Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech has revealed he was surprised Liverpool did not offer Steve Clarke the chance to take over at Anfield following the departure of Kenny Dalglish.
Clarke was part of Dalglish's backroom staff at Liverpool, but when the Reds parted ways with the Scot, the former-Swansea boss Brendan Rodgers was hired by the Anfield hierarchy.
But Cech reckons Liverpool missed out by overlooking Clarke, who spent more than 10 years at Stamford Bridge as a coach.
"I was surprised that it took people so long before he actually got the job because I would have thought that he might have got his chance already when he was at Liverpool," said the Chelsea keeper in the Fulham Chronicle.
Liverpool instead turned to Rodgers, although Wigan boss Roberto Martinez was also reportedly considered.
