I liked the guy and hope he does well.
No point debating it anymore. He gave us a nearly the greatest season many of us have ever witnessed. Was that down to the manager or was it right place & time having Luis and the his gang firing?
We'll never know but he had no answers after he left. All we can do is see how he does over the next few years and we'll probably have a good idea. Exactly , however I'm sure that if Klopp left tomorrow he would end up at a massive club, Rodgers went to Scotland where last year a man named Ronny Delilah won the league in March ....tells me everything, just glad FSG got Klopp for us and what Rodgers does from here on in is of no concern to me.

[quote=RedsforChampions KD went to 2 finals winning one while Brendan only got to semi finals. Klopp in his part season went to a final, so already better than Brendan.[/quote]
Tacticians get you to semi finals at best.
Motivators get to final and possibly win.
Just saying

Sorry but I can't get excited about a fluke season when Suarez carried the team and we finished second in the EPL i.e. didn't win it, and we didn't win anything else. Thread over please.
It was more than Suarez thread on Probably. Ranieri won the EPL last year with Leicester, this was a miracle, especially as it was the first trophy Ranieri ever won and I think he has been managing for 20 years. One player was sold and he invested more than what he sold for, it doesn't look like they will win it or even close this year. Does that make him a great manager, not for me, a good manager can be great one season, while a great manager is great consistently. Same goes with Rodgers, however, he is still young and can become great.

People aren't judging him on what he brought to us. Regardless of the players at his disposal, he very nearly won us our first ever EPL title - THAT season was our best in a generation for so many reasons. But bizarrely, some were happier during Kenny's second reign despite it being an absolute shambles both on and off the pitch. That said, Rodgers failed to recruit wisely enough to replace the likes of Suarez and made an absolute fool of himself whenever a mic was shoved under his nose. No one in their right mind can complain that he was sacked to soon, or unjustly.
In summary: 25% superb, 75% utter garbage.

Never said Rodgers was a great manager just that for a spell at Liverpool he achieved a lot nearly won us the title sorry what did he achieve he had a team that scored 100 goals in the bpl, and got bounced out of the champions league the following season- although it was a guest showcase appearance. never took us to a final which both his predecessor and current manager already have 2 to their name, which you have to be in to win.

The problem with being a manager is it’s like trying to build an aircraft while it is flying.
That job interview was going so well until I realized I was fukked up on acid in the middle of a cornfield naked and talking to a scarecrow.
