I want him gone too but they were hardly comments of a "coward". He was right, we created enough chances to win that game easy tonight. Origi should have scored and Ings had some good chances too.

We conceded enough chances to lose that game too though.

It was a far more open game than it ever should have been, with Sion made to look a lot better than they are. They were allowed to string together some great moves, but mostly because we weren't pressuring them. While their passing was often accurate, it was made easy by them always having a free man to receive the ball with time to pick his next pass.

Just another disappointing performance where we sank to the level of the opposition rather than outclassing them.

Anyone else thing fsg are waiting to have someone ready to step in before pulling the trigger? I reckon he is gone and they are waiting on the replacement.

I honestly think the opposite. It's the reason I don't post much about wanting him gone anymore. I've posted enough on that for the last 18 months. I'm resigned to the fact he is here for the foreseeable.

What I can see happening though is that the fanbase will start to turn their attention to FSG, and only then will something happen. My feeling is that they could leave it too late to appease the fans and the relationship between fans and FSG will be irreparable. Then the **** will truly hit the fan.

Hopefully not. I see them as selfish business men. Liverpool fc doing well is aligned with the asset maintaining its value. Attendances are beginning to drop. They are obviously not stupid business wise. They dont really care about the club but do care about flipping for a profit in the future.

Wouldn't even go as far as to say Selfish - they're just businessmen full stop. If anything, i would say they've actually been surprisingly moral in their dealings with us so far.

They could easily have lumped debt onto the club, or taken revenue out of the club, or any other number of things they're entitled to do, but they never have. They've increased the clubs revenue, and allowed all of it to go back into the club itself, to make LFC self sustaining for the long haul.

Their problem thus far has just been not bringing in more football minded people of a high calibre to help them out. It's the first thing they tried to do, with Comolli, and they looked to do it again when they were sounding out Van Gaal about a DoF position. Hopefully with this transfer committee nonsense having proven to be a disaster, it's an approach they might move back towards if they're bringing in a new manager.

didnt bother watching, solid choice

Fsg really have to act now, season is going poor with no signs of a turnaround however the season is also very much saveable at the minute, very much still in all competitions.

On origi, I must say I was quietly impressed him bar his finishing. Looks a strong quick runner which we haven't seen from him yet. His missed were poor for sure but there's certainly a good player there somewhere.
On Ibe however I am very worried, I'm well aware he is out of position and its bull**** from Rodgers that he is still playing players out of postion but he was burning people for fun last season but now he looks completely void of confidence. Markovic would of course be an ideal replacement but hey, we fcuking loaned him out.

Wonder how toure is also? If he's injured for the weekend we have two for centre backs, do we even have any knocking about the academy?

Well, we have one on loan at Aston Villa, does that help?


I have to say i am baffled by the treatment of some of our perennial loanees, that's another one of my gripes with Rodgers.

Is there anything to be said for another mass?

Yeah bizzare alright, ilori impressed at two clubs playing at a pretty high level yet we were happy to choose a midfielder who clearly is not a centre back over him aswell as a kid who played half a season at charlton, makes no sense.

He impressed who exactly?
9 games for Granada and 12 for Bordeaux.

Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't you advocate for Gomez to be a starting player in our back 3?

So Ilori has impressed people in multiple games at a fairly high level yet you think Gomez has impressed more? It was 15 for Bordeaux if you're counting cups btw, as well as impressing internationally in the under age team. So a little bit more experience at a higher standard than Gomez.

Is Rodgers bad in Europe or is it just a symptom of the general English malaise in Europe.

He is bad, two wins in ten

It seems that English clubs in Europe are just not good enough the last 2/3 years.

Im not sure what has changed or if the other countries can see through our game easier....
