If we would of had a few other TCP's then it may of rubbed off on them too and stuck but we didn't hence our return to the garbage pre Suarez quite rapidly
Not that's all it was but it was a major factor that season without doubt in my mind


Exactly, and much better described than I did.

Coconut for you my man.

Way to turn this around and truely judge Rodgers:

1) let Rodgers sign who he wants but warn him to only sign players who will play every game, we have enough squad players, we need quality players now to improve the starting 11

I think Liverpool for far too long haven't appeared to sign players who can automatically improve the starting 11. We should identify weaknesses, sign a better player for that position and fricking play them.

That'll be fun to watch and make the forum a much more pleasant place to visit.


Why you would enjoy having a failed manager who you backed being in charge for another year is for yourself to reflect on.


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.

It'd just be nice to see you explode again. Plus I'm sure you said you'd lose interest if he stayed which means we might not see you again. I'd miss you but not much.

It'll be a quiet exit with nothing to thank him for.


Despite the terrible season we've just had Rodgers got us the closest we've been to winning the title for a couple of decades and also had us playing the best football we've seen for years.


Really? Didn't Rafa get us to second as well? I guess if you in it for the "attractive play" you might think Arsene Wenger has been successful the last 4 years as well.

By that reckoning the poor season we've just had was a fluke then.


You may be right, it could be a blip. We'll find out next season if BR is still there. But I suspect it's not. It could simply be a case of a manager being as good as the quality of the players he has to work with.


You mean the quality players he bought.


Yes. He's been involved in quite a few transfer windows now and has signed quite a few players. I cannot believe that most of these players were forced on him. And if he thinks that he is restricted by the committee or the FSG policy such that he feels it is not possible to compete with the top 4 then he should say so.

Rafa did get us second but in reality we were no where near as close to winning it as we were last season. As for Wenger and Arsenal, success is relative and if Liverpool had done as well as them over the last few years I'd certainly be a lot happier than i am now.
