So BR is not in control according to you then? So what is his role if he cannot say no to a player he doesn't want, puppet? "Coach"? Amazing how much can be said in one simple five letter word.

Something is very wrong. this for me sums up rodgers in a nutshell. his plan has been a total and utter blackhole clusterfck of a disaster. He now has a B team out there limping through the season (albeit better than plan A), putting out fires and living game to game while his head is in the noose. he hasn't a clue lads. not a clue. Luis Garcia, He drinks sangria He came from Barca, to bring us Joy He's five foot seven, he's football heaven please don't take my Luis away. "...AND 32 MILLION POUNDS WORTH OF GOALKEEPER CAN'T DO A THING ABOUT IT"

If he wasn't too busy loving himself he might be a hell of a manager - we did play some out of this world stuff last season

Just over priced average players have been added to the squad Yes it has. Moreno + Manquillo are both upgrades on our fullbacks from last year. We're only playing Lambert (who is definitely better than Aspas btw) becuause we lost Suarez and Sturridge is injured. Lallana is better than any AM we had last year, with the exception of Coutinho maybe, but he's inconsistent. Our bench is also better than last years was.

Now we have 90 million sitting on our bench and the same people are complaining. Their real value is around 30m. Back to Back World Champions baby!

With the loss of Suarez, I'd strongly disagree that our starting XI has improved. Fair enough, but unless we bought Ronaldo or Messi that would still be the case. Even Sanchez hasn't had the same impact that Suarez had last season in an arguably stronger squad at Arsenal and he was gonna be the best player we could have got. There is no way we could have become stronger after losing Suarez. Buying "3 or 4 world class players" was never gonna happen in 1 window, and it probably never will. Aside from the Suarez thing, our first 11 has improved.

MyKneeGrows Unregistered M	So it's no stronger then, is it? You can't just dismiss 'the suarez thing' If we had a better defence it would have been possible to have a better and more balanced starting XI than last year, even with the loss of Suarez. Yes it was exciting watching us score all those goals last season but they were only necessary due to the amount of goals we conded.
