Liverpool icon Ian Rush has stated his belief that fellow Reds legend Graeme Souness would currently be counted among the best managers in the world if he had not taken the decision to swap coaching duties for punditry.
Souness, a former midfielder and head coach of the Anfield outfit, is widely regarded as one of the best players of his generation, winning five league titles and three European Cups during his time as part of Liverpool's engine room.
Following his transition into management, Souness went on to win three Scottish Premier Division titles with Rangers before returning to Merseyside, although his three-year stint in the Anfield dugout was not as successful as his time as a player.
