Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers says there is "nobody better" than him to lead the club and "very much" expects to be in charge at Anfield next season.
The Reds are fifth in the Premier League and lost to Aston Villa in the FA Cup semi-finals last weekend.
Rodgers, 42, is the first Liverpool boss not to win a trophy inside three seasons in charge since the 1950s.
"Do I expect to be manager next season? Very much so, yes. I don't think there's anyone better," Rodgers said.
"That's the reality of how I see it. Three months ago I was a tactical genius, performing to a good level.
"We lost a couple of games, some important games, and now you're not so good. But that is football, that's what will happen, people will speculate.
