And here's an exact translation of the whole feature which you can watch here:
http://www.tv3sport.dk/fodbold/nyheder/eksklusivt-daniel-agger-taler-ud-om-bruddet-med-liverpool/Voice over: When Daniel Agger recently was presented as Brondby player the explanation of why he left Liverpool was simple ...
Agger at the Brondby-press meeting: That was what I wanted, it was what I felt was right and if I feel it is the right thing it's what I do.
Voice over: But behind the break with the English giants there is a story that goes deeper. A story not to feel valued, a story of getting dumped by a club you have promised eternal loyalty and a story of a failed relationship with manager Brendan Rodgers.
Agger: Let me put it this way, me and the manager we were not on the same side last season, well most of last season. There wasn't much between us and for me that was just enough. I did not feel that he appreciated the things I could and the things I contributed with, and when I feel that, then it's time to move on.
Carsten Werge, the interviewer: The story in Liverpool goes that you and Rodgers almost didn't talk at all last season, is that really true? And I think of a "good talk"?
Agger: Let me put it this way, there certainly was not much of it.
Voice over: Just two years ago an early break with Liverpool seemed almost unthinkable.
For Daniel Agger the Reds was not just a job. Liverpool meant so much to him that the club should be on his knuckles forever. Agger got his tattoo in 2012 about the same time that Brendan Rodgers took over as manager. And the manager immediately noticed the Dane's extraordinary loyalty to the club. Even when Liverpool got an offer of about DKR 150 million from FC Barcelona and according to Rodgers Agger gave a promise: As long as you want me in Liverpool, I will be here, Agger saigd to the manager. Shortly afterwards the positive outlook for Agger in Liverpool strengthened. The Dane signed a new contract and climbed to the top of the sallary hierarchy. Estimated weekly earning DKR 1,2 million. Later on Rodgers even appointed Agger as the new vice captain. But then the Dane's star began to fade in Rodgers' eyes.
Clips from old broadcasts: Camilla Martin: … The standout story, it turns out that Daniel Agger is not in the Liverpool team against Swansea tonight.
Mølby: … that he is not in and that he is not even on the bench is a huge surprise
Carsten Werge: … Daniel Agger is on the bench again, what should we actually put in that?
Clip from the LFC-Swansea game: Carsten Sæbye: ... and it is Daniel Agger that is taken off
Mølby: Daniel Agger shakes his head
Voice over: For a long time Daniel Agger fought for regular time on the pitch.
Clip from old broadcast:Mølby: I think this is the fourth time in a row he has been on the bench.
Voice over: Off the pitch the relationship with Brendan Rodgers gets worse
Carsten Werge: When you returned to Brondby - Camilla Martin is doing an interview with you at the press conference - you say something like ...
Clip to Agger from the Brøndby press presentation: Agger: When I no longer felt happy when I went to training, it was time to move on.
Carsten Werge: Where was the joy? Was it Rodgers who removed the joy or was it some other things that came into play?
Agger: ... When you've been in some games and when you have scraped a lot of points together and you really feel that you contributed with something (important). Then when you are neglected and unappreciated, things start going on in your head. Some questions ...
Carsten Werge: You get angry?
Agger: Nahh ... yes, you get a little irritated.
Clip from old broadcast:Mølby: Daniel Agger is perfect for this system, so it's a bit of a surprise. The fans are also surprised that he is not in the team.
Agger: When you look at the stats, as everybody likes to do in the football world, when you see these stats of the matches wehere I played, then I wonder why I didn't play more than I did.
Voice over: But Agger's wonder is not met with answers.
Agger: It's about being able to talk to all your players and get the best out of them.
Carsten Werge: Do you, honestly, think that he is a bad manager?
Agger: I think he is an incredibly talented manager. It can not be taken from him. Proficient in the way he trains and he is clever in the way he sets up the team. Extremely, extremely competent coach.
Where him and I went wrong ... maybe … was that I'm very direct, I say things as they are and I also expect that people say things direct to me. And that is perhaps wrong to expect sometimes.
Carsten Werge: You showed tremendous loyalty to Liverpool, do you think Brendan Rodgers has shown similar loyalty to you?
Agger: ... ehh, I've certainly learned many things last year. I have a better understanding of people who are "dem selv nærmest"
(don't know the exact english phrase, maybe something like "near is my shirt but nearer is my skin"?) in this game - and here I am ONLY talking about football - people who only think about what is best for themselves. Mostly I haven't done that in my career, but ehhh ... with everything that has taken place and the way it's been going on, I understand many of the players. And that is a situation that I have not really been able to see myself in before. So in that way it has opened my eyes ...
