We asked for your views on whether James Milner would be a good addition to the coaching staff at Liverpool after he announced his retirement earlier this week.

If you scroll down this page you can read Brighton CEO Paul Barber explain the demands for standards Milner placed upon him during his time with the Seagulls. "He was absolutely not satisfied with anything we did," explained Barber.

Here are some of your comments:

Ian: What a great shout! I would take Milner all day long. What a fantastic asset he would be for the team and he wouldn't tolerate anyone giving less than 100%. Get him in now.

Simon: Milner's always been an absolute professional, willing to slot in in any position and give 100% effort for 100% of the match. It's always been easy to see him becoming a top coach/manager and I think we could do a lot worse than get him in now, let him get some coaching experience, and see where things go.

David: James would be a massive asset to the club. Those of us who have followed him at Liverpool know he will not accept anything less than 100%. All the younger players would look up to him simply because of his reputation.

Les: Without doubt, James Milner as part of an Andoni Iraola management structure plus Steven Gerrard would be appealing to all Liverpool supporters.

Steve: Great call. Milner is hugely respected within the game for his application and professionalism and will be a great enforcer for the new manager.

Pacman: Having Millie there would be a good influence and might help avoid the inevitable disaster of appointing an inexperienced manager like Iraola.

Roy: Milner has a great football mind and comes across as really intelligent. He would provide a link to the Klopp era that would complement and support Iraola's style and he could easily develop into a future homegrown manager.
