(Sorry Magic ) That these gongs dont upset out title winning form! http://www1.skysports.com/football/...idge-pick-up-premier-league-awards-for-august Liverpool duo Brendan Rodgers and Daniel Sturridge have been named the Premier League manager and player of the month for August. The pair have been rewarded for the Reds' 100 per cent start to the season, when they recorded back-to-back 1-0 victories over Stoke City and Aston Villa respectively. Sturridge netted the winner in both of those games and has since extended his tally to five goals in four matches. An ongoing groin problem prevented the 24-year-old from joining up with England but he is expected to be part of Rodgers' squad for Monday's trip to Swansea. Rodgers has guided his side to the top of the Premier League and former Liverpool boss Gerard Houllier believes the Northern Irishman is the right manager to bring success back to Anfield. "I like his philosophy because it goes well with the Liverpool culture," said Houllier. "I like his passing game and also their results this season. They're top of the league and I hope they can stay there for as long as possible. "I was impressed by their solid resilience and team spirit. When you win 1-0 you can't say the result is easy; you've got to fight and they've showed they're capable of doing that." ----------- Curse of the Manage of the month award!
thoroughly deserved on both counts imo, not superstitious so don't buy the poison challace drivel. Danny had to get it really eh..
I can only see this giving the team a further boost tbh, not so much BR but should have a positive affect on studge, he was pretty much the stand out for me anyway this month. if we get these two awards each month that would mean a very good season so keep em coming please.
Yeah strikers thrive on confidence! Just as all the players do really but hopefully he'll be fit first of all! and then a hat trick would do very nicely indeed
Yeap, another 8 Player and Manager of the Month awards to follow after another 35 1-0 wins, you heard it here first!
well u actually heard it here 1st but I'm glad you agree hehe don't think I could take all those 1-0 wins, I mean I would but then we'd get the..... one nil to the Liverpool tag. lol
It is irrational beliefs no prove.What about the announcement on Friday the 13th?. We're going for a win!.
adds to Rodgers reputation slightly... add another few and he might even attract the likes of mkhitaryan
