THE match-up between Brendan Rodgers’s Liverpool and his old club Swansea, which attracted media interest during the first few times both clubs played each other, now draws little correlation between the style of play the teams adopt.

Swansea, who sacked Rodgers’ successor Michael Laudrup and have Gary Monk running the club now, no longer draw any parallel to how Rodgers steered the ship while at the helm. It’s like chalk and cheese.
