League this week struggling for form in the bottom half of
the table sitting 11th. Bearing in mind, the last two seasons,
they finish, fifth under Brendan Rodgers and they won
the FA Cup,
six months ago, right? The perception of Brendan Rodgers,
right now is what
well, I'll go straight to a phone in that. I listen to just
a few days ago and there's less the fans on their
the seriously thinking whether he's the right guy to take
the football club forward.
I'm pretty astonished to that given what you've just said.
His immediate record. I'm not sure he's a different
management than he was when he won the FA Cup in the summer to
what he is right now.
It's a blip and it's interesting for us because
I think we've seen in the past a little bit where there's
an initial excitement of Brendan Rodgers
and the football is always bright and it's always better
and it's always tactical. We've sat down with him. Liverpool
didn't wind and got insight into his tactical philosophy
and that's always great when it comes into a new club
particular, Lester,
but now, I mean, this is fourth season,
the European campaigns been awful,
star players have not performed.
I'm Tom Harvey. Bonds, is that a difficult start getting
better now, Madison not being great. They have had injuries.
All these things have led to a situation, where their mid
table
and when poor results continue
in this league. We know it 4567, bad results. You're in
Jeopardy for your job.
I will say this, there's no way they should fire this guy. He's
a very, very good manager.
Absolutely the perfect manager for Leicester city. He's having
a bad time right now. He's got to prove to
his Squad is owners. Its fans that he can go. Again,
and I think he can, I think he should be given the
the patients and the respect to turn it around.
The problem is firing in the Premier League is catching and
we have had a lot of fun during so far this season. The other
problem. Robbie, when you look at the reason why these
managers are fired, is it when you're on a slide? Yeah. In the
premier league history tells us, it's very, very difficult
to arrest that slide. Do, you think he will arrest the slide?
I do because I believe in will be, I think
inside there. There's a very good coach, but let me put it
a different way. So we're Brendan Rodgers if he'd have had
a better last six or seven weeks.
He could be with Manchester United manager.
That tells you everything about Brendan Rodgers and why is,
what is good at is
development of challenge. It plain style, a culture of India
football club. He got this football club to being in
the top four and they dropped out in the last two seasons. Just
in the last couple of weeks. They've won an
FA Cup, he's want is one trophy. So,
that's the good part of Brendan Rodgers
the other side about Of it is Brandon is for me.
When we talk about our top coaches
clop pep to cool. I'm putting Conte in there as well. Now.
They don't only have
good football Minds. Good tactics and strategy.
There's something else about those guys.
There's something that
at times is an attractive, but treat, you've got to have,
these are nastiness. These are Street Fighter. These are fear
that they bring that, I don't think Brandon does. And that's
why I think we'll always a toxic job.
Thumbs up. The book is odds, will always have Brendan
Rodgers name in there. You don't often get it though, it
be talked about because of that nastiness because of that bit
were talking about. So, from Lester's point of view.
Yes. I think he's good enough
to get them out of this trouble.
Is he really one of those top six managers in those big clubs?
I know he's been at Liverpool and should have probably want
it there. I don't think so because I think he's a little
bit missing and you think players, then on the back of
that.
Can not lose respect but but it can, it can be done with them.
Correct? And it doesn't keep them on their toes and they and
Rebecca's points are very good, one about a slide. Yeah,
camera. Just
a slight, because Liverpool, it kind of slid pretty quickly
away from it. The title and he went, you know,
and that's why I'm back in him to go again. But I think your
point is a good one of them as he got the.
Yeah, the only way for me, that managers mostly lose jobs, if
they lose
the dressing room and the trust goes. And, and and I think
the nastiness is a way that keeps the players on the field.
Seizing in him. It's a feeling football. Club level instance,
just it. Just before we finish,
it can see the 13 goals from set pieces. Now, that's work.
You can do on the training, go in the back. And when you fear
a manager it, if your man scores a goal
and that money is not going to talk to you that manages going
to put you out on the side. You make sure that got your guy
isn't going to score. I'm not sure of blending Hazard with
these liquid quiet. Now, with his last 15,
