Interesting times ahead..
With Rodgers likely (Hopefully) to use his adaption of a 1-4-3-3 you could see the following all really flourishing
Reina..
Will love a higher line that he can be behind and start a lot of moves and be a "sweeper keeper"
Agger..
Ball playing centre back will adore it.
Skrtel..
Will give it simple.
Johnson..
Getting forward, comfortable with the ball..
Lucas..
The man in front of the back 4, good touch, not scared under pressure, will tick the play along.
Henderson..
Can pass a lovely ball, all energy.
Gerrard..
Can do anything.. Will love a free type role under Rodgers.
Suarez...
As Gerrard..
Carroll..
I think he will flourish, he has shown he has good feet towards the end of the season, is a far better player than Danny Graham, if Rodgers can get him the service he will be a big player next year.
Coates..
Will improve and get more time I think..
Then the jury is out for me on.. Not that I think these will immediately move on but will have their work cut out to develop into his style.
Enrique..
Is a very good defender, but on the ball can dwell on it at times, goes down blind tunnels.. Will have to improve that side of his game.
Adam..
Who knows if he will get a tune out of him.
Downing..
Same, does he fit the type of winger Rodgers likes? Quick, technically sound? Will get a chance next season but has to improve and quick.
Shelvey..
Potential is there, thus could be a key time under Rodgers.. Will either cone good and quick or be shipped on next summer.
In trouble I think are..
Kuyt..
Not quick enough to play wide under Ted.. Will want assurances of first team chances or will want out which I don't see him getting.
Maxi..
Technically great.. But quick enough?
Spearing..
Think his time could be up.
Carra..
Anyone who reads my posts knows the respect I have for the man but on paper he doesn't seem to suit Ted's way of playing. Will probably be around next season.. Depends if he sees a future as a coach for him.
Then there is the futures of Cole and Aquilani.. On paper they would be Rodgers types of players.. Will they get a chance?
How will some of the promising youngsters develop.. Suso, Sterling, Adjordan and Texieria all seemingly
would fit in..
The way I see it right now with what we have Rodgers may look at this..
Reina
Johnson Agger Skrtel Enrique
Lucas
Henderson
Gerrard
New* Suarez
Carroll
Subs:
Doni
Kelly
Coates
New man
Downing
New man
New man
I think he may look to bring in a couple of wide men, a back up for Carroll and Lucas and possibly a replacement for Carra.
If he can get us playing how Swansea did and adds a real classy wide man we will be an improvent without really shaking things up to much.
First impressions.
