Glen Johnson Decides Against Liverpool Move After Hodgson Exit

The right-back is rumoured to have fallen out with the former Reds boss earlier in the season and had been linked with a January move to Spain but will take his chance under Kenny Dalglish.

The Anfield legend was installed as the new Liverpool manager until the end of the season at the weekend.

In his first game in charge on Sunday, Liverpool lost to Manchester United in the third round of the FA Cup, thanks to a controversial first minute penalty by Ryan Giggs.

Johnson also made the headlines during the weekend after launching an astonishing Twitter attack against former Arsenal player Paul Merson.

After Merson criticized his attitude during this season on Sky Sports’ Soccer Saturday, the Liverpool defender took to Twitter to respond to the criticism.

‘Comments from alcoholic drug abusers are not really gonna upset me and who is Paul Merson to judge players, he was average at the best of times,’ Johnson posted.

’The only reason he's on that show is coz he gambled all his money away. The clown!’

The post though was later deleted by the Liverpool defender.
