Former Liverpool manager Gerard Houllier has died at the age of 73.

The Frenchman managed the Reds from 1998-2004 and led them to five major trophies, including the FA Cup, League Cup and Uefa Cup treble in 2000-01.

Prior to Liverpool, Houllier managed Lens, Paris St-Germain and the French national team, and after leaving the Reds won two Ligue 1 titles at Lyon.

His last managerial job was at Aston Villa, but he left in 2011 after nine months, following heart problems.



A proper true gentleman of the game. Never a bad word for anyone.

That win in Istanbul must be thee biggest comeback in any football final. May you rest in peace Sir.

A very knowledgeable and skilful football manager but more importantly a genuinely decent man.
