They have a choice as a club. They don't have to sell. Maybe Southampton's objectives have changed. They were looking to be a Champions League club, I believe. They obviously wanted to change... I don't have sympathy, no.

More quotes by Brendan Rodgers
They brought on someone who cost more than our stadium.
Brendan Rodgers
If you give a bad player time, he can play. If you give a good player time, he can kill you.
Brendan Rodgers
I meet regularly with my staff to ensure they are aware of what I want, but also to make sure they have the chance to influence the process and use all of their knowledge to help prepare the group.
Brendan Rodgers
Status does not matter. It is what you are like as a player. It doesn't matter how much money you have come for. That doesn't matter to me. I will play a 17-year-old if he fights and he has quality. It is quite easy.
Brendan Rodgers
A player's character is a crucial factor I look into before committing to signing them. They also need to show a willingness to learn, regardless of age and experience that's very important to me.
Brendan Rodgers
Liverpool Football Club is the heartland of football folklore
Brendan Rodgers
I've always been one to arrive early for work preparation is a big part of how I work, and I like to be in my office going through plans for the upcoming training sessions or meetings I have.
Brendan Rodgers
When you've got the ball 65-70% of the time, it's a football death for the other team...It's death by football.
Brendan Rodgers
That ability to press immediately, within five or six seconds to get the ball, is important
Brendan Rodgers
I will leave no stone unturned in my quest - and that quest will be relentless - to try and get Liverpool back on the map again as a successful football club.
Brendan Rodgers
I think football management has obviously changed and evolved in terms of practices and methods, but I would say the values we strive to hold are the same as great men like Bill Shankly and Bob Paisley.
Brendan Rodgers
My days tend to be packed, but I wouldn't have it any other way. I enjoy my work, and it is a privilege to do what I do.
Brendan Rodgers
I dictate entirely how the team is prepared, and I am a hands-on coach I love to be out there with the players taking the sessions.
Brendan Rodgers
I know how it goes. Six or seven months ago I was the manager of the year and I was going to be this and that, tactically this and tactically that, and now, because we have lost two world-class players, I am useless. But I accept that.
Brendan Rodgers
If one day I go to a game and I don't feel I can win, maybe I don't go.
Brendan Rodgers
My biggest mentor is myself because I've had to study, so that's been my biggest influence.
Brendan Rodgers
Look at Tottenham. You spend over £100-odd million, you'd expect to be challenging for the league.
Brendan Rodgers
I have a senior staff meeting every day, with key personnel who interface with the players - coaches, the medical staff, our analyst department. This is a useful exercise as it means we are all across what is happening and they are aware of my expectations.
Brendan Rodgers
I must have just dreamed that about Liverpool playing 3-4-3. What do people think that was, a bit of luck? A British coach playing 3-4-3? A foreign coach doing that would be a tactical genius. I imagine people think I fell into that system through a stroke of luck or something... it took some thought. I didn't just throw them out there.
Brendan Rodgers
Statistics and numbers are no good unless you have good people to analyse and then interpret their meaning and importance.
