Rodgers to 'pool and maybe Guardiola to Chelsea; the future-trains are indeed leaving the station, and we'll keep going with our coal-driven really old-school one...
you give it large with all that and then suggest AVB????One year wonder with Porto, alienated plenty at Chelsea in just over 6 months....AVB???
Plenty of talk that FSG wanted Martinez but Martinez didn't want to work under a DoF but Rodgers didn't mind. If that's the case I think we can rule out Martinez as the next Spurs manager.

Goal.com understands Liverpool’s groundbreaking plan is to employ one executive to oversee statistics, another whose role will be to conduct negotiations and a third ‘football man’ with contacts within the game.
is it the show ponies, or the managers who couldnt get the best out of multiple Premier League winners, and Champions League winners:-k
The official statement on RAWK:
Brendan Rodgers is the new manager of Liverpool.
We at RAWK have always firmly believed that one of the strengths of being a Liverpool supporter is that we support the manager. We welcome him to our club and sincerely hope he understands the culture and history and requirements of one being manager at Liverpool Football Club, one of the major jobs in the world of football.
There may be some fans on here who did not wish for his appointment, perhaps preferring any number of other candidates. Let us make one thing clear: We support our manager. Full stop. If any of you are unable to do that, you will find yourselves looking for another fansite to post on. Liverpool supporters are meant to do things the right way and make no mistake, we will remove persistent whingers, moaners, nostalgists and petty posters from this site without a second thought.
Welcome Brendan, you've a bloody big pair of boots to fill. Good luck and welcome and all the best from us at RAWK :wave

There wouldn't be anyone left in this place if that was the rule.
This is exactly what Rodgers needed to do at this stage of his career. Prove himself with a mid-table team before joining us in a couple of seasons time![]()
Now, Chelsea's situation under Villas-Boas is completely deceiving. Villas-Boas had a better record in the league than Roberto Di Matteo did, and there's stats out there to prove it. All of the negativity around Villas-Boas is fan propaganda from Chelsea fans who were completely unwilling to have a transition season. Villas-Boas was in the midst of reforming the team and employing the kind of football Abramovich wanted, but he was: 1. Completely undermined by the prima-donnas in the dressing room, and 2. Was unable to acquire players he needed to enforce his tactics in the right way (Hulk and Moutinho being two of them, and a new centre-back); this meant the likes of John Terry had to play a high-line (as Chelsea didn't have a suitable replacement) and Terry couldn't do it, which meant Chelsea conceded a lot of goals; then with Kalou and company not delivering, and a mis-firing Torres, who he was forced to keep, Villas-Boas couldn't recreate the success of the tactics he used at Porto. If he'd had another season, I'm sure he'd have rejuvenated Chelsea, even if they didn't win the Champions League or FA Cup. I also think they'd have finished in a Champions League spot, too.
Gerard and Rooney aside none of the stars in the 3 sides to win the cl in recent times were English.
