| A sad day for Liverpool fans. Kenny daglish is my fav Liverpool player.
But honestly, a necessary thing to do. While I love to see Kenny as a manager, he tactics were going nowhere. While my heart says he sud stay, my head says his is out of touch.
We have to admit that we are not top 4 pedigree anymore.
Pls give your views.... | |

| I'm with u, mate. I've been watching LFC since the 80s and witness KD at his best as a player and manager
But alas, to let the club move forward, we gotta do the right thing. Perhaps he may be spared the axe if he won the FA Cup. We can tell he got his tactics wrong when LFC went sleeping for 60mins and only look a threat in the final 30 mins with the intro of Carroll (he also undelivered and partly caused KD's sacking, oh don't get me started on J Henderson and S Downing!)
It was too little too late. I guess it's a blessing in disguise to lose the FA Cup and we just have to part ways with KD and move on. I also believe the writings is on the wall when Damien Camolli was sacked as director of football earlier. Unfortunately KD did not deliver the results and finishing behind Everton is the final straw.

| Yes, KD and Ian Rush - two of my all-time favourites. Great as a player, not manager. I feel for u. | |

| I've felt that all along his tactics weren't too bad... But it was his persistent selection of Henderson that killed things for our game. Henderson was having on an average, 5 Bad games and 1 average one.
Well, he remains my favourite person associated to LFC. As a person he was like our lighthouse. I hope that he never stops loving LFC. I still hope to see him still being in the VIP stands.
King Kenny, YNWA! | |

| I hope they consider Ian Rush as the next Manager
its sad that KD was not given time to build, i believe he has what it takes, but with what football is these days, instant success is a must
I would think Liverpool given their history would be more patient, but with American cowboy owners.... sigh!!
Nevertheless, thanks KD for bringing us to Wembly twice this season.

| The main thing is that under him, liverpool overpaid for mediocre players. All these stemmed from the buy english policy which in my point of view, is not what camoilli is good in.
Like all businesses, if you invest close to 100m GBP, u jolly well bring in the results. Sadly, we did not play well. | |

| Sad to see King Kenny go, especially leaving when things are low. Would have like to see him leave on the high note. But I guess it is for the best of the club. Tactically he has been blowing hot and cold. Sometimes it works wonders, sometimes, changes came too little too late.
English players are overpriced, pushed up by the "need more english players in the clubs" policy. So we paid very high prices but with mediocre results. For me, the one that underperformed is S Downing. He's almost 28 yr old but still not really stepping up to the plate. As for Carroll and Henderson, they are both still young (both under 25). Need more time to develope, much like Lucas Leiva when he just started.
What we need now is for FSG to find a good DoF (if that is the structure they want) and after that a good manager. Hope they get it done sooner or later. | |

| We also gotta try to convince Aquilani and Joe Cole to stick around and play next season. I can't believe we farm them out on loan and spend millions of pounds on a "buy British" campaign and got lemons in return. And Joe Cole is English and far more useful than Henderson and Downing put together. | |

| While everyone feel sad that he left....I am not. Liverpool have disappointed their fans so much and losing games that they could have won... I just want them to get a Manager that throw boots around and get the value worth the players. | |

Agree. We want some one we can deliver. The rest is secondary. KD was a great player, but coaching is different. | |

| Being a supporter of LIverpool since secondary school days....it breaks my heart to see KD go so like this. It would have been better if the Owners "let him resign" rather than fire him.
As for buying british, there were so many other good players out there besides the above mentioned. And to this day, I still believe that andy carroll is hopeless. Between him and crouch, i would stick with crouch any time. carragher is another that should have stopped playing many seasons ago. Are we really that desperatly short of central defenders????
Let the young ones play.....I am sure that the youth program is strong.....
Rumours that AVB will take the job, others say Martinez.....I hope for Josep "Pep" Guardiola. However I know that Guardiola would not have the same sucess in LFC as he did in Barcalenoa due to the issue of $$$$$...well....its all a dream.....now is just to see who takes the LFC hot seat and what he does........ | |

| Doesn't matter buy which players or which manager in charge, the end result seems to be the same. Or should I say this year worse. Always very promising at the start and ended with disappointment for the fans. | |

| Im studying in liverpool now and it seems even the kop fans are happy he's gone. This season simply has been a joke for you guys and whenever Liverpool plays, you generally feel they will lose. They have become a team who only plays well in big games , their players are just not motivated anymore and a clear out is needed if you want to join utd back at the top | |

| I have been a Liverpool fan since young... almost died of heart attack with some of the results. Just take the last 2 matches... They can defeat Chelsea and yet lose to Swansea. Heart pain! Anyway, i also believe that we need someone really special with charisma to lead Liverpool back to the top. The team has enough talent, if Newcastle(after losing a few players) can play so well... you decide... | |

| KD was having the same problems delivering as he did the last time he managed us. He's blown more than $100 million on quite pathetic signings, Suarez being the exception. So I felt that he had no position (pardon the pun) to argue his case. But, Robert Martinez?? That's a shocker! | |

| Wigan’s Roberto Martinez, Newcastle boss Alan Pardew and former Chelsea chief Andre Villas-Boas are also in the frame. There was even a betting stampede last night for ex-Kop boss Rafa Benitez... | |

| Just heard that Roberto Martinez is in talk with Liverpool. After Roberto Mancini delivered the goods at Man City, maybe they thought another RM will deliver! Haha...
Joke aside, the current owner believes that you do not need to spend much for success (watch Money Ball by Brad Pitt). The worst scenario happen when you spent big and can't deliver. KD sure will gonna the boot!
I'm sad to see him go. But it's for the better of the club. Nobody is bigger than the club, not even KD. I was in JB Citysquare, factory outlet. There were a lot of 2011 Malaysia Liverpool merchandise for sales. Nobody want to buy them anymore. We had fallen so much behind after winning the European Cup. It's so heartbreaking!
Whatever happen... Being a Liverpool fan and as usual, I will still be a Liverpool fan. YWNA...
Henry, please appoint a manager soon so that he's given ample time to plan for the next season. | |

| AVB? better not... look what he did to Chelsea... I rather take Roberto DiMatteo if Chelsea wanna dump him after Champs League Finals. I really like what DiMatteo did at Chelsea now.
Rafa won Champs League using Houllier's team. after he rebuilt it, LFC went downhill...
Pardew... maybe he can get the best outta Carroll, maybe... but I fear he'll end up another Roy Hodgson
Other names mentioned are Swansea's Brendan Rodgers (who is he??), Mourihno (dun think he fancies LFC), Frank Rikaard (well, he's not exactly Pep Guardiola) | |

| Dream come true would be Pep for the Kop. In 2001 Pool wanted to sign him as a midfielder, think he went to Parma instead, not sure though, memory a bit fuzzy nowadays. | |

| In the history of the Barclays Premier League, only 2 British managers have won it: Kenny Dalglish (Blackburn Rovers) and Sir Alex Fergusion of course. The rest of the league winners were managed by foreigners, Roberto Mancini, being the most recent one. Although I'm not a Liverpool fan, I agree that KD is past his prime and its very difficult to come back into management after so long. The Suarez racial thing and the apologies that came afterwards were signs that he was rather out of his depth. I'm not sure if Martinez is the man but I'm an admirer of Swansea's manager Brendan Rodgers. The way the Swansea team is set up, possession football from the back to the front, is very refreshing. He should be the man! | |
