Questions Liverpool, questions?

After 4 games of the new EPL, Liverpool are yet to record their first win and are sitting 4th from bottom.

Sure this can and does happen. But not to a quality side like Liverpool!  What is going?

Or should we be asking who is doing or not doing?

Brendon Rogers, the man who took over from King Kenny has a huge job on his hands to turn things around. He is the man at the moment who has lead Liverpool to their worst start to the season in over 100 years.

Something is wrong.

Steven Gerrad has asked for patience from the fans. But fans only have so much patience. Thatsportsite wants to see results.

That is what counts!

Rogers has not got his selections right. And how can you sell one striker and not buy another one. It does not make sense and with that in mind, you not going to turn things around with decisions like that.

Luis Suarez is your lone striker, what back-up does he have?

Mr Rogers, its not working. As good as Suarez and Gerrad are as individuals, They will not bring Liverpool success by themselves, it is a team you need and a team the fans can identify themselves with.  That is what brings success.

At the moment its not happening and that is why Mr Rogers will take Liverpool to the glory and heights of yesteryear.

Rogers is on the Right Track

As was partly explained by Mr Henry’s Open Letter to Liverpool supporters, Brendan Rogers should be given time to achieve the system which he feels will bring success to the team.

Regardless of how good individual players within the squad are (think Gerrard and Suarez here), it is inevitable that they will require time to become as adept at the ‘push and pass’ system as what the Swansea team was for most of last season.

Liverpool supporters should really look to a proper comparison of the performance against Arsenal versus this weekend’s match against Sunderland. Sunderland had only one shot on target and managed to score. In that sense, perhaps switching Glen Johnson’s flank was not the best tactic to use. That said, the match was dominated by Liverpool in terms of possession, and Sunderland’s players seemed completely run off their feet in the last quarter of the match.

It really is too soon in the season for the panic button to be pushed. Unlearning some of last season’s habits and completely embracing Rogers’ system, while also accommodating a couple of players who are new to the team will all equate to matters looking much worse than what they actually are.

Have a genuine look at the highlights of Swansea F.C.’s matches last season and it will soon be clear than, once Liverpool manages to ‘click’ then all the current woe and anger will be gone and forgotten. It can only get better.
