haha he's almost nailed it - he has failed to mention the deludes (something differeing from the spreadsheets), the bitters (i.e. nobody else is allowed to take any credit for winning anything ever), the "blame somebody else" (i.e. it's not our fault ... because somebody else did something similar).

He is a long way from world class but think Lucas is a pretty decent defensive midfielder - he's got a poor injury history but is one of the few from last seasons midfield who offered protection to their back four. Presume him leaving will mean emre Can will get a few more games in his preferred position though.

Perhaps, though dont forget he promised Milner that he would play in central midfield next season. Given that they already have Henderson, Xavi Bach and Can there - all of whom are Brendan's "successes" to one extent or another - I suppose Lucas was always going to be the one that got jibbed off.

Personally I think Coates is the one that will come back to bite him on the arse, he looked a lot better at Sland after Poyet was ran out of town and for all the average that he was when he played for the RS he was not really that much worse than Sakho, Toure or even Lovren for that matter. £2 million for him will make them all look like mugs if he keeps playing well.

Good point, going to be interesting to see if Rodgers keeps that promise.

Tbh never really noticed Coates one way or another, hope your prediction is right. Any idea what fee they orignally brought him for?

You forgot to mention the hard-done woe-is-me LFC professional victim. The FA is against us, it's a media witch hunt, we don't have any money, the refs are all bent (against us), the footballing establishment is scared of a successful LFC, modern football has no time for great old-fashioned traditional clubs like us, etc. etc. etc.

we'll file it under "blame somebody else because it's not our fault" ;)

"Andy Carroll fanned the flames ahead of his return to Anfield by claiming Brendan Rodgers misled him about how much he was going to play at Liverpool.

The West Ham United striker left Merseyside in 2013 and hit out at the manager who let him go, saying: ‘With Brendan Rodgers there was a lot going on, with what he was saying to me and what was actually happening.

‘He’d say, “you’re going to play every week, you’re going to play every game with Suarez up front.” I’d leave and get home and he’d ring me and say, “Fulham and West Ham want you, I think it’s best you should go” when I’d just had a different conversation with him 10 minutes ago.

‘I’d go back to see him and he’d say the opposite again. It was the same thing, round and round,’ Carroll told The Sun.

‘He was telling me one thing to my face and then ring me and tell me a different thing. He was messing with my head.

'I thought, “I just want to play football. I don’t need this.” I lost respect for him to be honest and knew it was time to go.’

Rodgers the big Billy liar will say anything.
