Liverpool news. Ancelotti has talked with LFC directly or indirectly through his agent, and FSG seem to want him to take over. Rodgers is a dead-man walking, and known he is gone. Ancelotti is however, only available in a couple of months (right now he is London with Beckham and others with a project), so we have to put up with Brendan "The Fraud" Rodgers for a little while yet. However, if Liverpool lose badly at Everton this weekend, Mike Gordon might just fire the Fraud and ask Garry Mac and Sean O'Driscoll to take charge until Ancelotti, or whoever else they have talked to is ready.
For all of Klopp's people linking him to LFC and the papers linking him to LFC, FSG has shown no interest in Klopp as of now which is strange for me because they approached Klopp in the first place in 2012 before going for Rodgers the Fraud.
Here is hoping FSG concrete their interest in Ancelotti and sign him up soon.
FSG will make money available within reason, but the problem is they backed the wrong man - Rodgers has spend over £300 million and has pissed most of it up the wall. Even if they make money available to the new man, money cannot be spend like Rodgers did because they are restricted by FFP.
Ancelotti and Klopp are both happy to work with a DoF or a Sporting Director, which is what Rodgers refused to work with in the first place. I think a DoF would be probably be a best way forward working closely with the "Head Coach", and they need to get rid of the Transfer Committee.
The stadium is coming along nicely. The main stand has had significant work done on it, and they will increase the capacity within the next year. If FSG stays beyond 2017 (a good time to sell because of another increase in TV money increasing the brand value of LFC), they will increase the capacity again, probably to somewhere around 60,000. It will be almost impossible to increase beyond that as then it will require other facilities to be put in place, so in the foreseeable future, I expect Anfield to be around 60,000.
