The Hunt for Klopp’s Successor

I have already gone on record that they will fuck it up (the new manager selection), so I will be at your mercy when they succeed

Since we missed out on Xabi the only one I want is Ange. I know it’s not going to happen.

I don’t like Tuchel. Don’t want him here but still 100% sure we’d win trophies under him in the next two years.

Bring him home is what I say… Don’t forget, his Dad was a Scouser :0)

I don’t have any strong opinion on him - but jumping from Portugal to Liverpool seems a big step to me and all the stuff about how he’s the best man manager, a master of tactics etc. is all things we’ve heard before about the likes of Villas-Boas, Martinez, de Boer, Juande Ramos and countless others.

Make no mistake, I think he has the potential to be a brilliant manager but yes he does give Villas-Boas vibes…Who would be your choice and why since Xabi is out of the picture

That was my feeling, although there were co-ordinated announcements with both coaching staff and directors. I’m pretty sure that would not have happened unless they were sure of who they were after.

There doesn’t appear to be an obvious choice to me, nobody that will appeal to the fan base anyway.
Emery or Ange aren’t coming, why would Villa or Spurs even allow them to speak with us? It’s all a bit concerning.

I could see Amorim as a perfect fit for West Ham. That’s an interesting new step for him.

Seems to me that managers like Alonso and Amorim don’t want to have to fill Jurgen’s shoes. It’s easier to stay where you are or take a job with less pressure for immediate success. It’s the same issue that Man U faced when replacing Fergie.

Yes, my guess is it was a swing for Xabi with the other links being an attempt to cover/ limit the awkwardness if it failed.

They almost certainly had preferred options, though they likely didn’t start reaching out to candidates until after Klopp’s departure was publicly disclosed and after Edwards was hired. Until they do that, it doesn’t matter who’s on their preferred list - they don’t know who actually would come here.

if push comes to shove, I vote for @Walshy07 as manager, @Sithbare and @Iftikhar as assistant managers, @cynicaloldgit as the performance coach. @The-AllMightyReds as the teams mascot and @Alright_Now_Legend to wash the players jocks after games.

Can I at least request that me and @Alright_Now_Legend switch positions?
