Rodgers on Suarez and Signings

The boss explained how he is hoping to bolster the Reds’ squad over the coming weeks, whilst also revealing that he’s enjoyed a ‘brilliant chat’ with Suarez ahead of the new campaign.

“ I have had a brilliant chat with Luis, he is really looking forward to being here and we are obviously hoping to get him on another contract. He is really looking forward to the new season.”

Rodgers is still waiting to make his first signing after taking charge at anfield but has confirmed he’s looking to sign three or four players this summer.

“I’m looking forward to bringing in three or four players that can really affect the group, I’ve got a wonderful group of players here at the moment.

“I read every day players that are linked with here and unfortunately, especially for the supporters, it’s a difficult time because you’ve got agents linking players with Liverpool just purely because it’s great for them to be linked with such an institution of a club.

“But the reality is there are very few players who can come and make a difference to Liverpool.”

So I’m happy to wait and see who Rogers brings in this season as it sounds like he is targeting players who he believe can make a real difference to the squad.
