Re: Job too big for Rodgers?

For perspectives sake, at the beginning of the season we had a lot of money to spend from the sale of Suarez to help us build on last season. I doubt very much that the board will put last season to luck or fate or anything else. Henry and co are business men and will expect progress, especially with the money invested into the squad.
At the beginning of the season we were in the league cup, the FA cup, the CL, and of course the league. I don't know what the boards expectations were at the start, but I'd imagine a top four finish, a good FA cup run and to make a mark in the CL would be reasonable targets, along with more building to improve again next season. That's speculation of course, but those goals should be more than acceptable to a manager of BR's apparent level.
There's a few games to go but we are struggling to reach these targets. So to all those who call us doubters "pathetic" I'd like to know... With a reputation like LFC have, and a war chest like ours, along with the "excellent" Brendan Rodgers at the helm, why are we making such hard work of it?
Seems to me that if we do claw our way into the top four a lot of people will say "well done BR" when he's made real hard work of it.
Maybe I'm just being naive...
