Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand... he's gone!

Personally, I'm sad to see him go. He provided us with some great football.
 
Liverpool FC confirmed today that manager Roy Hodgson has left the club by mutual consent.

Principal Owner John Henry commented: "We are grateful for Roy's efforts over the past six months, but both parties thought it in the best interests of the club that he stand down from his position as team manager. We wish him all the best for the future."

Roy Hodgson said: "Being asked to manage Liverpool Football Club was a great privilege. Any manager would be honoured to manage a club with such an incredible history, such embedded tradition and such an amazing set of fans. Liverpool is one of the great clubs in world football. I have, however, found the last few months some of the most challenging of my career. I am very sad not to have been able to put my stamp on the squad, to be given the time to bring new players into the club in this transfer window and to have been able to be part of the rebuilding process at Liverpool. The club has some great, world-class players, with whom it has been a pleasure to work and I wish the entire squad well for the rest of the season. I thank those with whom I have built up a close working relationship at the club for their loyalty and support during very testing times, and finally of course to the Liverpool fans, your passion and dedication to the club will see Liverpool at the top of the game once more."

Club legend Kenny Dalglish will assume control of team matters for Sunday's third round FA Cup tie against Manchester United at Old Trafford.

Henry added: "We are delighted that Kenny Dalglish has agreed to step in and manage the team for Sunday's FA Cup tie at Old Trafford and for the remainder of the season.

"Kenny was not just a legendary footballer, he was the third of our three most successful managers - three giants. We are extraordinarily fortunate and grateful that he has decided to step in during the middle of this season."

Chairman Tom Werner said: "No one who cares for this great club has been happy with the way this season has unfolded and we have examined options and considered at length what is best for us going forward. Kenny will bring considerable experience to the position and provide management and leadership for the rest of the season."

See "Author"... quotes make it difficult to read!!

TBH I don't know whether I'm glad or not. Has Woy really done any worse than his predecessor? Has he had a chance to change his squad?

Now they bring in a new guy, he makes changes to the squad (that Woy might also have done) and all of a sudden, hopefully, Liverpool start winning a few games.

New guy's a hero...
 
If these *****tards love Kenny so much why didn't they just appoint him in the beginning of the season.

Oh well, at least there's a replacement for Carlo now :D
 
He's now going to fail now and liverpool supporters will still blame him and not rafa for messing things up.

Liverpool FC is a bad writer then... :p

Kenny is legend for you lot, so if he does even half as good as Woy has he'll still be worshipped. People will make excuses for him no end and then he'll piss off at the end of the season. Otherwise, he'll do well and take all the glory and continue in his management of Liverpool until Man City offer him a boatload of money to do for them what he did for Jack Walkers Blackburn in the mid 90s. If he still has his managing chops that is...

Told Roy to keep his chin up. I've got a couple of scorching slags set up to take his mind off things. Filthier than a coal-man's hanky.

I don't wanna get my hopes up that much... Lets see if that old maxim of "the players just don't play right for a manager they know will be gone at the end of the season" holds up.

Right. You're on. If he does go at the end of the month, I'll put whatever you want in my sig. Reverse applies if he's still at Chelsea. Deal?
