Jamie Carragher has dismissed notions that he is a certainty to become a football manager one day.

The Reds centre-back, who enjoyed a 35,682 turn-out for his testimonial at the weekend, has long been linked with a future in coaching due to his encyclopaedic knowledge of the game.

Carra himself isn't convinced he'll end up as boss of a club when his playing career ends, but if he does, he knows which of his former managers he'd be most similar to in style.

"If I did become a manager, of all the ones I've had, I'd probably be most similar in style to Gerard Houllier," Carragher told LFC Weekly. "He used to lose his temper a little bit - I think I'd lose mine as well.

"Everybody thinks that I'm 100 per cent going to be a manager, but I'm not certain. You only have to look at Roy Hodgson to see that some of them have to go all over the world here, there and everywhere.

"I have a young family and I'm not sure whether they'd appreciate that. I'm not sure either whether I'd enjoy it because I like being at home in Liverpool close to everyone I know."

Carragher has had some big-name managers to pick up tips from throughout his career and his recent experience at the World Cup helped him see at close quarters how Fabio Capello operates.

"You just pick up little things - how they react in certain situations," Carra continued. "There were a lot of things happening at the World Cup and it was interesting to see how he dealt with pressure rather than from a football or tactical side. Capello's a brilliant coach. You only have to look at his CV to appreciate that."
