Steve Cooper did not want Danilo, Emmanuel Dennis, Mangala, Freuler, Bowler, Scarpa, Navas, Dominguez, Tavares, Montiel or Divock Origi.
Everyone of those signings were down to owner Evangelos Marinakis.
What a shit way to run a football club. 😬

I don’t think Gerrard will get another big job again for a long time. Not sure how true this is but I heard a while ago that the players hated him and he lost the dressing room ages ago. Apparently a manager who constantly brags about what he done in his playing career.

He offered himself again just after Poya Asbaghi got sacked.
