I think you're a better manager than Rodgers. Mind you, I think Rab C Nesbitt is a better manager than Rodgers.

32 mins plus injury time for Perez.
17 mins + for Barnes, Gray & Praet.
2 mins + for Hurst.
Let's stick to the facts rather than over emotional opinion.
So we should have pressed them at the back like we did at Spurs?

Why wait until you ****ed to try and score. If you adopt the approach of winning the game from the off you have 90 minutes to score and not 60, Rodgers ****ed up, again.

That's nice of you but it still doesn't change the fact that Perez failed to offer anything in the 32+ mins he was on.
Rodgers made the attacking changes, its not his fault they aren't good enough.

You're right.. I said we had 20 odd minutes in an attacking system. You've just shown me that it was only 17 minutes.
Do you see why that was probably ****ing stupid when you need to score? Twice?

Did you miss the Spurs game?

Yes. For 17 minutes. Man's a genius.

Some radical thoughts here. Almost as outrageous as continuing to beat ABC Bournemouth when you're in control. Rather than shit your pants and assume Liverpool will play second half.

Are you asking if we should have pressed them when we are one nil down in the last game of the season which is winner takes all? I've changed my mind, even Rodgers is a better manager than you. At least he spent 17 whole minutes trying to win the game.

It was going to plan until Hamza got caught out.
Attacking from the off would have been more suicidal.

Now you're just being silly.
We probably had more chances before all the attacking changes btw.....

It just so happens the plan was ****ing awful. The type of plan you might see scrawled in shit on the wall of an asylum.

strange to pick an error prone player who has been on the fringes for ages in the biggest game of the season.

Mate, even you must see the irony of this post. Surely?

In all seriousness, what do you think was the plan?

So you go all out attack from the start?

You mean the 73 minutes plus, before those massive 17 minutes of going for it. Probably. Probably not.

Fairly obvious, keep them out for as long as possible and go all in for the final third.
Attacking from the off like the week before would have been madness and you'd have all be moaning even more.

Or you become a proper manager and adapt to the game as it unfolds.

No, not at all, we were naive.
