Brendan Rodgers has claimed that Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp would face more questions over his managerial ability if he was British.
Brendan Rodgers was in charge of Liverpool during their most recent title challenge in 2013-14, falling just short
However, the Northern Irishman has rejected suggestions that his side were a one-man team, and believes that being British brings with it more criticism when a team is performing well.
“People said, ‘Well, he had Luis Suarez’. I thought that was very discourteous, mainly to the rest of the players, because we had created a team and we had one team and it had one brain,” Rodgers told The Mail.
“Luis was the focal point of it but he will tell you himself that he couldn’t have done that without the adjustments of the others.
“If you equate what was said about me with what might be said about a foreign coach, then as an example Mauricio Pochettino has done a great job at Tottenham but they probably wouldn’t say, ‘It’s down to Harry Kane’. And it is the same with Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool with the contribution of Mo Salah. But for a British coach, there always has to be a catch.”
