It is strongly believed that given the Reds catastrophic season, in which they were forced to settle for an eighth place finish in the league table, the Northern Irishman will look to remodel the playing philosophy at Anfield. In order to do so, he might
have to use all the young talented players at the club.
However, Rodgers revealed that he has carried out meetings with the Reds skipper, Gerrard and Carragher after his appointment. He indicated that they will take the central stage, as he looks to reinvigorate Liverpool’s bid to secure a place in the Champions
League.
He told the club’s official website, “I believe your senior players are vital. Those two are the life and soul of this football club; they've been very important members of the group here for a number of years.”
Rodgers mentioned that even though he keeps a good relationship with all the members of the squad, he particularly had a good rapport with the duo. He further insisted that both Gerrard and Carragher will be an integral part of his future plans, and they
will form the cornerstone of the team.
Gerrard led http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ukraine-c3032. Although the Three Lions campaign ended in yet another quarterfinal disappointment, the Reds luminary was by far their best performer during the course of the tournament.
The former Swansea boss let out his admiration for the 32-year old for leading his team by example, both at the club and international level, and felt that he was a perfect role model for all the young players.
He added, “He's on his break at the moment, a well-deserved break - he was wonderful in the (European) championships. He's a great role model for this club, a wonderful, inspirational player and obviously a great captain on and off the field.”
He also praised the footballing knowledge of Carragher, who featured in a TV show as a pundit during the Euros, and believed that with all the experience that he has got under his belt, he can go on and become a manager one day.
