Brendan showed great composure in this interview. Wonderful character and a lovely human being... 😏
Very technically gifted. Wonderful person.
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaa course
Young Brendan. He's a wonderful technician
He certainly knows how to dominate the space of a podcast 😉
@Ronan Gibson don't know if this comment was made to let people know that Instagram can be backed easy. Or that you want us to get on are mates an mess shit up?
Celtic man here pissed off the way he left us but what a job he done changed the club made decent players into very good players was a pleasure having him up here 💚🍀⚽️🇮🇪
And got gubbed in champs league.
The man who said cherio terry Munro
The IRISH will never forgive him for what he done to CELTIC scumbag he said CELTIC was his boyhood club and what he done. All for money 💵💰💵.Rat
Brendan showed “OUTSTANDING CHARACTER “ throughout
😂
😴😴😴
He is a beautiful human being, with great character so what do you expect?
@@-M3phisto- I attest to that Kolo's a great guy 😂
This was a tremendous interview. These hour long conversations with top class ex pros/current managers are incredibly insightful.
In a way its a shame Rodgers managed us so early in his career as he was learning on the job during his tenure at Liverpool and ultimately caved under the pressure that comes with managing a huge club. Despite that, he still did a good-very good job during his time at Liverpool. Its clear that he has grown as a manager and improved over the past 5 years or so and there is no doubt that he is now on the verge of getting another top job. The work he is doing at Leicester is nigh on unbelievable. Its all well and good saying "but they won the league" but that season was an anomaly. They were nearly relegated the season prior to winning the league and the season after winning the league (despite getting to the champions league quarter finals) and then struggled to finish in the top 10 prior to Rodgers arrival. To finish in the top 5 (probably 4th or above this season) in consecutive seasons with a team like leaicester is the thing dreams are made of, especially in the modern era when there is no longer a big four but a legitimate big 6.
In an ideal world I would love to see gerrard as our manager with Rodgers as his assistant when klopp leaves as between gerrards aura, incredibly high standards and respect within Liverpool and Rodgers coaching ability they could make an unstoppable team.
That will obviously never happen though lol. Rodgers is nailed on to be the next chelsea boss in my opinion and if he has learnt enough since leaving Liverpool to allow him to engrain his style of play into those Chelsea players (top class, highly paid players with some big egos etc) then he could well take chelsea back to where they were under mourinho as the dominant force in English football. Once guardiola and klopp move on things will change. Its natural progression unfortunately. From a selfish perspective I hope klopps around long after gurdiola but Rodgers definitely has the necessary characteristics to be a genuinely world class manager. If he gets the chelsea job within the next 2-3 years he could well build something special there.
Ynwa brendan. I'll never forget the spring of 2014. Thanks for the good times.
so long as you're not up against our lot ill always be happy to see you succeed.
As a Liverpool fan, 2014 will always be one of the most memorable seasons, despite the heartbreak at the end. Top coach, good to see him doing well. Treated too harshly by most Liverpool fans.
The scottish presenter is great. Sincere enthusiasm, great social skills, and a working knowledge of the game. 👏
@Truth Talker Interesting, any timestamp examples?
This channel gets better and better. Brilliant.
100%
As a Leicester fan I feel really lucky to have such an outstanding man at the King Power. Top 4 and an FA cup win PLEASE!!!!!
I’m a united fan these podcasts are Un Real 👌big fan of Robbie what a player he was
Brendan is a beautiful human being. Always shows such great character.
😂
Not sure his ex Mrs would say that
@@lucabrazzi8269 No, but Darren Farley would.
Rodgers is so underrated.
I remember being at the ground towards the end of Brendans reign and there was still a tremendous amount of respect for him. Some of the best football I have seen was the that team.
Wonderful human being !
rubbish. most wanted HIM out. Me included and was actually sure LFC would get Jurgen Klopp after the pre season friendly we won 5:1 vs Dortmund ? was there. and from then on I knew Jurgen was our MAN. Bobby Firmino was NOT Brendan’s he was Jurgen’s placement SUMMER 2016 well before Big Head Brendan actually got sacked.
