He'll probably end up at Newcastle now...
"that's good timing, isn't it? telling me that today. the day of laughter. brilliant."
"i'm going to love to see you telling that lot, because you'll have a mutiny. they will go berserk. definitely."

SIEG HEIL!!!
I always hated his annoying one arm salute whenever Liverpool scored, thank god I wint have to see it anymore.
He was perfect and whether it was him talking or his team playing, you could be guaranteed it would be a load of shit. Gone but never forgotten. May he Walk Alone in peace.
Through adversity to the stars, Brendan.
"Stone the bloody crows, you could've told me I was for the tin-tack before I did the soddin' press conference - I look a right tart now, don't I? All that shit I said about feeling secure, then you bastards pull the lever and I'm through the trapdoor and into the shark pool! I'll never get a proper job now...*sniffles*"
Not a bad shout actually I could see that happening if he wants to jump straight back into it.

this is rogers, he'll be waiting by the phone for bayern to react to the news and get rid of pep for him.
And 50/1 next Barcelona manager
@ItsEssexRob Get in here and put some money on him NOT ending up at Barca.
Rodgers the Catalan would be the best thing in football since Ernst Happel scored a deliberate own goal because he had bet his GK that he'd concede that day.
"And the Dalai Lama says, 'Oh, uh, there won't be any money, but when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness.' So I got that goin' for me, which is nice."
Jokes aside, his weight loss is really impressive.
"Jokes aside, my weight loss is really impressive."
He is/was really full of shit,what a genius.
"I use a quote with the players,'Bald wird mein Ausstand gefeiert', which is German for "My farewell party will soon be celebrated", but "Ausstand" literally translates to "outstand". So overall me and the players have been outstanding, really."
What a man
"Quitters never win, winners never quit. But those who never win and never quit are idiots".
" Lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part"
"There may be no "I" in team, but there's a "ME" if you look hard enough"
"Know your limitations and be content with them. Too much ambition results in promotion to a job you can't do.

"I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion; I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost, in time, like tears in rain. Time to die."
"Listen, love, I don't know whether you've heard but Liverpool have sacked me....love? Love? Shit."
BR to LvG: "Premier League is difficult"
I already miss him
"If that day ever comes, be it at 39, 49 or 59, it won’t be a case of me wondering whether I can work at that level. I have earned the respect of the biggest names in the game, both as a human being and as a coach."
"Do you want fries with that?"
"they'll find it difficult to attract the top players without champions league football. THEY KNOW THAT"

"History judges you as a manager, that’s the reality of it. So it won’t be now, it will be history – and I hope history will allow me to walk alongside some of the great managers here."
"I don't look upon this like it's the end, I look upon it like it's moving on you know. It's almost like my work here's done.
I can't imagine Jesus going 'Oh, I've told a few people in Bethlehem I'm the son of God, can I just stay here with Mum and Dad now?' No. You gotta move on. You gotta spread the word. You gotta go to Nazareth, please. And that's, very much like... me.
My world does not end within these four walls, England's a big place. And when I've finished with Liverpool, there's Reading, Aldershot, Bracknell, you know I've got to-Sunderland, Milwall. You know. Because I am my own boss, I can wake up one morning and go 'Ooh, I don't feel like working today, can I just stay in bed?' 'Ooh, don't know, better ask the boss.' 'Brendan can I stay in bed all day?' 'Yes you can Brendan.'
Both me, that's not me in bed with another bloke called Brendan."

"I want to use the incredible support to make coming to Anfield the longest 90 minutes of an opponent’s life."
To be fair, one season aside, you didn't have to see it very often. he was good like that.
'Character, character, character. These are the three things that I expect you to give me. Now you might be saying "but Brendan, you handsome bastard, those are the same things". No.
No, no, no. Because, you see, the first character is determination, the second character is drive, and the third character is effort. I expect to see you go out there and give me all three... I see a lot of you are looking at me in confusion, so let me put it simply. It was Artistotle who said that "It is the mark of an educated man to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it". I don't think Aristotle is all that great personally, because he's never played with five at the back as well as I have, but I can admit that he knows a lot - maybe as much as even I do - about thinking. And I think that you have the strength of belief to go out there and overturn this five-nil loss.
Remember; when you're old and tired, you should be able to look back at what you achieved today with pride. Even if we don't win you should be able to proudly tell your grandchildren that you once gave your all in the third round of the Yorkshire Nurseries Regional Cup. Now let's go out there and feck those bastards up. Go for their fecking shins!'

Love it.Though it's totally ruined my love for that scene now, imaging Big Bad Bren saying it.
I quite like Brendan, he's like that hipster friend who keeps reading stuff like "Inverting the pyramid" and leadership books by Rinus Michaels and tells you that you are wasting your time watching United vs Liverpool or El Clasico when the "real rivalry" is River Plate vs Boca Juniors or Partizan Belgrade vs Red Star. He seems like a nice bloke at heart, just loves himself too much.
Now Liverpool are going from the Irish hipster to the German version.
