@Ronan Gibson don't know if this comment was made to let people know that Instagram can be backed easy. Or that you want us to get on are mates an mess shit up?
Celtic man here pissed off the way he left us but what a job he done changed the club made decent players into very good players was a pleasure having him up here 💚🍀⚽️🇮🇪
This was a tremendous interview. These hour long conversations with top class ex pros/current managers are incredibly insightful. In a way its a shame Rodgers managed us so early in his career as he was learning on the job during his tenure at Liverpool and ultimately caved under the pressure that comes with managing a huge club. Despite that, he still did a good-very good job during his time at Liverpool. Its clear that he has grown as a manager and improved over the past 5 years or so and there is no doubt that he is now on the verge of getting another top job. The work he is doing at Leicester is nigh on unbelievable. Its all well and good saying "but they won the league" but that season was an anomaly. They were nearly relegated the season prior to winning the league and the season after winning the league (despite getting to the champions league quarter finals) and then struggled to finish in the top 10 prior to Rodgers arrival. To finish in the top 5 (probably 4th or above this season) in consecutive seasons with a team like leaicester is the thing dreams are made of, especially in the modern era when there is no longer a big four but a legitimate big 6. In an ideal world I would love to see gerrard as our manager with Rodgers as his assistant when klopp leaves as between gerrards aura, incredibly high standards and respect within Liverpool and Rodgers coaching ability they could make an unstoppable team. That will obviously never happen though lol. Rodgers is nailed on to be the next chelsea boss in my opinion and if he has learnt enough since leaving Liverpool to allow him to engrain his style of play into those Chelsea players (top class, highly paid players with some big egos etc) then he could well take chelsea back to where they were under mourinho as the dominant force in English football. Once guardiola and klopp move on things will change. Its natural progression unfortunately. From a selfish perspective I hope klopps around long after gurdiola but Rodgers definitely has the necessary characteristics to be a genuinely world class manager. If he gets the chelsea job within the next 2-3 years he could well build something special there. Ynwa brendan. I'll never forget the spring of 2014. Thanks for the good times. so long as you're not up against our lot ill always be happy to see you succeed.
As a Liverpool fan, 2014 will always be one of the most memorable seasons, despite the heartbreak at the end. Top coach, good to see him doing well. Treated too harshly by most Liverpool fans.
I'm and age long Liverpool fan. I rate Brendan highly. He showed us that Liverpool is capable of, though inconsistently. Sterling, Sturridge, Suarez partnership ruled the PL for a while. And would have won the PL if not for Stevie's slip. Great man, great manager!
Brendan is a top man! I am a Celtic fan and was disappointed in the way he left. I was disappointed as he turned Celtic from an average, underachieving Ronny side to a clinical, ruthless and attractive footballing team and I was selfishly wanting it to last. I completely accept and understand that the opportunity he was offered was a no brainer! As he said, he was offered a great challenge, great money and a fantastic opportunity for him and his family. As I said, I was disappointed but not spiteful when he left Celtic and will always appreciate the joyful days he brought us. He made Cal Mac what he is today and of course brought us Moussa Dembele!! I wish you all the success possible on your new journey and speak for the majority of Celtic fans when I say you will be welcomed back to Celtic Park with open arms as you are one of our own! 🌟🍀
As a Scouser, top manager, great insight into the game. Will have won many trophies by the end of his career. This Man has 25-30 years in the kitty. Wish I could spend a week learning from him as a Coach. YNWA
I remember being at the ground towards the end of Brendans reign and there was still a tremendous amount of respect for him. Some of the best football I have seen was the that team. Wonderful human being !
rubbish. most wanted HIM out. Me included and was actually sure LFC would get Jurgen Klopp after the pre season friendly we won 5:1 vs Dortmund ? was there. and from then on I knew Jurgen was our MAN. Bobby Firmino was NOT Brendan’s he was Jurgen’s placement SUMMER 2016 well before Big Head Brendan actually got sacked. Brendan disrespected CL and Real Madrid and Stevie G Brendan cared more about shagging his new young girlie than LFC. always remember he buggered off to ROME Valentines Weekend with HER rather than train the squad. WE lost the next game(s). Brendan COST us Raheem Sterling.
