Brendan Rodgers was a special guest on the Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast - and gave his backing to Jurgen Klopp.

Klopp - Rodgers' replacement as Liverpool manager - spoke of his disappointment at his side's defensive struggles after they almost threw away three points at Leicester on Saturday.

The Reds have conceded ten goals in their last three away games and the German's subsequent claims he could write a book on the art of defending raised plenty of eyebrows.
