The really frustrating thing is we have played that attacking football and it got us two 5th place finishes and a hairs breadth away from 4th place.
Now we seem devoid of ideas on how to attack.
I understand why we might have played super defensive and boring football last season when we had all the injuries. I also said last season at the start maybe he has his eye on a strong finish, season management rather than the burn out we had in those two seasons.
However this season we have no reason to be defensive. In November we will have a 6 week break from the game, time to recharge and go again. We also don’t have the distraction of European football to contend with this season.
We lost to Arsenal, fine. We always do. They will have a great season this season. They have recruited well.
Brentford was by all accounts a shit show at the end which may have been avoided by making a few more substitutions.
Southampton this weekend is massive. Lose that and I can‘t see how he can keep his job. Will the players be playing to lose, to get him out?
I know it’s hard with all the speculation going on about half of our team but that’s Rodgers job to get them motivated whatever way he can so they deliver on the pitch.
