But he feels Liverpool’s decision to sack Rodgers and probably go foreign, with Jurgen Klopp and Carlo Ancelotti among the early front-runners to land the Anfield job, paints a bleak picture for ambitious British managers.

“I think that apart from Germany, England is the only other country where I should work”, Klopp said. I’ve got a feeling that he would be the flawless fit for them. Forget talking about the title.
Former Germany midfielder Stefan Effenberg believes Klopp will be back coaching “very, very soon” and thinks he is suited to Anfield.
Speculation is now mounting over who will replace Brendan Rodgers as Liverpool manager. “The big clubs aren’t anxious about Liverpool anymore”. “This could be Liverpool, right?” he told BBC World Service Sport.
Resolving that problem, Carragher says is up to the owners.
Did Rodgers deserve to be sacked?
Rodgers, who had been in charge of Liverpool for three years, failed to win a trophy with the Reds. “We talk about Arsenal but Liverpool have won one Carling Cup in 10 years”.
However, Klopp remains the favourite and Sky Sports News claim that Liverpool are keen to appoint a successor to Rodgers as quickly as possible so I’m sure we’ll hear more developments over the coming days.
Things got heated up for Liverpool cricket club.
Arsene Wenger expects to see Rodgers back in management before long.
It’s never fun, not for the fans or club staff and most certainly not for the man being fired, when years of hard work and all the hope and possibility end in failure and a parting of ways.
“But with Klopp, he has a track record of working with younger players, improving them, but also losing his best players and still being able to produce a successful team. I was brought here to do a job, I signed a new deal (in May 2014) and the owners know it takes time”.
Rodgers’ position came under scrutiny at the end of last season, after Liverpool were humiliated 6-1 at Stoke City on the final day in Gerrard’s last game before joining the Los Angeles Galaxy.
“I can’t believe that. I was surprised at the letter when you are a loan player”, he said. Pressure had been mounting on the 42-year-old coach since his side succumbed to a 3-1 defeat against Manchester United last month.
