Regular visitor but only just registered. A lot of people are stating rodgers may quit or could still be sacked after what has happened to Marsh and Pascoe. I think we need to be careful what we wish for now. I know a lot of, if not most, liverpool fans would have liked to see him gone but it seems as if the owners are sticking with him for now. Many of the so called "fan favourites" to take over have either distanced themselves from the role or have made commitments elsewhere. If there was now to be a "knee jerk" reaction then it could be a further couple steps back. I am by no means a Rodgers fan, I didn't mind him at the start and was happy for him to take over but his niavity and stubbornness has let him down and the Liverpool job does seem to be a job far too soon for him. As stated by the eds and posters, he does seem to be an able coach but a poor manager. As it stands now, who is the best manager who could replace him? We would all have emery, Klopp or Bielsa but they are are all out of our reach now. If we rush into another untried, untested and inexperienced manager then we could end up in the same place a few years down the line. I think we need to be patient and support whatever happens as we have a long hard few years ahead

Don't know what the eds think of the long term effects of this plan but they have to stick with him now and we have to hope that he stays because what manager will want to join if ahy of this has happened because they wanted to get him to resign.

I wouldn't want to join a club that dint sack you but decimate everything around you and make your job untenable.

I think it has to be planned with Rodgers because even if he wanted to stick around would you work with coaches who the club brought in, there's not a lot of trust there.

The only other thing I will say is back room staff all leave when things our succeful, numbers 2/coaches go get there own gigs as numbers ones, how many coaches did fefgie have ? So when it goes bad we can surely accept the same? This will be all.planned Rodgers will have gone with it, I just hope not to save his bacon but more of sn acceptance that they were not good enough and he underestimated how big this job was and how itd important to have as good if not better people around you.

Fingers crossed that fsg aren't snakes and nor is Brendan but that this is a proper step in the right direction.

Yeah I agree that it must have been an approach accepted by Rodgers and the owners. I don't think the owners are "snakes" so I do not believe they would have done this behind rodgers' back or to try and make him resign. I believe this is what they have concluded from their review as a positive move forward and to hopefully progress the club. Whether it is the right move we will have to wait and see, but at at least it's some form of movement and change in an area that needed change.

There are a number of options if Mr Rodgers goes.

I have often read here that FSG are ruthless in pursuit of success.
If that is the case, Rodgers is gone.

It is obvious that they don't suffer fools gladly.

If Rodgers goes, there will be a replacement.

It is interesting to note that only newspapers have speculated on the future of Rodgers.

FSG have said nothing.
