Gareth Taylor: Steering Liverpool's Ambitious Women's Squad

Gareth Taylor has been named the new head coach of Liverpool's women's team, the club announced on Friday. His appointment comes just five months after his departure from Manchester City. At City, Taylor secured FA Cup and League Cup victories and narrowly missed a Women's Super League title by goal difference in 2024.

Despite being dismissed by Manchester City for the team's underperformance, Taylor's impressive leadership skills make him a stellar choice for Liverpool. City finished fourth in the WSL last season, while Liverpool ended in seventh place. Taylor said he is excited about the potential at Liverpool and aims to develop a team that the supporters can be proud of.

Andy O'Boyle, the managing director of Liverpool's women's programme, praised Taylor's ability to build successful teams. Taylor is set to lead the squad in a friendly match against Aston Villa this Saturday, ahead of the Women's Super League season starting on September 6.
