I dont trust him with the suarez money frown (we all know his going to leave sooner or later)

[size:11pt]Brendan Rodgers bought 19 players for £134,780,000[
his spent a whopping 135m and overall his signings have been below par

am i the only one worried?

You're worrying about the wrong issue, the problem isn't Rodgers, it's the silly policy and the committee. They only buy the cheapies and avoid Rodgers first preferences, with the exception of Lallana, and they had to do that one because of CL. And the impending transfer of Suarez.


They had to do that to be able to stay within FFP, with CL revenue is due to rise, thus they can spend more on players. Also true that they always said the wanted a self sustaining club and if there was no FFP, they probably wouldn't have bought LFC.

doesn't matter ..he has done a brilliant job and he gets players in who can play the attacking footy he wants to play..i think lalanna will be awesome.



Saying that if he signs balotelli to replace suarez then he will total derail everything he has done on a player that turns up 1 in 10 . facepalm as he loses his job

Balotelli is the worst player possible to have at your club. Tears apart the dressing room and inconsistent where ever he goes. Perfect for Arsenal!

Balotelli would cause more damage with his attitude than Luis could ever do with his gnashers.


That job interview was going so well until I realized I was fukked up on acid in the middle of a cornfield naked and talking to a scarecrow.

So even though he's spent that dosh - he's had to scrimp because of what happened with Comoli and Dalglish.
you make a fair point, rodgers wanted to sign the armenian player whos at dortmund now, william, and diego costa - all have been successful last season
