LB: Steve Staunton
The respected defender had something of a peripatetic career.
He excelled at Aston Villa before moving to Liverpool in 1998, having previously been let go by the club. He was eventually released on a free transfer as Houllier looked to shuffle his options.
Staunton steadily dropped down the league ladder, and despite being a respected Ireland international—making over 100 appearances for the national side—he flopped as manager, and was fired after less than two years in charge.
He was last employed by Sunderland as a scout, but left the club in 2013.
