Rodgers has done it before and no doubt he'll do it again. He's the first to praise the players and he's also the first to tell them they were poor.

Again, though, they were inarguably poor in that last eleven minutes or so, but so were his substitutions (Coutinho and Moses while a fit Agger was available), which certainly didn't indicate a mindset of "shutting up shop." A mea culpa would have been well-timed on this occasion. Just demonstrates a bit of a cloth ear in terms of how he thinks he's perceived, and it can take something like this trickle of doubt to turn into an avalanche, especially if Liverpool start slowly next season.
 
Rodgers complete lack of defensive coaching ability and tactical naivety will mean there's a fair possibility he'll never win anything major at Liverpool. We've seen it all before with Keegan. Bum-rush football that fails to deliver the big prizes.

Instead of learning from mistakes and progressing, Liverpool have become worse defensively as the season has worn on, if anything. 'Crystanbul' had been on the cards for a few weeks, but a mixture of poor refereeing and fortune prevented it.

Still, it's funnier to blame Gerrard. So carry on.
 
Nice to see Rodgers sticking to his guns and signing more attacking players.

Yes. It's not as if we've just won eleven on the trot or anything.
 
Didn't know Rodgers was suddenly shite for dropping a few points. Tough crowd.

7th to 2nd is still outrageously good management. Definitely has a challenge to keep it up next year though, I admit.
 
He does seem to enjoy constantly reminding us of his limited resources when compared to other clubs.
 
Someone said to me that if Liverpool had been in the Champions League this year they wouldn't have complied with the FFP regulations either. Is this true? I know nothing about it.
 
Maybe Brenton is indicating he needs a pay rise before he can be bothered to organise/instruct the defence.
 
Cos it comes across as much better than moaning and playing the poor man card.
The poor man card was indeed a wanky point for him to raise, but congratulating City now would sound more like desperate mind games than anything else. It's a formality, but you don't congratulate someone until it's won.

Yeah fair enough, don't congraulate Pellegrini but just say something along the lines of its out of our hands, but we'll go into the Newcastle game looking to win and see what happens. Basically anything other than "then we've finished second to the highest wage bill in sport"
 
Cheer up Brendon Rodgers,
Though it was a farce
You were gonna win it then
Gerrard fell on his arse

Er, he did say that.
