Debunking 5 ridiculous media statements about Brendan Rodgers
By Damon Carter
Myth 5: He could have gotten the team out of trouble
We’ll never know and the club couldn’t wait any longer to find out. Despite saying the words in many of his interviews, Rodgers had no idea how to instil any fight or fresh ideas into performances that were just a constant mess and embarrassment throughout. Playing James Maddison out of position, along with constantly changing in-form players like Kelechi Iheanacho and Nampalys Mendy for weaker counterparts was not working.
Despite the former Liverpool boss’s cheerleaders like Martin Samuel subliminally intimating that the club was lucky to be in the presence of the supposedly great man, the club had to act now regardless. Of course, we will forever be grateful for winning the FA Cup and some European adventures. Brendan gave us some great moments, but he also gave us some horror shows and to get us this near to relegation is truly unforgivable as we all know the cost of dropping out of World football’s richest league. It’s the least the foxes fans deserve from one of the world’s best-paid managers who seemed to be desperate for the sack since last summer.
