From dog trainer to life coach – eight jobs Brendan Rodgers should seriously consider doing

"I've always said that you can live without water for many days, but you can’t live for a second without hope," Brendan Rodgers.

Now that the Northern Irishman is out of a job, we want him decided to play the role of his career guidance counsellor. Should Rodgers decide that he's had enough of the beautiful game, we want him to know that he's got other options that could better suit his skill-set. Well, by our count, he's got about eight options. 1. Life coach An obvious career path for the former Liverpool boss. He once said that he started coaching "for one reason and that was to make a difference for people, not just as footballers but as human beings." To truly make a difference in people's lives, Brendan, you can't just coach them at football, you have to coach them at life.   2. Postman At the beginning of the 2012/13 season, Rodgers made this startling revelation: "I think there’s three players who will let us down this year — the cause, the fight, everything – and I have written them down already in these three envelopes. Make sure you are not in one of the envelopes." 3. Casting director/actor/novelist etc Yep, you've probably already guessed the reasoning behind this. We'll give you one more cheap gag about his love of character and we promise that will be it. 4. Real Estate Agent Rodgers owns some property, some of which he has gotten into trouble over. Earlier this year, he was found guilty of neglecting his terrace house in Accrington for three years and allowing it to become derelict. Pfft... the courts may have seen a dilapidated property, but I reckon it was a building with character. 5. Stand-up comedian Whether the comedy is intentional or not, occasionally Rodgers will come out with absolute gold that would rival the work of some of the greatest comedy writers in the world. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WcGSVn13cc4 The comedy was better when it was unintentional. During his tenure at Anfield, it became apparent that Rodgers had been moonlighting as a statistician. "I've always worked along with the statistic that if you can dominate the game with the ball you have a 79% chance of winning the game." Why not turn your passion for crunching data and numbers into a full-time gig, Brendan? Not really sure how he could turn this talent into a paying job, but if he can find a way to monetise this sort of behaviour, he'll be set for life. “When we lost at Stoke last season I got home on Boxing Day night and family and guests were all around the house. I went straight upstairs to my room and didn’t come out.” “It’s not just about training players, it’s about educating players. You train dogs.” If he considers himself to be a failed educator, then maybe he should consider going back-to-basics and rebuild his career from there.
