Apologies if I’ve remembered that wrongly. Rodgers was trying to get money from his board for transfers ...... Strange to see so many managers today asked about links to the job and none of them said they weren’t interested .... I guess doing that would potentially stop their currently owners wheeling out an improved contract for them ..... the days of saying ‘not for me’ are long gone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Corky Posted 25 February 2019 Popular Post Share Posted 25 February 2019 I can see we're in for a difficult Rogers/ Rodgers situation. After the recent McGuire and N'didi issues it's important we get this one right. Especially on banners from old ladies calling for his head in 12 months that will be removed by stewards. 10 1 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might just surprise you. He might, and hopefully he does (and sorts himself out - really don't take to arrogant bellends) but let's be honest - he'll fail, like Puel did, like Shakespeare did, like Ranieri did second season: the problems run deeper than the manager. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where did they drag out David Seaman from? They must have a list of the worlds biggest dunces or something? Why do the likes of the BBC and Sky continue to employ the biggest bunch of thick brain dead cretins the world has ever seen. David Seaman can hardly string a sentence together. He can piss off.

Golden Fox Posted 25 February 2019 Share Posted 25 February 2019 Let's be honest - what can you prove as a manager at Celtic??? Win the league? - check Win the Cup? - check Win the League Cup? - check Set some record for games unbeaten/won or whatever? - check Have a season to remember in Europe? - this is the big one... fail (MON got to the UEFA Cup final & has set the recent historical standard, but its not going to happen this year & it starts to become pretty silly to have to keep waiting for that 1 competition to come round again.) So why not ask the question - now or never? They are out of Europe: winning the league or cup again isn't really going to prove anything more - so if they do want him, quite clever to just go for it. (This is in no way intended to be an endorsement or otherwise of Rogers - the guy gives me the creeps - just an observation about the viewpoints of the 2 sides) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May as well just fold now then ey. I dont necessarily disagree with what you’ve said there to be honest, but those problems will have to be sorted out by somebody, and in my opinion, that means a big old clear out of personel.

It does need a big clear out, which is what Puel was undertaking and why I backed him til the end, but I think it's a bigger fight and one no manager we could possibly attract will win - because they've got to bomb out Vardy and Schmeichel as well (they hold too much power at the club). It'll become manager vs players and fans again before the problem is fixed, and I think the only manager that could survive something like that is a legendary name like Guardiola or Ancelotti, who wouldn't come here.

I know I’m talking in hypotheticals here but why don’t you see anybody being able to come in and get on the players side? Why are Vardy and Kasper now destined to always be against the manager? Let’s be honest right, Claudio was a bit of a senile old man (no disrespect intended I love the bloke but he really did remind me of my Italian grandad it was uncanny) really, Shakespeare, no matter how much he got on with the players, didn’t know how to set up a top flight premier league team on his own and Puel couldn’t speak English to a very good level, thus not being able to engage with his players.....all reasons why players COULD lose respect and or interest in the person they’re taking orders from - yes I know they’re paid x ammount of money so they should do this and that but they’re human beings at the end of the day, and human beings have to be stimulated to some sort of degree in order to perform, regardless of cash the cash means nothing to them they’re all mega rich anyway. There’s nothing to suggest that a manager can’t come in and get these players bought in to what he’s trying to do. Fair enough if in your opinion you don’t think Rodgers is that bloke but I’m certain that somebody will be able to get this team playing, regardless of player power and what not. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think both Vards and Kasp have been absolute legends for the team and their legacy will live on but if they truly are the problem in us progressing then I have no problem with them going. Vardy is 32 now so it will be happening sometime in the not so distant future and I can’t imagine we bought the most expensive reserve keeper to keep him reserve for ever. I think at the end of the season things will look so different with Fuchs, Simmo, Wes, Oka and possibly Kasp going. No disrespect to any of them, I love Fuchs to bits but times they are a changing.

I think they'd be against any manager that tried to progress us, because progressing means moving away from the set up that they were integral to, and ultimately away from them, neither are spring chickens. It's self preservation and I think something most of us will have been guilty of ourselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crispin LA Posted 25 February 2019 Share Posted 25 February 2019 Looks like our board is just going with the flow and gushing all over Brendon. The board doesn't have much footballing knowledge to pick a young up coming manager from the Continental leagues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
