Liverpool boss rallies round under fire defender Enrique

Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers has defended Jose Enrique, who has come in for some criticism for his performances in defence this season. "Jose has been playing with a little bit of an injury, but he's still been showing his determination and pride for the team," Rodgers told the Liverpool Echo.

"The great thing is that Jose is always working at his game. He appraises himself honestly when we have chats. He's one who is looking to improve his game and his passing.

"There's no doubt that on his day he's one of the best in that position in this country."
