    Another heap of shyte. The booing is getting louder, only 37k people there apparently, although it did look fuller than that. Perhaps a lot of the spare seats were in the centenary.

    Lose at the weekend the international break will just be full of speculation, but sadly I don't think he'd get sacked unless we get almost embarrassed at Goodison.

    First half was the disjointed mess I'm used to. Second half, I think Sion got tired and we suffered from lackluster finishing mixed with decent saves from their keeper, but there was some nice flashes of movement in there. Rodgers' European record is actually so bad.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,983 ✭✭✭✭NukaCola


    Worse or on par with Hodgson? Who cares just get rid.

    Hodgson had a very good record in Europe for us funnily enough. BR's is poor.

    Before the madness starts, I don't know where to go to find out things like this so could someone help?

    How many times has Jordan Ibe started for Liverpool and ended up on the winning side?

    You might want to because it fits your narrative, but you can't keep blaming individuals.

    It was Coutinho against Carlisle, Ibe tonight.

    At some point even you have to just give in and say a change of manager is necessary.

    I dunno,I'd say a loss and he's gone.

    Completely rudderless atm.

    Three years in and Rodgers remains entirely clueless how to set up a team for European football. Even if we did somehow miraculously manage to sneak fourth in the league, we'd be gone by the CL knock out stages again

    Spot on, it will be someone else on Sunday.

    He has to go after the derby regardless of the result

    Ibe should be on loan. Why is he our only winger?

    Unless it's 3-0 or worse, I honestly don't think he'll be sacked, and even then possibly not.

    He should be, but he won't.

    It really is a feat to have put together a squad in which only 1 of the 50 odd players has any sort of balls in the final third.

    Is it coaching or do we make a point of seeking out mentally weak players that **** themselves when it comes to the crunch?:confused:

    All these lads - Origi, Lallana, Allen, Can, Coutinho - they can do some lovely things with the football when they get into their stride, but if you put any of them on the spot they **** it up Every. Single. Time.

    I guess when even probably the best player of all time is incapable of scoring a penalty and is a serial misser of sitters, maybe it indicates that almost nobody can handle making a decision in front of goal?

    That's not true. He won 2 games from 6. Utrecht and a Gerrard Hat trick to beat napoli.

    I'd rather see how many times he lost possession.......really awful. However the manager playing him at WB isn't helping.

    Young players being completely hung out to dry by Rodgers.

    Ibe who hasn't a notion what to do in this system. He has some ability, we've seen flashes of it, but he not got a clue what he is supposed to be at out there.

    Gomez. Should be on loan getting experience, Illori should be in.

    Rossiter. Should be in the gym. Or on loan. Chirivella should be in, Allen should be in. Can should be playing in his position. Actually Can would do a good job playing wide right, as he plays or has played RB for Germany.

    Origi. Bought last year, wasn't really fancied so we bought Ings. Now he is a multi million pound 4th striker. Great.

    Ah fck it, you could go on.

    Still it's all the fault of our vastly inexperienced RWB who should be playing at the other end of the pitch....yeah, lets blame Ibe.

    Muppetry. Henson level muppetry.

    Unbeaten in Europe lads, let's celebrate!

    Yeah. Ibe. :rolleyes::rolleyes:

    Will he Billy big balls it in the presser tonight.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 40,059 ✭✭✭✭Harry Palmr


    Can at right centre back
    Can at centre back
    Can in central midfield
    Clyne at left back
    Gomez at right back
    Ibe at left wing back
    Ibe at right wing back (crap in both)
    Rossiter and Allen as the engine room

    I mean is anyone shocked at the result when Rodgers is jamming pieces together to make a psychopathic jigsaw?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,983 ✭✭✭✭NukaCola

    Won 6 drew 4

    That Sion team were genuinely crap. Criminal not to beat them at home.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,740 ✭✭✭✭MD1990


    Very disapointed with Ibe. He is low in confidence & being played WB. Its a common theme that happens with our players who are moved around position But he needs to start taking these chances or I think a loan move in January could be a good move for him.


  • Subscribers Posts: 32,889 ✭✭✭✭5starpool

    I wonder how long it'll be until the "You don't know what you're doing" chants are broken out?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,867 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    I don't know how anyone can defend any aspect of the job Rodgers is doing anymore.

    I understand the players occasionally let you down.
    I understand that keepers sometimes keep the team out no matter what's thrown at him.
    I understand that integrating new players isn't always easy.

    But there's too much evidence now that he's not up to it, and it keeps building.

    Wonder if he'll go into hiding again and send out Gary Mac to front up the press.
