Rodgers on long road

LONG-TERM PROJECT ... Brendan Rodgers
BRENDAN RODGERS reckons the Kop rebuilding job is so huge it may not strike gold until his reign is over.
Liverpool’s new chief is already well down the road of planning the latest Anfield revolution.
Players like Andy Carroll could be shipped out on loan, with the likes of Italian striker Fabio Borini and Fulham’s Clint Dempsey possibly arriving.
Yet Rodgers admits there will be no quick fix in the quest for a return to the glory days.
He declared: “The challenge is immense, let’s be under no illusion.
“But I certainly think that a club of our status and value to the football world can go again.
“It’s going to take time. And whether it will be in my time, I’m not so sure.
“But I’m going to fight for my life to try to get this model of play that, hopefully, can change the history of the club.
“This is a club where trophies are what it has been about for many years.
“But, for me, running alongside that it’s about putting in place a model to see the club grow.
“That is equally important. To build a group that challenges.”
