His love affair? He played him a few games and then sold him.
Rodgers' envelope thing was cheesy, but he has acted with nothing but class since arriving at Liverpool. He has them playing flowing, attacking football that is fun to watch. His man management has also been great, and he's managed to get the best out of all types of players, from Suarez, to Sterling, to even Downing.
The only transfer that hasn't worked out thus far has been Borini, and he is still a young player who has value.
Rodgers has a long way to go before himself or Liverpool are considered among the best, but so far he's done all the right things and deserves every chance to get there.
