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. Or you could say it was a point more than last year. In fact we got four points from westbrom where last year we got nothing. It's a step in the right direction, with a little composure at the back it could have been a large stride. We cannot play well every week and whilst many were off colour we really should have been out of sight by halftime. With goal difference we are effectively 8 points above United and that's a big bonus with 14 games yet to play. It's not all bad!

If you want to compare with last year then you might also be happy to finish 6th, that would also be in the right direction.

BR was saying that the pitch was in awful condition, you cannot possibly play tiki taka on something like that, you can only play tika masala.

To progress you have to keep going forward. 4 points more than last year from two games is indeed progress. I heard that we are actually 13 points better off from the same fixtures. That would take us to 74 points if all results remain as before. This is indeed an improvement, whilst people analyse each game so closely you miss the bigger picture. The last 3 seasons we have been losing one in three games an now we are closer to one in five.

More genius hindsight on Koptalk I see.
If he'd changed the team and they'd drawn, imagine the stick he'd have got...
This is what happens when Luis has a quiet game. Games like this is when Kono or Salah might have come on and made a difference, esp Kono could have replaced Coutinho on the left. BR hasn't got the squad.

You were the one comparing with our last season WBA games which is by no means the bigger picture. Where was WBA last season are where are they right now?

From the start, we had the attitude of a team playing for the draw, as if WBA were Bayern fooking Munich. A draw was what we deserved. And yet, we could have escaped with the ugly win we needed if it weren't for Toure tiki-taka-ing inside the penalty area. At this level, you CANNOT make such mistakes, or I'll be playing for LFC.
