Bob Bradley was apparently only TV2 Norway today (can anyone confirm?) and asked about Rodgers. He suggested that it could all be over for him if today's result doesn't go well.

Not big news, until you consider that he's one of the people who FSG have been asking for consultation in the last few years...

A DoF is the one who will outline the strategy and philosophy for the club - they will be the ones who bring him players in line with how we want to play. It's to avoid us spending £32m on a big target man striker who is at odds with how we play for example. They will also ensure that we bring in a manager who is also in line.

As we all know, players and managers come and go frequently - a DoF is a long term appointment to ensure continuity and consistency with all comings and goings at the club so there is little disruption.

Who could we go for - Zorc at Dortmund would be ideal if Klopp comes in as coach, or Monchi at Sevilla. Both men are used to operating with a budget and developing extensive and large scouting networks, but also have the contacts in the game.

Players, managers and coaches are just a part of the structure - DoF is the top of that structure.

Until they're poached and we have to get someone else

Liverpool Football Club has announced that Brendan Rodgers will leave his post with immediate effect after having his contract terminated. The process to appoint a new manager is underway.


The Northern Irishman joined Liverpool FC in June 2012 and helped the club mount a memorable title challenge in his second season, as well as helping to develop many exciting young players. LFC's ownership have paid tribute and thanked Rodgers for his contribution.

In a joint Fenway Sports Group statement, Principal Owner John W Henry, Chairman Tom Werner and President Mike Gordon said:

“We would like to place on record our sincere thanks to Brendan Rodgers for the significant contribution he has made to the club and express our gratitude for his hard work and commitment.

“All of us have experienced some wonderful moments with Brendan as manager and we are confident he will enjoy a long career in the game.

“Although this has been a difficult decision, we believe it provides us with the best opportunity for success on the pitch. Ambition and winning are at the heart of what we want to bring to Liverpool and we believe this change gives us the best opportunity to deliver it.

“The search for a new manager is underway and we hope to make an appointment in a decisive and timely manner.”
