So who in our history has actually been a better manager for us? 
 

Ranieri over one season? 
 

In my lifetime I can’t think of any others. 
 

Amazes me we’re one game in and people are calling for him to go. Absolutely mental. 

O’ Neill for me definitely.

 

Performed miracles with what he had to work with

Well who else is there that comes close? (Not Pearson before anyone says it for the love of god) 

I get it mate.

 

You’re loyal to Brendan right to the bitter end but can you not seriously differentiate the first 18 months of Rodgers tenure to the latter stages?

 

We’re not the same side, if we’re not allowed to mention Pearson, please don’t mention injuries as how many of these are due to players being picked when in the red zone yet Rodgers wouldn’t pick certain players for whatever reason?

You didn’t answer my question either. 

Fine. I am for real, I generally try to see the positives in managers (defended puel for far longer than I should have in hindsight) but I'm tired of this guy taking £10m a year to just build an excuses wheel behind his desk rather than actually do his job. Nothings ever his fault even when it very clearly is (blaming fatigue and ignoring that he made only 1 sub out of 5). He makes the same mistakes every game and is taking us backwards, all the time throwing players under the bus to avoid admitting he's ever gotten something wrong - the sort of boss that makes you quit your job in any other profession.

I'm not even sure he's much of a good coach anymore. I've never seen someone routinely throw away comfortable positions like he does. He's being outperformed by peers regularly.

 

The sooner he leaves, the sooner we can stop regressing.

Pretty sure those calling for him gone are not just basing it on today.

On a bit of rant hour here, he’s hard to warm too because he very rarely sincerely builds the players up and I don’t think I have ever heard him concede on his own error. 
 

Now, he’s apparently very good with players behind the scenes but I can’t really imagine that.

I honestly don’t know what’s worse, before his interview when I thought he didn’t see our midfield needed fresh legs or after it where he saw what we all did and actively chose to do **** all

Don't forget though lads. Our manager with our best ever squad, top facilities and having spent more than any other manager has achieved more than the likes of Pearson and O'Neill. 

 

So ignore any clear weaknesses that never get addressed because our manager with the best players and facilities and finances has achieved more than people who had much less at their disposal.

We're not one game into his reign of baffling decisions and interview comments. We're a good 18 months into it. Had enough. Anyone expecting things to be any different this season is deluded.

He's probably p***d off he's not been given any money to spend on transfers and isn't doing the extra mile cos he wants to get sacked.

Rumors online that Villa want him after they've sacked Gerrard.

It’s probably a good thing he hasn’t. He’s not going to change, his tactics and stubbornness are predictable. He’s on a downward trajectory. Swap him for Gerrard

I was actually full of praise for his setup. Until their first goal, we completely dominated the game.

 

Then messes around with the system when there was absolutely no need. If it ain't broke, don't fix it!! Just a change in personnel to freshen it up would have worked fine. Daka should have been on for Vardy. And Praet for Tielemans in the middle, who faded as the game went on.

 

Taking the energy of KDH off and unbalancing the team made no sense at all. 5 subs available, we didn't react. Absolutely pathetic.

It really doesn't feel like the season has ended. Just carrying along as we were. Bang average. I think we will be down there after 6 or 7 games because of the hard start. Then it's time to see what mentality we have. Personally think he will be gone by game 10 if they can't wheel and deal and get some fresh ideas and more importantly quality in.

Yeah, exactly. He got it wrong today, but people don’t need to be calling for his head. 

I agree that we have not really had a better manager. We are though entitled to be fed up with the number of times we lose leads. To admit there was fatigue but only use 1 sub and probably the wrong one anyway is bound to cause upset. Frustrated with a big fat F.

It's not about who has done better in the past - because Brendan has done a fantastic job for the club over the years he has been here - but that does not give him a lifetime contract. I want him to leave the club whilst the FA Cup win and 5th place finishes are what we remember him for and before the club continue their decline.

 

He has repeated publicly blamed these players and said some of them had no future at the club and now we expect him to lead the exact same group of players. He blames fatigue, but refuses bring on fresh legs. Clubs have worked out his style and he appears to be unable to adapt. We are still unable to manage a game. 

 

This is not about what he has done for the club, it is about the future of the club.

 

We're not calling for him to go after one game, we are calling for him to go after a poor finish to the 20/21 season, a below average (at best) season in 21/22 - This 1 game just proves he hasn't changed and for many it has brought into question whether he still wants to be at the club - his interviews looks like he is just going through the motions.

 

For the record the Managers in the 90s - Little getting us promoted into the Premier League and O'Neill for bringing us European football for the 1st time in 30 years. With the group of players and resources they had, both did a fantastic job. The resources and players we have now are of a much higher standard.
