Leicester boss Rodgers has pop at Liverpool owners FSG

Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers has had a pop at Liverpool owners FSG.

Rodgers has questioned whether he was properly backed in the transfer market during his Anfield tenure.

The Foxes manager was speaking after victory over Arsenal: "I think if you look when I was in Scotland [with Celtic] we had defensive records as well.

"At Liverpool of course we were very good going forward, you have to ask did I have the players to defend how we'd want to defend? I think now at Liverpool they obviously invest a lot of money to get those types of players in.

"Here I've got a top-level centre-half in Jonny Evans, a young player in Caglar [Soyuncu] beside him who's amazing. We've got a top European goalkeeper."
