A file picture dated 28 January 2012 shows Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish (R) waving to supporters prior to the English FA Cup soccer match between Liverpool and Manchester United at Anfield in Liverpool, Britain. |
Kenny Dalglish was sacked as Liverpool manager yesterday after guiding the team to a disappointing eighth place in the English Premier League.
The decision comes just two days after Liverpool's American owners John W Henry and Tom Werner held a showdown summit with Dalglish.
Alan Pardew is among the early contenders for the post along with former Chelsea boss Andre Villas-Boas and Wigan manager Roberto Martinez.
"It has been an honour and a privilege to have had the chance to come back to Liverpool Football Club as manager," said Dalglish in a statement.
"I would like to thank all of the staff at the club for their effort and loyalty. I said when first approached about coming back as manager that I would always be of help if I can at any time and that offer remains the same."
