Brendan Rodgers has revealed his huge disappointment over Steven Gerrard's Aston Villa sacking as he hailed the job he did at Rangers as 'fantastic'.
The Liverpool and England hero was axed from his role at Villa Park last night with the final straw coming in a 3-0 defeat to English Premier League new boys Fulham. Harrison Reed, Aleksandar Mitrovic and Tyrone Mings' own goal settled the contest in favour of the home side and ultimately cost the former Ibrox gaffer his job.
Villa currently sit 17th in England's top flight - just outside the relegation places on goal difference from Wolves after just two wins in 11 league outings this term. Club chiefs invested heavily and backed the ex- Rangers boss in the summer transfer market but things haven't worked out as planned with the board acting now in a bid to save the season.
