The Bournemouth boss says that the Celtic manager’s work at Liverpool should not be underestimated.

Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe has told The Scottish Sun that Brendan Rodgers is doing a great job at Celtic.

Rodgers was appointed the Celtic manager in the summer, and the 43-year-old has proved to be brilliant at Celtic Park so far.

The former Swansea City and Liverpool manager guided the Bhoys to the group stage of the Champions League after a two-year absence.

The Hoops are also going strong in the Scottish Premiership at the moment and are firm favourites to win the league title this season.

Bournemouth boss Howe has praised Rodgers for the work he is doing at Celtic at the moment.

The former Burnley boss has also praised the ex-Swansea manager for his achievement at Liverpool.

Rodgers guided the Merseyside outfit to a second-placed finish in the Premier League in the 2013-14 season.

“I was delighted to see him appointed at Celtic, taking a challenge on that he wanted,” Howe told The Scottish Sun.

“I think he’s an outstanding manager and the job he did at Liverpool shouldn’t be underestimated. I think Brendan’s already taking Celtic to another level.”

Rodgers is a good manager, and Celtic were smart to appoint him in the summer.

The former Watford and Reading manager’s time at Liverpool did not end well, but one cannot deny that for a certain period of time, the Reds looked superb under him.
