Some classic Brenda quotes:
1.Look at Tottenham if you spend 100 Million you expect to be challenging for the league
2. Judge me after 3 years (said back in 2012)
3. My biggest mentor is myself because I've had to study, so that's been my biggest influence
4. I always say a squad is like a good meal - I'm not a great cook, but a good meal takes a wee bit of time
5. I believe a young player will run through a barbed wire fence for you. An older player looks for a hole in the fence, he'll try and get his way through it some way, but the young player will fight for you
6. When you've got the ball 65-70% of the time, it's a football death for the other team. We're not at that stage yet, but that's what we will get to. It's death by football. You just suck the life out of them."
Liverpool 0-0 Hull - (66% possession for Liverpool)
Newcastle 1-0 Liverpool - (65% possession for Liverpool)
Liverpool 0-1 Aston Villa - (75% possession for Liverpool)
7. We play with 11 men, other teams play with 10 men and a goalkeeper (Mignolets distribution?)
8. We won't do a Tottenham

3 and 4 are my favourites, straight from David Brent's school of management. How sad has it become we're openly mocking the Liverpool manager due to how much of a joke he is?
26 May 2015 18:43:31
Priceless, Marco! How any fan would want this individual with as many holes in his personality as a slice of Swiss cheese, as a leader of any establishment is beyond belief.

"I can categorically tell you that Mario balotelli will not be signing for Liverpool" should be on the list

I think its pretty pathetic really. He is after all still the manager.
26 May 2015 21:07:51
Was our manager, IMO and it is not an insult to say that a man who makes such an embarassment of himself with said quotes, is an embarassment. It is fact that can be supported by irefutable evidence.

what about we were outstanding today against west brom 0-0
26 May 2015 21:37:05
Best not criticise him then for another week. The guys a joke who did a good interview and got the job. He has winged it for too long.
26 May 2015 21:44:36
Going to be funny if he stays in his job :)
26 May 2015 22:17:48
Marco, i agree entirely that should not have got the job. So who gets the blame for that? certainly not Rodgers. Personally i don't feel the need to make snide digs at Liverpool players or managers. I would expect that from other fans of other clubs. let's just wait to see what Fsg do before making prats of ourselves!
26 May 2015 22:37:43
It is fact what he has said. I hate these people who you can not trust in life so why would I want one managing the club I love.

Sigh. Better to Remain Silent and Be Thought a Fool than to Speak and Remove All Doubt
"Defending is not hard to coach. It's very easy to set a team up to defend."
My personal favourite from his time at Swansea:
“It is great for the public here at Sunderland to see us,†said manager Brendan Rodgers. “They must have been wondering what this team everyone is talking about are all about and now they have seen"
Swansea lost 2-0 in that game.
"My biggest mentor is myself because I've had to study, so that's been my biggest influence."
This one got me, because one of my favourite ever quotes is this from Hunter S Thompson: "He that is taught only by himself has a fool for a master."
Seems apt at this junction.

Defense is not hard to coach. So how com he hasn't fixed our defense in three years and over 50m spent on defenders? Oh, I know. " our defensive woes are uncoachable", right? If I was a comedian, this dude will be providing with material for years. Cmac, your post was priceless however, BR has never come across the first quote you put up (by Abe Lincoln, if I'm not mistaken) because if he had and had he heeded that advice, he would not make the disgusting comments he makes.
