Moussa Dembele was on target twice against Manchester City in Wednesday's Champions League clash and his coach has sung the praise of the striker.
Rodgers feel the club is lucky to have such a potential in their ranks. He said, "We're fortunate to have him, he was coveted by a number of teams but his agent is a clever guy."
"Does he go to a so-called better league and sit on the bench and not get so many games, or does he come to a big club with an opportunity to develop and invest some time into his development, and then step up if that's what he wants to do?"
"He really bullied the back four, but he's more than that – he's got a wonderful touch. You saw his agility for the third goal. He's a huge talent."

"We're disappointed with the goals we conceded. We can analyse all three and we can do better. They got a bit lucky with the first one. I thought the performance of the team was absolutely outstanding at this level, to perform like that. The players deserve great credit. To play against Manchester City and perform like that, it was incredible."
"A very small percentage of us feels we could have done better with the goals, especially the second and the third. Everything else was outstanding."
He also acknowledged the Celtic fans as they were in fine voice throughout the game saying;
"It's a noise I've not heard since I've been up here, I've played around the world, in great atmospheres, but this is sheer passion. When the supporters and team are at that level, it's very difficult for a team even like Man City. It's really like a 12th man. They helped us produce the performance that we did."
