The boss has opened up on the issues he has fielded at Parkhead with the title and Scottish Cup still on the agenda.
He'd only just survived the storm of being accused of casual sexism. One week later on Sunday afternoon, Brendan Rodgers turned up at Tynecastle and waded straight into the eye of a blazing VAR controversy.
“That’s the challenge you have as a manager. During my first time here, I had a magic carpet ride. Any issues were fine and easily dealt with. This season, it feels like there are lots of other elements. But that’s OK - that’s what I get paid for. He insists he has no regrets over what was said in the heat of the moment. And that he has not paid any attention to the future that was created. Rodgers went on: “Listen, firstly, I genuinely haven’t seen any reaction. I can understand and I get a sense of it, but I haven’t seen or read or heard anything. I only talked openly and honestly about what I saw in the game - and it was that one game.
“Then I see our guy, who doesn’t touch anyone’s face with his studs. Admittedly it was high, but it wasn’t reckless, it wasn’t forceful. It’s a yellow card. The reaction, I honestly stay clear of all of that.” He nodded: “It was never a penalty that. If you watch John Souttar, it hits his head and then it hits his arm, there’s no way that’s a penalty.”
