Posted on the Rodgers thread:
We are worse than we were under Roy Hodgson and Souness (and even worse than Moyes ManUtd). Agree?
Souness still had some left over quality in the team. He made some average signings and form was erratic, but there were many entertaining games with an edge that deservedly won the FA Cup.
Hodgson made terrible signings too, but at least his team could score more often, were a greater threat with Torres and Gerrard (even when not at their best), while Stevie carried the team on many occasions back then, whilst now can't. Also, Hodgson would play two banks of four players, that was pitiful for a club like us, but at least he made a better attempt at organising our defense like a small club.
With Rodgers defending, I can thinking of many bottom half clubs that defend better than us, nearly every team can threaten our midfield too, while I don't need to tell you about our attack.
As for GK, just thinking of how he replaced Reina with Mignolet, Lovren replacing Agger... don't need to say more - but look at the amounts spent, which for me has seen regression in every department despite investment.
