Simon Mignolet: 'Brendan Rodgers believes in me'

Simon Mignolet says that the confidence shown in him by Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers has helped him rediscover his best form in recent weeks.

Simon Mignolet has said that he "appreciates" the backing given to him by Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers.

The Belgian stopper was "dropped indefinitely" by Rodgers following a series of poor performances earlier in the season, but has since reclaimed his place in the side.

Mignolet has recently played his part in an upturn in form for the Reds and has said that Rodgers handled the situation well.

"The manager has shown his faith in me and confidence in me and he believes in me," Mignolet told the Daily Mail.

"I appreciate it. When you play for a big club, people will have their eye on you and to see when you concede a goal, could he have done better? That will always be the case and I accept that."

Liverpool have conceded just twice in their last five Premier League games.
