Steven Gerrard has praised Liverpool's appointment of Roy Hodgson as their new manager, saying the club had appointed the "right man".
"The club has made a good appointment in Roy Hodgson," the captain told the Liverpool website. "[The former manager] Rafa [BenÃtez] left a few weeks ago and I know the club were determined to take their time and get the right man for the job.
"Roy is hugely experienced and I believe he is the right man for Liverpool. I think it's been worth the wait and I'm sure he's just keen now to get on with it and start to quickly put in place his plans for the new season."
Gerrard's future will be one of Hodgson's most pressing concerns over the next few days, with the captain – along with other key players such as the midfielder Javier Mascherano and the striker Fernando Torres – having been linked with a move away from the club.
