Vestan Pance Posted 19 October 2022 Posted 19 October 2022 (edited) Just a thought, does Top think the ESL stuff will kick off again so isn't bothered as there will be no relegation this season? Seems more plausible than thinking we'll stay up by doing the same thing over and over.😂 Edited 19 October 2022 by Vestan Pance
Dan Posted 20 October 2022 Posted 20 October 2022 (edited) I think the sad truth is that he's been getting it wrong for a while but what's happened on the pitch created the illusion of the opposite, and it's taken a shambolic start to the season to really alert people as to what a mess we're making. When you lay the facts bare it's damning. Somebody did it on the last page. Forget just the dog shit on the pitch this season, but what a farce the summer was. The fact that we've bought ourselves into a position where we can barely sign anybody. It's Everton-like. Not having a head of analytics anymore despite the fact we used this kind of method to bring in players like Kante. Being held at the mercy of Southampton all summer to bring in a head of recruitment. People just shrugged their shoulders on the assumption everything would be OK. These were all signs of the ineptness for a lot of the last few years, going back to the appointment of Congerton, and it's taken a manager who has given up on the club for people to realise it. Our best hope is he finally sees sense, bins off this charlatan and then the head of recruitment is genuinely good at his job. With the way the last couple of years have gone though, I'd expect he probably jumps ship within the year. Edited 20 October 2022 by Dan LCFC 3
volpeazzurro Posted 20 October 2022 Posted 20 October 2022 Mention has been made of Rodgers influence bringing in staff of his own choice. Toure and Congerton spring to mind as obvious one's. We also know that Dave Rennie's services were no longer required any longer at one point. Does anyone know of any more staff members who's recruitment he may have influenced or new positions created? Also anyone else who's positions have been lost?

I can't see him flying to East Midlands to sit around for a couple of hours before flying to Bangkok when he could just fly straight there from London.

I actually think most Fans have applauded the upturn we are all witnessing, and long may it continue. I suspect most passionate fans of the club said things they question now, or will hold in reserve should our form drop off a cliff again. However Fair play to you for your 100% backing, and never in doubt attitude, watching those opening matches of the season and having no reservations. 1
filbertway Posted 15 November 2022 Posted 15 November 2022 The man has still presided over a regression which is why this summer was so weak. We're on target for around 42 points so far this season, which is well below the expectations. We're at major risk of losing the only 2 players that are capable of getting us a goal out of our very limited attacking play, for way below their market value. We appear to have very little money available and allowed our wage budget to spiral out of control. I think I've said in this thread that one of Vichai's greatest strengths was an ability to learn from mistakes and that Top needs to display a similar trait. One day we'll find out why Rodgers actually kept his job after that start. It's my opinion that it wasn't just because Top thought 1 point from 7 games was acceptable and part of some master plan. Part of me hopes it was a genius bluff, if it really was out of some mad loyalty then I do think that's a weakness of ours as a club that needs nipping in the bud. Faes and Knudsen coming in show that it's healthy to have no faces and opinions to keep things from going stale. 3

Don't be ridiculous. Surely you can see that it's possible to have had 'reservations' without feeling the need to spout hateful idiotic bile. Or is everything actually all-or-nothing for you?
