Liverpool FC - Talk /Gossip/Rumours 25/25

If you want an ex-liverpool player currently managing, then the choice is not good. It's Alonso or none of the above if that's the metric. Gerrard is a straight no. I mentioned his poor Villa record but forgot about his record in Saudi which was very similar in PPG as his Villa record.

From Reddit: Video of the Away fans leaving the stadium singing Alonso's song. If the away fans have turned, hopefully the powers that be feel the pressure to make a change.

It would literally be Gerrard life ambition at this point to manage Liverpool, he is not going to give it up easy, I don't expect he would be taking the job without some chance of staying at the helm. Someone who is already at the club or has done it before is nearly always the choice for a caretaker. We're talking about perhaps 10 games max.

One name I haven't seen floated yet, but could probably do the job for 10 games, King Kenny!

What players has Hughes signed that we are happy to write off already? I'd be fairly confident all of them will be here for a good few years and do well here.

If Salah wasn't renewed after the season he had and on top of losing TAA there'd have been uproar from the fan base. Renewing was the right decision at the time.

Ah Jesus, not Gerrard.

If we’re looking for someone to inspire these lads to a CL finish, it’s not the standout example of a manager underperforming with a PL squad. His tactics and man management were awful at Villa. Emery practically turned that team around overnight. Can’t imagine our team particularly care that he’s a club legend either.

And the fact that Gerrard so obviously wants the gig full time adds another potential wrinkle into the mix.

Today it's "City over performed their xG by a mile."

Whether that's an excuse or part of his endless stream of observations I don't know.

There was reports awhile back that Alonso’s exit package from Real Madrid prevented him managing another team this season. That’s why all the stories about him are he’s ready to come back at the start of the summer for whoever he ends up with.

Personally, I wouldn't let Gerrard anywhere near it - neither interim nor full-time. They guy is untested at the top level. Also, we need to put the sentimentality b0ll0cks aside too. Needs to be someone from outside.

No,not saying that at all. Hea done on on a malfunctioning team,but he's not been great either,and has developed a habit of giving away silly fouls.

The policy of not giving long term,expensive contracts to older players was largely poo pooed here last year though, but the policy has been largely proven correct given the fall off in mo in particular,but in Virgil as well

Yes people love him but that's as far as it goes we also need a manager to at least try and make sure we get CL and given his managerial experience i don't see that happening

Yes Belamy would be a no unless Wales FA let him manage up to the summer given there out of World Cup but that will not happen either.
