Sky Sports are reporting that Brendan Rodgers' review is over and that the Northern Irishman will stay on as Liverpool manager.
If true, a terrible decision from the board. Hopefully I am proven wrong.
02 Jun 2015 17:22:58
That is what I expected and feared. Truth is FSG either do not care to much about on field success or have no idea what is required to achieve it.

the news i've been dredding was hoping he would be shown the door and replaced with a quality proven manager suppose we will just have to get used to being a laughing stock and get behind out team

You're going to be sorreeeee !!

Accidentally disagreed, this seem to be the general gist of what is coming out in the media. I can't believe our owners would make such a terrible, dreadful decision for the football club.

I was sceptical of this report, but reading it, it appears quite definite, at least according to 'Sky Sources'.

Soon Liverpool supporters will have a lot in common with Newcastle ones.
The Euro qualifiers will be interesting. There are better teams than Stoke there.

The same report is with Gaurdian newspaper who tend to be fairly solid. Oh well another 6 months at least and if it doesn't improve hopefully Klopp will be bored and ready to leap into place!!

Thought the meeting was tomorrow
02 Jun 2015 18:06:02
The owners are going to feel redohio's wrath apparently.
02 Jun 2015 18:09:21
No official statement has been made yet so I`ll believe it when I see it.

Hopefully this is just early speculation and is WRONG!!!!
This whole season has been pretty poor. Taking everything into account, a change has/had to be made.
Rafa deemed not good enough by a lot of our fans yet is more than good enough to take over at Real Madrid.
Ancelotti taking a year out.
Klopp taking an indefinite break.
Maybe this has forced their hand and they are now keeping him.
However, it now looks like he is staying as manager by default. If they intended to keep him, they should have made an announcement a lot earlier to kill all speculation.
Also, if he is staying I hope there are other changes made. Dof coming in? Transfer committee scrapped? Better coaches? better no.2 revert to the style of play from last season, stick with it and base the recruitment policy around that system?
If you look at Benteke. he is not what we need, doesn't fit with the way we played last season or the successful season before, yet it is the ridiculous release clause amount that has turned them off signing him. Imagine if it was £15m-£20m instead of £32.5m. We could have had another expensive bench-warmer on the books.
On the bright side, when this season goes like the last one, they can get rid of him in January and hopefully Kloppp would make himself available by then.
{Ed002's Note - Nothing that happens with Klopp or Ancelotti would have any impact on what FSG are doing running Liverpool.}

Where is the ruthlessness? Where is the hunger for success? We've been terrible 3/4 of the season and have lost to some truly bad sides.

Why should FSG make an announcement when nothing as changed?
