That's fair, however, it is massively overstated how far we fell. Hodgson aside we are at a level that was the nadir of both the men before. One of them won a cup in that season, the other was fighting everyone in the club behind the scenes. Rodgers has everyone pulling in the right direction and has not delivered any real progress, YET. To sum up last season I'd say that his results have improved as the players at his disposal have improved. He needs to do more than that next season. There are other ways not to look foolish that is just one way.
