“Words, you always have to be careful with. I’ve seen the banner, the Celtic supporters are hurting.“They gave me everything so I’m not going to say anything other than that.“It was a shock and they are probably angry but eventually reality will set in and the work we did will be appreciated.“But what gave me the comfort to move is what we put in place there was going to stabilise the club going forward.

‘Brendan Rodgers will regret leaving Celtic for the rest of his life!’

“I knew, coming away, the improvements made will hopefully allow that success to continue.“It may be a little unfair on Leicester, I haven’t swapped coming into a mediocre club.“It’s recent history has been incredible, they have that ambition to push higher than where we are.”Rodgers’ impact has already been welcomed by the Leicester squad, with the 46-year-old lifting the mood at their Belvoir Drive training ground.The 46-year-old was at the King Power Stadium to watch the Foxes beat Brighton3

talkSPORT understands the players have been receptive to his changes, including giving them a monthly training schedule, instead of the weekly plan under Puel.He takes control with Leicester 10th in the Premier League ahead of Sunday’s trip to former club Watford.“The expectancy is to challenge for a European place and challenge for a trophy,” he said.“What Leicester achieved was an incredible story, it’s one of the most incredible sporting stories.That will always be difficult to repeat. “After a couple of years of instability and sitting mid-table, their objective is to move up.“I don’t want to put any pressure on the players. We just have to do our very best.“For the remainder of the season we will look to do that.”
