Arsenal manager, Arsene Wenger, has admitted he has sympathy for Liverpool boss, Brendan Rodgers, as the two prepare to go head-to-head on Sunday at Anfield.
The Reds boss is under real pressure after a poor Summer in the transfer market, followed by a poor start to the Premier League, as well as being eliminated from the Champions League in the group stages.
Liverpool finished third in their group, meaning they will now feature in the Europa League, and sitting ninth in the table currently, it doesn’t look likely that they will achieve a top-four finish come May.
Despite all the pressure on Rodgers, Wenger has admitted that he feels sorry for the Northern Irishman, and states that it’s a tough profession.
“I’ve sympathy for every single manager in the Premier League,” he said.
“Everybody goes through periods where it goes a bit less well.
“Our job is to survive crises. Part of the job, not all the job.
“When you want to make a long career, you cannot only win, unfortunately.”
