Will he never learn?
Basically he says:
Dalglish was a reject in the Summer, but I'm looking over my shoulder as they probably will want him if I stay in charge. He should stick to The Academy churning out youngsters I will get rid of and replace with journey men as that is all that he is good for.
Though I'm not political I will belittle him in public because he really upset me going for the job, but I got it haha!
I'm not going to be here long (if only!) but he should stay out the back and keep his mouth shut.
Roy Hodgson at ease alongside Liverpool ambassador Kenny Dalglish
Roy Hodgson insists he does not consider Kenny Dalglish a threat, despite the former Liverpool player and manager putting himself forward as a potential replacement for Rafael Benítez during the summer.
Fans even pointedly chanted Dalglish's name during the 2-1 defeat by Blackpool earlier this month but Hodgson considers the ambassador's work with the academy and scouting departments crucial to the future of the club and believes the days of in-fighting at Anfield are over.
"I'm not prepared to pass up on quality people who can help because of a fear the day may come the club decides they want Kenny as manager," Hodgson said.
"That wasn't the case in the summer, but that's not to say it won't be the case forever. I don't know. I have no fears in that respect because I know my qualities and I'm not a political person." He is doing a great job alongside us and we involve him in our scouting while he still works at The Academy and plays an ambassadorial role. That's what he's good at.
"You cannot find a better person for that than Kenny Dalglish. I told him I was disappointed he went for the manager's job because for me he should be working for Liverpool on a permanent basis, long after I leave for years to come assisting all future Liverpool managers."
