Beyond that it has to be said, again, he didn't bring in players who could replicate the qualities that we lost with Suarez. That is his single biggest failure with us so far IMO. .

I'd say there's other equally troubling mistakes.

Mignolet
Millions spent on defenders without ANY improvement and arguably worse.
Persistance with Gerrard at DM despite everyone else thinking otherwise
etc etc...

arguably!!!??
 
I agree with Buddha about the defence. It wasn't much better last season, but the quality of the SAS got the attack firing properly.
 
Well, I'm gonna have a burger.
Burgers cheer me up.
Any good movies available to download?
 
In the very short term the team needs a leader. Gerrard is absolutely awful as a leader - great off the pitch, no doubt, but he acts like a fan watching the game rather than a player in it. Rodgers also has to use his option of telling players they're playing for their future - you can only do that once, but now's the time. And he has to shut up and show between now and December he can really manage. Or else.
 
so what now? do we sack rodgers or give him time considering what he helped us achieve last season? I went into this game expecting us to lose and we did, against crystal palace, i havent got a clue what i want but i havent had expectations as low as these since the owl was in charge
 
We have too many good players to be this shit. They need to pull their fingers out.

I get the feeling those on the pitch don't agree with the tactics being employed.

We need some sort of intervention from Rodgers pronto. This is beyond shite. The likes of Arsenal and United are complaining about their worst starts in decades and are both still several points ahead of us. I fear we will lose players this summer to tempting offers if things don't improve.
 
All Palace do is get players in the box and move the ball to them quickly. It's not fecking rocket science. We faff about from side to side, then backwards, then from side to side again, loiter nervously outside the area, then either lump a ball in near the keeper or try and thread it through a crowd of defenders. The deluded self-image is of a thinking team playing cleverly, but it just doesn't have any connection with the facts of the matter. All we do is basically just waste a bit of time between mistakes.


This.

Losing 6 out of twelve... if he isn't looking over his shoulder he should be... shocker.
 
Can't believe radio saying we should have spent like utd. They are shit as well. Fuck off.
 
Oh well. That was shit and to be expected. I'm not knee jerking I'm carrying a fucking pitchfork!
 
Im pretty certain a new manager could make our defence a bit less laughable if given a couple of weeks. I'm not sure if he could make our attack any more potent though (without new signings)
