Sacked former Liverpool manager, Brendan Rodgers, attracted empathy from his Arsenal FC counterpart, Arsene Wenger, who tore into Liverpool FC for its action. Brendan got the boot after a wobbling team performance last weekend. But Wenger says the decision was “irrational” and believes Brendan could have ended the club’s 25 years goal drought. In an interview with beIN Sports, Wenger said: “Let’s not forget Liverpool has not won the championship since 1990. They won 18 championships and since 90 they have not won the championship.

“They came the closest to winning it two years ago and now I don’t know why really, the rational reasons why they have made that decision so quickly. It’s difficult for me to understand.
“I’m surprised because first of all for me it’s very sad.
“I think when you lose your job in life, it’s difficult and on top of that after eight games it’s very, very difficult because if you start well and you have a bad moment during the season, people forgive you.
“But if you start wrong straight away you are questioned and that’s what happened to Brendan Rodgers.”