Brendan disrespected CL and Real Madrid and Stevie G
Brendan cared more about shagging his new young girlie than LFC. always remember he buggered off to ROME Valentines Weekend with HER rather than train the squad. WE lost the next game(s).
Brendan COST us Raheem Sterling.
@@henryviii6341 what a load of shite talk
@@crankyoldfart only have to watch BEING LIVERPOOL to know this guy is a grifter a sheister only interested in his own wealth and his BIG head.
Jurgen the opposite.
@@henryviii6341 you’re Some donkey shut up 🤣🤣🤣
Brendan is a top man! I am a Celtic fan and was disappointed in the way he left. I was disappointed as he turned Celtic from an average, underachieving Ronny side to a clinical, ruthless and attractive footballing team and I was selfishly wanting it to last.
I completely accept and understand that the opportunity he was offered was a no brainer! As he said, he was offered a great challenge, great money and a fantastic opportunity for him and his family.
As I said, I was disappointed but not spiteful when he left Celtic and will always appreciate the joyful days he brought us. He made Cal Mac what he is today and of course brought us Moussa Dembele!!
I wish you all the success possible on your new journey and speak for the majority of Celtic fans when I say you will be welcomed back to Celtic Park with open arms as you are one of our own! 🌟🍀
Yea he made you look amazing in the Sunday pub league 🤣🤣🤣
I'm a celtic fan brendan gave us good football good times life and times move nothing but good wishes for the man hail hail brendan
WHAT a great guy. I watched til the end. Thanks for that guys!
I'm and age long Liverpool fan. I rate Brendan highly. He showed us that Liverpool is capable of, though inconsistently. Sterling, Sturridge, Suarez partnership ruled the PL for a while. And would have won the PL if not for Stevie's slip. Great man, great manager!
Terrific season, add to that front three we had Coutinho, Gerrard and Henderson in midfield
Great interview, the set up is so good n never seen players n managers so at ease n laid back..appreciate the the stream
i felt bad for him, he said he didn't want Mario early in the window but the club pushed it through regardless. Not replacing Suarez was that team done.
Same, I think the team were mentally crushed as well.
Him or eto. I would if had eto even back then
It was his decision you clown
Cheers Robbie and Chris, these interviews are brilliant :)
So much respect for Rodgers. I'm a liverpool fan and hes still my favourite manager in football. He thinks about the game so much and knows how to build a winning squad. Hes such a logical manager and it's so effective. What a pod
As a Scouser, top manager, great insight into the game. Will have won many trophies by the end of his career. This Man has 25-30 years in the kitty. Wish I could spend a week learning from him as a Coach. YNWA
Brendan comes across as a complete gentleman. Doing fantastic at Leicester in the toughest league in the world
I agree he deserves manager of the year alongside David moyes both of them being in the top 4 above chelsea liverpool tottenham and arsenal is just incredible.
What a guest Robbie. Can't wait to listen later...
Another incredible podcast by god himself. He’s definitely got unfinished business at Liverpool for sure but no one can take it away from him, Brendon Rodgers is a brilliant manager. Massive amount of respect on and of the field, watching that documentary about him as Liverpool Manager and the Hillsborough memorial reinforced that. Sadly losing Suarez and Sterling, and having the title nicked of us at the last minute, plus the availability of Klopp brought about his demise. However Gomez, Milner, Lalana, Firmino, Sturridge, Coutinho, Sterling from the academy, Henderson from Kenny. We played some incredible football under him . That 5-1 win against Arsenal will be my favourite MOTD episode ever. Have to say, he also did a banging job Celtic and is doing an incredible job at Leicester. YNWA
I think Brendan's big success at Liverpool was his adaptability. He came in and started molding the side around his slow, methodical, tidy "tiki-taka" style that got him so much praise at Swansea... signing Joe Allen early on with that in mind. When he realized what he had with Sterling, Sturridge and especially Suarez, he was smart enough to say, right feck that, we need to play a fast-pace smash and grab type of footy, get it up to those boys asap and just outscore the opponent. The front three were THAT good, and he changed his whole philosophy to play to their strengths. I give him huge credit for that and thought his sacking came a bit too soon. All's well that ends well though, look who we brought in to replace him :)
@@higgins007 Well said Paul.
Fascinating interview.....top class podcast.
