I missed the match, but the BBV write-up says we were dominated from start to finish. Just glad we got the damn points.

Our style is high intensity pressing, with consequent possession and overall ball/game domination. We need quality players that are comfortable on the ball, that are then prepared to chase like stink to get it back on the rare occasions when it is lost.
In the last quarter we looked something like. The rest of the time we were as poor as we've been in a while.
We so need a striker. Sterling is OK but DS or someone in the more Suarez style mould would transform our play.

Everyone believe they can be a better manager, i see alot of comments that assure me that alot are clueless. Lucas and Stevie should be dropped for Can and hendo, as much as Lucas isn't the greatest Midfielder he has stabilize our team in the backline and midfield way more than it was before, i remember people on here crying for a Dm and now we play one its a problem. Calling for stevie to be dropped its something we experimented with before and its proven there is no one else to stay calm and pass out the ball.
Playing 2 upfront when our better players are midfielders, todays game we just needed a striker capable of holding up the play, but its something we had to deal with, because of our lack of quality upfront, so take off a player from midfield to put on lambert or balo then you lose in another area which is the high intensity game. At the end of the day we got 3 points. Last season we had several games like these where we stayed deep and let sturridge and suarez work. 2 weeks back we played a good game against united and they edge us out with quality strikers.
While i think Rodgers dropped the ball at times, the man deserves some form of lead way and not as soon as things arent going well turn against him. Most people talking dont have a clue.

Never believed we needed a specialist defensive mid. We need high intensity midfielders and we have that in Can and Henderson. Lucas brings a stability, yes but that stability comes at a price considering his lack of mobility or creativity in the midfield. He slows our play down too much because he's weak technically with the ball at his feet.

And you think you have a clue? The number of times Rodgers has been changing his system only shows that he has no clue, it's one game fine then shyte again. Yesterday's game should have been a convincingly well dominating one, not a single goal against the flow of the game, we had only 3 shots on target and we could have drawn or lost it. If it was a team like Newcastle or Villa, I would understand, not even mentionning City and Chelsea

Players need to play their proper positions. Hendo and Markovic aren't wing backs. What sort of performance do you really expect from them out there? Rodgers is a good manager but needs to get back to playing the systems we brought him in for.

Rodgers is a good manager but needs to get back to playing the systems we brought him in for. So according to you, the definition of a good manager is to play players out of position? In fact, Moreno, the wing back he fought for in the last window is not even playing. I call that a shyte manager.
