Brendan Rodgers took some of his Liverpool stars to watch Bayern Munich's masterclass against Manchester City on Wednesday.

And the Anfield giants' manager revealed they were both impressed and inspired by what they saw.

Rodgers is desperate to return his team to the Champions League after a four-year hiatus, and he admitted seeing European Cup holders Bayern destroy City offered powerful motivation.

"Steven Gerrard was at the game with me, and one or two other players as well. For anyone in football, if you have a love for the game, it's interesting watching two top teams come together," the manager explained.

"That was as good as it gets, you would do well to see another performance like that one anywhere in Europe.

"You have to learn from that.

"You look at that level and, for me it's important because Liverpool want to return to that level. You have to keep one eye on the future and if you look at that you see the quality required."

Rodgers' aim is a top four finish in May that would see a much-needed return to the Champions League for the Reds, but he admits his side have a long way to go to even dream of matching Bayern.

"There's an awful lot of work to do, but watching that game was a real motivation. That's where every coach, every manager every player wants to operate," he added.

"You want to compete at that level and be judged at that level. Obviously this club was doing that for a lot of years."
