Rodgers seems to be giving out instructions and trying to improve what's going on. Villas-Boas? Not so much. This might be it for him, I'm afraid.
I commend Arry for 2009-10. But it appears he could not handle the pressure of then being EXPECTED to get subsequent CL slots. And even in 2012, I (and no doubt ENIC too) could not tolerate all the gobbiness that went with Feb to May.
It could happen easily now. When it happened against City we were all disgusted but at the same time, City have been doing that to every team this season at home. This? We just never turned up today - the only player who put in any sort of effort was Lennon and even he was poor.
This - we have to have a manager who can handle expectation. With the squad we have, there is expectation now. AVB doesn't seem to know what to do.
"'ll say it again. It would have been a travesty if we didn't get the 3 points." I would also say it again. But : 1. you appear to be too stupid to understand 2. it didn't come to that
That isn't a fair view as the situation created by the court case, the England job and then injuries and loss of form was a unique situation, and you can't really say much about Redknapp not handling pressure as he has proved he can handle the pressure of making sure we finish top four and getting into the champions league.
