A man that last
campaign got all the praises from the millions of Liverpool followers, after his
team feats and near encounter with the Barclay’s EPL Shield.
One magic campaign is
what Anfield lived with its faithful, something not seen for quite a while-
still for Brendan Rodgers being the man of the hour for his winning determination.
That was then and now
he’s the subject of much criticism, if not seating in the accuser’s box for his
squad poor playing and not so pleasant results.
After the departure of
Luis Suarez to Spanish Giant Barcelona, the arcs of Liverpool were filled a plenty
with all the monies earned with the sale of the Zombie, something that Manager
Rodgers took advantage of.
Getting several
players that looked promising to his new project and to face another competed edition
of Premiership as the previous one in 2013-14.
The arrival off three
Southampton players in Dejan Louvre, Adam Lallana and Ricky Lambert-coming from
a dream campaign and a resurgent squad in EPL, made Liverpool’s Boss a happy
man.
Also the arrival of Emre
Can, Lazar Markovic and Mario Balotelli- so far none of these chaps have been
able to equal of be near the levels of play that the duo of Sturridge – Suarez duo,
that destroyed the opposing squads goalposts.
And reinforcing its
defensive side with a couple of Spaniards in Javi Manquillo and Alberto Moreno
and Belgian Keeper Simon Signolet, the Reds have shown a lot of flaws in its backfield,
making life a living hell to its boss, who has to shuffle constantly his lineups.
Without mentioning
the err of getting troublesome Mario Balotelli to Merseyside was a total
mistake- for a player that hasn’t shown any of his talents and is becoming a
focal point of a trade back to Serie A.
It’s not easy to be
in Brendan Rodgers shoes and showing a lot of challenge’s from its new cast of players,
which so far have not adapted to his style and new club!
Still all the fingers
that point to the man at the helm for his faulty deals during the offseason and
lack of direction or a project that could see another repeat of last campaign
miraculous run.
Many should stop, as this
situation is not Brendan Rodgers fault, not at all ladies and gentleman, the
man is only human and mistakes can happen, even for the top rated player his
adaptation to his new squad isn’t an overnight thing.
Ask that to the lads
that Liverpool’s Boss deposited his trust for their talents and overall
performances in the field, that so far have been null an a bit disappointing.
Another low point has
been the constant injuries to Raheem Sterling that so far his participation has
been a overshadow by his hurts and so far no repeat of his previous campaign outstanding
performances.
Brendan Rodgers is no
wizard or loaded with magical powers to make this squad as it was in the previous
campaign, time will be one ally for this skipper.
At the end, with the winter
market opening and the league first half near its end, it’s for the Reds Boss
to get back into the drawing board and search for immediate solutions.
Getting rid of
Brendan Rodgers will a not be a so smart move by the directives back at Anfield
and can make things worse, just a vote of confidence and getting a new batch of
players capable of performing and productive.
