That is genuinely the equivalent of "I know you are, you said you are...". You full fucking retard.
Only in this case, on behalf of someone else, over the internet. So 200% full fucking retard.
Hasnt taken you long to get back to rattling cages Grjt. Lol.
Go sniff your ma.
The bloke's gone Oncey....in the end I admit to being a bit relieved, although nervous about who we appoint next. I even understood most of the vitriol from others when it wasnt clear whether he was going to be pushed out....there was significant frustration building and I get that (although I never understood the "hope we lose" brigade). But hes a former Liverpool manager who did his best, which wasnt good enough as it turns out, but not through lack of trying. Whats the point of fucking laying into him now (like he gives a fuck what an internet forum is saying, but the point remains). He gave us one great season which I'm grateful for, but it didnt work out. There's no need for everyone to go all fucking Chelsea.
300%
I'm sure you do - you're a very clever little boy, and mummy is very proud. Now run along and let the big boys talk about football.
I'm not sure Ross - aren't we overlooking the simple fact that he wasn't tactically astute enough, and under his watch didn't buy enough good players? All the idiosyncratic man-management touches and solid training ground drills in the world aren't going to overcome that.
Anyone who says 'run along' in an argument is a bell.

Brendan Rodgers plans to take a short break before returning to management after Liverpool sacking
Former Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers intends to take a short break from football before returning to management.
The Northern Irishman has been left devastated by the decision to end his three-and-a-half year Anfield reign following Sunday’s 1-1 draw with Everton at Goodison.
Having been backed by owners Fenway Sports Group in the summer, the 42-year-old expected to be given more time to transform the Reds’ fortunes this season as he looked to gel a squad containing seven new signings.
He had also lost captain Jordan Henderson with a broken foot, while Christian Benteke and Roberto Firmino had joined the England international on the injury list.
Liverpool had only won one of their previous nine matches inside 90 minutes but were six games unbeaten following last month’s defeat at Old Trafford and just three points off a Champions League spot.
After taking a holiday, Rodgers will weigh up his options but he’s keen to accept a new challenge whether that’s in the Premier League or abroad.
Rodgers, who was the second longest serving manager in the top flight, spoke recently about his desire to “get to 1,000 games” in management and that he would probably have “another five or six jobs” over “20 odd years” in order to reach that milestone.

It’s the second time Rodgers has been sacked during a managerial career which began at Watford in 2008 following spells in youth development at Reading and Chelsea.
He took over at Reading in June 2009 but just six months later he was dismissed with the Royals one place above the relegation zone in the Championship.
“For the first time in my life I felt I had failed,” he recalled in 2014. I probably read the script wrong thinking I had three years and instead I had 20 games. I either disappear and become an academy director, where I’d been for 14 years, or I show character and perseverance and go again.”
In July 2010 Swansea City chairman Huw Jenkins came knocking. Rodgers’ impact in south Wales was instant as he earned promotion to the Premier League via the play-offs and then led them to a creditable 11th placed finish.
During his time at Liverpool he made a point of contacting out-of-work bosses and inviting them to Melwood. He often spoke about how a fear of failure was driving him on.
Being shown the door will hurt but in time there will surely be a sense of relief considering the acute pressure and scrutiny he was under. Rodgers’ ongoing battle to win over his doubters and prove his methods can deliver success at the highest level will continue elsewhere. He won’t be without a club for long.

Depends on how Klopp is doing.
Some smegs on here might want to lose that one.
That would cause a slide back to old look Rodgers and possibly a return to the wife.
What you're describing is 99% of managers.
I just found it difficult to take him seriously. I'd imagine it was the same for the squad
i hope he does well wherever he goes, as i did with Suarez. Don't feel any hatred for the lad - he just wasn't good enough for this job unfortunately.
In a piss easy group... It is how he does in the actual tournaments is what counts.. So far he has been turd and by rights he should of lost his job at the last tournament... Mcbitey did him a favour and took the media attention away from him...
The is a good reason why the FA are refusing a new deal..
If Rodgers takes a break.. I can see his next job being the England Manager.. I really can... I might actually enjoy watching England again if he can get then playing like he did us a few years back...
We have worked extremelly hard as a football club to be laughing stock so we should be able to joke about it as Well!!
Why would you enjoy watching any side managed by a chancer?
He won't have the pressures of club football.. no transfers to get wrong and he will be able to develop youth...
He will also have a set quota of players that he will be able to get his philosophies working and gel... It could work well for him...
