No he's just completely out of his depth. Today he's been linked with West Ham; a lot of their supporters don't want him and think they can do better, meanwhile a few media personnel think Rodgers would be best to take a year out as they don't think he will be able to hack the pressure next season.

I believe that Rodgers makes strategic decisions on playing players out of position. Yesterday we didn't play a striker. You could argue that he's clearly making a point that its an area we need a lot of investment in. HE looks a fool for doing it, but it has proven the point for sure. If that's what he's up to then the sooner we get rid the better. The main area we need investment is on the managerial side.

I don't buy that whole 'making a point/sending a message' thing. If that's true then he and he alone cost us a CL place, not his(or the committee's) bad signings, and for that he should be fired.

I do Stanley. But the more I consider Klopp, the more I think he's better suited to doing it. I would say stand by Rodgers if he wasn't out of contract and actually wants to manage in the PL. I think Frank De Boer would do a better job within the parameters and there could be others.

I would be ecstatic if we got Klopp, would love to have Rafa back, de boer could do a good job for us, ancelotti perhaps. There's options out there, I would even be tempted to try pako.

I dunno where to start. Not a shred of evidence the committee is anything different to the group of people every single PL club has in transfer acquisitions. A mountain of evidence including his own testimony that says Rodgers made those terrible signings. Can is the only one who can be considered any kind of a success and even he has been terrible in the run in, maybe because of BR's tactical decision to play him at right back. Anyone who says Moreno has been a success has absolutely lost it and hasn't looked at him since his wonder goal at the beginning of the season.
Rodgers has showed poor tactical nouse, but good coaching of young players. So that's a youth manager. Great. Quite possibly the single worst managerial transfer record since the PL's inception in terms of value for money and has left us with a first 11 devoid of top 4 quality. He most certainly doesn't deserve to stay based on his transfer record alone, but when FSG are only going to appoint Gary Monk what's the point. Rodgers will probably do a little bit better next year, just please don't let him be involved in any transfers.

Don't know why De Boer's name keeps getting mentioned, Ajax finished 17 points behind PSV in a poor Dutch league!

You have a go at who we've bought yet a lot of them could still end being very good players in the future.
Moreno - made a lot of mistakes but got a lot of potential
Can - inconsistent, got potential
Markovic - needs time to adapt, got potential
Manquillo - probably not good enough, but only a loan deal
Lovren - disappointing, give him one more season
Lallana - played well when not injured
Balotelli - hasn't fit in at Liverpool, but got obvious talents
Surely you don't expect young players who have never played in England before to be revelations straight away?

Nothing to do with football. Fans are impatient and want to see new face every year at the cost of the club every time. If we just stick with what we've got making odd tweaks where needed we wouldn't be in the position of being in transition finishing 6th every season.
