Just been quoted on RL that he says he's 200% staying. 

This has brought a smile to my face, I’m glad he didn’t dance around the issue not when everyone is down 

[matty98]

Good to hear his thoughts on what we need to bring in during the transfer window, couldn't agree more.

More attackers and more physicality.

Without doubt a huge bottler.

Such a cheap tabloid term.  
 

But will keep an eye out for him in Vicky Wines (one for the old farts)

Has he just said that?  that’s reassuring.

I’d have preferred 300% or even 400%, but that is reassuring nonetheless

Probably cos he’s spoken to Levy who said he would halve his salary 🤣

Good to hear him say it, and I don't think he will go, but what players and managers say doesn't mean much really though. Does it? Didn't he say he'd stay at Celtic and he left Watford after about 6 months. 

 

I don't think he'll go though. And we'll be better off for it. Two consecutive top 6 finishes and a Cup final victory is an excellent job so far.

Half his salary and he has to take the hit for any empty seats at each game.

 

I don't think Spurs was ever likely right now. I don't know where anyone would leave Leicester for at the moment and Rodgers probably isn't going back to Liverpool. Chelsea most likely of the rich boys? Would Man City want someone bigger post Pep?

I doubt if he can say any more than what he has, to convince everyone he is staying, beyond saying Spurs are total cock sh*t and he wouldn’t touch them with a barge pole

This is well worth a read, fully acknowledges where the development areas are.

 

Love our strategy of investing in younger, talented players and developing them. To help us get over the line, one or two experienced players who've got the winning mentality to help the younger players through would be very welcome:

Rodgers: "We need more goal threat and we need to have more physicality in the team."

 

Yep I'm fed up with seeing us lose the physical battles in the middle of the pitch and getting overun against less gifted opposition in games we're expected to win!

Should I go online, I asked myself. 
 

I was correct. I really shouldn’t have. 
 

The world is full of complete tools at the moment.

did they play the interview with Rodgers saying that? not listened to any of the post match stuff yet

[BoyJones]

Think we are so lucky to have BR as a manager. Just hope it is third time lucky next year re CL, but still rather retain the cup!

 

He gets plenty of things right and when things go wrong he doesn’t usually look for excuses. Obviously, fans will never all agree on his substitutions or timing, but take today, presumably they already had a plan re Fofana carrying that injury and would have practised and decided the options and players available. People are always quick to judge and dish out stick, but don’t know what planning etc has gone on behind the scenes. 

 

BR is a very dignified manager, he is a winner and a massive credit to Leicester City. I am proud he is our manager.

This 100%, he is a trophy winning manager and every season we have moved forward with his management

In the live interview he didn't use the same exact words but he reiterated his commitment to the club, or words to that effect.

sounds positive. will listen to them post match stuff later over a few beers

 

[Guest Col city fan]

I wonder if today will make him think about leaving.

‘We’ve all said it, they brought Bale and Moura off the bench.

‘We had Mendy and Amartey

 

It’ll be interesting

He's on the record post-match saying quite the opposite.

[Unabomber]

Spurs can’t afford him anyway so it’s a non starter

That also proves that, if he does go, any manager coming in will have one hell of a task to improve on what he's doing.

 

For all the disappointment again, Rodgers has improved standards. The next man has a huge job to maintain and improve them.

Some quotes to that effect in news feeds too - repeating how happy he is at the Club . ( they tend not to fabricate real quotes preferring the likes of “sources close to the club” if it’s made up BS)

Absolutely.. and we all know that football managers always say exactly what’s on their minds at all times...

 

I just wonder... I hope not of course

[Tielemans63]

We've improved each year he's been here. I'm really excited by the thought of what the team might achieve next season. I'm hoping his willingness to stay is down to the fact that he knows he'll be backed this summer. I really hope Top gives him the resources to add the qualities he rightly says we're short of.

[Muzzy_Larsson]

I'm not saying he's flawless, he makes mistakes and the wrong calls from time to time, what manager doesn't, but to deliver what he has over the last two seasons on a net spend of £9m is absolutely terrific.

 

There's no other manager that would have come two and a bit years ago that would have come close to delivering what he has with those sort of resources.