Brendan has read every self help book known to man 😂
This podcast is absolutely amazing. Without a doubt the best football one out there.
Hi great pod cast show you put on 💯😁👍👍
Well, I really enjoyed this series. I'd love to see another. Thankyou so much !
I liked Brendan Rodgers when he was at Celtic fantastic memories when he was there .
YAWN.
@@markroberts868 and its YNWA NOT YAWN YA DICK
Best podcast I've found for a while now #God
As a lifelong Liverpool one thing i can say is that Brendan was superb for us, I'd never seen us play so well tactically and with as much energy. He was dealt a poor hand with that transfer committee at the time not being allowed full and total control of transfers - something which klopp insisted on before coming to lfc, something which fergie at utd also insisted on - it speaks volumes! What he's done/doing at Leicester is tremendous, Mark my words he will end up at a huge club - he speaks fluent Spanish, don't be shocked to see him at a Barcelona or atletico Madrid at some point!
Great amount of respect for Brendan and what he did at Liverpool..That team played some absolutely sensational football and i will never forget the pure joy of watching that team score at will (it seemed) but overall his transfer dealings are what crucified him i believe. In the 2013 season if we had even close to a decent back 5 and a proper no.6 we'd have easily won the league..I'm sure of this because our front line was flooded with goals but our GK and back 5 were a joke and our MF had no natural defensive cover..While i do feel he did a good job i also feel that a serious chance to immortalize himself was missed..YNWA
Yea but if Fred west didn't decide to kill he wouldn't of been a murder would he! Shit decisions are shit decisions
Where is the mention of Daniel Agger or the mention of a regret??
No mention of Mr Gerrard and the wonderful job he's done, stopping Terry Munro 😂
Slippy fucked the league for him hahaha
@@murrayfinley6917 And stevie g fucked the 10 while rodgers done the off. Swings and roundabouts son. 🤣🤣
@@Pauliewalnuts_822 so fuck hahaha
Sevco still haven't won a league with fans in the ground Brendan's here for 3 in a row 😂
@@user-jz4ir3oh4e two year old comment 🤣, still hurting you ya fenian nonce bastard #56 🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈🇬🇧
A great interview with an intelligent manager who has worked his way up with total professionalism
Finally Brendan is here! A great manager....and a Gent. YNWA!
Superb from Rodgers. Very honest with no hangups about past errors.
Great Podcast Lads.
YNWA Robbie Fowler
At 22 min he says he embraced Lfc legends etc and yet both carragher and gerrard have commented that Rogers didn’t try and assimilate them into the Coaching staff towards the end of their careers .
He had a chance to build a new boot room
Brendan is the most respected manager around.
Even United fans love him, hat says a lot.
I'd live to see him give the Liverpool helm another go only this time with the control he deserves over players coming in and out. He's only a couple of good players away from winning the league with Leicester in my opinion.
I think Brendan Rodgers has a point and Graeme Souness has a point. Brendan has a point because like in other sports, sports science plays a key role. Stats, tatics, formations, food intake, perhaps psychologists; all looked at in minute detail. So Brendan is right.
However, Souness is also right. When Souness was at the club, he was part of three European cup wins. In the old First Division, Liverpool players were not afraid to put the ball in row Z if they had to. However, when Liverpool played in Europe, they adapted their game and tactics, playing more patient, their technical players having more time. They squuezed the opposition, a tactic bizarelly the rest of Europe finally adoped thirty years later. During the 1970s and 1980s, mnost top continental teams never played 4:4:2. Most teams played deep with a sweeper system, sometimes one striker up front etc etc. So the Liverpool team with Souness had to overcome different formations to win, it wasn't just about matching up against 4:4:2 and beating that.
Meanwhile there were more progressive teams like Tottenham during that era who did try different formations because like Liverpool they had technical players.
So, yes, everyone can talk formations, tactics etc but at the end of the day, it still comes down to how good the players are and how much of a match brain they have to take responsibility on the pitch.
Also, a manager also has to look at someone's character. No good buying lots of technical players for rididculous money if they have character flaws in critical moments. That might be one area modern football is failing because of too much money blinding everyone.
Chris and Robbie are excellent interviewers
Robbie is God for a reason. #Legend.
