Brendan Rodgers Discussion Thread

No offence taken. I know I am being negative and I know that is annoying.

The truth is, I do feel very negative about Celtic at the moment. I think we're a poor team compared even to last season and I genuinely don't understand why we chose to do that. It's the confusion more than anything. At least if I could see a reason why we did that, I could live with it. No one has ever given a convincing explanation other than sheer incompetence. Hoarding money? Why would we do that? Interference from Lawwell? What would he gain?

Ange's teams would wipe the floor with the current team. I know the Covid team was a **** show, but all of Lenny's teams from both stints bar that one would wipe the floor with us. Brendan would probably find a way to beat Ronny's teams just because of the gulf in class as managers; but Ronny's teams had better players overall than the current team IMHO.

I'm not saying we don't have any good players left (McGregor, O'Riley, Maeda, Kyogo, Hatate, CCV); but every one of them signed 2.5 years ago or more and we will inevitably lose at least 1 (O'Riley) this summer. And we still don't have a structure in place that convinces me that we'll do better this summer than we did in the last 3 windows.

 

* reading that

 

I don't think anyone is seriously suggesting our current team would be challenging at the top end of the of the epl, but saying Burnley and Luton would wipe the floor with us is as negative as it gets and wrong imo.

 

I like you random but your football opinions are * horrific

 

That's a very sweeping statement. I know I certainly hold some terrible opinions at times (just based on some I've held in the past that I've later regretted); but I think some of my opinions have been pretty accurate too at times.

 

This current team would not find it easy in the EPL for sure and would probably be in a relegation scrap but to say that Luton and Burnley would wipe the floor with us is ridiculous. McGregor, Hatate, O’Riley, Kyogo, Maeda, Johnston and CCV would probably ALL start for Luton.

There’s a difference between being wildly negative and being realistic.

 

Well this one is * nonsense


Trying to say Burnley and Luton would hammer us embarrassing stuff

 

It's how it looks to me. It might be wrong, I've been wrong many times before; but I'm not embarrassed. I think we all get it wrong sometimes and all we can do is say it how we see it and be open to contrary opinions.

I think from this point on, I'm going to pretty much refuse to engage on this issue with any post ("post" not "poster") that calls my opinion embarrassing, horrific, an embarrassment, ****ing nonsense, etc (and at this point, there have been several). When you get 3 or 4 of these in a short period, they start to mount up and to feel like an attack.

I will continue to discuss it with people that want to tell me I'm wrong without insulting me and to tell me why they think I'm wrong (I must admit there have also been several of these). I'm open to being persuaded to change my mind.

 

give me whatever drugs you've taken because the ones I'm using isn't strong enough obviously

 

Big fish in a small pond syndrome. To improve you have to compete against the best & Celtic are cruising in a very poor league. I would love to see Celtic & Rangers playing in the English football league but someone needs to explain to me how this could happen

 

Either reform at the very bottom level on English football or else every club down there votes it as special dispensation to start higher leagues. So either way, never will happen, and personally I would * hate it to. Spitting on our history and achievements, spitting on Scotland and hitching ourselves to a * soulless inflated entity of a league that’s the antithesis of what Celtic is.

It’s a convo that raises it’s ugly head every so often, it’s a non starter and thank * for that personally. Sell our souls to the devil that.

This season wasn’t exactly cruising either btw.

 

I’d probably be more confident against a team with the big name than * like Luton tbf, in a one off sorta game. Over a league season? Aye I’d expect to come out on top. It’s nonsense comparisons though - if we had to say seriously put us in that league, suddenly we get £100m broadcast deal being there and we’d probably be instantly bought off Dubai or some * like that, because we’d be the biggest potential in the world with the fanbase, size of the club, history, profitable as * with money in the bank.

We wouldn’t actually be us anymore. Could probably get Ange back right off the bat there

 

It will never happen. Aside from the fact that clubs down there wouldn't want us having a share of the revenue they have enough toxic rivalries down there. If we and the huns entered that league there would be carnage They would garner more of the Unionist support down there. Can see it now we would be up against hun loving supporters at every game! The rivalry between us and them will never die. It's literally in the * DNA

 

Stop being so sensitive

 

I shudder to think where we'd be without him.

He's a man mountain against them, always.

 

He's honestly my number 1 pick to go against the huns.

Doesn't matter how we play, he has their number.

Go on yer self Brendan.

 

His know how to beat them is top drawer..

We had players out on their feet let's be honest and he's managed to make this a stunning season in the end..

A double a couple months ago. Well in Brendan..

 

Poor mans suit jacket is going to be humming after hugging all those sweaty *
