First and foremost, the report on The S*n was utterly bullshit, saying Kenny Dalglish demands full control of transfer in his contract talk. While ESPN Soccernet do a rip-off from The S*n article – which quotes, “I don’t know. I've never asked - maybe goal-line technology will be in first!”
“I will stick to what I said from the beginning: if Kenny is not happy with a player we think could make the team better then it's always down to the manager. That hasn't changed.” – quotes Damien Comolli.
Well, back then Comolli was the Director of Football Strategy for Liverpool Football Club. He got promoted to Director of Football in March and we are not sure what are his level of control over the transfer policy for the club? But it got to be make sense and logical to the public and the football club, any person on the board of director will have the power to decides or approved a transfer for any manager and vice-versa.
When Kenny Dalglish mentioned about working together with Damien Comolli on securing a transfer target in his interview. It strike sense that in the modern football, a manager role can get quite stressful and demand a lot of the manager’s time.
“Forget transfers and talk about the position Damien has,”
“There is so much demand on a manager's time that it is important to have someone actively organising people, going to see other teams for reports on matches or individual players.
“Having conversations daily with people in the game and seeing what the movement of players are and then reporting back to the manager so the two of them can make a decision.
“I think it is a fantastic help and I don't have a problem with Damien.” – quotes Kenny Dalglish.
The speculation of Kenny Dalglish demanding a full control over the club’s transfer policy in his contract talk with FSG doesn’t make any sense at all. So what is held up on handing Kenny Dalglish the permanent role?
From my point of view, FSG has offered Dalglish a very short-term contract. Possible a two-years offer – in term, Dalglish was not appeased or maybe additional clauses are to be discussed for a longer contract negotiation. No one in this world who understand deeply and so passionately about Liverpool Football Club other than Kenny Dalglish himself.
Managing Liverpool Football Club is a long term project. If a manager has given a certain period of time to organized his team and with the support from the owners, it would be a waste of time and stubborn decision for not giving Kenny Dalglish the full-time job next season.
