If we get spanked because the players don’t step up will it be his fault or the players.

I don’t think you can separate it tbh. Danny Murphy made a good point on the TalkSport (sorry) video I saw. Right at the end he said, “As a pro, when you are in a cup against a lower league aide, you know and someone has to step up and rally the team. I didn’t see the balls/bollocks/minerals from the Leicester players on Sunday”

However, I also never felt convinced that Brendan understood the magnitude of the game, and I get it’s not the old firm derby, or the scouse derby, but it’s important to the fans, and I did not fell that from his comments.

I’m depressed about this game and we haven’t even announced the teams, yet 😞😞

Sorry if already asked - which pub are Foxes meeting at?

I can’t remember the name of it but it’s the pub where the beer glass is served half empty

Unfortunately that doesn't narrow it down these days

Cannot see it being a drawn game.

[Hales]

So Tielemans and Cags being dropped?

[Aleksz]

Can see him going with the same team and system that beat Liverpool at home with JJ at RB. That would mean dropping Barnes and Soyuncu - perhaps lines up with what Jake is suggesting.

Me too, normally I would be relishing this game at Anfield but I'm absolutely dreading it as I can only see a massacre. Our lethargic, unenthusiastic, slow passing game is tailor made for Liverpool to cash in. It's made worse by seeing teams who are below us in the table looking so good tonight

Playing devils advocate, couldn't you use the same argument for the Manager 

Possibly but experience shows that it's the change in manager that more often than not sees the toiling players regain their form rather than the manager regaining their effectiveness at the same club. Likewise the manager leaves and goes elsewhere and shows his credentials again for a certain amount of time, that's why there should be no real hard feelings. This run their course with managers in modern football, many better managers than Rodgers this has happened to and both club and manager go on to do well again elsewhere.

Yes, he may be past his sale by date here.

 

Not may managers last more the 3 years 

[RowlattsFox]

Happy that Soyuncu might get dropped..but then remembered Vestergaard might end up playing instead

I've no doubt he'll do well again somewhere else for a while

No chance will be Ndidi and Amartey

Knowing Rodgers it will probably be all 3.

And yet it seems that Rodgers’ sub-standard performance is allowed to carry on without consequence.

[jonny_wright]

Getting Pochettinho and spurs vibes from Rodgers, it just has that feeling of inevitability- I think he’ll last till next October and after  big summer backing we start the season poorly

What happens if/ when we're comfortably beaten? Do the dropped players come straight back in?

Brendan praised wilf on Sunday 

 

he won’t be dropped 

[Mickyblueeyes]

Actually have no excitement for this game. Dreading it. Will watch it as usual but that usual excitement for a game is not there.

Me too, he has one more go at spinning his bullshit and getting found out again before he's a pariah.

Watson indicates 6 changes

 

                             Kasper

albrighton    Wilf   Vestergaard   JJ.  Thomas 

                             Hamza

                     Bouba            KDH

                              Madders

                                Daka 

 

that’s 6 changes or is it 7 ?   Could be Perez I/o Bouba

Play Brunt, he deserves it after his great performance against Watford.

If there good enough play them
