Yep, it needs sorting. Just can't see us beating anyone at the moment. I don't buy it that we bought bad players. Maybe the wrong players in some cases but they're just not working together for some reason.

I like Rodgers and hope he gets it right but we can't afford to keep hold just for the sake of it. If he can't turn it round then we need to bring in someone who can.

We need Sturridge back and one of Allen or Can to return to midfield and we'll be much much better.

We're were always going to struggle with both Suarez and Sturridge out of the team and I think the biggest mistake in the summer was not buying a similar type forward (quick/mobile) as back up in the summer. Maybe adding another central midfielder also an error but we have just been unlucky to lose Allen and Can at the same time.

I'm sure we'll improve but we had best hurry as the season could be almost over for us within a month if we don't get our asses in gear!

Mignolet - the main cause of our defensive frailities, no team has ever defended well with a dodgy keeper behind them.

BR - We will see what he is made of now without the briliant Suarez.



As much as I hate to admit it, you're right about Gerrard, he makes too many mistakes and doesn't really offer much any more. Used sparingly I think he can still do a job for us, but I was to see a midfield 3 of Can, Hendo and Allen. There'd be lots of energy there, and I think we'd look a lot more solid

Agreed. Im sure we're all in the one boat that we dont like sayin this..but its time BR uses Gerrard from the bench. Its a sad state of affairs, while brillant & a great servant, that a team of liverpools stature are still forced to start him week in week out. He hasnt the legs anymore..and apart from his goal last week..i struggle to remember any contribution he has made in the league this yr. Thats not the Stevie we want to remember. Use him off the bench in the last 20min to lift the team/crowd..inject a bit of passion/drive..because at the min we are flat. Even when we are chasing a game with 5-10min to go theres no urgency...we look like we dont care! Allen should start in stevies defencive role..which shud free hendo up

Being truely honest, I don't see Rodgers even lasting the season. If we are in the bottom half of the table before Xmas, he will be gone.

Rodgers will be the first manager since Phil Taylor not to win a single trophy within 3 years of being at the club, we're talking over 50 years and at an outlay of over £200 million in 2 1/2 seasons. We really should be performing a lot better.

Just having a look at his transfer record, it is abysmal at best -

Borini, Allen, Assaidi, Sahin, Coutinho, Yesil, Sturridge
Alberto, Aspas, Mignolet, Toure, Ilori, Sakho, Moses, Cissokho
Lambert, Lallana, Can, Markovic, Lovren, Origi, Moreno, Balotelli, Manquillo

So much money wasted on players that we didn't need. Fans were screaming out for a DM and a quality winger, not to mention a replacement for Suarez. He failed on all accounts.

He abandoned the tiki taka [oops] which got him nowhere in the first season, instead adopted a tactic of hoofing it to Sterling and Suarez and trying to win the game in the first 10 mins, now without Suarez he has no idea what to do, so we're back to trying to out pass the opposition to no affect at all. What happened to his 200 page dossier which was going to lead us to glory.

Fact is he is a one dimensional youth coach who is completely out of his depth here and has never won a trophy in his 20 year career. His over inflated ego is getting in the way of his judgement, it's pretty obvious that he's trying to eraze all history of previous managers at the club, judging by the fact that he seems to easily fall out with past managers players before shipping them off. Just look at who's left the club and who signed these players. I find it laughable that Stewart Downing is outplaying our £20 million superstars.

He's screwed the youth squad, he's replaced our homegrown players with so called foreign talent, he's sold off some of our best up and coming talent for peanuts. This season alone he's got rid of Robinson, Kelly, Peterson and Coady; all players that were ready to be pused up to the first team, not to mention Spearing, Shelvey and Wilson, I'm waiting for him to ship Suso and Wisdom off next. So much for his youth policy and giving youngsters a chance, so far only Sterling has been given a proper go and even then, he was being pushed by Kenny before Rodgers was even here.
