Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers admits he has made unpopular decisions but they are all for the good of the club. "I know I can sleep at night knowing I will do the very best for the supporters and the club," he told talkSPORT.

"Sometimes, especially at the beginning of something which is delicate and difficult, you'll make decisions which maybe are unpopular.

"But I want to be the one who steers the club back in the direction it should be going in and that is not easy.

"I know I am making decisions in the best interests of the club and that will always be the case.

"It has never been easy for them (fans) I've had to make decisions that were probably unpopular for players go and I had to adjust the finances of the club as well.

"There was a difficult period at the beginning but we have grown and become better and better and I have great confidence in the coming months and years we can push on with that development."
