Johnson is really fucking far from a top defender. Flanagan has put him to shame.

We WERE warned about Johnson.

I'm surprised he is still in a job.

Would apparently cost Leicester a lot to shift him and his backroom staff. They have financial issues with FFP and their owner lost a lot of money during the pandemic in terms of business value. Think his/family business worth halved.
 

Also, he’s ‘excited’ by the challenge of being in the relegation zone. Not sure that’s how the fans see it.

What’s more exciting? Relegation battle or mid table obscurity?

 

Don't tell me…ask David Moyes.

Imagine ever thinking that Rodgers was a good manager.

The biggest WTF about him getting the Liverpool job is that FSG actually spoke to him in person and still offered him the job. Reckon it'd take me about five seconds to realise he was a wanker, my skin crawling as soon as he started speaking would be the biggest clue.

He speaks exactly the same bollocks that American capitalist speak. So he was always a good choice for FSG.

Almost won us the league until Paul mockered him.

The distinction between coach and manager has blurred in the past couple of decades and it's caused some problems. Not every manager can coach and not every coach can manage. Rodgers is probably a top class coach but he's convinced that means he must be a great manager. He's wasting his own talent by pursuing the wrong ambitions.

Credit where it’s due, I remember you called Rodgers correctly even before he’d set foot through the door.

On his way back to Celtic.

Penny for your thoughts @Bjornebye

Massive backwards step that. What’s to be gained from managing the best team in a farmers league, will they even pay as well as a top tier championship club? Should have went to Palace or stuck around for a premier league club after the first round of sackings.

[Mook]

Is every league which isn't pumped up with TV money a 'farmer's league' now?

 

I find that phrase very ignorant tbh, seen someone applying it to the Spanish league on here recently too.

I think any league where a treble is expected or seen as the norm is probably fair game.

 

I wouldn't put Spain in their, France probably should be but it's only PSG''s incompetence that prevents it from being a fully signed up farmers league.
