Hardly a vote of confidence for Andy there...

SpartanRed · « **Reply #41 on:** July 9, 2012, 12:20:00 PM »

"....a number of talents in the academy..."

Possibly referring to a few of the youngsters such as Sterling, Suso etc

"I won't be bringing in many players........"
"there isn't a load of money flying about as people might think...."

Rodgers confirms that there will only be 3-4 "tweeks" to the squad.

۩ Maximus ۩ · « **Reply #43 on:** July 9, 2012, 12:20:10 PM »

Expect to see 3/4 signings, no major overhaul, wants to work with great players we already have.

LFC is a way of life, not just a football club.

BR: "Training given me a chance to see talents in academy, would prefer to have full squad but plenty of positives to take. Challenge is to work hard and improve, players have responded very well."

Journo: "You only want players who want to play for Liverpool for the right reasons?"

BR: "Absolutely. This is a way of life. I want players who are hungry to succeed and want to match our ambitions, not many can do that."

"I won't be bringing in many players - not loads of money to spend. 3 or 4 tweaks to help us achieve what we want, to be competitive in every game"

Trada · « **Reply #45 on:** July 9, 2012, 12:20:18 PM »

Rodgers "We only want players that what to play for Liverpool, When you play for Liverpool it's a way of ;ife"

"We wantn't bring in many player there is not loads of money about maybe 4 players"

jimmyred2010 · « **Reply #46 on:** July 9, 2012, 12:20:38 PM »

hmmmm. Not good for Andy.

Looks like he could be loaned out. Or cashed in with the limited amount of money we have...

Paul-LFC · « **Reply #47 on:** July 9, 2012, 12:21:13 PM »

"Privilege to manage Liverpool, certainly not a chore. There will be many challenges and I'll make mistakes along the way, but I'll fight to improve the club"

.Mike · « **Reply #48 on:** July 9, 2012, 12:21:15 PM »

3 or 4 signings would be perfect. We dont need a major overhaul. Just a two players in key positions.

Where the fuck has the money gone?

Rodgers: "We haven't got a wheelbarrow full of money, certainly not the kind of amounts that some people seem to think."

I thought the same, but it could well just be a reminder to those players enjoying their holidays that when they come back they've got to show they're worthy of a place in the squad. Take nothing for granted.

He's keeping them all on their toes which is the way it should be.

Lucas saying how he missed playing as he was enjoying it and his confidence was high. Says he will come back at the same level.....

I could sit and listen to Brendan all day... proper, proper football man.

Paul-LFC · « **Reply #57 on:** July 9, 2012, 12:23:12 PM »

(to Lucas) "How hard was it to sit out and watch the team?"

Lucas: "It was hard... hope I won't have an injury like that again, at the time I was really enjoying my football and playing with confidence. I'll be back at the same level, working very hard and the players around me are great. Looking forward to seeing players back from Euros and start the season, everyone excited about the new season."

Loaning him out wouldn't make any sense to me.

Not all that goes to transfer kitty. 3/4 of that deal will go to operational costs.

BR: "When you're at a club like Liverpool every game is important, whether it's league, cup, whatever. It's building towards where we want to go, won't be perfect, will bear fruition as we progress."

Journo: "Historically Liverpool have done better 2nd half of the season"

BR: "I like my teams to win in a certain style, but the style has become accustomed to Liverpool. It'll take time, the principles are based on the players, believe on the players. Tactically with a few adjustments and changes we can and will imrpove. Ultimately we're judged in May."

"looking to improve the league position....."

mulfella · « **Reply #66 on:** July 9, 2012, 12:25:32 PM »

Given that 3 / 4 players could mean a total expenditure of anything from £5m - £60m I think those shouting "Where's the money!" should calm the fuck down and wait and see.

Hazell · « **Reply #67 on:** July 9, 2012, 12:25:42 PM »

Rodgers: Will be taking the Europa League seriously. Will be taking every competition seriously. League is important.

That is what, £10m more than the previous deal? That only makes up for less than half of the money lost from missing out on the CL.

Looks good for Sterling.

It's now over.

How much profit do we make a season? I thought we'd at least have 30m considering sponsors and all that.

Thats how it came across to me.

What exactly was said mate? at work so can't tune in to the press conference

Paul-LFC · « **Reply #74 on:** July 9, 2012, 12:27:02 PM »

BR: "Hopefully we can improve on our league status, every game if you play for Liverpool the intention is to win."

"For me I've made it clear to the staff & academy players - if you're good enough you'll play no matter what your age is. If you have talent, there's no problem. If you're good enough, you play. It's how you deal with the pressure but also nurturing their talent."

Well the Indy and some other papers are suggesting that AC Milan are interested in him on loan. Can’t see that happening after they screwed us over on the Aquilani loan deal.
