psychonaut Posted 21 August 2019 Share Posted 21 August 2019 There is not ‘a good player waiting to come out’ he’s just not very good. Flatters to deceive. Might be alright on one of these tekkerz youtube channels though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sacreblueits442 Posted 21 August 2019 Share Posted 21 August 2019 .. this seems to be the first manager to effectively set out goals for him.! The fact that he does not make the bench is the key as even when he was not being given playing time the bench provided an illusionary place within the team. He now has someone who will now challenge him mentally in regards to his vision of the game and his subsequent part he feels he can play. I have a feeling this is will be the greatest thing that has happened in his career and we could see a remarkable turn around in his actions and demeanour. Rodgers can not bring him back too soon into the fold as it cuts down on his time of reflection. The Newcastle game is too soon, we need to rebuild his game, this is not in anyway seeking to punish Gray, but an opportunity to reclaim a talent long since unused!!

st albans fox Posted 22 August 2019 Share Posted 22 August 2019 Marc has a habit of crossing at every opportunity......something will stick if you throw enough sh1t at the wall .......... DG is a bit of the opposite in holding the ball for too long and missing the chance of making the incisive pass Pretty sure we will see dimi start at Newcastle and Rodgers will not ignore a good performance if he gets one .......

Gray starting in that game leads to a whole new thread about how serious we'll take the cups this season. Considering Puel's team selections last season, Perez against Newcastle, fielding a weakened side, wanting to go far etc etc I wonder if he will start?

Tbh and I know this won't happen I would suggest that it being this early in the season where players can't complain about fatigue, the fact we are still striving to get the team to click fully, that we have stated that we will be taking the cups more seriously than in previous years and the Newcastle game away from home is a potential banana skin, that we should look to play our strongest line up. As I said of course this won't happen but await the meltdown if we do make lots of changes, lose and find ourselves out of the competition we should have the best chance of winning before summer is out.

But starting and playing well in one game is not going to impress that much. Rodgers sees him train every day and obviously Gray lacks something for Rodgers to not even put him in the squad. Of course he can impress in the cup game, but if he doesn't impress continually in training and further matches, it's back to square one. I'm going to trust Rodgers' view here. I don't think he's rubbish (or other words used on here) but he's certainly not good enough for us to compete in the PL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But considering last seasons showing and being against Premier League opposition away, I think Barnes would be the only one in with a chance of starting. I'd predict regular starting line up options.

That said, the knee-jerk reactions about his so-called lack of intelligence and inflated ego are embarrassing. Maybe Rodgers not even benching him will be the much needed kick in the backside. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan LCFC Posted 22 August 2019 Share Posted 22 August 2019 There were signs quite early doors in my opinion that Rodgers wasn't hugely keen. Didn't start at Watford and then ended up being the player sacrificed when Maguire got sent off at Burnley. Don't think he's a big fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A winger, who stats show creates chances, getting crosses in is described as throwing shit. A winger, who stats show DOESN'T CREATE, not getting crosses in is described as incisive. This makes no sense. Face the cold fact. He's not good enough. He hasn't produced anywhere near an acceptable level. I don't even think he's good enough for a Premier league team.
