Jamie Carragher believes that Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers is the best the British have to offer.

Rodgers, who had an up and down stint as Liverpool boss a few years ago, has earned praise since arriving at Leicester from Celtic.

Despite the way his Liverpool spell ended, Carragher is still a huge fan of Rodgers.

"When Brendan Rodgers went there, a lot of people thought that was the best group of players outside the top six. When the Leicester job comes up, it's one you think it's the best he can get," Carragher told Sky Sports' The Big Debate.

"I think Rodgers as a manager, he's the best British manager about. Rodgers is in another game, the Pep Guardiola-like football, that way of playing. Because it's in that, people say he's a smartass.

"People take the p*** out of him a little bit but the job he did at Liverpool, so close to winning the title, what he did at Celtic, going the season undefeated, what he did with Swansea.

"I actually think he's the best British manager out there at the moment. I think it is a toss of a coin between Everton and Leicester but I don't see much between them.

"Wolves, I just think the Europa League could be difficult."
