Brendan Rodgers out

[KeithD]

Get in

Sad isn't it Les, we're both celebrating a draw as a win this weekend?

[Dedworth]

2 points lost - was it a home draw the Mancs were celebrating or did I miss them winning a cup

[les_taxi]

Yes, but any team would celebrate scoring in the last few seconds, and for us Keith, things can only get better

[Dedworth]

There are still 11 names in that envelope letting Rodgers down

[les_taxi]

Aww, you beat me to it! I heard some Liverpool fans talking sense for once, wanting to know how a club that finished second is now in transgression

I will give the stick back gleefully, since I got so much last year.
Rogers has done a Moyes.

He has turned an exciting team into a bunch of no-hopers like United were last season.

Even Stevie Mee wants out as he knows he ain't got it anymore.

Like I said, when they got the shirt-swapping clown - he is not a team player and he looks total crap this season.

Bad, but even Fellaini looks better

[Dedworth]

What happened with wonder kid Raheem yesterday ? Stayed up beyond his bedtime on Friday night or something ?

[les_taxi]

He played Fifa 15 all night and was knackered

Still loving Sothampton. Mugged the scousers for £50 million and 8 points clear of them in the league

[les_taxi]

Got to say, well done Southampton - quality side!

[Dedworth]

Did Brendan ever say whose name was in that envelope the other year, Shelvey, Suarez ?

[KeithD]

WELL DONE MAN CITY

Man U's worst season start for more than 20 years.... Van Gaal continues to break records set by Moyes

[les_taxi]

Rogers will be gone by the end of the season

[KeithD]

Rogers will be gone by the end of the season

He's doing better than Van Gawp .... who is doing worse than Moyes

Rogers out before end of season

Rogers out before end of season

Short memory. Man U didn't get 3 pts from Chelsea either. You're only 2 pts ahead!

I know the refs had instructions at the beginning of the season about penalties, but they have gone to far, in the last couple of weeks ManU, Chelsea, Liverpool, Southampton, and a few others should have had penalties that were 100%, but not given. It has had an effect on a lot of points, and the table would now be different. So at the moment, a number of results are being controlled by the refs, not the footballers.

I will agree on that bit only

Is Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers suffering from delusion?

Brendan Rodgers endured his most difficult week since taking over the Anfield hotseat as Liverpool lost three games in the space of seven days.

Not surprisingly some of his decisions have been called into question.

The Reds boss was asked whether he would change anything if he was given the chance to replay this week again, the answer was an unequivocal ‘no’.

Plenty would argue that there is a slight delusion about how the former Chelsea coach is going about his business at present.

A manager is paid to make big decisions regarding his team and he stands or falls by them and Rodgers is no different from any other.

The Northern Irishman has transformed Liverpool in a short space of time to title challengers and qualification to the Champions League, but he is in danger of undoing his tremendous work with his team’s current situation that doesn’t have many signs of improving – apart from the return of Daniel Sturridge.

Regarding the last week Rodgers was wrong to play a second string team against Real Madrid where his team could have ended up with an embarrassing defeat. But the performance from some of his players in the Spanish capital warranted another chance in the team and Rodgers only kept Emre Can in the team from the fringe players selected against Real Madrid for the Chelsea fixture.

Kolo Toure’s exclusion was the biggest shock after the veteran defender played his best game in a red shirt midweek and he looked like the type of player that Rodgers has been crying out for to martial his shaky defence.

But Rodgers decided to bring back Dejan Lovren who had another woeful game at the back in the defeat to Chelsea.

Even Rodgers substitutions were strange when chasing the game against Chelsea as he withdrew Can and Coutinho who were two of the most creative players in Liverpool’s team, and another creative player Adam Lallana was left on the bench despite Liverpool’s desperation for a goal.

The international break has come at a good time for Rodgers but with his team’s current form his decisions will be scrutinised even more.

Man City, Arsenal, Spurs and ManU also need to lose there managers based on some of the above comments. All those teams are currently underperforming.

ManU are STILL on their worst start to the season in 28 years

I see Moyes now has a decent job. Must be the fact that based on last years ManU form, he's a better manager than Gaal.

[les_taxi]

ManU are STILL on their worst start to the season in 28 years

Bet we finish better than last season - probably above you lot
Liverpools worst start to a European campaign in 50 years

[KeithD]

Johnson dropped by England..... he should be dropped off the Great Orme

[les_taxi]

After all I endured last season this one is more than making up for it. Looking forward to sending Rogers on his way next weekend.

[Dedworth]

I'm watching it at the moment on ITV 1 + 1 and the Cheating Scousers are still in the Champions League

[les_taxi]

Sorry Dedworth for spoiling your fun It took Liverpool 5 years to get back in and 540 mins to get knocked out again

I reckon we will do 'em at weekend and Rogers will be on his way

Then let's hope we hear the demented 'Bring back King Kenny' cheers.

[Dedworth]

Bottler Brendan is contemplating his future now getting a few jars down his neck at the Jolly Giro with Stevie Mee's old man

[Dedworth]

Another one of those great European nights at Anfield - the crowd sounded more Swiss than Norwegian

[London_Manila]

Luis Suarez if ever you wanted proof that one man does make a team

[Dedworth]

I can't see the Reading Reject lasting much longer before the Yanks give him his P45, there's no point in him getting out the 3 envelopes the blarney won't help him anymore

[les_taxi]

He won't last much longer. Liverpool's worst start to a season in 40 years. They are actually worse than we were with Moyes!

It's going to be a top 3 finish for United methinks
