He might have left Liverpool without a trophy to his name, but Brendan Rodgers’ stock hasn’t fallen too much.
Or, depending on how you look at it, the 42-year-olds stock has fallen so far in such a short space of time that his name is among those expected to be on the shortlist for the England job if Roy Hodgson leaves his post after Euro 2016.
Hodgson’s fate will rest on England’s performance at the tournament, with the Daily Telegraph reporting that the FA are keen on a homegrown replacement.
This doesn’t necessarily mean an English manager, which means Rodgers, as well as Everton boss Roberto Martinez, would be in the running alongside the likes of Gareth Southgate, Gary Neville, Alan Pardew and Garry Monk.
Rodgers has previously expressed his interest in one day managing the English national team, though he may feel he has unfinished business at club level before he moves to what is essentially a part-time gig.
Whether or not he’d want to manager Raheem Sterling again in a hurry is also up for debate.
