Were there any boos today I wonder at the end? I have to wonder, if we are jumping the gun, in presuming that Rodgers job is safe come May time. I imagine that the yanks will fall for Brent's BS and know no better. But they have put a lot of money into the club and they may well want to see progress.
Come on Dude the truth is we couldn't afford to sack him even
if the owners were of a mind to. If the Rodgers experiment shows signs
of failing, my presumption is that the appointment of a DoF would be their
first move, but again such talk is premature before the end of the
season at the very least.
Just need to see how the remaining games (is it 6?) pan out. The new
narrative is crystal clear i.e. we had a poor start to the campaign, but
since Christmas blah, blah (unfortunately seasons are 38 games of football)
I was surprised (not by Rodgers reluctance to commit to any specific goal
with regard to our finishing position other than high as possible) but by
his mentioning of next season's pre-season during the week. Should we
not be solely focused on this season etc.
Anyway, there's an interesting run of games coming up after Reading i.e.
Chelsea at home, Newcastle away and Everton at home.
I think that any objective review of the season would take into consideration
the depth of our squad, but there's still plenty to be gleaned about the performance
of the gaffer (and todays game is a perfect example) once the season's over
for anyone looking to move beyond simplistic, optimistic assessments.
