Rodgers expects to have funds to spend​

Brendan Rodgers expects to have money to spend in the January transfer window but has backed his current squad to pull Leicester into the top half of the table.
Rodgers has offered hope that reinforcements might be on their way in the coming weeks, but insisted Leicester have the quality to haul themselves up the table.
"I don't have any doubt about the squad, the team, they're great guys," Rodgers said. "They have always done that, they are an honest group. Whatever they lack in quality they certainly have always made up in effort and endeavour.

"Where a club like ourselves are at, we don't have luxuries when one or two are missing but the guys gave everything (at Anfield).

"It's a very difficult league. It is not all about money but if you're going to progress you have to be able to bring in players. If you stand still, others overtake you.

"For us, these guys are working so hard and developing really well. Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall is only going to get better, Harvey Barnes and all these guys are developing. You want to continually develop the squad. Hopefully we can do that. Otherwise it's a very, very difficult league.

"I think there will be a little bit of money to spend in the areas we want to, so we feel we can do that."
