Maybe not, but they could make us hard to beat and not so easy to play against.

it would be nice to hear his name being chanted at the next home game, got to admit. Fans don't know sh1t.....look what happened when they chanted for Dalglish whilst Hodgson was in charge? It's all well and good wanting a new manager, but what is the point if there is no money to spend and he has to work with the poor quality squad we have at the moment? I don't think that anyone could make a top team out of allen, markovic, lambert, borini, lallana, balotelli, skrtle, johnson, coutinho, mignolet and & an over-the-hill gerrard etc. That is the idea ! There is always and underlying problem when a manager is sacked. Raffa, Houllier, Maureen, Moyes etc etc etc. Whether or not it is directly the managers fault for poor performances is irrelevant as someone has to take the blame. Someone needs to be accountable for the shyte we are seeing game after game. We, the fans, can make excuses on a game by game basis on blaming player performances and such but when the team performances become consistent, then someone has to take the blame? Rodgers is the most un-achieving manager we have ever had, sowhy the blind faith? Considering his CV, it would take a lot more than shiny new teeth to convince me that Rodgers is capable of digging us out of the sh1t we are in. (Remember Reading?)

Rafa might make us better in Europe but we need to qualify again first for that to be even worth considering. And Napoli aren't exactly a tight defensive unit in Serie A at the moment - they leak goals almost as badly as us.

I don't like it, and I don't see how it will motivate the manager or the players. Don't get me wrong, there is no 'blind faith' for him - he is totally deserving of all criticism that has come his way. And there must be a question mark over his manager of the year award considering he sold the person that won it for him. But......i just think it's too early to start wanting him out. How well would chelsea, city or anyone else do if they were without their top 2 strikers from last season? It's only november, and chelsea aside, we're the only club still in all competitions. Plus we could be in the top 4 after our next 2 league games thanks to ALL rival clubs doing badly in the league (except chelsea). No one is happy about our current form but i don't think that a sacking is appropriate yet.

Plus they have spent nowhere near what we have and sit third in their league.

... so when would you pull the trigger? How low would we have to go before you would think enough is enough?

Nostalgic short-sightedness and short memories. What makes you think Rafa would turn this team around - what makes you think he would drop Gerrard? Rafa was awful for persisting with his favourites - he'd probably resign Kuyt! Rafa who nearly sold Gerrard twice, stood up to his dressing room bullying and dropped him towards the end of his reign here. If Rafa came back, Gerrard would be kissing Mourinho's ass faster than Balotelli changes hair colour. Nothing wrong with Kuyt, at least he still has legs to play with, it was criminal that Rodgers sold him in the first place and I'm pretty sure not so long ago Van Gaal was hinting at signing him.

it would be nice to hear his name being chanted at the next home game, got to admit. I think it would be very disrespectful to Rodgers if the fans chanted "Benitez" at any game. Fans don't know sh1t.....look what happened when they chanted for Dalglish whilst Hodgson was in charge? It's all well and good wanting a new manager, but what is the point if there is no money to spend and he has to work with the poor quality squad we have at the moment? I don't think that anyone could make a top team out of allen, markovic, lambert, borini, lallana, balotelli, skrtle, johnson, coutinho, mignolet and & an over-the-hill gerrard etc. It comes from the God idea, some people think that all you have to do is sack the manager and the next appointee is going to be a Godlike messiah, working wondrous miracles, calling down mana from heaven and leading us gloriously into the promised land! Some fans are funny creatures with that enviable gift for living in a perpetual dreamworld.
