So where do we go from here? New manager or give Rodgers more time? After reading this on yesterday's game:
Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers says his players were "outstanding" against West Brom despite being held to a goalless draw at the Hawthorns.
Liverpool had 74% possession in the match and had 22 shots at goal, of which only five were on target.
"I thought they were excellent. We didn't get the win, but our overall game was outstanding, " Rodgers said.
I'm not so sure. I don't want to see a revolving door of managers, if we do replace let's get experience both league & European. Let's be honest Rodgers didn't really have either. No plan "B" when his tactic's were found out. The failure to replace Suarez with a top forward hurt. The squad needs to be rebuilt as we will be getting rid f at least 6 to 8 players that are just not good enough. Tell Sterling this is the contract on offer sign or move on, reinvest in a few top & upcoming players (not Milner) My wish list for a manager would be Klopp or De Boer give them the support, backroom staff etc, they want & go from there. I'm sure there will be a few disagreements but this is just my opinion & I'm sure quite a few.

I would hope fsg are looking at who's available first.
I would say to Rodgers thanks but no thanks and I would go all out for klopp. If we don't get him have alternatives lined up. but I'm hoping things are already going on in the background not transfers but changes high up.
For me sterling if' the right money is offered. I think he has to go for me if a big offer comes in because the situation is a disgrace.
Get better scouting staff in or someone who can spot actual talent and scar Europe for great striker.
Forget milner in midfield. Get a top class younger midfielder. My choice would be vidal but we couldn't afford him or offer him cl. I really like keidera and I wouldn't go all out to persuade cech to join.
That is what I would wish' the club to do but I fear a few players coming in that are known English players that will further regress us.
To add. If sterling leaves forget depAy. Tell Ibe to go and take his chance.

Hes a Spoofer Canadian simple as all of a sudden loosing LS is a problem he knew this at the start of the league but went and bought ballo lambert and a "world class" striker in origi (spelling) all of a sudden loosing saurez is a issue is the man for real?? We can all see sturridge (who I like) is made of glass are we been told the Spoofer didn't see this maybe the shine from his teeth blinded him but he's to go!!!!!

Vidal is 28 in May and Milner has just turned 29. You don't get much for your £30 million these days. Khedira is also 28.

only caught second half but looked liken r had good players on the pitch but either ill managed or not in their right positions (probably because we don't have players for certain roles). Mario looked lost coutinho had no one to pass to and tbh forgot sterling was on the pitch.
Think we've been figured out and lack the players to change it. All teams do is pack the box and then we can't score. Have no width and can't spread the play to create space.
Can't replace the squad as spent all our money and how do you explain selling players you bought last season. Still need a proper wide player, striker, DM and a GK which is roughly what we needed last summer

Vidal is world class. That is the difference and we would get atleast 3 years of him at his very best. He is a player capable of us really challenging at the top. Matches are won and lost in midfield and he would be the best midfielder in the league.
We need a player of his stature for us to challenge again and would be fantastic for henderson and can to learn from.
Vidal is special and if he cost 30 million. It would be money well spent. If he goes to united in the summer expect a transformed united and real title challengers.
Fabregas is 28 and would cost 30 plus million and he is nowhere near vidal level

I agree, he is a great midfielder. He won't be coming to us tho. He would not have been coming wven if we were in the CL. Khedira might have but i would guess his wages would be more than Liverpool would want to pay, setting aside his injury record. Milner, if i'm honest is a good player but he doesn't get me excited like my mistress does! I don't know! Another find in the Emre Can mould would be nice i guess. I really can't see Liverpool ever buying the really top class talent. They never have!

Agree 100% Irish Rover, but with the 70 or so million we got for Suarez we could of had 2 @ 30, instead we get Ballotelli who Rodgers said would not be joining & who lovs to shot n sight, misses or get's blocked, won't get in where it count's, Lambert (Who I don't think has been given much of a chance, (not that he's any better)bit player Borini, Knowing that Stevie G is done replace with like minded quality (e.g.Vidal,Khedira) Surely with the departure's we will have cash for wages/transfere's?
& sometimes we have to admit we made a mistake & unload players that are not Liverpool quality.
But a manager of quality who can get the best out of players is a priority.

Your correct. Plus he's could be in a team that reaches the cl final.
Milner is just again ' not needed. We need a top first teamer and he is not that plus will be on huge bucks.
The reason he wants out of city is more game time and I'm struggling to understand how he would get more gametime with us. we should be aiming for far better than milner.
26 Apr 2015 22:00:26
Trust me guys, the Spoofer is still using the same excuses to justify our poor run in the beginning of the season to justify our poor run now. I bet you next year if kept, he will still be talking about Suarez's absence, no money, not enuff tools, the tea lady didn't mix the tea right and so on, as excuses. The guy's ability to shirk responsibility and blame everyone else under the sun for his blunders is only matched by his failure on the field.

I would take Klopp.
Anyone else would be just as much of a gamble as appointing Rodgers 3 yrs ago.
I don't think Klopp is a gamble.
His record demands respect in my opinion.
If we can't get Klopp then I would want the current manager to continue.
