Roy Hodgson has been appointed the new manager of Liverpool FC. The 62-year-old former Fulham, Inter Milan and Switzerland manager has agreed terms with the club on a three-year contract and becomes the 18th manager in our history. He will be unveiled to the world's media this afternoon after overseeing the first day of pre-season training at Melwood. Hodgson joins us from Fulham, where he guided the Cottagers to the Europa League final in May and was voted Manager of the Year by the League Managers' Association. He exclusively told Liverpoolfc.tv: "This is the biggest job in club football and I'm honoured to be taking on the role of manager of Britain's most successful football club. I look forward to meeting the players and the supporters and getting down to work at Melwood." http://www.liverpoolfc.tv/news/lates...ppoint-hodgson |

Jamie Carragher is relishing the prospect of working under Roy Hodgson. The former Fulham boss was today announced as the 18th Liverpool manager after agreeing a three-year deal. He will become the fourth coach to preside over the Anfield hotseat during Carragher's playing career following Roy Evans, Gerard Houllier and Rafael Benitez. Even at 32, the vice-captain is always eager to learn and improve - and he cannot wait to team up with a manager whose CV boasts success in both domestic and international football. Carragher told Liverpoolfc.tv: "I'm really looking forward to the opportunity of working with Roy Hodgson as he's got such a great reputation in the game and is one of the most experienced managers in world football. "After this period of uncertainty, his appointment has given us all a lift." Steven Gerrard today backed the appointment of Roy Hodgson by declaring: "He's the right man for LFC." Hodgson was this morning announced as the successor to Rafael Benitez after a four-week search by the club. The former Fulham boss agreed a three-year deal and is now charged with getting Liverpool back among the Champions League elite. Club captain Gerrard is confident Hodgson will prove a successful acquisition. "The club have made a good appointment in Roy Hodgson," the 30-year-old told Liverpoolfc.tv. "Rafa left a few weeks ago and I know the club were determined to take their time and get the right man for the job. "Roy is hugely experienced and I believe he is the right man for Liverpool. "I think it's been worth the wait and I'm sure he's just keen now to get on with it and start to quickly put in place his plans for the new season." http://www.liverpoolfc.tv/news/lates...ht-man-for-lfc King Roy!!!!!!!!!! |

He wants to bring Hangelaand and Murphy to us apparently. We've got a 15 mil budget and Mascherano is supposed to be going to Barca for 25 mil, so if he spends the money well then we should have a decent season.

Did you the North West news last night? They seriously couldn't have picked three worse Liverpool supporters off the street to speak to about Hodgson, two had no teeth and the third one was a skin head who could hardly speak A lot of Reds don't seem happy about it? I think he could work wonders for you, and getting rid of Mascherano is definitely a good move.

You Liverpool fans eh? What was I saying last night about how fickle you guys can be? Not you personally but the over expectant Liverpool fan in general. Hdogson has a wealth of experience, knows the game inside out has managed overseas and international level with success and yet some Liverpool fans arent happy cuz he's not a big enough name.
I reckon he'll do a great job there and I fear Liverpool may be on the way back.
