Big Peps is cacking the envelopes already

In an eve of season team talk Rodgers uses a psychological ploy involving three envelopes in an attempt to motivate his players, saying in the envelopes are the names of three players who will let the side down this season.

Reina, who has endured a mixed start to the season, insists he doesn't fear being one of those names.

"I never feared being in the envelope. No one can ever put my name in an envelope because of a lack of attitude or commitment"

"It was a motivational speech designed to make sure we were focused and tuned in all year," Reina told Spanish radio station Onda Cero.

"I never feared being in the envelope. No one can ever put my name in an envelope because of a lack of attitude or commitment.

"It's the first time I have seen a manager do that and, personally, I liked it. It stands out.

"It was a speech designed to motivate."

FFS.

If the players aren't motivated why aren't they moved on FFS?

Liverpool are giving up many of the same chances Swansea did last season, )playing out from the back, so unless their players are no better than Swansea's it must be down to the great one's methods.

it couldn't be more vain unless he insisted his wife get a tattoo of his face on her chest.

Then Rodgers gets sacked:

"The envelope thing was disrespectful and confusing. The players didn't like it."

Wasn't it Jesus who started this motivational envelope ploy?.......one of you will betray me, one of you will deny me three times.........

Didn't really work out for him though tbcrucified

it was a gift, a gift from my greatest supporter. A humble man with incredible talents, now I want to introduce you to him. look over there! now look back at me, it was me after all. Isn't he handsome? his name is brendan and he talks with a scottish accent dispite not being from there.

confused? I knew you would be, that's why I wrote your name in an envelope before you called over.

Gerrard's face.

Looks proper "wtf are you on about?"

Also how fat is Rodgers and look at his tiny stubby finger when he points it.

I'm not just saying it because its bantz or because its Liverpool.....that is genuinely £#%&!ing terrible from Rodgers. He comes across as the kind of guy who comes in to your work for an induction and takes it really seriously. £#%&!ing Keith Lard style. It's so poorly delivered and unecessary for the first game of the season. Using negative reinforcement and shallow scare tactics before they've even kicked. And given the upcoming result, he should've bought more envelopes. £#%&!, there'd be a 'we attempted delivery' Royal Mail after that shower of shit performance at WBA.

The Brent similarities really are uncanny. This @#%&! has the potential to surpass KKK and fat Rafa in terms of sheer £#%&!wittedness. I hope he lasts long enough for us to witness his public mental breakdown.

Props for Brenton's team talk as the season progresses

And I'm sure the envelopes he used were Wernham Hoggs' finest.
