"Allegri knows Italian football, Tuchel knows German football and French football but they’re new in English football.
"There is a very specific philosophy and mentality that you have to have to coach a team in England.
"We can see talent is not enough, you need something special you need a team, you need stamina to keep on fighting every game. You need a character which is missing around Chelsea players right now.
"Brendan Rodgers is fantastic and I would love to see him."
