Exactly same here. It was a bizarre comment and shows hes more about his philosophy of keeping ball at all costs and not actually about the most important thing.. winning 

Nailed it. His obsession with having control of the ball has completely nullified us over time. I think it was successful in the beginning, because the players bought into it and it blended well with our more direct players. However, over time this has eaten away at any real attacking threat and has made the players go into panic mode when not having that control, hence how weak and disorganised we are without the ball. 

I have said this from very early on, Rodgers wants to play like Man City/Barcelona etc, but will never have the players for that, and so will likely always be found wanting after 1-2 seasons in charge of any club at a decent level. He is too stubborn to change too.

He has to be one of the three accounts left praising him

Is Ricardo on his knees or photoshopped in? I know he's not the tallest but surely he's not THAT small.

Ricardo isn’t but the club is, on its knees.

probably time for an update, because hoo boy it's got worse:

 

 

goals: Madders and Tielemans having a bangers only contest pre world cup has disguised just how bad chance creation is nowadays, the recent output has basically been matching our underlying stats of around 1gpg (so is it any wonder why Vardy looks finished and Daka doesn't look like his heir when they're being given nothing to work with)

 

 

Defence: Wout has helped a fair bit, although him coming back from the world cup not himself has started what might be a trend back to bad performance starting at the end there, and also while Schmeichel was slightly underperforming last season, Danny Ward might as well not even be playing

 

 

points: glass half full, the trend seems to have flattened out at just over a point a game which would generally be enough for lower midtable 

These are the real illustrations of how bad we actually are and tallies up pretty much exactly with the same sort of thing I use.

 

Would be intrigued to see the equivalent from Puel's era. I think we were poor for chance creation then but could at least we weren't giving much up defensively. We have been straight up poorer than Puel's Leicester for I think a good 18 months now and that is shocking, because that era was in no way fun.

Brendan is “determined” to see out his contract at Leicester with “six full seasons”

Only 100 pages to go to the 2k moment & this is my contribution. 

 

Keep her lit Brendan as they say in county Antrim.

I just can't deal with the whole Brendan thing any more. He will milk Leicester to the last drop !!

Am I blind, but no Maddison or Tielemans in the photo, probably up at the Toon getting their medicals?

Tbf, Mendy is so small he probably is there, just can’t see him. Bless him. 

[DezFox]

Just shows what a joke of a club we are now. Even the manager who doesn’t want to be there and should have been sacked 18 months ago is determined to see out contract and leave on a free. 😂

[Stuntman_Mike]

1900 pages of wanting your manager gone, you'll never sing that

It's the bulls**t that Rudkin talks.

Where are Maddison and Tielemans?
 

Off having medicals at Newcastle?

well let's have a look. puels full 56 league games in charge Vs Rodgers last 56:

 

 

xG mostly broadly comparable, slightly better under puel for the most part but I don't think it's significant

 

xGA better under puel

 

xPts better under puel.

 

our underlying stats are worse under Rodgers than anything puel was putting out
