How many points in next 5 games to keep Rodgers?

[oxtonfox]

So in our next 5 premier league matches how many points do you think we need to get for Brendan to keep his job? 

I would say 7 as an absolute minimum but I think 9 is needed to keep us in touch before the tougher games come. 

[StanSP]

We should be aiming for 15. 

 

Or hopefully just 3 as he's clearly getting the Forest game. Then he can fvck off and give another manager a chance. 

[Barrowblue]

Not many apparently 

[filbertway]

0. He's proven to be un-sackable at this stage.

[Nalis]

14 points or he needs to go

[Matt]

0.

 

Any more than that earns him a lucrative lifetime contract. Unsackable.

[Ian S]

If he is in charge for all the games, 4 if lucky.

[Oldfox67]

An absolute minimum of 16 points or he's jettisoned off

[moore_94]

We can't lose any of them, this is the easiest run of games we have all season

 

Forest (H)

Bournemouth (A)

Palace (H)

Leeds (H)

Wolves (A)

 

We need to be winning all 3 games at home, and at least getting draws at the 2 away games

 

We need to be getting at least 11 points

 

IF he gets all 5 games I honestly expect probably at most 5 points

[SecretPro]

Doesn't need to get any points. Top loves him, fans and club don't matter.

[Guest Lcfc82]

13 minimum - should be targeting wins in all of them

[GlenParvaFox]

16, nothing less.

[Grebfromgrebland]

13

I don’t think he’ll get sacked anyway tbh, but my prediction is:

Florists- draw

Bournemouth - win

Palace- loss

Leeds - draw 

Wolves- draw

6 points from the next possible 15

I can’t see 6 being enough. We’d still be bottom with 7 points from 12 games with Man City and Liverpool to come and will have conceded points to relegation rivals. 

Even our very tolerant board would have to pull the trigger with that meagre return 

 

 

[foxfanazer]

There is no point

[blueharmie]

I trust Liz truss more than Brendan at this point , so that says something in itself.

[Fox seen in Norwich]

It’s not merely points. Defence performance needs to improve. He’ll just need the team to imply improvement, even in defeats, and he’ll stay

[BACKO]

40pts

[oxtonfox]

Performances don’t and will not save us by themselves, we need points now and definitely in the next 5 games. 

Even our board must know this.

Pretty much what I was going to say. 

 

16 or he should be sacked. 

[Silva Fox]

Sadly this is also a "pointless" thread

[iancognito]

11-12. 3 wins and 2 draws or 4 wins.

Anything less than that or even a draw + another half-assed performance against the Trees and I think he's toast. But I've been saying that for a month. Every. Single. Week. It's about attitude from here on in. From him and the players. You'rte either up for it or you're not. If you're not, fck off.

That’s quite a tough ask from 5 games. Three wins should keep him in place.

16
