'For Liverpool, it's been the Holy Grail': Brendan Rodgers 'absolutely delighted' to see Liverpool win PL

Brendan Rodgers claims he is happy to see his former side Liverpool clinch the Premier League title and finally get rid of the 30-year burden.

The former Reds boss is amazed by the dominant fashion in which Liverpool secured the trophy, with 7 games left to play and 23 points separating them from second-placed Manchester City.

"For Liverpool, it has really been the Holy Grail," Rodgers told Sony TV show Pit Stop (h/t The Hindu).

"And I sensed it first hand as the manager as I could feel the expectations of the huge fan-base that Liverpool has worldwide.

"I am absolutely delighted. They thoroughly deserved the title. They have been the most consistent top team this season and it is absolutely amazing in the way they have done it.

"And to get it off their backs after 30 years is a long time. It is generations of families. So I think the happiness and the joy will be celebrated for a number of weeks."

Meanwhile, Rodgers has been doing quite well with Leicester this season. The Foxes have amassed 55 points from 31 games and are on course to secure a Champions League spot at the end of the season.
