All of the failings we pointed out last season have now been repeated and no excuse is going to wash this time around.
It is going to be a big summer. Everyone, I hope and expect, has learned lessons from some things which influenced this season. Therefore, everyone is up for that challenge and the work is going on.
While Rodgers looked to kick on from Munich Nicholson’s target was very different, he decided to cash in as the vendetta between the decision makers and the manager kicked in, a relic from the 2018/19 season.
However, if you want to progress, then, as I said, you need to bring in quality and that’s something that we hopefully can do.
Rodgers is clearly being a bit cute. He will have had the final say on the deal but it looks like he’s agreed to take a look at a low risk cheap arrival while also creating a bit of distance if he doesn’t quite work out.
