Liverpool boss Rodgers sets Moses challenge to win permanent deal

Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers won't rule out signing permanently on-loan Chelsea attacker Victor Moses.

Moses struck in the FA Cup win at Bournemouth on Saturday.

"For Victor it is very simple. He wants to remain in a position that he will remain at a big club," said Rodgers.

"Whether it is Chelsea or Liverpool. There is no bigger motivation than that. If he does really well for us there is a possibility we will want to have him permanently, but ultimately it is Chelsea's decision because he is their player.

"And if he has done really well here then they will want to keep him. So there's every motivation. When you sample the life at big institutions like Liverpool then there's not many that want to leave.

"I have seen improvements in his training. That is the big part of it for me. How he plays well on a daily basis.

"Because if the top players are training nine or 10 out of 10 every day and you have players who are five or maybe six every day, then they are not ready to train with the top players, never mind play games with them.

"So you have to get them up to the level - and I am not just talking Victor here, I'm talking any player.

"If you're at a club like Liverpool and there are top players you have to be at that level every single day and once you do that you will be able to play with these guys."
