Alberto Moreno preferring life under Jurgen Klopp to Brendan Rodgers

Liverpool left-back Alberto Moreno has revealed that he was 'raging' over his lack of first-team chances under axed boss Brendan Rodgers.The Spaniard, 23, had been used sparingly by the Northern Irishman in the early stages of the 2015-16 campaign, starting three Premier League games before Rodgers's dismissal on October 4.He has found himself with significantly more chances under Klopp, who started him in his first matches in charge, and Moreno admits that he is much more content at Anfield now."I perhaps felt that Brendan didn't have quite so much confidence in me, certainly at the start of the season," he told reporters. "He told me I was training hard but then I didn't feature for those first five or six games."He said to me that it was still early in the season and that my opportunity would come but after the first game against Stoke, when we kept a clean sheet, he said he wasn't going to change anything defensively at that point."It is true that when I was out of the team I was angry. It never entered my head that I was going to leave as I want to stay forever, but I had this inner anger, a rage almost. I felt I was playing well, training well. He told me that I was training well. But I couldn't see why I wasn't getting a chance at the beginning."Moreno is expected to continue at left-back when the Merseyside outfit visit Chelsea on Saturday.

Hull City Manager chides Tottenham's Jan Vertonghen following Spurs' 2-1 win

Following Spurs' 2-1 win over Hull City, City manager Steve Bruce lashed out at Tottenham's Jan Vertonghen for exaggerating to get Hull City's Ramirez Gaston red-carded. Bruce castigated such act as unhealthy for the Premier League. The Uruguayan midfielder Ramirez got the red card for kicking at Belgian Jan Vertonghen. Bruce argued his man only showed "petulance" when he was provoked by Jan. And such behaviour could not be regarded as "violent". The City went down when Tottenham's Harry Kane and Christian Eriksen found the net in the game's second half. Speaking with his news conference, Bruce said, "Ramirez has shown petulance. Vertonghen has had a little go at him, and Ramirez has flicked out. The law says it is a violent conduct. For me, it is an act of petulance -- it is not violent conduct." Via espn
