Things have gone badly badly wrong for Rodgers but he understands the club and what managing it means. Two completely different fish.

“For me, the ideal situation would obviously have been for Mourinho to have managed Liverpool. He was linked with a move to Anfield a couple of times but it never materialised. “I know I’m biased, but I think it would have been a perfect match. The Liverpool fans would have loved him and he would have known exactly how to turn that love into adoration. He always told me about his deep respect for our supporters. Jose would have had a fantastic time bringing huge success to Liverpool.

If you don't love Liverpool Football Club because it is Liverpool Football Club and all that it stands for then why bother supporting them? Btw this is not a pro Rodgers post, I think his time has come. He got the support he needed and it hasn't worked out. But to say all that matters is winning goes against everything we believe we are as a club. This isn't even a footballing point as I don't think its about playing attractive football but its about treating the club and its history with dignity, something Hodgson didn't do and for all his faults Rodgers has done. This is not worse than the Hodgson era but its bad enough at this stage that time should be called.

Confidence has been knocked with fans and players but I have a feeling that things will improve 10 fold '' if'' Sturidge returns and forms a partnership with Benteke. The one think that's clear is we need help for Benteke. For Rodgers to play Ings and Firmino as wide deep lying midfield players was a cowardly approach to yesterdays game. You need a genuine threat in this league to wins games,to go there and to clearly play for a 0-0 was wrong, that's not Liverpool, that's not even Bournemouth.
