“The fact is I’m not prepared to pass up on quality people, who can help the club and help us move forward, because I’m personally frightened.
“If the day comes and they decide they want Kenny Dalglish and not me then so be it. That wasn’t the case in the summer but that’s not to say it won’t be the case for ever.
“I don’t know. I don’t have any fears in that respect, though. I know what I can bring to the job. I know what qualities I have.
“I’m not a political person and I’m not frightened of those things.
“At the moment he is doing a very good job alongside us and we involve him very much in our scouting.
“I always said to Kenny when it was mooted that Liverpool wanted me for the job that, if I got it, he would be very much on board with me.
“It won’t be the question it was with Benitez that you are here in name but you are never allowed to set foot in Melwood – and basically we don’t want anything to do with you.
“I told him that wouldn’t be the case.
“I want to tap into as much as possible all the things that you can bring.
“Not least of all his legendary and iconic status.
“But one of the things he can really help us with on a very practical basis day-to-day is that, when there are a lot of matches to cover, he can do that for us.
“He has a good eye and he knows exactly what we’re looking for.
“When he goes to games he can come back and say, ‘Yes I like the player’ – or ‘No’. That’s really good information.
“And, of course, he still works and does a lot with the younger players down at the academy.
“He also plays an ambassadorial role, which he was brought in to do.
“For me they are the things he’s very good at. That’s why I told him I was disappointed he applied for the manager’s job – because I didn’t think that was ever going to really happen for him.
“Whereas the other role, you couldn’t find a better person in the world to do that job for Liverpool than Kenny Dalglish.
“He should be doing that for me and other managers when I leave. He should be doing it for years to come. His job should be a permanent one.
“I don’t know about his ambitions. You can understand it’s not something I discuss with him and say, ‘Do you want my job?’”
It’s clear to see that Hodgson is entirely at ease with the situation and was delighted they got their heads together at Wigan, checking out opposing players.
Hodgson added: “He didn’t have to go to the game but he asked me if he could come with me. I was delighted and he even insisted on driving, which is always nice, because I don’t like driving.
“Now we move on together. We all want success for this club and, when we get it right, it will be great again.
“Seeing us at the bottom or very near the bottom is the last thing anyone wants.
“We are gutted by that and we know we have upset many supporters.
“I have got to ask them for a bit of patience and understanding because the situation we find ourselves in doesn’t get put right overnight.”

His pot shots at Rafa is ridiculous...Rafa was the one that offered Kenny the chance to have a role at Anfield. Despite what he claims I really do think that he is threatened by Kenny. No other reason he would be talking this much about this...
Oh dear... he's done it again 
I wonder if he reaises that Rafa brought kenny back 
May be he's losing it a bit.. dementia 
THE BRENDAN REVOLUTION IS UPON US !
KING KENNY.. Always LEGEND !
RAFA.. MADE THE PEOPLE HAPPY !
