    Ronny and Collins seemed too focused on improvement and fitness which probably split the squad as a lot of players don't want to improve and arent concerned about being 10% fitter by eating healthier etc they just want to enjoy themselves and play.[/QUOTE]

    These players should have been should the door immediately that became obvious. Hope that is done this summer.

    The biggest problem was that Ronny was generally * at getting a team playing consistent football. People really need to stop making excuses for him.

    He's walked because he knows that himself.

    If we even have the slightest chance of getting Stevie Clarke in and it's true that Rodgers want him then we have to go for it.

    Don't think Clark wants to go back to being number 2.

    Worth a try though mate.

    Alec O'Henley said last night he is one of Rodgers main choices. It all depends on whether there is a job kicking about for him in England.

    It would also mean he could step up should Rodgers be a success and leave a few year down the line.

    That could be written into his contract.

    Really have no preference. Whoever Rodgers wants.

    We must be the only support in the World to have in depth discussions about backroom staff :56:

    True, would need to pay a record fee for him as well though I'd reckon.

    Aye, could be worth it.

    His experience would be priceless. Especially European-wise.

    As long as it's what Rodgers wants. That's the most important thing.

    Of course they matter...

    I'm guessing you're just trying to be a * idiot so people will bite :smiley-laughing002:

    That last sentence mate...

    You sound like you're on side with the players? If that's the case then you definitely were not at the Semi Final... They looked hungrier and fitter than us. If what you said is true (and I've some reason to believe it is, after watching them) then they players need to learn some * respect. If that was Ronny's rules then they should follow them.

    If that's the case as well then those same players can kiss goodbye to their place under Rodgers as well. :56:

    He's all about fitness and improvement.

    Whoever he wants, it's important to have people around him who understand him. Aside from that, i'd like to see John Kennedy get more experience with the first team - could see him as Celtic manager in ~10 years

    John Highest, Rodgers will leave in 2/3 years. He plays football the right way.

    If Gerrard is being offered any type of staff role at Liverpool he will take it over being Celtic assistant.

    And as he should, being a Liverpool man.

    Do not want Gerrard in any capacity.

    Sentiments and star struckness aside, he'd be a rookie and we aren't some daft wee club where you can pop along for a wee jolly and learn your trade.

    We'll get someone decent in.
