Will Liverpool FC ever learn.

You been playing crazy golf again??

Yup, I hit the clowns mouth 3 days on the run. I was one over on the windmill, though.

There is nobody that fits your description who is currently available who would take the Liverpool job.

I'm impressed with the way Rodgers has spoken in the last couple of days. He knows he is in charge of a massive club (and he is) but he also knows they are some way behind where they need to be.

Liverpool had there worst season in 50yrs yet your comparing our bad season to your season because you finished above by 5pts.

I'm not sre about your managers point as there's at least 2 managers ( benitez/van gaal) that are available.

I've listened and read Brendan Rodgers comments over the last couple of days and to be honest I'm not too bothered with what he's saying he's gonna do, I want to see him do it along with a change in results and some tactics in games.
I will give him the respect and my full support regardless of whether I think he's the right man.

Like I've said in previous threads about last seasons performances, our performances at times were superb but we just couldn't put the ball in the back of the net.

You can blame the manager,coach, tactics whatever else you want but at the end of the day its the players who are paid to score goals and win matches.

Kenny did get some tactics wrong but there was only swansea who came to anfield who deserved to win because they played us off the park.

Other than that I look forward to taking another 6pts off your lot next season.

"some"

Your home record was absolutely pathetic.

How many home games did you go to last year?

The home record was poor I'm far from denying that but like I've said we played much better football/created chances then you'd think just by looking at the statistics.

This imo is an example of playing decent football and not winning games.

There was only swansea that played us off the park and that game we were fortunate to walk away with a point.
I'm blaming the players for not finishing the chances off because we created too many for it to be classed as unlucky.

Football matches aren't won by playing pretty football, which by the way Liverpool don't.

You're right, though at times last year the football was better but the majority of the poor results in the games were not down solely to tactics,poor finishing by all the players were the reason we never won more games at home.

You see my friend that's where you are wrong. I don't support Everton, Liverpool, or any premier league club so no selective vision here

But it doesn't take a genius to work out that hiring Kenny was a big big mistake and that David Moyes is an excellent manager.

Wouldn't completely ignore how important dealing with the media is btw. It's 50% of the reason Dalglish was sacked.

Call me old fashioned but why do managers have to toe the media line?

The majority of these fellas write lies,bend the truth and use the media to peddle their own agenda's. The art of fair unbiased journalism has long gone and I've no problem with how Kenny treated them especially that dope Andy Burton from sky who asks nothing but rubbish.

Ferguson refusing to speak to the BBC for the last 10yrs or so was much worse than how kennys treated them in 18 months.

Giving Kenny the job was right on the basis of the teams performance when he took over from Hodgson.
He's gone now so there's no point talking about it tbh as I've already gave my opinion on that loads of times and it still aint changed.

If Moyes is as good as you say why hasn't he been offered either the chelsea or villa job?

I think, from a personal perspective, is KD was given 4th as a minimum to keep his job as he is 61 and had to prove he could move the team forward quickly. Sadly he couldn't do it. He didn't seem to have progressed at the same pace as the EPL, he didn't seem to be able to change the teams approach if the game was getting away from us and it cost us dearly.

Rodgers is young, ambitious and highly regarded by players and managers he has worked with. Is he a quick fix?
No, far from it and FSG know that. He has been given a 3 year contract which I expect he has at least half of that time to show he is making progress in the right direction. which I hope he does get.
Rodgers may not have the CV of some of the other candidates but neither did Shankly and that's not where the similarities stop. Rodgers last game in charge of the Swans was a win against LFC, Shanks last game in charge of Huddersfield was a win against LFC. I know this means nothing but to alot of superstitious supporters it will mean alot to them.
I hope this is an appointment that will take Liverpool forward and I think it will as long as he gets the time he needs. As for that only time will tell.

Kenny went into every interview with an attitude. As stupid as some of the questions might be, he should have realised his interviews were going out all over the world and acted a bit differently. Fergie might not have spoken to the BBC for 10 years but he is generally speaking more engaging in an interview than kenny was at any point over the last 18 months.

His defence of Suarez was embaressing....

Like it or not PR is important these days. He clearly never understood that.

Villa would be a step down from Everton. Don't think there is any rhyme or reason behind anything that goes on at Chelsea. I suspect had Arry got the England job Moyes would have been a contender for the Spurs job.
