Paid Members PunkStep Posted February 26, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted February 26, 2019 (edited) I think it's potentially a very good match. The Ulster David Brent is clearly a talented manager and Leicester seems the right level for him. He's too good for the SPL that's for sure. Would much rather see somebody attack minded like him back in the Premier League than the likes of Big Sam (who naturally declared interest in the role this week). I think James Maddison could really benefit from having a manager like Rodgers. Edited February 26, 2019 by PunkStep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, he's spent his time in Scotland "competing" mostly with sides against which he enjoys a gap that is wider than that between Celtic and PSG. Even the financial gap between Celtic and Rangers is double at the very least apparently. His predecessor was a bit of a numpty and even he managed to win a league title and a double in the two years he was there. It'll be interesting to see how he fares against sides on a similar financial footing, against managers who are equally talented, because whenever he did that at Celtic in Europe he didn't really do so well. You're right though, Leicester is his level, despite there being chat up in Scotland that he was good enough for the Arsenal job.

Porkchopcash Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 I expect Palace to get minimum of a point tonight. A tough team to beat at home. Fingers crossed the neutrals favourites win against Watford. Although the may struggle with Bobby on the injured list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Danger Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 (edited) Leicester is a great fit for him. Great group of youngsters for him to spin bullshit to and the expectations aren't high. I agree he is a talented manager but the Champions League run at Liverpool (out at the group stages) was pathetic and he never got his mojo back after Chelsea and Palace put the kibosh on our league challenge.

StrongStyle Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Leicester have clearly invested in Rodgers to try to recapture European football again. The irony is that if he's successful in delivering that, it's probably what will get him sacked as he has proven time and time again at Liverpool and Celtic that he could not organise a piss up in a brewery on the continental stage.

Mr_Danger Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 To be fair Leicester won't be arsed about piss poor Europa performances as the very act of qualification will be a great achievement for them. I think they'll be happy with solid league showings and playing in a more attractive fashion that will get them some big transfer fees for the players they develop.

Paid Members PunkStep Posted February 27, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted February 27, 2019 (edited) He must be licking his lips at their squad. Their midfield and wide forwards are a fantastic group of young players- Ndidi, Maddison, Tielemans, Barnes and Gray. Oh, Kepa dropped for tonight's game.

That's my big fear tbh, that huge gap over Arsenal and Chelsea is quickly dwindling Ali needs to come back and quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members mim731 Posted February 28, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted February 28, 2019 As an Arsenal fan, I am more concerned this will motivate Spurs to be extra fired up and absolutely destroy us on Saturday. I hope I'm wrong, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Murtz Posted March 2, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted March 2, 2019 Draw in the Spurs/Arsenal game is probably the best result for United.. the top 4 race is looking very tight now. Probably the best I've seen Arsenal in a big away game for a while.. shame the strikers didn't have their shooting boots on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevieg1980 Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 As much as Iove James Milner, off the bench he is like Greg 'The Hammer' Valentine. Takes 15-20 minutes to warm up and get into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacko Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 If Liverpool don’t score within the first 20 minutes they really struggle to break teams down, they was absolutely awful today like last sunday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
