Superb stuff from the boss. Reading this in the Mirror:: http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/luis-suarez-daniel-sturridge-told-2275178 “Neither Luis or Daniel will be the main man. This isn’t the type of club for egos. It’s a club where players get told where to play.
“We don’t mollycoddle them here. They are all expected to come in and do a job. If they want to be the superstar, if they want to be the individual, then they can go elsewhere. It’s about the team here.”Really hoping this doesn't fail under the man. I'm actually starting to feel very proud of the club under his tenure.
Government is not reason; it is not eloquent; it is force. Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master.

He's a very impressive guy. I want us to succeed under him. I really do, and I think we can. Hopefully we can keep our streak alive until Suarez comes back, and then his return catalyzes a strong run to december.

Hmmm, I like Rodgers playing style but really wish he could control his mouth a bit more. Those kind of comments bother me and could get some players backs up. After all players are human and need encouragement and praise when they make an effort and when they do well. Singling out players by name like that, for those kind of comments are counter productive in my opinion.

I think it helps to keep some journos in their place before they start clamouring for the next Suarez story. If we were to crash and burn v Swansea the press would soon be on about Suarez needed back this and goal drought that. It also keeps Suarez in his place and anybody else who thinks that they are going to take on the role that Gerrard has had over the past 10 years. It is a team game and he is getting a good tune out of them at the moment but he needs more.

What he told DS is even more impressive - something along the lines that he should not come to liverpool unless he was committed to a cause.
classic, almost Shanks-like....

sorry but its only the points at the end of the season that talk for me. we have had a good start, long may it last, but raffa was as silver tongued as they get and everyone bought into it, even when things were going tiits up.
im still extremely wary of rodgers, i think he is a great coach, but not sure he has the character to run with the big boys and everytime we put any kind of run together last year, just as momentum was starting to gather, we made a complete bollx of it and thats what a manager with real character can avoid. BR hasnt done it yet.
Luis Garcia, He drinks sangria
He came from Barca, to bring us Joy
He's five foot seven, he's football heaven
please don't take my Luis away.

Rodgers as far as I am concerned has achieved nothing whatsoever yet. So to compare him to Shankly, clough, busby, ferguson is completely barking mad.

Shankly built Liverpool and created a dynasty of successors to promote from within. Nobody will ever do that at any club ever again.
Clough, Busby, Ferguson may have built new sides from scratch but none anywhere near Shankly in terms of leaving a legacy.
