    He bombed at Reading and would have a seriously hard job doing anything with some of our players. Then again, he insists on a passing game from the back to the front of the team. Can't see any change as yet..

    No doubt Klippety Klopp will be already tapped up and ready to go at Anfield...

    Madness. I would not be surprised if Jurgen Clip-Klopp is unveiled within the next 48hours or so.

    In fact ignore that as I really know FA.

    Can't help but feel the Rodgers tactics will only work with a very high quality of player. Swansea had good players when he was there. Liverpool have never replaced any of the good players they've sold/let go. Also his rotation ideas aren't good in my mind and would be a disaster if he came to us. Classic case of needing to field a settled team and he doesn't do that. Also not got a great record of bringing in players. In all, no thanks. Just don't think he would fit our club or our current situation.

    it's a mad world when you can give someone a large amount of millions to spend, and then sack them when they haven't been given time to put that side together. Why not sack at the end of a season when and keep your millions for your next manager? Still what do I know, I only put my dosh into the club through the turnstyles

    Fair play but in fairness (annoying cliche, sorry) to Brendan I'm not sure just how much say he really had in Liverpool's transfer dealings. It's often been mentioned that they have some sort of transfer committee which I have often heard Liverpool fans complaining about.

    Not aware of that one mate but thanks for the heads up. I'll take back the transfer policy element. Apologies for my ignorance.

    No need to apologies Quality, I'm no expert on this, just adding what I'v read somewhere. I recently read an article about Jurgen saying he will only join the reds if he has full control of the players he wants during windows.

    Cool. Sounds like people need to take a back seat and leave the player buying to those that know something about it. Whatever we feel about Sir Les, at least he has good experience of the game and what is required of a player.

    Yes, it was on Talksport earlier this week that many of the players were signed without Rodgers agreement, when that happens the manager/coach is in an invidious position as his head is on the block without being responsible for some of the turkeys he's been landed with...

    Just wondering what your thought are on the Ramsey/Ferdinand partnership? From what I can make out, Ramsey and Sir Les work very closely, where as it sounds like it was well out of Rodgers hands at Liverpool.

    After spending 291,000,000 million pounds over a 3 year period, you would want some better results.
    There are more dud buys here than we've ever seen at Loftus Road.

    There's obviously trust there which is essential, the jury's still out on whether Ramsey is good enough at this level...
