This is what Gerrard wrote in his book regarding Brendan Rodgers' half-time team-talk" after he slipped and let a crucial goal in:
"I had been straining the whole half to make something happen, so had Luis. Chelsea just kept blunting us. And then I’d slipped. The dressing room was hushed."
“Look," Brendan said, imploring the other players, “if anyone deserves to be bailed out it’s him." His finger pointed at me. “Your captain needs you to all pay him back."
"The amount of times he’s pulled this club out of a mess and changed impossible situations and got players out of trouble are the stuff of legend."
"Now it’s time you repay him. You’ve got forty-five minutes to do it." Brendan looked at me. “Stevie, forget it," he said. “It happens. Let’s all go out and win this game. We can do it."

A lot has been said about Rodgers in the last couple weeks. I wanted him out. Most wanted him out. None really hated him the way we hated the reign of Hodgson's era but this is CLASS.
We've made fun of things he's said in the past, comments that have been laughable but hats off to Rodgers. This is just class.

I think his ex wife and the former partner of his new tart may disagree.

I am pretty sure he did change things tactically in that game.
We didn't have many options in truth.
Our attacking subs were Alberto, Aspas and Sturridge who wasn't fit. He brought two of those three on.
There wasn't much else he could do.
Ultimately we didn't have the squad to change games if plan A didn't work (luckily Plan A did work a lot, hence why we won 16 out of 19).

Rodgers ain't no oil painting himself to be fair. Apart from the 20ft one above his bed
