“Irrelevant of his experiences, we will improve as a squad when he comes back. I’m just really pleased for him. It was a fantastic performance by Arsenal [against Real Madrid]over the two legs and to see him be involved in that is obviously a great experience for him. It’s going to be a really exciting last couple of months for him there.
“We know what we are getting with Kieran”

We know what we are getting with Kieran. He’s a player with great experience because every single week in the Premier League is like a big European game. It’s so challenging and testing and he’s had a number of years of that. We are getting him back at a brilliant age and, hopefully, he can help this squad achieve a lot more. But we also need a squad of players and it can dovetail perfectly with someone like Greg. But we have to wait and see.”
Taylor is yet to show his hand
Taylor is yet to show his hand and decide either way what he plans to do moving ahead into next season, however, Rodgers reiterated his desire to keep him around but that it’s ultimately out of his hands now. He added: “I have said all along, he is a player I so want to keep here. But that bit of it is out of my hands now. Until then, we just continue to work with him and never give up hope because there is still a bit of time left until the end of the season. I have got nothing concrete to give you on that.”
