You're only as good as your strikers.
The end.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
We sold a 30 goal striker and the other 30 goal striker has been injured all season. We've played loads more games than last season, plus there's nothing to play for.
Please don't get rid of him
We have pretty much crossed the line now from big club (as in challenging for all trophies) like we used to, to being an academy club. The sooner the OP wakes up to that fact the better.
We were close to going out of business at one point and we needed a stable ownership which we got, but they won't and never will spend enough to get the top players in. We shop from the second tier now.
I was very angry with our owners for not putting the money in while the FFP rules were toothless but that ship has sailed.
We have to work on building revenues like Arsenal did and amend our transfer strategy to waste less money as we did last summer.
Where we are at is probably where we are going to stay for a few years IMO.
anyone else ever fart in the car then hit the 'childproof' locks on the windows and doors to make sure everyone really enjoys it?
me neither
We should have invested more wisely having qualified for CL and dont say they tried.
----------------
Take it you missed us trying to sign Sanchez all summer then?
Everybody..., let's wait to see Brendan's interview. I'll happily withdraw my Brendan out comment (although will still be seething at how poor we played again) if he admits the team were poor, rather than the "team was excellent, I thought we were excellent, I thought Gerrard was an inspiration, I thought Ibe showed his world class talent, all we needed was a wee bit of luck" bull we're expected to swallow each week..

4 years... Dont waste your time the regular posters will resort to slagging you off. Imagine if we have Europa next season! We will be screwed with our squad. The moment any of our young players start to shine they will be sold.. So thats hardly a positive. We should have invested more wisely having qualified for CL and dont say they tried. They didnt as they offer poor wages. Llalana had one good season and we paid €25 million for him. Similarly Lovren. Our scouting seems to be a problem... Why do we only seem to buy from the prem? Does Rodgers not know european football or south american football etc. There are better players out there surely.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The clubs recruitment process and the incentivised wage structure are concerns I share.
Time after time we have identified targets but have lost out to other clubs. I understand the reasons, but I also wonder if the owners could have done more.
I don't make the connection that for this reason the manager should be sacked. He has to take his share, even the bulk of the criticism for the players we sign. However, for the ones that don't the club has to have a look at why, and the answer to this isn't the manager.
Isn't it shocking that no-one listens to a user who doesn't even have a user name?
Xavi....if they really wanted Sanchez they would have got him. The investment would have paid off im sure. Why wasnt it included in Suarez deal?
Brenda clearly doesn't agree with you:
=================================
"I thought the players were outstanding, their courage and play on the ball. Across the team there were some outstanding performances."
=================================
Apparently they are always 'outstanding'...
Brendan has made plenty of mistakes this year and needs a good summer and pre season with a settled squad, he deserves that chance, he's been a manager for 6 years ffs.
Look at who he is trying to compete with LVG Wenger Jose and Arsene 4 hugely experienced managers with better squads and budgets and its we are only three positive result swings from being right in the mix for a CL spot.
A Europa campaign won't do us any harm look at how unprepared we were to deal with the cl this season.
I always find it funny when people say that there is no point in qualifying for the Europa cause itsca drain on the squad but go mental when we miss out on cl football cause that won't drain the squad at all
Constructive criticism is always good, ranting that the manager should be simply fired and clear out half the squad is just pathetic and doesn't help in any way.
Brendan needs to take the lessons learned from transfers to rotation into next season, if by Xmas we are still performing like we are now then serious questions need to be asked but he deserves until then, look at the runs he's out together in the league at different times and a huge improvement in the domestic cups, it's been a poor season overall and we are all frustrated but people need to look at the bigger picture and accecpt we are not ready to be a serious challenger at the top of the league or in the cl right now.

Didn't we offer him more money? And we tried to get him as part of the suarez deal he wanted Arsenal and they got him.

It's not our fault if Sanchez didn't want to come to us though. We supposedly offered more money but for whatever reason, be it the location, manager, team etc, Sanchez preferred Arsenal. Not much the club can do if a player doesn't want to join you

Based on last season Rodgers deserves another season. He managed to get the best out of Suarez so the man does have his positives. Guess we'll all have to get used to being also rans for a few years.
Does anybody else just want this season to be over with?
We are a team in transition
yep from premier league to championship in two seasons
