Harry shooting down the idea of bringing in an ex player with minimal experience like his team didn’t hire Peps come boy

Xabi alonso seems the perfect fit

Great chat lads. Great points 👉

Arsen Wenger was SACKED Harry try to spin it again , and teta the coneman is good enough for Arsenal but Alonso isnt for Liverpool makes no sense from Arsenal fans

i believe liverpool will need someone with charisma and the ability to inspire everyone, players and fans and board

It amazes me that people are talking about LFC's search for Klopp's replacement as if it has only just begun; they've had 3-months notice already and the fact that they've now gone public (and decided to move on from Lijnders and Schmadtke) suggests that they've probably already identified their main candidates, had a positive response from them and are in serious negotiations. They may have even sewn the whole thing up more or less but are being cautious/respectful...

Hansi Flick is someone that would be good, but doesn't get much of a mention

Personality and compatibility with the club fans and ethos are a key factor! That’s why personally I’m not so sure about de zerbi, but someone like this as Frank might suit the club more! All that is if Alonso is not the first choice.

DOF is just as important if not more. Edwards + Xabi would be exciting.

How much managerial experience did pep have prior to takjng the barca job? Sometimes managers, especially special ones are just destined for greatness. Xabi could be that guy too. Wealth of experience as a player under top coaches

Thank you Harry, I have been saying Simone Inzaghi to some of my fellow reds and none seem keen. I liked him at Lazio, and he is doing alright at Inter. He'd be my choice.

Panel sleeping on the Portuguese guy. He's the other obvious fit after Alonso and yes, Ange.

Pep Lijnders should be the next manager. Klopp had said he's the one who has been the tactician behind the scenes. The players could carry on playing as they are. If it doesn't work then try to get Klopp back or at least don't jump the gun with Alonso. Stevie G had one good season, even in the Europa League, but then flopped badly. Alonso is introverted as well as inexperienced and I don't see him being a big enough personality for us. Liverpool fans need to stop obsessing over ex players and think with their heads.

Xabi Alonso is the rising star , unfortunetly rising stars scare me in that they have no real body of work to back them up. I like Tomas Frank - he is tactically astute , will play the team similar to Klopp initially and most importantly , his players love him.

Scott's mad eg. "Salah almost left last season" "VVD said he's unsure". This is the bullshit narratives from the punditry and not what's actually been said or happened. Also, it doesn't make sense for them to not treat Ljinders as leaving with the backroom staff for now but that doesn't mean he's not being considered.

Onward to a quad ;0)

Rival fans proving that they don't really understand what it is to be a Liverpool fan and what we want. Grizz representing it well though

I want ange personally but can’t see levy letting him go..

Funny how harry and Scott were a lot quieter in front of an ex Chelsea pro compared to when it’s just them in terms of Chelsea chat

Grizz trying to use cheeky sayings is so corky lol

Arsenal fan Alonso only linked cause he played for them, just like Arteta at Arsenal then you fool.

Thomas Frank has more chance than a lot of people are giving him.

Real Madrid and Bayern both want Alonso to be their next manager! Take emotion out of it he’s the most exciting young manager with a distinct lack of alternatives!

Any German would do for gegenpressing

Question - for Grizz, would you take Slot from feyenoord?

Objectively Nagelsman is a better candidate than Alonso.

Xavi Barcelona coach for me he won laliga last year financial trouble Barcelona..

Man Utd haven’t recovered from Ferguson leaving.

Xaabi Alonso Se Zerbi and even Nagelsmann to an extent would be good appointment byt not Thomas Frank

Perhaps more teams will understand what happened to Chelsea - having lost their board, manager, all staff and getting the whole business shut. It does take time to reappear again. Hate all you like, but it takes time. No amount of hiring or cash fixes it. It is just a graft.

1-1 is a good result for liverpool at home against a mid table team? no if that happens, City go above us... so no that is not a good result..

I completely disagree with Harry's notion that there is a demand on LFC's next manager to be successful instantly; even with the benefit of Klopp's magic, LFC have finished behind Man City more often than not. I personally do not expect whoever comes in next to change that instantly - and part of the attraction of Alonso is that, his ties to LFC will grant him a greater degree of patience. I also think that the shadow of Man City and Pep are being overlooked here - both in the role they have played in Klopp's decision (chasing them down fruitlessly has clearly taken it's toll in Klopp) and the expectation that will be placed on his successor as a result. Most LFC fans will be thinking "If Klopp can't overcome Pep, what hope has a less experienced coach like Alonso/Di Zerbi/Frank etc?" Personally, I think the attitude needs to be: Pep (and perhaps De Bruyne and Haaland) will most likely go in the next couple of years so now is the time to start planning to take advantage when that happens. Arsenal seem pretty well placed to do so, having backed (and shown patience with) a young, inexperienced coach, so it makes sense for LFC to do the same. Besides, there's simply nobody out there who has anything close to the profile that Klopp had when he arrived.

No to big ange with all due respect. Yes to xabi Alonso

Thomas frank 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 we are Liverpool not watford fc

The Alonso situation snookers Liverpool fans when it comes to Klopps legacy. Either one of the following are true, but it cant be both: - Klopp is a world class, generational manager (as LFC fans have been arguing for years), and that no manager can match his standard, meaning a downgrade is coming without doubt no matter how good Alonso is - a hard pill to swallow for LFC fans. - Klopp is merely a 'good' manager (as some rival fans would argue), and that more credit is owed to FSG and the setup they have created to support their manager (who will go on to support Alonso, and ensure a smooth transition between managers) - which is the hope/expectation i am noticing from LFC fans this week.

First lol

This is why I never agree with Grizz as a Liverpool fan Thomas Frank is not good enough or plays attractive football or has the mindset to be a Liverpool manager

Stop acting like someone as died for god sake

My god joe cole is a crap bais pundit

Why not just get pep off city? Tell him to get off the sinking ship. He can experience a real trophy parade
