Liverpool midfielder Jordan Henderson says manager Brendan Rodgers is among the best in the world.
The Reds are preparing for their clash with Manchester United this weekend.
Henderson told the Liverpool Echo: "He has helped me improve a lot tactically. That has been an area of my game that has come on a lot.
"The manager is very good in all areas. Tactically, he can see the game and how it's going to pan out. He knows what decisions he needs to make at certain times.
"If you look at Liverpool now and how well we're playing compared to when he first came in, the transformation is there for everyone to see. He's a top-class manager.
"He's already shown he's one of the best managers in the world. For me personally, Brendan has been fantastic.
"He's still very young and will have a long and successful career ahead of him."
