Bodgers Target

Conference League - 8th place

Nothing less should be accepted to save his scrawny skin.!

12 points from 5 games should do it.

I see there might be some exciting Football at King Power next Season.

Derby County might need to Ground share and it's apparently between us and Stoke.

Not sure 2 men and a dog count.

Over our dead bodies will we ground share.

Thanks all the shame.

When he was at us (Celtic) he started off by getting everyone to buy into what he wanted and we done an invincible treble. We were a joy to watch and he got us through the qualifiers and into the champions league twice.

The 2nd season things continued in much the same vein but he had Moussa Dembele up front and and at the time a prolific Leigh Griffiths.

By the third although we won every domestic trophy available for the third straight season things had changed. We were boring to watch. All about possession stopped attacking at pace despite having the best left back in the league by a distance in Kieran Tierney and Odsonne Edouard in attack with a very solid tan throughout.

He left before the end of the following season with us a few points in front of Rangers in Gerrards first season.

When it was mooted he was leaving there was a mixture of anger and nonplussed reactions as we had become so small stale and turgid to watch.

It would appear he works best in shirt cycles before his message starts to wain on players.

Yeah, hear what you are saying but, one slight snag..........8th doesn't get you Conference League footie next season. You are going to need 7th.

So that's currently 10 points away from where you are, together with a GD of 13 to make up on the team actually in 7th currently.

Perhaps you should accept his scrawny shin can't actually be saved ?

Ah yes, forgot we dropped one Europa place, oh well all for the best I guess

The Vardy problem. He cannot play as a striker up front on his own. It simply isn't his game, he isn't a Drogba type of player. He has to have a 10 right up alongside him. Solution, Maddison is a great 10, so stick him up there, not on the wing or back as an 8.

If you have 2 up front, you still need 3 in midfield in the modern game to avoid being overrun. Solution, you have to go 3 5 2. This puts our best players into there best positions. YT and KDH are natural 8s, then a holding mid between them of Ndidi or Mendy.

Our attacking fullbacks can operate well as wingbacks.

It seems obvious to me, but what do I know, I'm not on £10m a year to solve these problems!

Foxy Boy that’s my point. Rodgers is playing all of our best players out of position. That can’t be right can it?

Rodgers ball means square pegs in round holes to suit his style of play!

Typical Bodgers , not even played and he’s got us down in 14th.
