Brendan Rodgers to City (merged)

[gordondaviesmoustache]

I actually wonder sometimes if the club actually "leak" this, so that when it hits the Press, they can identify the person doing the "leaking".

You are working on the assumption that this has come from the club, rather than the fertile mind of a dishonest journalist.

 

[Sigh]

I'm not ashamed to admit it but I'd cry if we got Brendan Fucking Rodgers.

The thought alone is sufficient for me.

This, fucking myth of a manager at the moment, took Martinez's Swansea team up, a good year with them but he was fucking disastrous prior managaing Reading and not that good at Watford. Seen nothing at Liverpool to suggest he's this 'Pep Guardiola' everyone keeps telling me about.

This must be a joke.

Brendan Rodgers is the shock name in the frame to replace Roberto Mancini as Manchester City manager, writes the Sunday People.

The Liverpool boss has significant behind-the-scenes support at the Etihad despite a hit-and-miss first season at Anfield.

The Blues power-brokers believe the 40-year-old Irishman fulfils all the criteria they deem essential – like a willingness to blood young players early, media skills, and European experience – and the ace in his pack is that he is fluent in both English and Spanish.

Rodgers was City’s first choice a year ago when he was at Swansea and Mancini was on the ropes – before the dramatic turnaround that saw his side crowned Premier League champions.

Now the Irishman is back on City radar, with Mancini not safe even if he wins the FA Cup next month.

Rodgers has two years left on his Liverpool contract so City would have to pay compensation – but that won’t deter them.

Chelsea boss Rafa Benitez is also a live contender for the City post – sources close to the Spaniard say he is desperate for the job.

But it’s the pursuit of Rodgers, just a year into his Liverpool career, that will raise most eyebrows.
