After tonight's impressive victory over the gunners, a lot of dumb Riverpoo fans will start lauding Brendan Rodgers as the next Bill Shankly.
If Liverpool Looses again by 3-0 , Brendan Rodgers will be the fastest coach sacked in the history of Liverpool!

No way. I watched the whole match against City. Couldn't recall seeing him get past his defender at all. Decent player, considering his youth though.

Owen's pride let's him down. By insisting that he only wants to play in the Premier League says a lot about his delusions of grandeur.
No PL manager is gonna take a risk in buying a player with his track record of injuries, let alone pay his exorbitant salary. ￡60-70k per week for being a benchwarmer?
He should either:
1) Consider a Championship side
2) Retire and breed Racehorses

What tiki taka?
Sterling's tackling very solid. Rogers should convert him to become a left back.
They don't have a clue...sell Gerrald !
Agreed. Shameful handling of clint dempsey debacle.

Liverpool hunt new managing director after disastrous deadline day
Club owners Fenway Sports Group are furious over the collapse of Clint Dempsey's proposed move to Anfield, and have deemed Ian Ayre responsible
Sep 1, 2012 1:00:00 PM
By Richard Buxton
Liverpool will restart their search for a new managing director next week following a disastrous transfer deadline day at the club, Goalcom can reveal.
Owners Fenway Sports Group have revived their plans after Ayre was deemed culpable for Brendan Rodgers being left with only two recognised strikers when the transfer window closed on Friday night after their pursuit of Clint Dempsey fell through.
Rodgers was assured prior to allowing Andy Carroll to join West Ham United on a season-long loan that a deal for a replacement attacker was in place but the move for Dempsey, as well as that for Chelsea hitman Daniel Sturridge, failed to materialise.
Goal.com understands that this latest setback is the final straw for Anfield chiefs and has validated the long-standing concerns of principal owner John Henry and chairman Tom Werner, the club's senior figureheads about the Merseyside-born businessman.
The pair both harboured misgivings about appointing Ayre to oversee the day-to-day running of the club following Christian Purslow's departure in late 2010, but were won over by his work within their commercial department, which saw him promoted in March 2011.
However, his controversial quotes on plans for Liverpool to lead a breakaway from the Premier League's overseas television rights deal prompted strong disapproval from their peers and set in motion what soon became a season-long PR blunder last term.
At the height of Luis Suarez's race row, Ayre sanctioned the publishing of a forthright statement on Liverpool's official website in response to the striker being hit with an eight-game suspension for abusing Patrice Evra, which contained several inaccuracies and was widely criticised.
His refusal to intervene in the infamous t-shirt debacle which took place before Liverpool's visit to Wigan the following night continued to plant seeds of doubt in the minds of the owners, who forced him to join Suarez and then manager Kenny Dalglish in issuing a public apology after the Uruguay international refused to shake hands with Evra ahead of a 2-1 defeat at Old Trafford.
It is currently unclear whether Ayre will be allowed to return to his original role as commercial director at Anfield, where he has been succeeded by Billy Hogan, who arrived from subsidiary Fenway Sports Management at the end of May, despite helping successfully negotiate deals for Liverpool's array of new commercial partners this summer.
