Peterborough United owner Darragh MacAnthony says Southampton boss Russell Martin should be considered for the Liverpool job.

MacAnthony is famously a big Liverpool fan.

"An outside shout would be I think somebody who's going to manage anyway at the top, and they wouldn't get a chance now, they would have to prove it, but would be Russell Martin," MacAnthony said on his podcast The Hard Truth.

I think when he takes Southampton up, and he finishes top half, with his style of play, I think bigger clubs will come in and take him."

Martin has Saints well placed for promotion from the Championship this season.
