    Good result for Liverpool. A lot of positives to take from the result and the performance I think.

    Unfortunately some Liverpool fans will agree with this...

    Problem for Liverpool is they are so poor it'll be hard to get a decent coach to come in if they sack Rogers.

    A fair result, not much difference in quality between the two

    Were you not watching the Utd game?

    Or is this just trolling?

    Lucky to escape with a draw in the end. We are a poor team at the minute.

    There not a poor team though. Loads of potential there but it's not happening. They should have won easily today just shocking finishing.

    I think they're poor, the amount f wastage there is unreal, it's hard to see were they go from here.

    It needs an onfield and off field overhaul, beg Kloop to come and get a DOF in that he is happy with

    There is plenty there to work on to make top 4. Missing a world class player but it's far from poor.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,817 ✭✭✭✭Charlie19


    only four points off third.

    It needs a lot more than that, one WC player gets you competing top 4 only if he's a goalscorer. Coutinho is your best player and he struggles to get in to any of the other top 4/5 teams

    Liverpool are a mid table team these days akin to Spurs.

    It's kinda sad really. Even over the last few years you always thought they had a tiny chance of grabbing the title but not anymore. I don't see them winning another title this side of 2020.

    That team finished should have won the league two years ago with a world class player in it. That team went to the Emirates few games back and played them off the field for 45 mins. If the players aren't good enough isn't Rodgers doing well to get them up around top 4.

    Inclined to agree. The standard of player has really really dropped. Throughout the years Liverpool always had players that would get into any team in the league. Owen, Alonso, Gerrard, Suarez. For whatever reason that no longer is the case, you can pick 1 or 2 players here and there that would get in at some of the better teams, but Liverpool are so in need of a standout player to drive the rest of the team forward and inspire enthusiasm.

    Ah 2 yrs ago was a freak, ran with the confidence. You've lost all your front 3 from that really.

    Playing Arsenal off the field for 45mins is nothing, you've been **** the other half of that game and every other

    A top manager can take an average squad to greatness. Simeone did it with Atletico, Mourinho did it with Porto.

    A poor manager can drag a good team to mediocrity. That's what Rodgers is doing with us right now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,107 ✭✭✭✭niallo27


    It's not about winning the title for liverpool. Top 4 has to be the aim. That's just life.

    That period when Suarez, Sterling and Sturridge were destroying all around them seems a mile away from what Liverpool have in an attacking sense now, including Sturridge who hasn't been fit enough to make any real impact since.

    If Southampton got a world class player they could break top 4 too

    I think if Liverpool get a good manager in Southampton will be their direct rivals for 6th place, Spurs are a little better than them

    Our current squad is quite good on paper. Mignolet is a poor keeper and only Sakho would remain at CB if I were in charge, but we should still be doing much better than we are currently, and for that I blame Rodgers.

    ignoring the trolls (Man Utd. fans that need those 'little victories', hence why they chose to support that club) and actually looking at the game, there is very definitely a difference in quality between the two teams. Liverpool have far better players and you could see that in how they were able to control the ball and work the attacks. Where they fall down is that nearly every attack is overcooked to f**k. Extra unnecessary touches, no direction and panicked decision making. At the end up the first half, if we were a team playing with confidence and direction, we would have been 1 if not 2 up. Norwich weren't doing anything special and looked pretty sloppy. Eventually we do get a goal, and as we know in football 1 is never enough and Martin did really well for his goal (difference between Ruddy and Mignolet there - Ruddy looked assured all day and caught everything, Mignolet punches clear once and it cost him. Mignolet doesn't have that assuredness you see in some keepers).
    When we had to chase for our second, despite having plenty of skillful players (firminio, lallana, coutinho) we had absolutely no direction with them, overcooked leading up play or undercooked shots. To me, thats down to the coach and the leaders on the pitch. I don't think we have a clear plan as to how to win a game and I think for sure we need to be better organised. We are better than Norwich, we have better players, we are a better quality team - we just don't seem to have a clue how to use it and that comes down to a man called Brendan.

    The majority don't, some do. Those that do are a pain in the hole for utd fans, same as the likes of Mick is a pain in the hole for Liverpool fans. Why should a few on either side make things annoying for the majority of the others? Saying 'well ye do it' is missing the point entirely.

    Hang on Mickers. You told me Suarez was overrated and only scored against the poor teams and was it you that posted the amount of points that Suarez goals won and it made very little difference. Which is it mickey.

    I did read the post wrong, but I don't think that he was solely responsible for that season.

    Sturridge still managed 21 goals, Gerrard got to double figures iirc, and our midfield fed Suarez a lot of ball.

    He was the catalyst and made others up their effort.

    Whilst I don't think SAS was down to Rodgers, to say Suarez was the only reason for 13/14 is wrong.

    problem is maybe in the next few games it only be "7 points" off third, then it'll be only "9 points off third" and then it'll be "12 points" etc etc... :(

    Never know could be an exciting season for pool fans

    Rodgers gets far too much stick imo. Of his front three, both Suarez and Sterling have forced moves to bigger clubs. Sturridge needs to start praying to a new god because the current one isn't helping him on the injuries front. Stevie Me was never a leader, but he was too big for Rodgers to take on or replace directly.

    Any manager is going to struggle in those scenarios. Sure, Rodgers has made a few mis-steps in the transfer market, but all managers do, and his work this summer was pretty good all things considered for a club with no CL football to offer.

    Liverpool fans need to keep the faith. Rodgers has a young team with a lot of potential. They have to trust that Rodgers will lead them to where they deserve to be.

    And honestly, who are they going to replace Rodgers with? Neither Sherwood nor Moyes are currently available. Maybe at the end of the season.

    Have go disagree with some of this Sand.
    I would safely say they have kept good faith in him long enough.

    I would agree with you about replacements. I'm really not sure who they can replace him with. Moyes would be a good fit IMO.

    He could get them organised at the very least. There all over the place defensively.

    He has got the big club experience that Rodgers lacks. And he has bags of PL experience. I think if there was a role available back in Liverpool, he would be very tempted.
