He never said a bad word about us. Always handled himself in a professional manner and had some wit about him.
mate that's like saying a bloke who is banging your wife is really nice because he is always polite when he sees you.
Rodgers may have "said the right things" but on what planet is that any sort of meaningful way to judge a manager? while he was "saying the right things," he was systematically dragging our club down farther and farther into mid-table mediocrity. Tony Barrett just wrote yesterday in an article that Rodgers tried to move for Ashley Williams over Sakho, Clint Dempsey over Sturridge, and for Ryan Bertrand!! the committee we all condemn, f**king hell, thank god they were there to stop him doing it!
Almost every step of the way he was undermining the traditions and history of the club. By throwing in the towel before the game even started at Real Madrid and in the process spitting in the faces of the traveling supporters who for years had gone without those exciting nights. Or how about when he sat on his arse the entire first half while we went down 0-5 before halftime vs. Stoke. Make a substitution, change the formation, do SOMETHING. No, he just sat and watched. Why? because the man never got that he was at a big club. You don't go to a big club and say "I want Borini, Allen, Dempsey and Sigurdsson." f**king hell.
Wow, he said the right things. Good for him. Behind the scenes though and on the pitch he was doing the exact opposite---slowly dragging us down and turning us into the next Aston Villa.
but yea, he said the right things, so who cares about that football rubbish, what matters is what he said in the press conferences.