@@crankyoldfart only have to watch BEING LIVERPOOL to know this guy is a grifter a sheister only interested in his own wealth and his BIG head. Jurgen the opposite.
So much respect for Rodgers. I'm a liverpool fan and hes still my favourite manager in football. He thinks about the game so much and knows how to build a winning squad. Hes such a logical manager and it's so effective. What a pod
I agree he deserves manager of the year alongside David moyes both of them being in the top 4 above chelsea liverpool tottenham and arsenal is just incredible.
i felt bad for him, he said he didn't want Mario early in the window but the club pushed it through regardless. Not replacing Suarez was that team done.
Another incredible podcast by god himself. He’s definitely got unfinished business at Liverpool for sure but no one can take it away from him, Brendon Rodgers is a brilliant manager. Massive amount of respect on and of the field, watching that documentary about him as Liverpool Manager and the Hillsborough memorial reinforced that. Sadly losing Suarez and Sterling, and having the title nicked of us at the last minute, plus the availability of Klopp brought about his demise. However Gomez, Milner, Lalana, Firmino, Sturridge, Coutinho, Sterling from the academy, Henderson from Kenny. We played some incredible football under him . That 5-1 win against Arsenal will be my favourite MOTD episode ever. Have to say, he also did a banging job Celtic and is doing an incredible job at Leicester. YNWA
I think Brendan's big success at Liverpool was his adaptability. He came in and started molding the side around his slow, methodical, tidy "tiki-taka" style that got him so much praise at Swansea... signing Joe Allen early on with that in mind. When he realized what he had with Sterling, Sturridge and especially Suarez, he was smart enough to say, right feck that, we need to play a fast-pace smash and grab type of footy, get it up to those boys asap and just outscore the opponent. The front three were THAT good, and he changed his whole philosophy to play to their strengths. I give him huge credit for that and thought his sacking came a bit too soon. All's well that ends well though, look who we brought in to replace him :)
Great amount of respect for Brendan and what he did at Liverpool..That team played some absolutely sensational football and i will never forget the pure joy of watching that team score at will (it seemed) but overall his transfer dealings are what crucified him i believe. In the 2013 season if we had even close to a decent back 5 and a proper no.6 we'd have easily won the league..I'm sure of this because our front line was flooded with goals but our GK and back 5 were a joke and our MF had no natural defensive cover..While i do feel he did a good job i also feel that a serious chance to immortalize himself was missed..YNWA
As a lifelong Liverpool one thing i can say is that Brendan was superb for us, I'd never seen us play so well tactically and with as much energy. He was dealt a poor hand with that transfer committee at the time not being allowed full and total control of transfers - something which klopp insisted on before coming to lfc, something which fergie at utd also insisted on - it speaks volumes! What he's done/doing at Leicester is tremendous, Mark my words he will end up at a huge club - he speaks fluent Spanish, don't be shocked to see him at a Barcelona or atletico Madrid at some point!
