I think at the moment Rodgers holds the cards. If he threatened to leave through lack of backing FSG could of course call his bluff but who would they then turn to?

Liverpool are not in the champions league and the previous manger resigned through lack of backing. Not exactly an attractive prospect is it?

So I think Rodgers is in position to play hardball with the tight wads running the ship at anfield