Celtic fans treatment of Brenda Rodgers was shocking but not surprising.
Cant blame him for going to a club with ambition.
He left because he couldn’t be fucked with the tribute act, he had pumped your lot numerous times home and away. Mate your club actually died, got liquidated and had to apply for a license to get into the 3rd division. We will never forget mate. Couldn’t mark your brass neck will a blow torch
@@adambeaniesmith5645 keep crying #55
Brilliant interview - Thanks guys
44:20 Celtic
Brendan showed he can work within the group! a wonderful technician with great character!
Underrated manager......... imagine if leicester city had a world class squad!
Keep up the great work guys x
Great manager I've always rated him
Love the content
Superb again Robbie
Great interview! Chris is a good interviewer I like him, guys we must see Razor on this! Michael Owen also, and John Arne Risse
Michael Owen? 😴😴😴😴
@@matthewjamison I was just at the shops and here’s the list of things I forgot to buy !
@@shanet5604 No worries. I'll give it to your missus when she's leaving in the morning. I'm sure she won't mind picking them up. She's very accommodating.
Deserves a rough ride. Rodgers is a legend in his own head. Went close to winning the league at LFC because of a brilliant Suarez and a Sturridge's only good season in his career. We conceded about 54 goals that season. Awful. As for Celtic, anyone with half a brain would have won the league with them. Did not have a challenge from another team.
Brendan Rodgers is a great manager. I’d have him back at Liverpool any day.
The way he left may have been disgraceful and shameful but there is absolutely no denying what he did for us. Easily our best manager since Martin O'Neill and one of the best of all time.
A lot of day end job managers who bring their home negativity into the workplace could learn from this great man. Fantastic gig you got their lads.
Fantastic lads👏🏻
The word 'fake' and 'imposter' comes to mind when I hear Brendan Rodgers
Great podcast. Top man Brendan. LFC
Another inspiring interview, ✨
Where's the Paul Scholes interview?????
Great podcast lads! Brenand is a top British manager.
Irish
He was great at Liverpool, but transfers and his defensive strategy unfortunately cost him. Was probably just a bit too early in his management Korea. And coincided with the brilliance of Louis Suarez which a lot of people probably give all the credit to for that team instead of the manager
Management Korea? 🤣
Great composure the lad vey calm wonderful character
Great show, have listened to everyone, Brendan is a top manager and bloke. What a finisher Robbie was, brilliant. Show would be 100 times better though without Chris's annoying voice.
What minute does he talk about Daniel agger?
Thought the same, i skimmed through it and didn't hear one mention of him?
Same mate
It's not just that he walked out on celtic it was the way he walked out on us, he just upped and left without saying a word then next day he was in Leicester, it was like waking up one morning and your misses left you without even leaving a letter on the kitchen table
Beautiful human being
Brendan rodgers is such a good manager he really should be managing a big club like Manchester united.
Any manager would rather be at Leicester. Free cake
Oh and Leinster are a cracking club under him ,very exciting team ,and Vardy,Too drawer
For me I want to know more about Agger and Pepe Reina's departure.... felt like a mistake.. Lovern and Mignolt wasnt an improvement.
The man utd host has definitely grown on me
Top podcast guys Only the best get the best guest Brendon was unlucky that all look at what he's done! YNWA
Im definitely all the better for knowing he has grown on you
You've got to get David Moyes on here
Another good episode of the Obviously podcast
Try having a drink when you hear ' obviously ' ... mangled by the end..obviously 🤪🍺😂🤙
What is the ‘obviously’ count on this one
He's a great manager always rated him highly
This guy claims to be a rodgers fan and 5 minutes in talks about singings. We all know how Brendan plays and Mario Ballotelli, Andy Carrol etc dont fit the system. Never Rodgers signings.
Nothing but respect for br.a likeable fella.my only question as a supporter of lfc,has he learnt not to continue picking players regularly that kept making costly mistakes.non more so then that headless clown skrtel.couldnt defend a goldfish in a bowl of water
Rodgers "I first used this to be become a better father"
Clearly worked then as you had an affair for years
Better father, not a better husband. Big difference.
