Do you think Brendan Rodgers is believing the hype around him?

Now this isn't a pointless dig at Liverpool (although I'm not above doing that) But Rodgers has had a lot of praise in the last few seasons for what he has done at Swansea and Liverpool last season.And rightly so. but do you think it's started to affect him in a negative way? Like he is believing is is up there with the greats?Not saying he won't be. But he is still young for a manager. Still has a lot to learn.

    Suarez helped him massively last season, made his job a hell a lot easier, To be fair though Rodgers got the best out of Suarez with his tactics and playing style, and Suarez got the best out of his team, this season is going to be a big test for Rodger, if he can steer Liverpool into the top 4 again it will be an achievement but it's going to be very difficult with the added Champions League Football distraction, A lot of new players who have to gel and fit into Rodgers' high press high tensity style and it's going to be difficult to motivate his team, Balotelli was a huge mistake as well, Sturridge can lead the line and Lambert would be a decent second choice striker.

    A little bit.

    He thought he could manage Balotelli despite the fact some big successful manager have tried and failed at it, but Brendan thought he could just do it just because he's so amazing.

    And then secondly when we played Chelsea last year it was obvious if we just attacked them they'd get us on the counter but Brendan refused to change tactics and thought we'd just cut through them and it never happened and we got caught out.

    He has his shortcomings but what manager doesn't?

    I honestly don't know.

    But i definitely think he lacks some defensive coaching ability, our defendes individually are good players but the defence just crumbles so easily and it doesn't help that Mignolet panics and flaps around like a demented chicken every time the ball enters the box.

    Just a little bit, the guy has a portrait of himself in his own living room, haha

    And he cheated on his wife and got rid of her for a younger woman, he seems to think he some A list celeb just because he manages a past it football club

    Nothing to do with football this of course but it shows the mentality of the guy, after the Basel game "we played well and showed great character" wtf was he watching?

    He could be showing a bit too much patients .. it’s hard to tell, sucess came quicker then expected for him thanks to suarez . and now with more games to manage and lots of new players.. But improvement has been steady so I have to trust him.

    No. His team is simply finding it difficult to score goals.
