# Carlo Ancelotti
One of only two managers to have won the Champions League or European Cup on three occasions -twice with AC Milan and once with Real Madrid – Ancelotti is the most experienced option out there, not to mention one of the most prolifically successful.
Moreover, the Italian could be relatively straightforward to entice. Having been sacked at Bayern Munich earlier this season, he is not under contract with any club, so negotiations could be relatively straightforward, while his knowledge of the English game is strong after a previous spell with Chelsea.
He won a league and cup double with the Stamford Bridge side in 2009-10 and has offered success in every country he has coached.
At only 58, he has plenty left in the tank and would see any potential move to Anfield as a fast track back to the top of the game.
What may count against Ancelotti is the conservative style that he has typically employed during his coaching career. Liverpool fans expect a cavalier brand of football to be played by their team and there would be concerns that the former Real Madrid boss would simply be too conservative for their tastes.
However, if it was to bring success, and dissent would surely die down rapidly.
