Don't give a shat if Rodgers is being hindered by a budget or some weird policy.
Fact- All the teams above us less Manure,chelsea,Man city, n arsenal work with far less resources than us and still dont look anywhere as disastrous as we do
Fact - Good managers can work with limited resources and with a couple of good signings start building a good side - Rafa did it with us, Koeman is doing it with Southampton, Simeone has done wonders with Atletico constantly beating RM. The key is to play to your team's strengths and get the best out of them, not imposing some pseudo-barca style of football and thinking back passes= entertainment.
Fact - Good managers know a winning dynasty(yes dynasty) starts by building from the back, ie Mourinho, benitez, koeman, ancelotti and Simeone. Even if you look at Pep and Fergie, despite having teams scoring plenty of goals they always had top 3 or so defences in their leagues. Same with the invincible Arsenal team with Henry n co.
BR has wasted tons of money, can't coach our freaking defence, signed Lovren for 20m while selling our most consistent defender for the past years or so(Agger)for nothing, has made our defence weaker. He's not getting the best out of the players while adding players that are actually making our defence worse.
I can't see any mitigating factor for not sacking Rodgers. Finishing 2nd last season was a one off that was mainly down to Suarez. If it were a true reflection of his managerial skill he should have been to replicate a certain degree of performance. Ferguson lost Ronaldo and still won the league. Wenger lost Henry and other members of his invincibles but still consistently finished top 3 despite people saying he had lost the plot.
The only question now is how soon do we get rid of him.
