He put out a team without a single first team starter (with the possible exception of Maddison, when fit) because the Carabao cup isn't a priority and it would have been Liverpool in the next round. He's not deluded, he knows they didn't play well but isn't going to say publicly that they were shit.
Thomas was one of the few bright lights post-lockdown last season and will feature this season. Dewsbury-Hall needs a season on loan, hopefully at a decent Championship club, as there's too much competition in midfield - Tavares is a better prospect anyway IMO. Gray is going (should have gone two years ago) and Rodgers has as much as said so. Iheanacho frustrates and blows hot and cold, but too much cold of late but Rodgers gave an interview yesterday and said there's no money for another striker, the priority being a CB.
I'm just happy with the cracking form of the Belgium trio...
Really impressed with the youngsters Dewsbury-Hall and Luke Thomas for Leicester last night. Poised and mature on the ball dealt with the Arsenal threat on the right really well. The rest of Leicester's team was utter shite. Gray and Iheanacho stealing a living - balloon balls and everything. Rodgers, deluded as ever, thought they played well.
