Why should someone who hasn't won anything yet be called a genius is baffling indeed. On the other hand, nothing he's done so far merits calling him a fruad. As long as he's our manager, we as fans should wish him well no matter what we think of him.

"I think we were outstanding on Saturday.
I think we were outstanding last month.
I think we have been outstanding this season.
I can mindlessly repeat these sentiments to the media until the end of time and maybe even believe them... so please, could you give me a job as LFC manager? Thanks."
No on second thoughts I will not send this draft application to Mr Henry! As I happen to live in the real world Suarez rates him very highly as a manager, and Gerrard says Rodgers would have won the league many times over if he'd joined us earlier. These people work with him on a day to day basis. Thats good enough for me.

I don't think we should sack him. I think we need to support him and try to make his tenure a success. all debates on here are pointless. Nothing really matters in the grand scheme of things. It's an interesting pastime but whatever we say on here isn't going to affect anything.  I don't know the exact data, but we've lost only once (maybe twice?) in our last 20 games and that is without our main striker. BR has also changed tactics and personnel to fix our leaky defence and done 'something' to make Mignolet look like a good keeper again. And we're slowly but surely rising up the table and are very close to challenging for the top 4 in a year where the league has been more competitive than ever. BR's reward? people want him sacked?!?!?!?!?!!? Lunacy.

BR's reward? people want him sacked?!?!?!?!?!!? Lunacy. It took him too long. our season from a league perspective was almost finished before Christmas. As things stand our chances of a top 4 finish are slim, let alone our chances of competing for a higher spot. but if people feel this is where we expect to be then yes... in that case he is doing a fantastic job.

He has improved results from the start but i think the owners want or need champions league next season.
Therefore he fails to meet that then P45 for BR

We're 1 win away from 3rd place and people want the manager sacked!? If we were regular PL champions then there might be some support for this lunacy, but we are a club that has only managed to qualify for the CL once in the last 5 years! Some people have wildly unrealistic expectations, and delusions of grandeur.

Some people have wildly unrealistic expectations, and delusions of grandeur. Agree totally. Some people seem to think we have a divine right to be top of the table and if we're not then someone is obviously not doing their job right. They seem to forget that we are competing with another half a dozen teams or more with good managers in charge and plenty of money to spend on new players (and often a lot more money than we have at our disposal).

Agree also. People seem to forget that its only thanks to BR that we can realistically dream of CL football again and get disappointed if we didn't get it. Remember the FOUR LONG YEARS before last?

I think very few want him sacked, but the thread isn't about that - it's asking about how good or bad we thing he is.
Those who believe he's below par for LFC aren't saying so because he's failed to deliver the title or a title challenge this season. It' because we're only just about competing for 4th place. For many reasons, after 3 full seasons in charge and so many transfers that's just not what we expect. Our defence continues to be a shambles as we saw last night.
That doesn't mean he should be sacked... it depends what the alternatives are. I feel that he should be given another season purely to keep the club stable. However, he needs to sort something out defensively else we'll never win anything - it cost us the title last season.

We keep four consecutive clean sheets and when we concede two goals -one of them from an offside position-, our defense suddenly becomes shambles!!
