From Aunty Beeb:-



Michael Owen will be involved in the decision-making process as Liverpool seek a new manager.
Rick Parry, the club's chief executive, told BBC Radio Five Live it was "common sense" to ask Owen and other senior players for their opinions.

"There will be some dialogue with senior players," he told Sportsweek.

"It won't be so much in terms of individuals but what they see as being the right qualities and how they think we should be going forward."

Owen is waiting until Gerard Houllier's replacement is appointed before he signs a new contract with the club.

Parry said he expected the new manager to be installed by the end of June, but was confident the England striker would commit his future to Liverpool.

"I think he will re-sign and I'm very hopeful he will be with us next season," he said.

However, Parry dismissed reports that he had already sounded out Charlton boss Alan Curbishley about taking over at Anfield.

"I was amused by one article which inferred I had spoken to Alan Curbishley in our board room immediately after the game against Charlton," he said.

"That is probably the most bizarre story of the week - and there have been a few.

"I don't think I saw him at all that day."

From the BBC:-

Liverpool will announce their new coach within the next two weeks, chief executive Rick Parry said on Monday.
Parry said on Sunday a manager would be in place by the end of June, but has brought that forward by a fortnight.

That could mean negotiations have begun with either Valencia's Rafael Benitez or Charlton's Alan Curbishley.

"There will be an announcement about our new manager in two weeks," said Parry. "Further to that I do not wish to comment on speculation."

Benitez, who led Valencia to the Spanish title and the Uefa Cup this seaosn, is favourite to replace Gerard Houllier, who was sacked earlier this month.

But Valencia are fighting to keep their manager, and have offered him a new contract.

Curbishley, who has been in charge at Charlton since 1991, has also been tipped to move to Liverpool.

But Jose Mourinho, who has confirmed he is leaving Porto for an unnamed English club, is likely to choose Chelsea ahead of Anfield.

Rafael Benitez has resigned as coach of Valencia as speculation mounts he is set to become the next Liverpool boss.
The Primera Liga club had offered Benitez a two-year contract extension, but the former Tenerife coach rejected the new contract on the table.

"This had been possibly one of the most difficult decisions I have had to take in my sporting career," said Benitez.

"I'm going to take a few days to analyse the options and I will choose the one that suits me best."

Benitez, who led Valencia to the Spanish title and the Uefa Cup this season, is tipped to replace Gerard Houllier at Liverpool.

Benitez added: "I want to see it as positive that the club has tried to keep me on, but after the events of this season which have undermined my morale I have decided to reconsider my future at the club.

"I want to thank all the players, the employees at Valencia, the press and especially the fans for their support over the past three years."

Spanish media have reported Liverpool have offered Benitez a five-year deal.

BENITEZ'S CV
1981: Leaves Real Madrid without ever playing for the first team
1986: Appointed to Real Madrid's coaching staff
1995: Appointed coach of Valladolid but sacked after 23 games
1996: Takes over at Osasuna in Second Division, but lasts just nine games
1997: Joins Second Division Extremadura and leads them to promotion
1999: Extremadura relegated from top flight
2000: Appointed boss of Second Division Tenerife and leads them to promotion
2001: Appointed Valencia boss and leads them to the Spanish title. Repeats the feat in 2004 as Valencia also win the Uefa Cup.
2004: Announces decision to quit the Spanish Champions

Alan Curbishley, who has been in charge at Charlton since 1991, has also been linked with Liverpool, who want to name their new manager in the next fortnight.

Valencia president Jaime Orti insisted the club had done all it could to persuade Benitez to stay.

"Valencia not only did everything possible to ensure Rafa Benitez stayed on for the remaining year of his contract but also tried to get him to extend his deal with the club."

Benitez is known to have had his differences with the board and in particular with the club's sporting director Jesus Garcia Pitarch.

The two clashed at the start of the season over the control of possible new signings and Benitez expressed his dissatisfaction over the club's failure to reinforce the squad with players he had recommended.

Benitez has enjoyed unprecedented success since taking over the Primera Liga club three years ago.

In his first season in charge he led the club to the Spanish title, the first time they had won the Primera Liga in 30 years.

Benitez has also coached Real Madrid's high profile B team, as well as Tenerife, Extremadura, Valladolid and Osasuna.

let's just hope he reproduces his results from Valencia, rather than from one of his earlier jobs ;)
