Agger: No rift with Hodgson

21 September 2010 17:00
Liverpool defender Daniel Agger insists he has no issues with manager Roy Hodgson's tactics and will continue to fight for his place in the team. Reports in Agger's homeland of Denmark appeared to suggest the defender, who has had to fill in as emergency left-back on occasions with Jamie Carragher and Martin Skrtel the preferred central pairing, did not agree with the style of play under the new Reds boss. However, the 25-year-old claims his comments, given to a Danish television station after Sunday's 3-2 defeat at Manchester United, were subsequently misrepresented by newspapers in his home country. "I am very disappointed with the papers in Denmark for the way they have done this story," he said. "I spoke to Danish TV after the game on Sunday and answered the questions that were put to me. I didn't speak to the papers. "The problem was the questions never appeared on TV, only the answers did, and then the newspapers put their own questions in. What came out was 100% wrong and that is why I am very disappointed."
