IAN LADYMAN: Stop sniping at Brendan Rodgers... it is pleasing to see him smashing glass ceilings with Leicester, he deserves more respect

After his Leicester team beat Leeds 4-1 at Elland Road last month, Brendan Rodgers was posed a question.

‘I was asked how it felt to have outdone the master tacticians Marcelo Bielsa, Pep Guardiola and Mikel Arteta this season,’ said the Leicester manager with a smile on Friday.

‘With all due respect, Mikel has been a manager at Arsenal for less than one year. I have been coaching for nearly 25 years. But listen, you only ever want respect for your work and I am sure that will come if you can work well.
