Cronky Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 I can't say I like the way Rodgers often uses possession in a negative way, as a way of preventing the opposition from playing rather than creating chances for his own side. If that idea catches on, we're in for some deadly dull football matches. There's also a danger in going too much by statistics. While it may be true that the team who dominates possession may have a greater statistical chance of winning, if that team is actually spending half the time prodding the ball between the midfield and the back four, then that advantage is reduced. I'm not sure that the Liverpool fans or the Liverpool players are going to be too happy if Rodgers leads them down the same path. Their expectations and ambitions are different from Swansea's.

aussiemag Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Remember Joe Cole is still on Liverpool's books as well. If he gets the chance he should stay at Lille. Unfortunately, I can see him taking the easy route and ending up at West Ham or QPR. Do you think they will stump up his 80 000 a week wage, if not hell still be a liverpool player.

Dan Gleebals Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 I think he is in for a tough time there. He is surely not going to get that much cash as a result of Dalglish spunking all that cash on shite. Add the fact the owners clearly think they are top 4 potential, I cannot really see how this is going to work. Not that I give a fook. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomson Mouse Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 Rodgers plays a bit like the 70s and 80s Liverpool played - possession football. I remember countless times watching the games on ITV on a Sunday and moaning about them passing the ball bak to the keeper. They were good going forward, but in general were boring to watch. When you contrast that with Manure and SAF (as much as I despise them), in general, the play good attacking football. If anyone thought that the Swansealona stuff in the press was bad last year, just watch what happens this year it'll be unbearable if the first fe results go his way.
