Next Liverpool Manager: 10 Best Candidates To Replace Brendan Rodgers

By Matt Smith /

9. Ronald Koeman

Age: 52 Current Club: Southampton Odds: 20/1 Ronald Koeman impressed everyone last season as he carried his Southampton side to a seventh place Premier League finish during his first year in charge of the club. It would be ironic (or just unfortunate for Saints' fans) if the Dutchman joined the Reds after they signed a bunch of his players last season, including Adam Lallana, Ricky Lambert and Dejan Lovren. It's a long shot but Koeman has demonstrated his skills and even after a slightly rocky start this season he has turned it round quickly and is starting to find Southampton's 2014-15 form again. I'd imagine most Liverpool fans would be happy with the appointment of the 52-year-old?
