I have my opinion of this fraud. And yes I'm going to keep on doing it every time he gets humiliated by a team like Hull, every time he plays Cann right back, every time he puts Laser and Allen on the pitch, every time he wears that big watch..
You get the message. I'm sure Big Watch Bodge will be gone soon and you'll see me stop. Never have I despised a manager in charge of Liverpool as this deluded fool. Tactical genius is what he describes himself as.
And I and many will keep calling you out as the boring, boring fool that you are. You get the message. I'm sure Big Watch Bodge will be gone soon and you'll see me stop. Never have I despised a manager in charge of Liverpool as this deluded fool. Tactical genius is what he describes himself as.
I am always up for a debate about stuff and always happy to be wrong sometimes and correct other times.
But you just come across as an obsessive loon.
Ever considered why DS and others don't get the same responses as you do?

Why are you complaining about someone calling you a w
ker when you're saying stuff like this? If you can give it then you can take it... Surely Rafa taught you that during your late nights together while campaigning to get him back?

To jump away from this a little (please?)
Where does everyone think we would have finished this season if we had Mourinho in charge?
Same players, I reckon nailed on top 4.
Maybe, but I don't think it would have been much better. When your strikers score less than a defense there's not much you can do. Balo has had quite a lot of chances and almost got none of them, plus he tends to mess up in defense too when just standing still. You could argue we haven't tried two up front yet, but the defense has struggled in a back 4 and so we'd just have let in more goals.Where does everyone think we would have finished this season if we had Mourinho in charge?

Not to mention he's one of the more special managers out there. Add SAF and a few others and are we going to be able to get someone like them to us anyway?

Do we all agree now Raja was right a year ago or more and Rogers was winging it as a lucky manager ?
I am running out of patience with BR, certainly last year was a blip due to LS and a fit DS, that not happening this year is not BR's fault but he hasn't made the most of what he has, and he talks some nonsense sometimes.Saying a manager is poor and will be fired within X years is not a statement of genius, it is a pretty safe bet. That said RT says a lot of reasonable stuff, unfortunately the occasional arrogant statement of opinion as fact gets a bit weary, as does the agenda against the manager to the extent you want your team to get badly beaten. I suppose that's "passion".
This season cannot end soon enough.
I had some vague romantic notion that 3 years ago Mourinho could be persuaded to come and revive the club, Fergie style.
I'd guess he would take one look at the budget and say 'no thanks'
He's a quality operator who delivers results consistently and I think he would succeed anywhere.
Winning the league is never boring. Although it's been that long I can't remember really

Does he even consider he has a responsibility?
Brendan Rodgers: Liverpool boss says squad playing for futures
Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers says everyone at Anfield is "playing for his future" as he admitted striker Mario Balotelli is "struggling".
The Reds slumped to defeat at Hull on Tuesday, a third loss in five league games, and the Italy forward left the field with a foot injury on 65 minutes.
Balotelli was heckled by home fans as he made just 22 touches in the match.
"I think it's clear over the course of the season, not just in this game, that he's struggling," said Rodgers, 42.
"I spoke to the players at the end and I told them that we have an obligation to fight right to the end of the season," he added.
"It's fair to say every single player here is playing for his future."
Brendan's signings...
Since becoming Liverpool manager in June 2012 Brendan Rodgers has bought or loaned a total of 24 players at Liverpool
Rodgers, who rested captain Steven Gerrard, defended Balotelli, stating his £16m summer signing is "doing his best" but conceded his team struggled to threaten at the KC Stadium.
The Reds have failed to qualify for the Champions League following each season they have finished runners-up in the Premier League - and sitting seven points adrift of fourth place with four games left, that pattern looks likely to continue.
"We wanted to be in that top four but it was always going to be difficult for us with the way our season mapped itself out," said Rodgers. "But we are looking to get momentum to take us through to next season.
"The players put great energy into the game and they worked very hard but their struggles tonight were the same as they have been for a great part of the season in terms of creativity and scoring goals."

Thanks. Anything else ok for future use? Troll? Closet UTD fan? Turd?
Troll, no not at all, just call it as I see it, he's a fraud.
Turd, yep that's what the leader Bodge wanted in Lovren for 20 million.

Can't argue with any of that. It is PR-conscious as almost everything that's said by managers and players is nowadays but its not hard to read between the lines. He didn't defend Balotelli at all.Brendan Rodgers: Liverpool boss says squad playing for futures

What I got from that was Balotelli making just 22 touches in the match. And you can add in him being completely static and so playing them onside for their goal. This is the same Balo that you claim is a scapegoat for BR and think could do well a few days ago.Brendan Rodgers: Liverpool boss says squad playing for futures
