Rodgers first couple of seasons were, on the face of it, successful and he was definitely a shot in the arm for us after Puel, Shakey and Ranieri - but you just look at it and you can see in reality he should have done better and the signs that the mentality was crumbling were all there. We were lucky to win that FA cup in his second season, and we bottled top 4 (which would have massively increased our revenue) by losing three of the last four and missing out by a point. That was when the alarm bells should have started ringing. The start of the season after that was when we went into free fall. I remember watching us play West Ham in the second game of the season and we couldn't lay a glove on them, it was absolutely pathetic stuff - displays we've seen all too often since. That was the tipping point for me, but you could see it was coming. I don't think the mentality has ever recovered.

I'd say the warning signs and the beginning of the decline started before we won the FA Cup to be honest

There's probably been worse players, but I just hate this fuzzy haired freak with his face like a smacked arse.

His face just winds me up tbf

Honestly can't wait for us to get shot of this loser, he's one of the shittest signings we've made in living memory.

It was literally just asking a question about his tribunal, so not particularly needy at all? If it's so inconsequential, then surely you needn't reply?

The whole game is screwed - the best you can hope for now is to be the Leicester of 3-4 seasons ago, or a Villa, or a Forest this season. Maybe a jaunt in Europe and a couple of good seasons before you run out of steam, or the big boys pick you clean, or the powers that be decide you've stretched yourself too far. Ironically the Premier League is what everyone aims for, but most teams have a miserable time of it in this league. Imagine being an Everton fan, watching your team circle the drain every season, never achieving anything. Or even the likes of Spurs, kind of thereabouts every now and then, and no silverware to show for it. Both of those two would class their recent seasons as more successful than ours, but we've got an FA Cup to show for it at all at least.

What a waste of a signing he's been - 22 and it's clear he'll never play league footballl

Tbf, if you walk out of your only two jobs as a manager after falling out with the board twice, you can pretty much guarantee you're not getting a job anywhere else, so I wouldn't be surprised if he stays

Get rid of both

Wouldn't get excited lads, this is never happening.

Ferguson is 20 years old 😂 his career is in no way comparable to the washed up fraud Edouard.

Close the Twitter Transfer Rumours thread? Feels a bit extreme

Hasn't he just joined Monaco?

I think you're worrying about nothing tbh. They're not shouting complex instructions to eachother, all they basically need to be able to say is the other player's name and a probably a couple of very simple instructions, that's it. They should know their roles before they step on the pitch.

All gone very quiet hasn't it? What an absolute shambles this club is.

I generally think the performances are good, and it's just the overall lack of quality - particularly defensively - that's letting us down. The players aren't good enough, or they're on the injury table. What can the manager realistically do?

Things need to change, root and stem, at this club. Rotten to the absolute core.

No point sacking the manager, the players are shit, the owners are shit, the board are shit, there's not one single good thing going for this football club at the minute. The good times are getting smaller and smaller in the rear view mirror, and there's nothing but shit on the horizon I'm afraid. Get ready for a lean few years lads.

Looking forward to moving back in the next few months after about 14 years away. A combo of family circumstances and being able to WFH a lot of the time. I'll never get the people who bash the city, it's got negatives, but it's got a hell of a lot of positives too - like any city. Hopefully in a few months I'll be living in Glen Parva and thinking about trying to wangle a season ticket for City 😂

With Monga, I'm sure I read that he only trains like 1-2 days a week? No way he's ready to go into the first team. He's got to go to school ffs!

Have you heard of fog
