#rodgersforlife

 

hahaha, bookmarked.

 

Just noticed your signature image

 

Shame to drop points... but still only 8pts off the top.

Do the double over Chelsea (easy right since Chelsea are the dark horse... ) and it's two points.

Leaders dropped points against Manchester's second team yesterday.

As crap as we are... title could be ours if we pick up when Studge ,the saviour , returns.


Amen.

 

When Rodgers came to us he only had 4 years managerial experience, so he himself is a work in progress. How anyone can call him a fraud with that very small CV beggars belief, he's just too inexperienced to warrant that label, which is why I said have another look if he's gifted 11 years with us - or even when he's had 11 years experience ... anywhere!


I've said a few times I'm still undecided on him, I really don't know if he's a good fit for LFC but 'fraud' is laughable. He took us from 7th in his first season to 2nd - was that good luck or good management? I don't know. But .... if it was all down to Suarez then Rodgers deserves some credit for that anyway because his stubbornness was what kept Suarez from leaving and playing the 2013/14 season at the Emirates!

As we were comparing Moyes - a far more realistic choice for fraud - not quite mirroring Rodgers but with the same starting point of 7th place finish after his first season, his second season took Everton to 17th achieving the clubs lowest points for a season and with a team which still included Rooney.

Cue lack of money ...blah blah, blah ..... net spend blah, blah, blah .....

 

Trying to compare Moyes tenure at Everton to Rodgers, and then seemingly wishing to ignore the colossal difference in resource is beyond ridiculous.

As is trying to make out that Moyes somehow took us backwards by only mentioning his worst finish in 11 years, and ignoring the simple fact that he took us from relegation fodder to top 6 regulars.

Rodgers has bigged up his 'philosophy' since the day he arrived at Anfield, he's consistently tried to make himself sound clever and some sort of cutting edge football guru. When he was piping up with cringeworthy nonsense at the start of his reign it was laughable, last season no-one really focussed on it, as you were winning. Now the prime reason for that success has left and he's failed to replace him with anything like a 30+ per season striker, he's back under pressure and the detail of his tripe is being picked over in more detail.

I call him a fraud as that's my opinion, he's full of blarney and is now being found out.

 

nice spin, but the reality is you were 5th-6th place regulars i.e. the most useless positions for an ambitious club to be in

 

by challenging for the title with a squad not even expected to be top 4, then losing the best 2 players in the league and still being above Man Utd, Everton, Tottenham and behind Arsenal on goal difference?

#getfoundoutforever

 

You keep pointing out that Moyes had a net spend of what, £11m during his eleven years...? Yet we also keep hearing how Rodgers as spent (that would be gross) over £200m too. Now, obviously Rodgers will have spent more in the same time periods, it may even be more than Moyes' entire eleven years at Everton, but it IS ridiculous to use net for one argument and gross for another!

Other than that, I don't really care about comparisons. Moyes means nothing to Liverpool, never as and never will. I'm only interested in Liverpool and our own manager.

 

Having played tougher fixtures than one or two of them too

 

He was the most successful manager pound for pound - fact.

Who were we realistically supposed to finish ahead of, out of those ahead of us??? With a NET SPEND OF £11M IN 11 ****ING YEARS

 

He's spent £100m net.

 

Pretty sure that depends on your definition of success

 

Moyes over 11yrs or Brod in 2yrs...?

 

See what you think about

#rodgers for life

Come May son.

 

Zero success is zero no matter what net spend you divide it by

 

The latter.

Gross Moyes spend barely half of what Rodgers has already ffs.
