Ex-Liverpool, Fulham midfielder Murphy targets management

Former Liverpool and Fulham midfielder Danny Murphy admits he's thinking about management.

Murphy will complete his UEFA 'B' Licence in November and, coupled with his growing profile as a media pundit, has a firm desire to go into management and coaching.

"I'm sure that managing is easier than coaching," Murphy told the Daily Mail. "Being able to put on good sessions and improve a team, that's tough and that's what I want to do.

"I was a thinker and a talker but I think I became better at helping others around me in a team shape. That's a rare quality in players now, that leadership. Everyone gets on with their own job a little bit more now and I think teams miss that."
