I dont blame him for that as it happens. If some idiot club wants to lob him a wad of cash for a year or 2, then fair play in my book.

Happened to far better players than him in the 70's with the likes of Pele and Beckenbauer going there.

....I know but pub Reds are saying he's unique as a one club man. I say what about Hibbert and Osman, they say "who are they".
 
Would he make a good manager

No idea. But the track record of good footballers becoming good managers is a pretty short one. In England anyrate.

Best ex England captain as a manager? Keegan maybe?

Best ex England player as a manager? Reid is a decent call I guess.

Other than going back into the mists of time.

They do realise he is actually going to play for another real football club dont they?

.....good point, almost worthy of a separate thread. Thinking Bobby Charlton and Booby Moore didn't cut it. Bryan Robson had limited success. Suppose Jack Charlton did ok.
 
.....who knows. Always like to judge a manager on who they buy and sell but it's difficult when they don't have a track record. They will look at the Dalglish example for what he achieved first time around.

He a name so could bring players in plus he doesn't give which he would expect from his players

But don't forget queen kenny inherited what was then a side that could compete at the top - (s)he only had to keep that going.

of course not - said before, he doesn't have a footballing brain. he game was based on his energy. he's one of the worst DM's the premier league has seen. the only way he'll make a good manager is if he has a really good assistant. it's almost impossible for anyone to be a poor manager at liverpool though given the dodgy decisions they get year on year and the sheer luck that club seems to inherit.
