KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum BR could be sacked at end of the season

You really haven't got a clue have you, and surprisingly you always appear on this forum when things are bad.

Jay Spearing is struggling in the Championship
Martin Kelly has been injured for pretty much 3 seasons
Peterson did what apart from score from a couple of yards out in pre-season?
Coady's level is never Premiership, as he proved at Sheffield Utd
I think Wilson is back up in Scotland which says it all.
Shelvey is doing ok at Swansea but that's about it.

Your talk of him ruining our youth system is ridiculous

A good post spice boys and well argued I am slightly more optimistic Rodgers did a fantastic job last year and there is still time to right it and those players to perform. But you have to say given what we have seen this season there are grave cause for concern and the transfer policy leaves me frankly speechless I cannot fathom what we are trying to do

So you think that Spearing, Shelvey, Robinson, Coady, Kelly, Wilson and Peterson were players to take us to the next level?

Seriously….

You're missing the point entirely.

Shelvey was scouted and signed by Rafa as Gerrard's natural successor, he showed the agression, passing style and long range shots that made Gerrard famous. Rafa gave him his shot, he was ridiculously good when he went on loan in the championship, He showed promise under Kenny, as well as in Rodgers first season, instead of naturally replacing Gerrard, Rodgers shipped Shelvey out for next to nothing, last season he outscored Henderson and Allen, both of whom are first choice players under Rodgers.

Again Spearing was given a shot by Rafa, Hodgson and Kenny, he was starting to really impress in the holding midfield position, on loan in Rodgers first season he was named as Bolton's player of the season as well as North West Championship Player of the season. Why wasn't he given a shot under Rodgers? given Lucas' injury problems and no real backup players in that position, instead he was sold for around 1m. He has since become captain of Bolton and improved even further.

Danny Wilson was signed by Rafa and given a chance by Hodgson and Kenny and he was impressing, Rodgers got rid of him at first chance, he was one of the best defenders in the SPL last season. Instead we have spent over £60 million on defenders.

Despite Kelly's injury problems, he was [oops] hot in the right back role, many people saying he was better than Johnson, he's even better as a central defender. He got a great number of games under Hodgson and Kenny, again Rodgers shipped him out for next to nothing.

Coady and Peterson are highly rated youth players who didn't get a chance, but impressed when they did play.

If people are happy getting rid of our homegrown talent for next to no money at all and favour signing foreign youngsters between 10-20 million, then fine, but I'm not. When you think of the best Liverpool players in history or the best Arsenal, Man Utd players, you always think of their homegrown players, you don't think of their highly priced foreign players.

Jay Spearing never impressed in a Liverpool shirt and looked completely out of his depth, games used to by pass him. Bolton and him and performing well this season aren't they? Not even close to being good enough!

Being the best defender in Scotland is like being the tallest midget, hardly something to boast about! He also plays in the Scottish version of the Championship with Hearts and you think he is good enough for us?

You say that Coady and Peterson didn't get a chance but impressed when they did play? How does that work? In Coady's case he may have looked ok at Sheffield Utd, a league one side!

Kelly at one stage looked very good but you can't keep investing in a player who played around 30 games in 6 or 7 years at the club.

Shelvey is the only one you can make a case for.

The way things are at the 'mo we may as well be playing in league one.

Anyone in 'ere gorra a pilots licence and access to a small 'plane for this saturday afternoon btw?

I know a couple of manc fans that do!

BR OUT.

Moysee still looking for a job?
