http://www.liverpoolfc.com/news/latest-news/glen-i-keep-learning-from-brendan Glen Johnson has lifted the lid on the motivational qualities possessed by Brendan Rodgers and admits he feels like he's learning all the time from the manager. The full-back enjoyed a fine campaign in Rodgers' maiden season at the Anfield helm - and he's relished playing under the tutelage of the Northern Irishman. Johnson told the official Liverpool FC Magazine: "Liverpool has always been known as a club that plays good football but the manager is trying his own thing in terms of tactics. "Even down to the meetings - I don't think once this season I've looked at my watch or felt like yawning. When Brendan talks, he gets your attention. You fully believe in him. "There have been times throughout my career when managers have taken ages to explain something very simple. But even if Brendan's meetings went on longer it wouldn't matter because he explains himself in a way that gets you excited as a player. "Whether it's tactics, motivation or something negative - stuff we should and shouldn't do - I always feel like I've learned something."
I know this is 'fill the pages in the off season' kind of stuff, but have we ever seen a player sleight a manager when he's still at the club? More gentle warm air blowing. No real substance.<yawn>

Ole Albert was already out of the door when he said that, he just hadn't noticed yet. Never played for the team again. Even Ryan Babel never managed to piss Rafa off that much...
