    it's what chelsea have bred since the money rolled in.

    they(players) know full well they will just get a different manager in to keep the egos (because of the money)happy, never get rid of the player will they <laugh>

    Never happened. It was a fan revolt if anything. As I recall Carragher was interviewed after Roy was sacked and said he thought exactly the same of RH before he came, while he was there and after he left.

    Just saying the logic is players down tools and get bad results. Hodgson had you in relegation form until you got Kenny and magically everyone plays better and you reach 2 finals.

    Sometimes managers are good or bad rather than the players attitudes

    that's a fair enough argument bobby.

    i would be frustrated as **** with hazard though given the obvious talent.

    I don't believe they all did, it was just a extremely wrong fit.

    Fair point except with us and Hodgson the players didn't down tools. This was his first team selection game one: Cavalieri; Kelly, Skrtel, Kyrgiakos, Agger; Aquilani, Lucas, Spearing; Amoo, N’Gog, Jovanović. It had - I don't know what I'm doing - written all over it and things never looked up from day 1. Which of these players btw do you think downed tools?

    It wasn't his fault so much as the owners for appointing him. He'd never managed a 'big' team before and was completely out of his depth. Why that was obvious to everyone except the owners is a mystery.

    Hodgson got the job based on a good run in the Europey with Fulham and getting a Manager of the Year Award. He was appointed by owners who knew nothing about "soccer" and didn't have a clue what they were doing.
    Oh, and the club was in meltdown.
    He's a decent mid-table manager but no more. He took the attitude that mid-table was LFC's place now and that we should be satisfied with that.
    Regardless of the players, the fans will never accept that lack of ambition. We might have been witnessing mediocrity, but we would never be satisfied with it.
    He was a bad fit, that's all.

    Rafa managed to trash Inter and Real. Is he the man for United now?

    Lead by Spearing as Roy was holding him back.
