KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Typical LFC after the lord mayor's show

He probably told them to get a grip and go batter them like we did Everton.

it didnt work. needs to say something different.

i actually think he didnt know how to beat west brom. just didnt know how to go out and kill them off.

How can his preparation change their desire? You're just making assumptions to put the blame on Rodgers as you always do. We don't know how he prepared them or if it was different. We don't know what he said to them. Maybe they ALL got complaisant and thought they'd walk it?

we have to be quicker..sterling was the only one playing at the correct pace. when we slow down games we are awful...the failure to sign a midfield player is shambolic..buts whats even worse is we weren't actually trying to sign a central midfield player.

What's the lrd mayor's show?

its his JOB to make sure they dont get complacent, and its his job to ensure they go out with the right attitude and tactics.

im blaming him because its his responsibility!! if it isnt then what is the point in having a manager? this is also not the first time this has happeed, ive made this observation before so i have identified the pattern, claiming i just blame rodgers for the hell of it makes no sense.

We've been having results like this for years, long before Rodgers. I think it's a whole club mentality thing.

Yes Rodgers has a responsibility and will ultimately live or die by what his team do but the players also have a responsibility to play. And I'm sure he didn't make them complacent. I'm sure he didn't stand in the dressing room telling them they'll smash them.

there is something wrong tho cause that free kick smacked of negativity.

he just didnt get it right, ad he didnt respond to the problem either, in saying that i appreciate the squad lacks depth.

but we got too deep, too defensive and it led to toure being a complete panic merchant. (still cant get over how stupid it was). if the team isnt prepared or are in a bolx frame of mind then its up to the manager to either pick up on it before the game or deal with it at half time. ferguson was the master of it at half time ad thats what rodgers failed to do today.

yep, and wba i think got a wiff of that uncertainty.
