Former Tottenham Hotspur chairman Lord Sugar has claimed on social networking site Twitter that Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers is not a good manager.

The former Tottenham chief believes that Rodgers was bailed out by Luis Suarez during the 2013-14 season.

Suarez, who left Liverpool for Spanish giants Barcelona in the summer of 2014, was the best player for the Reds during the 2013-14 campaign.

The 28-year-old striker scored 31 goals and created as many as 87 chances in 33 Premier League appearances that season.

The Uruguay international had a pass accuracy of 75% and a shot accuracy of 53%, and won 19 headers, 93 dribbles and 27 tackles.

Liverpool finished second in 2013-14, but they failed to finish in the top four of the Premier League last season and have made a disappointing start this campaign.

Rodgers has come under pressure already, but perhaps Liverpool fans should retain faith in him to turn things around.
