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

  • 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. 



    "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.



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



     "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.



    "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."
