Next Liverpool Manager: 10 Best Candidates To Replace Brendan Rodgers
6. Phillip Cocu
Age: 44 Current Club: PSV Eindhoven Odds: 8/1 Ajax were pipped by PSV Eindhoven last season and it instantly made Cocu, the mastermind of it all, the most wanted man in the Eredivisie. With a title under his belt to go with a previously won Dutch Cup, a history of working with younger players and a strong CV as a player, Cocu seems to possess all the basic qualities desired of the modern big-club manager. If Liverpool were to take a chance on the Dutchman they could be getting one of the most upcoming managerial talents available.
