Rodgers was a total disaster at Reading, and his success at Swansea was, like I say, largely down to the foundations which were already in place when he arrived. Just as they have been for Laudrup and Monk too. He fluked his way into the Liverpool job, and was massively fortunate to have Suarez in his team last season. It's not just the purchases this year which were poor. Every purchase Liverpool have made since he became manager, with the exception of Sturridge and Coutinho, have been poor. I mean, Joe Allen, come on.
Agree with all points bar one, I really despise Rodgers and think he was lucky to join a team that had by far the best player in the league playing to a level that I don't think I have seen anyone match in the Premier League....
Don't agree with the comment about Monk though.... I think he has done really well at a time that Swansea could easily have appointed another man and dropped like a stone.
I real rate Monk actually ( I have stated this many times on here), love the way he sets up his sides to get the best out of every position. I hope/think he will be around the top in the next decade. Bit of investment in some areas and Swansea can push on to challenge guys like Southampton, maybe even Liverpool if they sign really well, for Europa Cup places.
