Rodgers just won another title with Celtic.

Nobody but nobody tell me he would not have done a far better job than Postecoglou.

Some weird bias and viewpoints without any kind of logic or rationale from fans and owners.
 
not sure what point youre making. Only 3 of those have been consistently available this season.

The squad is bad because

an 18 year old midfielder, who has never played at this level is NOT a suitable CB.

An 18 year old with barely 500 minutes of professional football in a tin pot league is not a suitable Central midfielder at this level.

1 striker available this season is Solanke. A mid level journeyman. Richarlison is twice the player, but never fit.

We lost Hojbjergs leadership and experience in midfield. Bissouma never stepped up, and looks like he is auditioning for Crystal Palace.

The reality is, our attack has over performed. But without a central midfield or centre backs, we cannot stop shipping goals.
And a 58 year old Aussie with no experience isn't a suitable manager at this level


So fuck off.
 
Perhaps he shouldn’t start fights with his own fanbase or the media?

Yep. Those comments from last night of “being asked to lose a game” have pissed me right off. Talk about twisting the narrative. Nobody has asked him to lose a single game, he’s more than capable of doing that himself. I’ve stayed away from getting annoyed at what he says but the constant baiting of the fans and now trying to perpetuate with the spursy narrative himself just isn’t on
 
I know that - it’s the ‘asking him to lose a game’. He’s blaming the fans again for his mistake in not understanding the rivalry.

If he’d have straight up gone: ‘I really understand it’s an awful position to be in as winning will lead to the horrific possibility of Woolwich winning, but we need to prioritise the CL as this will lead to use being better able to challenge in the future’ then, whether we agreed or not, we’d have understood and understood that he understood the history and rivalry a bit.

As it is, he made it all about himself and his ‘winning’ values and how he couldn’t believe some fans wanted to prioritise Woolwich falling to win the league. Fans don’t care so much about his opinion- we care about the club. And we show it in different ways and with different opinions. However, Ange is all about Ange and not the club (certainly any more) which we can see from where he wants to prove a point against us with the ear cupping etc..

IMO, he should be humbled and honoured to have been given the opportunity to coach us. Even Nuno who had a torrid time showed more class in his comments last weekend than Ange has done since last season.

TLDR - I know what he was referring to - he’s wrong.
Hes not too worried about winning every game now is he.
