The decision to not start Hamann in the UCL final against Milan was a controversial one

Dietmar “Didi” Hamman came on in the second half as a substitute for Steve Finnan which proved to be an abetment to Liverpool's fantastic turnaround. Immediately after the season, Hamman signed a pre-contract in June 2006 with Bolton Wanderers with whom he stayed for exactly a day before signing for Manchester City.

In 2010 he signed a one-year contract as a player-coach at MK Dons before joining Leicester City as a First Team Coach in February 2011.

In July 2011, Hamman was appointed manager of Conference Premier Club Stockport County. The German was enlisted by Irish Sports network RTE Sprts as an analyst and pundit before the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, Euro 2012 and the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.

He has also, subsequently, appeared on BBC's Match Of The Day and football coverage by Sky Sports especially to provide match analyses when Liverpool has a game scheduled. He is currently a football broadcaster and columnist.

He released his autobiography in 2012 and his first book titled “The Didi Man:My Love Affair With Liverpool” was a Sunday Times bestseller.
