Teddy Sheringham has played down Brendan Rodgers Celtic achievements and said that winning trophies with Celtic won’t put him at the top of the wanted list for any Premier League clubs that may be looking for a new boss this summer…
Sheringham couldn’t resist digging out the competition that Celtic face, when delivering his verdict on Brendan Rodgers, saying: “I don’t know if Brendan will be a man in-demand this summer if Premier League clubs are looking to make a change.
“I mean, he’s going to win a treble with Celtic isn’t he, but what’s the competition like up there at the moment?
‘theRangers haven’t offered any kind of challenge’
“(the)Rangers are going well in Europe, but they haven’t offered any kind of challenge for the Scottish title this season. Aberdeen haven’t been great recently. He doesn’t really have to that much up there to win the league does he?”
Sheringham then suggested that Celtic would be hoovering up trophies with or without Rodgers in the dugout and downplayed winning a likely treble.
‘Celtic just sweep everything up’
“Celtic just sweep everything up, and would they be doing that without Brendan? You would have to look at the competition and say that they probably would.
“And again, given the challenge, a treble doesn’t mean as much as it should does it? We want to see top teams competing up there in Scotland. We want to see a strong (the)Rangers, and they’re in a terrible state when it comes to domestic football,” Sheringham said.
Bizarrely Sheringham concluded by praising Rodgers, adding: “I still like him. I think you could do a lot worse than get Brendan Rodgers in your football club. I like his manner. I like his calmness in the way approaches things. He gets his team playing in the right manner.”

Think it’s going to be a potentially challenging summer for most managers to contend with, within a world cup season ahead imo?
That includes ourselves with players on the fringes of being part of a world cup qualifying campaign.
Could international managers have a bigger influence upon player’s decisions on whether to stick or looking to move on from clubs?
Can’t forget the so called decision kyogo took during the winter, that has hardly went well for himself to date?