I think Brendan Rodgers has a point and Graeme Souness has a point. Brendan has a point because like in other sports, sports science plays a key role. Stats, tatics, formations, food intake, perhaps psychologists; all looked at in minute detail. So Brendan is right. However, Souness is also right. When Souness was at the club, he was part of three European cup wins. In the old First Division, Liverpool players were not afraid to put the ball in row Z if they had to. However, when Liverpool played in Europe, they adapted their game and tactics, playing more patient, their technical players having more time. They squuezed the opposition, a tactic bizarelly the rest of Europe finally adoped thirty years later. During the 1970s and 1980s, mnost top continental teams never played 4:4:2. Most teams played deep with a sweeper system, sometimes one striker up front etc etc. So the Liverpool team with Souness had to overcome different formations to win, it wasn't just about matching up against 4:4:2 and beating that. Meanwhile there were more progressive teams like Tottenham during that era who did try different formations because like Liverpool they had technical players. So, yes, everyone can talk formations, tactics etc but at the end of the day, it still comes down to how good the players are and how much of a match brain they have to take responsibility on the pitch. Also, a manager also has to look at someone's character. No good buying lots of technical players for rididculous money if they have character flaws in critical moments. That might be one area modern football is failing because of too much money blinding everyone.
At 22 min he says he embraced Lfc legends etc and yet both carragher and gerrard have commented that Rogers didn’t try and assimilate them into the Coaching staff towards the end of their careers .
Brendan is the most respected manager around. Even United fans love him, hat says a lot. I'd live to see him give the Liverpool helm another go only this time with the control he deserves over players coming in and out. He's only a couple of good players away from winning the league with Leicester in my opinion.
Deserves a rough ride. Rodgers is a legend in his own head. Went close to winning the league at LFC because of a brilliant Suarez and a Sturridge's only good season in his career. We conceded about 54 goals that season. Awful. As for Celtic, anyone with half a brain would have won the league with them. Did not have a challenge from another team.
Great show, have listened to everyone, Brendan is a top manager and bloke. What a finisher Robbie was, brilliant. Show would be 100 times better though without Chris's annoying voice.
The way he left may have been disgraceful and shameful but there is absolutely no denying what he did for us. Easily our best manager since Martin O'Neill and one of the best of all time.
He left because he couldn’t be fucked with the tribute act, he had pumped your lot numerous times home and away. Mate your club actually died, got liquidated and had to apply for a license to get into the 3rd division. We will never forget mate. Couldn’t mark your brass neck will a blow torch
This guy claims to be a rodgers fan and 5 minutes in talks about singings. We all know how Brendan plays and Mario Ballotelli, Andy Carrol etc dont fit the system. Never Rodgers signings.
He was great at Liverpool, but transfers and his defensive strategy unfortunately cost him. Was probably just a bit too early in his management Korea. And coincided with the brilliance of Louis Suarez which a lot of people probably give all the credit to for that team instead of the manager
@@shanet5604 No worries. I'll give it to your missus when she's leaving in the morning. I'm sure she won't mind picking them up. She's very accommodating.
see my comment above.he stayed loyal 2 skrtel & mignolet & those 2 killed us,killed us that season,& it was brendan who kept picking them.i went 2may games that yr,most away & skrtel was making mistakes every other week & a large majority lead straight 2 goals.& yes yes yes i know he scored goals,ive not forgotten this.but his primary job was 2 keep the ball out not put it in.but he killed us over 38 games.i remember after Fulham away in early feb that yr,carra saying the next morning lfc won't win the league unless we start keeping clean sheets.we only kept 4 clean sheets in the next 13 games & more than anything else, even Gerrards slip,this is what cost us
It's not just that he walked out on celtic it was the way he walked out on us, he just upped and left without saying a word then next day he was in Leicester, it was like waking up one morning and your misses left you without even leaving a letter on the kitchen table
@@KelzMon more revered yes but O’Neill was never in his wildest dreams a better manager than Rogers and Rogers had far more success in terms of trophies
@@stevierotten22 O Neill was way better in Europe & was competing in a stronger league at the time. Rangers were just after winning 11/12 leagues. O Neill all day long.
Nothing but respect for br.a likeable fella.my only question as a supporter of lfc,has he learnt not to continue picking players regularly that kept making costly mistakes.non more so then that headless clown skrtel.couldnt defend a goldfish in a bowl of water
The man utd host has definitely grown on me Top podcast guys Only the best get the best guest Brendon was unlucky that all look at what he's done! YNWA
