  • He's a British manager at a big British club, which is down on its luck and looking for a return to relevance. It's not Rodgers fault that the British media, sporting or otherwise are so myopic as to see the changes that Rodgers is trying to implement as being a revolution. Personally more credit needs to be given to the structure put in place at Swansea, and the men behind the scenes that have stuck to their footballing guns, so much so that Laudrup is an outside bet to be in the running for the Madrid hotseat.

    Compare the treatment British Rodgers is getting and the treatment that AVB got, if tottenham were in liverpool's league position do you think there would be any goodwill shown to him, he'd be getting slaughtered, left right and center, with loads of stories about how every game is a must win one, and what a good team 'Arry left him.

    Now managers should be given time to implement their plans, but Rodgers is having a much easier time of it than most young managers who take over a bigger team than they have before and is struggling to change it around.
