Northern Irishman gets support from former-captain
Former-Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard believes Reds boss Brendan Rodgers would be the perfect successor to England manager Roy Hodgson.
The midfielder has insisted that Rodgers has all the credentials and style of management to make him the ideal candidate to take the managing role at Wembley.
Gerrard Backs Rodgers
When asked by the Daily Mail who would be best suited to take over from Roy Hodgson, Gerrard said: “Obviously when Roy’s had his time… Brendan Rodgers.
“The way he plays would suit England. He would improve the possession football you need at international level.
“His man management is brilliant. At tournaments, in the heat, it is absolute torture and we need to keep the ball better.
“If you want someone who would get the team playing and the players would enjoy working with, it would be Brendan.”
