She has never been back for a Derby! I said it could never match that one and only visit. I broke that vow to take my lad to the Distin/beckford 2-2 which was decent but October 1984 was truly boss. Man Utd 5-0 the next week haha!

Christ almighty....talk about clutching at straws...
"They did not score until after the break, but managed 12 touches inside the Norwich area inside the first 45 minutes, and crucially those 12 touches came from five different players - Benteke, Sturridge, Coutinho, Milner and Moreno - who had seven shots between them......and - in particular - James Milner attacked the penalty area from midfield too......."

Touches ? How does that constitute anything positive...they were at home ffs.
Milner was a show too by all accounts.....even Pearce in The Echo criticised him....
"In the wake of the crushing blow of losing Jordan Henderson for two months with a broken foot, Liverpool needed stand-in captain James Milner to take on greater responsibility.It didn't happen as Milner endured the kind of afternoon which made a mockery of all the back-slapping that went on when the Reds won the race to secure his signature."

Lawrenson was past his sell by date about five years ago and in his MOTD comfort zone well before that too. The others are hardly the brains trust but this smug imbecile takes the biscuit.

This just weak. Next thing he'll be giving them credit for is managing to not pee on the floor - if indeed they can achieve that.

That reputation took a knock as the feeble displays mounted up last season and there is a growing sense that Rodgers has lost his way and compromised on his identity in an attempt to preserve his own status - a view fortified by his sacking of his long-time assistant and friend, Colin Pascoe, in June. Pascoe felt betrayed by the decision.

Rodgers replaced him with Sean O’Driscoll, the former Doncaster and Nottingham Forest manager whose previous role was coaching the England Under-19s. Since then, those inside the club have noticed Rodgers deferring more coaching responsibilities to the new man, while he takes a step back, observing standards.

However, there remains an emphasis on attack over defence in training sessions. There is a view that Rodgers believes that if he can make Liverpool a cohesive attacking unit, confidence will return to his squad and winning results will follow.

Rodgers’s focus – as it is with many managers including some of the Liverpool greats – is almost always with the players in his starting XI. In recent months, however, this has led to gallows humour developing among squad members not getting any attention - a group who call themselves “the Bomb Squad”.

@DamianLFCpl: FSG still think Rodgers is the right man in charge. Only a catastrophic set of results would change their view, according to club insiders.

That's a hammering in the derby. How sweet it would be to get that slum landlord, family wrecking creature his p45 by totally outclassing them at Goodison in a few weeks time.
 
I haven't spoken to a red that likes Rodgers, not even when they finished second.

Even they know he's a fraud which makes it even funnier that he's still there.
