Brendan Rodgers has just christened Stuart Armstrong “the blond Cafu”

Wherever Brendan Rodgers goes, he finds himself a brand new iteration of Brazilian legend Cafu.

At Liverpool, it was young full back Jon Flanagan who earned comparisons to the two-time World Cup winner. https://twitter.com/jon_flan93/status/465215608465133568?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw And it seems as though Rodgers has now stumbled on yet another player who bears a resemblance to Cafu. Ahead of Celtic's 3-0 victory over Inverness Caledonian Thistle on Saturday, the Hoops boss was forced into some tactical tinkering and opted to utilise Stuart Armstrong as a right back. Armstrong, more accustomed to a midfield role, performed admirably and was singled out for particular praise, as well as a new nickname, by his gaffer. https://twitter.com/celticfc/status/794960078038306816 https://twitter.com/celticfc/status/794960288365809664 Only last week Rodgers backed Armstrong, 24, for a senior call-up to the Scotland squad after impressing for Celtic. "He's a bright boy, he takes on information well and I think, if he keeps going, keeps improving and he keeps showing the level, I think there's no question he could feature for the national team," said Rodgers. Armstrong remains committed to focusing on his club for the time-being but he admitted that he is flattered by Rodgers' compliment and is looking forward to his Scotland debut. “If I can become a regular in the Celtic team and put in good performances on a consistent basis then it would stake a good claim,” Armstrong said. “But I have always said my focus is on playing well here. The rest follows.” Catch up with the latest episode of Football Friday Live...
