Gerrard would love to hear Rodgers reasons for parting with Liverpool coaches

Steven Gerrard is searching for answers from Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers following the sacking of two members of his backroom staff.

Assistant manager Colin Pascoe and first-team coach Mike Marsh were sacked by the club last week which former skipper Gerrard admits was a very unexpected move by the Northern Irishman.

"I was very surprised. I didn't expect there to be any changes in the staff positions," said Gerrard who was unveiled as a new <i>BT Sport</i> pundit on Tuesday.

"I am very interested to hear Brendan speak in a press conference to see why he has decided to make those decisions.

"Brendan and the bosses have made those decisions and I'm looking with a keen interest to see who he puts alongside him and how he tries to improve or strengthen his staff moving forward.

"Will it affect their unity? I think we'll have to wait and see."
