Rodgers Out

[FrenchEyeGlass 1,215]

Couldn't get in the team? He was injured against United and didn't make another appearance because he was injured. You're making out as if he hasn't played because he's shit. That's just nonsense. He isn't playing because he's injured.

 

Its not nonsense. I cannot be bothered to go back and find the matches but he started on the bench numerous times.

Okay. Well, I can be bothered.

 

Matchday 1 - West Brom. Started.

Matchday 2 - Arsenal. Started.

Matchday 3 - Sunderland. Started.

Matchday 4 - Sunderland. Started.

Matchday 5 - Man Utd. Started. Injured, off at HT.

 

As explained here Borini originally sustained an injury against United. He sat, unused, on the next two league games with suspected 'bruised ankle' before it was properly diagnosed after coming back from Italy.

 

I'm not saying he set the world on fire, I'm just saying he was injured and needed surgery. That's the reason he has played five league games, not because he's shit.

Thanks. I didn't realise this so I apologize. Sorry. I was under the impression he had been dropped. It seems that was a false impression.

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

Wait, you changed your mind when presented with evidence. What kind of shit is this? I expect blind denials. Now.

Wondered what the fuck had happened to this thread, now I realise its open day on Tuesdays.

Brilliant again.

Haha, that would be TLW, after all.

 

Well, lets hope he comes back and does well. Where do you think he will play? With us signing Tom Ince and Sturridge (apparently), its hard to predict.

Hmm, it's an interesting one. I've expressed an opinion on another forum about actually replacing Gerrard with Suarez in a 4-2-3-1. Then it'd depend on who comes in. Assuming we went for somebody like Sturridge and Walcott, I'd go for...

 

-------Sturridge--------Suarez---------Walcott--------

 

------------------------Borini--------------------------

 

Still, I'd certainly want Suarez in a Gerrard role when he was with Torres. He scored shit loads in that position, I think Suarez can too. He already has with Hunterlaar. EDIT: I'm saying this on the assumption we'll play a defensive player or two behind them.

 

Can't see Ince getting much of a start. Might be wrong.

It's hard to know how it will all shape up. But it will be fucking delightful to have options.

[Jairzinho 25,458]

Now he's making excuses for the players he hasnt even bought yet..

 

Tom Ince and Daniel Sturridge set for Liverpool | Mail Online

 

If he's making excuses for anyone there its the owners.

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

Agree. Big window coming up. Ince and Sturridge aren't enough

Thats interesting. I see the merits of playing Suarez behind the striker as he likes to drop deep as it is, anyway. But in the formation you've typed out above, Sturridge and Borini could be interchangeable.

 

I really don't think we will get Walcott, though.

[Guest davelfc]

Ince and Sturridge are not enough, we all know that but I don't think we are asking or expecting a full fix in January and it's a bit naughty of him to believe we are.

 

January is the second fist at what was a fuck up in the summer.

[Bjornebye 34,222]

messi has signed a new deal at barca. so were not getting him then.

[Bobby Hundreds 10,545]

Something that worries me a little is we signed Allen and borini if he was backed further he would of bough sigurdsson and Dempsey that would of been a huge wedge of money for what, to cement ourselves firmly alongside the likes of Fulham. Those players for the outlay are mediocrity. Your premier league jobbers. January needs to be fucking spectacular.

[Anubis 21,766]

I remain far from convinced we should be spunking any money on Ince at all.

Nah I think I'll stick with the 05/06 season as originally suggested.

 

 

but you are basing your opinion on the fact we won a cup. i presume you would concede that 09 was better if we had lost to west ham in 06 and im also assuming you would argue that last seasons league cup winning team was better than 09 simply because it won something.

[GodWearsNumber9 2]

I wouldn't rule out a swap deal for Downing...

 

 

 

...Well okay, that's not very fair.

 

 

 

We can have David Villa too.

Lets be honest mate after the last few years can you see us making anything other then a monumental fuck up?

 

He needs to do spectacularly well and get the most out of his resources, don't think I've got the confidence that will happen though

It won't be though and that's the horror of it. From that Mail interview - "'I see lots of names bandied about and with all due respect names that are pie in the sky because there won't be too many top players moving about in January because clubs want top money."

 

I'm not entirely sure how they expect us to get top players at anytime other than to pay top money but the problem is top players won't be arsed coming to play for us with the state we are in so I'd be staggered if we got Walcott and I don't even really rate him (but obviously an upgrade on what we have). Looking to resign Tom Ince? Contract wranglings with with our most promising youngsters? Court cases and sackings left, right and centre?

 

I reckon Henry and Werner are a bunch of grade A Dope Fiends. Constantly hammered on that prescription Shoreline. There is no other explanation for what we have seen since they arrived.

 

And whatever may come of it, thank fuck we never signed Sigurdsson and Dempsey.

There's a massive difference. Kenny spent 35m on a striker, 20m on a winger, 24m on midfielders, £16m on defenders, in order to take the team forward. After a season and a half and three transfer windows, he didn't do that and there was no signs of a prosperous future. Kenny, like Code, was more than happy with the players he had in and thought it required

 

Dalglish had one window as full time manager where funds were available.

 

You're not very objective when it comes to discussing the job he did but I'm sure you still love him like a brother.

[Gym Beglin 1,430]

I don't know when we even started to judge managers after 4 months, it's fucking bang out of line.

 

Hodgson bucked the trend, because for eons we judged on seasons, not months.

 

Fucking now, now, now, want wahhh.

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

Dalglish had one window as full time manager where funds were available.

 

I guess that's one way to hide two transfer windows and nearly £60m outlay. Quite how you have the nerve to question my objectivity when your sole objective here is to hide any wrong doing by Kenny and trump up any thing else, well, it's quite laughable. You post about almost nothing else other than trying to hide Kenny's flaws. Fortunately, he's more honest about it than you.

[TheHowieLama 13,154]

All players should be on pay as you play - managers flat fee per win.
