HUDDERSFIELD TOWN HIRE FORMER U.S. INTERNATIONAL WAGNER FROM BVB
English second-division side Huddersfield Town have appointed former Borussia Dortmund II coach and U.S. international David Wagner as their new manager.
Wagner, 44 replaces former Charlton manager and player Chris Powell who was sacked on Wednesday following Huddersfield 2-2 away draw with Reading. He was expected to join Liverpool’s coaching staff following ‘close friend’ Jürgen Klopp’s arrival as Liverpool manager. He was also best man at Klopp’s wedding.
It is understood Huddersfield academy Mark Lillis will be in charge for the teams Championship Saturday Derby fixture against Leeds, with Wagner taking the reins on Monday. He played for a number of clubs, including Eintracht Frankfurt, Mainz, (where he first got to know his big mate Klopp), and Schalke. One of his Schalke teammates, Thomas Dooley, like Wagner also a German-American, recommended Wagner to then-USMNT Coach Steve Sampson as a potential international. Wagner, born in Geinsheim am Rhein of an American father and German mother, went on to earn eight caps for the Americans. The former striker holds a UEFA Pro Licence from his first coaching job at Hoffenheim Under 17s.
Huddersfield chairman Dean Hoyle stated: “David’s football philosophy is directly in line with ours; he fits for what we need. It is a new departure for us. He will be head coach; he is the club’s first from outside the UK and Ireland and he brings a new approach and new ideas. He also added: In his own words, and as we hope will be seen in practice, his playing style echoes the one that has brought Borussia Dortmund such success over the last five years.”
The former Dortmund Under-23 boss quits after 4 years in charge, he helped the reserve side to promotion to the German third tier back in 2013, but they were relegated back in to the regionalised fourth tier last year.
Jamie Vardy has more goals than Chelsea have points.
I'm struggling to let that sink in

REDS 'AGREE' PATO DEAL
Liverpool have agreed to sign Alexandre Pato in January, according to Corinthians president Roberto de Andrade, reports the Daily Star.
De Andrade has revealed that the deal is all-but done, while Italian outlet tuttomercato.web say the Brazilian will cost £14.3million.
"There is an agreement in principle with Liverpool for the transfer in the coming weeks,” he said. “Pato had long expressed a desire to return to Europe.
"Liverpool await, there are a few missing details, but Klopp will have a new reinforcement and for Pato the Premier League will be a new springboard."
Pato has been a target for Manchester United, Tottenham and West Ham in previous transfer windows.
falcao and torres weren't really the same players after their injuries.
You might see some flashes of old torres, but it's now and then, not consistent to say he's the player he used to be. Falcao hasn't shown any of that imo.
From what I've read, Pato's having a good season with Sao Paulo as a winger.
He's only 26 as well...
Not a bad investment for liverpool if they can get him for cheap.
He's proven in europe and has found new form. I'm clueless as far as how they would implement him in their lineup.
Do liverpool need wingers?
