Rodgers warns strikers against ego

Rodgers warns strikers against ego

15 September 2013 - 15:54

Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers has warned his strikers against 'ego' declaring that there will be no 'main man' at the club.

  • Fabrizio Romano updates on Nicolas Jackson's future at Chelsea
  • Arsenal suffer big injury blow ahead of Fulham game
  • Liverpool have gone off to a terrific start in the Premier League and would retain the top position if they manage a draw or a win on Sunday. With Luis Suarez edging closer to a return, Rodgers has clarified that there is no room for ego between the two strikers. <br />

    "Neither Luis or Daniel will be the main man. This isn't the type of club for egos. It's a club where players get told where to play," he is quoted in the Sunday Mirror.<br />

    "We don't mollycoddle them here. They are all expected to come in and do a job.<br />

     "If they want to be the superstar, if they want to be the individual, then they can go elsewhere. It's about the team here. We know what strikers are like, but I don't think it's an issue with either Daniel or Luis.<br />

    "People were talking about Suarez making us a one-man team last year and I kept saying that wasn't true. Luis himself didn't think like that and when he comes back, we've got another world-class player to fit in the team."
