Need to go after Rijkaard if available.
Unless he's given unlimited transfer funds so that he can sign about half a dozen much needed players, then Rijkaard shouldn't get anywhere near the Liverpool job for the moment.
The Hodgson appointment actually made sense in a roundabout way.....The board had obviously seen that Benitez's squad was a poor one, being held together by 2 or 3 good players. They probably also knew that they didn't have the funds to get the much needed quality back into it, thus they appointed somebody who had a record of getting the best out of, to put it politely, average players.
Unfortunately, Hodgson has been unable to get any consistancy from this bunch....The main problem I see, is that there are certain players who think they are a lot better than they actually are.....I think if he was at a smaller club, with less expectation, then Hodgson would be well within his rights to ask for a good 2-3 years before being judged, while he got the chance to get rid of some of the rubbish that is at the club and to bring in players who are up for a scrap, rather than players who seem to think because they are Liverpool they have a divine right to win.
Sadly for Hodgson, he's now lost the fans and I don't see any way back for him....If, and I'm not saying they should, get rid of Hodgson, then only 1 man fits the present Anfield bill and that's Martin O'Neil....He knows the scene and he doesn't take egos very well.
