Rodgers deserves the same patience
You're right but the Shanks era were before the CL and oil tycoon and sheikh ownership. Today, star players (forget about the few exceptions) only come to you if you have CL football and pay them insane weekly wages that will take the average person one generation of hard work to earn. At the moment we do not have both. So Brendan will probably take much much longer if he can be as good as Shanks and that is if he hadn't been fired before it happens.
Shanks had a smaller pool of players, no foreigners in those days.
