Klopp or koemen would be a worry.

Absolutely spot on. Also he loves quality restaurants, good food and fine wine. Won´t find any of those living in Formby.

Fear not. The two Merseyside clubs hire average managers. Monk nailed on to be the next Liverpool manager.

He's also in the papers today insisting Jack Grealish is worth £60m

All depends on what country he declares for.

From a few years ago but still makes me laugh

"I am pretty confident that there is a group of people that don’t want me to be here as manager. In all competitions this season we have lost less games than Manchester City, Chelsea and Arsenal.

“The hysteria around ourselves is interesting to note. Myself and the players stay very calm and work very hard, and they got their rewards.”

Us. The hysteria surrounding US you pathetic £#%&!er.

There has been a frenzy, there is no doubt about it, to get me out of here,’ said Rodgers. ‘There is no question about that. Whether that’s a Liverpool hysteria or big club hysteria I am not so sure. The scrutiny here is obviously greater, for me, than any club.

‘But it is a huge club. As a manager you know that and deal with it. It’s not about proving people wrong. I think I’ve shown in the early stages of my management — without being arrogant — that with a talented group of players I can compete at the top end.
‘There are very short memories in football. The team was eighth when I got here. We built a team to excite people throughout European football that should have won the league.

"I know how to manage top players. If you give me the tools, I’ll do the work.”

If there is any frenzy to get rid, it's amongst (at least) a large minority of their fans. He's not going to come out and say that though is he? .....and therein lies part of their problem.

You missed off the last sentence Scar!!! Maybe the Mail missed it, but the Graun used it:

"I know how to manage top players. If you give me the tools, I’ll do the work.”

Whoa. Some neck on him saying that.
Is he not choosing the signings?

What's he complaining about, he's got a bunch of complete tools already.

The bloke is on the verge of lunacy.

:rattled:

There are times when you wonder if Stephen King’s novel ‘The Shining’ was inspired by an Anfield trip.

A caretaker is handed the keys to a grand institute and succumbs to neurosis and paranoia after seeing ghosts in every corridor. It looks like the timeline of the last five Liverpool managers.

Hopefully he'll 'correct' the dressing room before he's shoved.

good win fir em over villa

keeps him lingering for another week

That cup contains a sample of Brent£#%&! (C). He's busy running a competition in Liverpool to find a lucky lady to bear the next son of God.
