Eds should Ilori have a blinder at AVFC are we still able to hold on to him?
{Ed002's Note - I would have thought he has been messed about enough and will be carefully considering his future.

See top of rumours page for your answer
2.) 10 Sep 2015 20:37:07
Cheers - then I can keep the glimmer of hope alive

Rodgers is unlikely to outlive the season and as a result, everybody's in with a shout at LFC under a new boss. Hears hoping.

It will be interesting to see how he gets on in the premier league.
19 Aug 2015 19:34:26
With all the scouts 100's apparently- haha
Hope Illori and Tiexeira stays with our 1st team squad.
19 Aug 2015 08:31:42
Ed - with all the rumours re. Sack leaving - which I hate - he's one of the few leaders we have.
Does this mean we have Illori and Gomez and Toare as our back-up to Skertl and Lovren?
Surely not
{Ed001's Note - yes.}
1.) 19 Aug 2015 13:09:16
Doubtful we will see anymore arrivals ed ain't it?
{Ed001's Note - yes.}
2.) 19 Aug 2015 13:58:22
If there was an injury to skrtel or lovren, do you see it being toure then ilori if toure is on the bench?
{Ed001's Note - I would hope it would be Ilori getting the nod, but it does seem likely it would be either Toure or Gomez moving across.}
3.) 19 Aug 2015 14:11:24
Maybe we'll sign some more spanish kiddies hooray.
17 Aug 2015 16:01:32
Dear Ed 001
Do you know whether Anfields' new pitch has been laid? And if it's been tested yet?
{Ed001's Note - next summer mate.}

We are Liverpool tra la la la la - poetry in motion.
Liverpool fans love that. Love the fact that we are playing attacking, attractive football. Rogers is committed to that. We can't have it both ways. I genuinely like Lucas as a man and player, have supported him on here for years, but he SLOWS our attack down. On turnover possession the game stalls at his feet
He's simply a round peg in a square hole in Roger's style and system.
Good luck to him in the future. Wish him all the best.
{Ed001's Note - sorry Rodgers is committed to what? Have you watched us at all last season, or in this preseason or the first match? There is nothing attacking or attractive about us. Rodgers is committed to slow build ups and pass, pass, pass football. That is what he sees as the way to play the game, not all out attack.
As for Lucas slowing our attack down, that is just a lie. He has always taken the ball and played it quickly, forward if possible. There is nothing about him that slows the play down, so if he is holding on to the ball, then it is simply a lack of options as he likes to move it quick. That was what Rafa liked about him in the holding role, was the way he would get it and always look to move it on quickly and preferably forward to launch a counter. So for anyone to suggest he is slowing the game down himself is clueless. That is a tactical issue, not an issue of singular players that our play is slow.}

I'm happy to disagree Ed.
I love the way everybody ignores the fact that last year was an abomination - Suarez out, Sturrige out - T Committee forcing Mario and others. Yet - Rogers is the sole blame carrier. Many on here placing all the credit on the previous year on Suarez and fluke.
Like I said - I and many see it differently. There seems a genuine dislike on here for Rogers - Yet - one of the Clubs Legends in Gerrard wishes he played longer under Rogers - I'll go with Gerrard on this one.
All player move on -no one likes being dropped by the coach - never have and never will - but to evertime read - 'treated badly by Rogers' is sounding petty and boring now. I too disagree with some of Roger's selections and preferences, but i'm a fan not a manager - I don't see 100% clearly BR's thinking and behind the scenes.
Excuse the mini-rant
{Ed001's Note - you do realise Rodgers agreed to the signing of Balotelli right? Or does that not suit your delusions? Anyway he is the manager, he has to learn to manage the players at his disposal and to say he is not guilty because he failed to do so is ludicrous and shows a complete lack of understanding of his role.
By the way, the issue all last season was the way we played, not who was missing. If you can't understand that then it is a waste of time having this discussion because you are childish enough to assume it is related to a personal dislike of Rodgers, rather than him being inept and judged as so. As for what Gerrard said, funny how he says other things in private and pretty much retracted those comments as soon as he left the club, but let's gloss over that because it wouldn't suit the deluded viewpoint. But yes, let's go with what Gerrard said about his boss while it could have made the difference between him getting games or sitting on the sidelines. I am sure he gave his true thoughts and not did as he was contracted to do and say the right things.
You clearly are not in the know, as you are whining on about the committee being at fault, when Rodgers had the final say. He is the manager, it is his job to take the blame because it is his job to make the final decisions.}
2.) 12 Aug 2015 07:15:20
I wouldn't be surprised if more passes were made to Mignolet than Benteke on the weekend - doesn't sound very attacking to me. Lucas is actually the right fit. Unfortunately Rodgers must have failed geometry as he is struggling with pegs and holes - and has been since he arrived.
3.) 12 Aug 2015 07:21:35
You're right I'm not ITK. I'm just a fan from SA. Trying to support a team I love.
I read that Rogers was given a choice of Mario and another, chosen by the TC. Like I said I'm not ITK.
I battle to see how one can ignore the loss of Suarez and Sturrge, effectively our strike force out. I saw a manager change systems numerous times to adapt.
No matter where we're on the log or who is managing LFC I'll be watching my first game at Anfield next year.
Cheers

{Ed001's Note - it is not a case of ignoring it, it is a case of a manager failing to create any kind of solution to a problem that he knew was coming. It is a complete lack of forward planning.
I hope you get to see a good win when you get there and have a great time.}
4.) 12 Aug 2015 07:34:18
Poetry in motion - 2013/2014 season - great attacking football over most of the 38 League Games - oh by the way Lucas played in 26 of those games.
5.) 12 Aug 2015 07:35:43
Gerrard wanted to play under Rodgers so much that he left! Bit of a theme that, players wanting to leave Liverpool while Rodgers is manager. They probably realise they have a cat in hells chance of winning the league or even playing in the Champions League while Rodgers is manager.
As for Big A saying we play attractive attacking football that is hilarious even at half 7 in the morning. We are one of the most boring teams to watch, the only time we were attractive was when Suarez was pulling the team along
6.) 12 Aug 2015 07:52:14
I think what Gerard meant to say was that if he met Rodgers 10 years ago he would have won more titles as he would have fed off to Chelsea as soon as he realised what a mess Rodgers was creating at Liverpool
7.) 12 Aug 2015 10:33:53
Oh no, Ed, you've got it all wrong. Rogers is the victim.Pascoe was the real culprit. He and his cohorts, we're secret Man Utd fans, manipulating Rogers with advanced mind control techniques. It's not as straightforward as it looks.
8.) 12 Aug 2015 22:54:51
Big A is just one in a long list of BR apologists who will do and say anything, including the most deluded and baseless comments, to the point of trashing players BR is freezing it of the team and treating disgracefully, in order to absorb him of blame for his many failures. Now, they have to reinvent facts like how the TC failed him whereas he is the head or how injuries and departures led to him being found out to be a poor manager, just to make their baseless points. Pathetic!
9.) 12 Aug 2015 23:44:18
Easier to attack the poster than make an objective coherent point.

I am so p!ssed off at this one. If this is purely pride and Brenda not playing Transfer Comm players he deserved to get sacked. Pride Fall?!

Would have made more sense than bringing Ibe on last night for sire
