Also a difference between intelligent comments and spiteful moronic shite.

Of course there is, I don’t think I was being spiteful at all though. I’ve stuck up for Rodgers plenty on here also.

Bottom of the form table 2 points out of a possible 15.

[Trelleh]

He’s got no reputation or legacy left to tarnish so do it Top, pull the trigger.

This year. 

 

Rodgers won't be our manager next season IMO.

I am, partly because I think we'll get enough points til the end of the season. And there are worse teams than us. Which isn't a great beacon of hope but it still remains the fact.

Lose to Burnley and it’s looking very bleak.

You wanted to take 1 of the wide men off Lookman or Albrighton to put Nacho in a 2 against a team that uses the wings to attack??

This reasoning is why we are where we are. Its always thinking about what the opposition is going to do rather than imposing yourself on them and giving them something to think about.

 

Rodgers biggest weakness is the places too much effort and thought into stopping the opposition.

I liked your post but unliked it after thinking about it.

 

Trying to look at it objectively rather than my usual criticism of him, he could’ve done 3 things today 

 

1. Start Ian

2. Put him up front with Daka

3. Put him on whilst we were dominating at 1-1

Fair point and thanks for your honesty!! 

 

I just feel there's not much more I would have seen different. I did think that KDH tired out and maybe someone like Perez had an opportunity but again it's just guess work. Truthfully Ian had 1 thing to do in the 20 mins he played and he landed flat on his arse. It's not an exact science. 

 

We're all generals after the war!!

No legacy? 

 

He'll always have something because of the FA Cup win. 

 

I think he'll be sacked but harsh to say he has nothing of that left.

We wont get relegated but I can only see us around 9 points from safety by the end. Cant even see where the next win comes from really.

Lose to Burnley and he’s 100% gone. There is absolutely no way he would survive that.

Yes your right, it’s not like we don’t have the worst defence in the league and haven’t won a game in the league for weeks. 😂

Put your money where your mouth is then

Performance today was very good. Just came up against a settled and ruthless side, who rode their luck.

 

If performances stay like this, then I might start believing in Brendan again. But its the constant flow of injury woes, that has us in this situation and he is responsible for that.

I’m not sure it’s a fact, we are in the worst form and those behind us are picking up points at an alarming rate. Stop the rot.

How many games have any number of fans thought ah we were just unlucky today, nah, we've been rubbish and everybody knows it, but that wasn't the case today, think we did most everything right to get a result at a team away from home who are currently better than us. Kasper should have done better for the first goal and our finishing should have been better. It wasn't all on brendan today at all. 

This 100%, there have been so many games this season where you could argue rodgers was a major factor behind us dropping points, today was not one of them and shouldnt change anything in terms of whether he is sacked or not

Only Newcastle at an alarming rate. 

 

Everton, Leeds, Brentford, Palace aren't...

If that gap gets to 6 pts then our weak minded team will crumble, I wouldn’t fancy us in a scrap and we’re going up against teams fighting for their lives.

Not being able to keep a clean sheet causes huge problems and teams are talking advantage of our soft underbelly.

defending well is part of a good performance and we are horrific at it

they are all within 5 points of us, so it doesn’t take much of an upturn for them to get past us.

And you still have the bottom 3 even if they do. 

 

Watford are 9pts behind. Burnley are 10 pts. 

 

I'm not saying we're anything special right now, but we'll do enough (in my humble opinion) to not get sucked into it.

“We won’t get relegated” isn’t a good enough excuse for him staying by the way. 

[Oxfordfox83]

We were much better today. A rub of the green, or Vardy away from a decent result. We set up as well as we could in the circumstances.

 

Even Tielemans showed up today.

 

Not changing my mind until we see out a win and he doesn’t try to sabotage it, but there wasn’t a lot to criticise today.

Not saying it is by the way.

I admire the blue tinted view but the performance was not very good.

 

Its an improvement on recent ones but the same issues remain. Its something to build on.

Dominated the game - hard to blame Brendan today, Lady Luck was not smiling on us.

 

Over the par two weeks we’ve deserved much more than we’ve got against two sides who are getting a lot of plaudits this season. Very frustrating, but I think our luck will change.
