He looks like a hammerhead shark
Chances that's something Rogers personally did himself.... 1%.
Although it relies on the bloke telling the Echo.That is a great gesture, and I don't want to be too cynical.... but, in this day and age, it's hard not to just think "great PR move, that".
I'm not sure those stats back up a notion of 'shit or bust'.
Furthermore, my initial statement was that side was one of the best attacking sides in years. Still haven't had a stat or opinion that refutes that. Probably because I'm correct.

Really? Smacks of form letters to meSeems to have his style down to a tee, I wouldn't be surprised if he wrote it himself.
60% of goals scored in 66% of the time! What a massive differenceIt wasn't one game, it was the majority of your matches. The Palace game merely emphasised the point on the penultimate game of the season.
Me saying Liverpool were a shit-or-bust team last season isn't based on some biased notion that Liverpool weren't all that, it's based on facts:
- 60% of Liverpool's goals scored came inside the first hour.
- 60% of Liverpool's conceded goals came in the second half.
- Liverpool "won" 25 first halves, but only 16 second halves.
- Additionally, they "lost" 6 first halves, but 12 second halves.
- Liverpool won points in just two games that they were behind in at half-time in (1 draw and 1 win).
- Of these two games, Liverpool were level or winning inside 65 minutes.
- Liverpool lost all but one of the games in which they failed to score in the first half (the one they won was the final day).
- Liverpool conceded second half goals in 23 matches, conceding first half goals in 15 matches.
- Liverpool went in at half-time level on 7 occasions, eventually losing 2, drawing 1, and winning the other 4.
- Of those 4, Liverpool were winning inside the hour in 2, and won the other 2 via penalties.
- Additionally, 2 were against teams that were eventually relegated, with the other 2 being against Stoke and West Ham.
Liverpool didn't record a single goal-less draw last season. If they didn't score, they lost.

Going behind and them getting a red was all a part of his master plan so no need to celebrate. I think the comparisons to Shankley went to his head a bit last season.He seriously needs to bin the Nazi salute.
Just celebrate and show some joy you jumped up wanker.

I'd say it's about the one time where it's actually appropriate and quite moving.
Imaging United doing it.
"Your's sincerely,
Louis Van Gaal
Glory Glory Man United"
Doesn't work really does it?!
"At whatever point I leave here hopefully I'll be leaving something people can be proud of," he said.
"We now have to rubber-stamp that by winning some silverware."
Rodgers has won 53, drawn 24 and lost 22 of 99 league matches since taking charge at Anfield in June 2012.
"I've enjoyed every minute of my time here. These two and a half years have been a great experience and I think the football club have moved forward," he added
Yeah, a few months ago it would have made sense, but now seems odd.
Strange, as it seems that he's pretty much steadied the ship.
I think he's just musing on his future legacy. He loves to talk.
Wonder if he got us into the champions league and won us a trophy he'd consider walking away. His stock would still be high. He clearly isn't the biggest fan of how the club handle transfers.
Oh look, there's Pexbo having another dig at Rodgers.
