The envelope gag is a direct steal from Ferguson.
Liverpool lost to Chelsea at home and then drew 3-3 at Crystal Palace despite being 3-0 up at one point with Barney thinking they were going to win it on goal difference.Looking back, its pretty crazy how the table looked with 3 games left. How did they feck that up?
As Swansea manager, he said this, after a game at Sunderland:
“It is great for the public here at Sunderland to see us,” said manager Brendan Rodgers. “They must have been wondering what this team everyone is talking about are all about and now they have seen. We were wonderful."
Swansea lost 2-0.

In fairness you've got City one two games in hand there. It'd be much fairer to show the table with City in second on 77 points. Not quite such a huge fail then.
Brendan's a weirdo. Can no one have a word with him?
All jokes aside - I sometimes feel embarrassed on his behalf. Surely you can't go around talking nonsense all the time like he does?

"A cone is but a cone only if you want it to be a cone. let your imagination turn it into something else"
"Look at that cone, today YOU are tackling Ronaldo and Pelè at the same time. What do you mean? Just one cone? Use your imagination! The cone is BOTH Ronaldo and Pelè! You're making history today, son."
When faced with that first remark I would be SO tempted to point out that no matter what the 3 people whose names were listed did in the following months, nothing would change the fact of their being in the envelope or not.
Ah. Beaten to it. Lol
Ok I've just started watching Being Liverpool and it already produces within the first 40 seconds 
"The thing to remember before we start this campaign is one thing. We can only trust ourselves. No one else.....you can trust the supporters...because they're the best. And you can trust your family at home. And that three group is why we are here and why we're doing it"

I thought you were joking with that quote and decided to check it out for myself.Ok I've just started watching Being Liverpool and it already produces within the first 40 seconds

But managers like LVG Mourinho and Co. Can get away with it a bit more as they have been successful.

We're not one to talk about fecking up table leads...
Don't agree with Sakho over Koscielny but he's ahead of Mertesacker for me. I'd have Coutinho over Ozil too for this season. I'd say if Sturridge was in the form he was in last year then he'd be ahead of Giroud, but due to his form and injuries I'd pick Giroud.
Maybe that's why Balotelli has scored 1 goal in 13 premier league games, he heard Brendan Rodgers speak.
Sure we can. Especially when you consider that this was liverpool's only shot in probably a decade

Ahh, my favourite quote of his. Brilliant.
I wanted to see this legendary arrogance of his, another poster mentioned it's probably the language barrier that has prevented it, I hope his English improves so I can see it for myself.
One day, someone will go "There goes Brendon Rodgers. I must remember to thank him."
"Every player I see as my own son. You know I want to do the very best for them I possible can. I want to push them in their lives so they can do it for their children"
Him and Borini hugging and laughing when he arrived from Roma...a year later he's completely frozen out of the first team squad.
He just had some altercation with some youth player but I think it's actually Raheem Sterling "You say steady to me again you'll be on the first plane back"
Edit - Yeah it was 17 year old Sterling. Pretty funny considering what's happening now.

he's always said this like, constantly throughout his life to random people in random situations? did he actually try it himself to test the theory?
I done that when he signed Southampton and Mario
You say that as if winning 7 league titles, 7 domestic cups, a Champions League, a UEFA Cup, and two Super Cups, with 4 different clubs, as well as finishing 3rd in the World Cup, doesn't give someone a right to arrogance in their ability as a football manager. Or at least gives them equal right as a bloke who's only piece of silverware is winning the fecking Championship play-offs.
I wasn't convinced by Van Gaal to be honest but once I read that he won 2 super cups I knew he was legit.
Van Gaal is the bomb to be fair.
I want a Rodgers/Sherwood death match. Bullshit to the death.
My apologies for just listing everything in his honours list. Next time I'll make sure I remember to consider which silverware Eboue considers worthy of mention when talking about what someone's won.
The way he set up his side to neutralize American Jovan Kirovski in the UEFA Cup final was a masterclass that football historians have drooled over for years. Legend has it that a young Mourinho had the team sheet from that match enlarged and hung on his bedroom wall as a reminder of the glory he aspired to. When you see a manager win not one but two super cups (he also made Xavier Aguado look like the never capped Zaragoza centre back he was), you just have to stand back in awe and accept that he has earned the right to say ridiculous nonsense. Let's see Brendan Rodgers defeat a relegated Portsmouth or Wigan in a glorified friendly before he dares speak again.
It was just a funny line. Van Gaal obviously has a great track record, which makes it hilarious when you ramp up with some impressive accomplishments and end on supercup wins.
Phrasing! Are we not doing "phrasing" anymore?
I literally copied them down as they appeared. I wasn't aware our posts were being graded.
I wasn't aware pointing out something I found funny constituted grading.
Wow
Just googled this before I replied because part of me thought it might not be legit.Nope, he said it all right.
And there I was thinking you were evaluating my phrasing.
It's an archer joke Alex. Joke.
LANAAAAAAA
I can't confirm the rumors but Van Gaal invented Manga
You could probably get a damn fine university dissertation out of analysing that quote, there are so many layers to it.
This.
Flanagans rejected a new contract as well
I must say I'm loving their approach to contracts recently - Gerrard is leaving them after not having his renewal dealt with properly, Sterling's talks have become a national debate, their future captain Henderson has rejected an offer from them, and now Flanagan. Whilst I'm sure the last three will renew at some stage, it's entertaining all the same
sick reference, bro your references are out of control, everyone knows that
