    Think you'll find half that team wasn't rodgers - Guzman, Michu, Davies, Chico, Hernandez, Ki and arguably Routledge who Rodgers didnt play.

    Now Rafa's 2005 win, that was Houlliers team....

    Where are you getting Rodgers is a hit from? The only points being made about him are facts to counter to the rubbish some posters [including you <whistle>] are writing. It's the rivals posting from emotion here - hate.

    Winning the Mickey Mouse is possible for the lesser sides like Swansea, Boro, Brum, and Liverpool, as the big clubs tend to play their stiffs.

    It's a short format and with a bit of luck in the draw you're in the latter stages before you know it.

    The true test of where a side is at is their league position, where resource to league placing tells over a 38 game, 10 month season. Those with the most resources sit at the top and those with the least at the bottom, very few consistently out perform their resource level in the PL.

    lol, the only hate being shown and bollocks being spouted is from you lot, ignoring plain logic as it doesn't suit your prescribed opinion of an individual or club's performance.

    Davies was an academy player and Flores didn't play so 7 out of 11 were Rodgers team.

    Does that make sterling rafas player then? If we are going to play that game rodgers success was down to kennys team. Now that rodgers has his 120m worth of buys you are seeing how decent he is

    Moyes in his first season in the CL made it to the knockout phase and was eliminated by an excellent Munich side.......

    Rodgers......

    I would argue Moyes group is even harder than Liverpools. Sociedad, Donetsk and Leverkusen is a much more solid group then the cannon fodder Liverpool got (minus Real).

    Moyes also made round of 16.

    have we failed to qualify or something then?

    still with someone elses squad (again title wining one!) and was seeded better, so almost guaranteed easier ties.