What a man loved the Terry story. HAIL HAIL
“Robbie will tell ya” becoming an iconic line on this podcast
Robbie "to be fair" Fowler :)
if Brendan Rodgers had VVD and gomez in 13/14 we probably could have done back to back league titles
If my auntie had a dick she would be my uncle
see my comment above.he stayed loyal 2 skrtel & mignolet & those 2 killed us,killed us that season,& it was brendan who kept picking them.i went 2may games that yr,most away & skrtel was making mistakes every other week & a large majority lead straight 2 goals.& yes yes yes i know he scored goals,ive not forgotten this.but his primary job was 2 keep the ball out not put it in.but he killed us over 38 games.i remember after Fulham away in early feb that yr,carra saying the next morning lfc won't win the league unless we start keeping clean sheets.we only kept 4 clean sheets in the next 13 games & more than anything else, even Gerrards slip,this is what cost us
@@eddunne4190 no it was Gerrard slip that cost us nothing else. If he didn't slip we would be champs and you wouldn't be talking rubbish
@@edmundpower1250 oh I'm sorry.theres silly me believing the league is won over 38 games.how could i
@@jacobscarr2334 if Liverpool and Chelsea drew all we had to do was win our last two games as we were 3 points clear of city
C'mon You Reds ! 😀👍
08:30
Rafa benitez and Xabi Alonso next please
He’s a devout United man!
That’s the next hour sorted. Easily the best Celtic manager since Jock Stein
Nah Martin O Neill did a better job and is more revered.
@@KelzMon more revered yes but O’Neill was never in his wildest dreams a better manager than Rogers and Rogers had far more success in terms of trophies
@@stevierotten22 O Neill was way better in Europe & was competing in a stronger league at the time. Rangers were just after winning 11/12 leagues. O Neill all day long.
U clearly never lived through the oneill years 🙈
I'm a Jambo but the Oneill team of the early 2000s was the best I've seen at Tynecastle. Will be interesting to see if Rodgers sticks with Leicester.
Great podcast but a bit more interaction with the subscribers would be nice. Fowler has trillions and a busy man but I'd imagine chris could do with building his personality
Celtic fan love br celtic wouldn't give him the cash to go to next level brilliant manager
Ye he was a great manager for us to be honest deserved longer imo. Such a likeable guy an won't stand for nonsence from players. He tried to reach sterling but he knew better as ya do when ya young. I still think sterling is top player but he hasn't realy got much better an i expected him to reach the level just below Ronaldo an Messi. But he's not even close. Sorry not sour grapes just my opinion. But brendan is a top manager is a great human. Good look to you Mr rodgers I hope you go on to win lots of trophys.
happy birthday on friday Robbie (age46) doesant time fly ...ynwa
C'mon, it's been no secret for years that ALL signings - good and bad - since FSG took over have been committee signings.
What a beautiful human being
If Chris didn’t have that voice this would be so much better
Robbie I’m a believer 5th Beatle fowler
If the modern game is so different & more about managers tactics than before then Liverpool's form right now persuades me otherwise tbh. Football is always about having good players. Good intelligent players too. Can give all the tactics in the world to the current Liverpool team without VvD & they are just not as good. Same manager, same tactics, same team, but not as good. BR didn't do anything for Celtic (or Leicester) in Europe. He should have adapted in Europe & that's his biggest fault, for me. Great coach, fair play. Nice guy, fair play .. but the Rangers team he was beating were no match for Celtic's squad or budget. As soon as Steven Gerrard came in & gave him a bit of a challenge he was off, & left Celtic struggling to get a new manager, they panicked & got Neil Lennon .. the rest is history now. He fucked Celtic in the end & we will take years to recover from that. BR looks after number 1, & why not? Just admit it though, Brendan. He is a good coach. He is the poster boy for modern football & all the bull-shit management speak they use to make people think it's more difficult than it really is. Stein, Busby, Shankly, Ferguson etc were all old school .. & would still win trophies today without all Brendan's fancy training sessions, different Americanized words etc.
The opportunity to go to Leicester or stay Steveie G at Rangers & did he see Celtic needed a rebuild, makes you wonder.
The kitty was done at Celtic so no kickbacks off transfers to be had.
Top man is Brendan
