I'm thankful we didn't go for Pardew, Hughes, Allardyce etc. The other part of me just can't get excited about someone who inevitably won trophies in Scotland. Alex Ferguson won trophies in Scotland and didn't do to badly when he came to England 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SheppyFox Posted 26 February 2019 Share Posted 26 February 2019 Had a right laugh reading on Celtic’s forum I sympathise somewhat, but they’re going on like it’s going to make any difference to them. Their football leagues are an absolute joke, they have no competitor, no risk, no point. Year on year getting bullied in Europe, why do they even bother with football up there?

splinterdream Posted 26 February 2019 Share Posted 26 February 2019 I would imagine Rodgers has been assured there's a substantial kitty in the summer, if you're reading this Brendan, go back in for Mahrez, I hear he'd come back to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feck me, these lot are boring. We know how to pass and we have capable ball players. Such a lazy old tired cliche about City the point is that people generally only see us play against the bigger sides where we do usually have to counter attack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Flair Posted 26 February 2019 Share Posted 26 February 2019 We have been linked with him a lot in the last year, couple that with the ITK's saying Rodgers was open to joining come the end of the season and it's clear that this had already been breached before and finally we have seemingly had a plan. All too often we've binned managers and then started the recruitment process, which might be how it works in most businesses but often unwise in team sport. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part of my frustration with Puel is that i knew we could do better and i think BR is just that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will just be PR prep delaying it. However, we are LCFC so until he's seen with our scarf we should be cautious 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manini Posted 26 February 2019 Share Posted 26 February 2019 Can’t wait for the yearly pre-season friendly with Celtic now, dubbed the Brendan Rodgers Derby, where both teams compete to win a pork pie and a 2L bottle of Irn Bru....a la Forest and Derby and their weird little Cloughy cup 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feck me, these lot are boring. We know how to pass and we have capable ball players. Such a lazy old tired cliche about City We can't pass. We're unable to break down teams in the final third. This was a pre-Puel problem that Puel couldn't solve. Games like Palace are a great example of teams letting us have the ball around the 18 yard box knowing the shots we take from there probably won't hurt them. We can pass all we want between the CMs in possession. We can add to our possession and total pass stats that way. But when it comes to scoring goals and creating chances those stats say **** all about the quality of the passes we make. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLittleBigMan Posted 26 February 2019 Share Posted 26 February 2019 I hope we can get some stability now. Would be nice if he can create enough success to see us through to the completion of our training ground/stadium expansion at least. I hope the fans play their part as the success is also dependent on us! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LCFCSOULBOY Posted 26 February 2019 Share Posted 26 February 2019 Hope he won't upset the players else will be gone by Christmas. If they adapt to him could be a good choice. Will have to wait and see. Players seem the love the new manager then become uninspired. So let's see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
