Hughes got rid of O'Neil as he saw he could get a better manager. No way Hughes is now gonna turn around and say he is a liverpool manager

what the fuck are we doing lads

Someone last week commented that Neil Jones doesn’t say anything that everybody doesn’t already know & now I can’t stop thinking it every time he talks 😂

The fact Redmen made a segment of Gary Fucking O' Neill has me depressed. 😭

I feel like with managers you aren’t really gonna know if they’re good enough until they get the job. Like if you said there’s this player that’s managing Mainz, you wouldn’t even consider him for a prem job let alone for Liverpool. That’s where klopp started. Just have faith and don’t write people off so easy

We Need Somebody That’s Going To Make Players Want To Come To Liverpool.

This would be another Rodgers but will end badly even quicker

Scraping the barrel.....seems a bit of desperation mind set going for O'Neil

Will get behind and support whoever gets the job BUT this is not looking good. No disrespect to O’Neil but if we are seriously considering him then we are setting our sights low. At the very least the manager incoming should have success on their resume ie winning trophies either here or abroad.

Rather take Stevie then these other names we have been linked with... whats going on!? Gary O'Neil? Mourinho? Slotter? Mike Bassett?

After reading this comment section, I’m quite looking forward to the Gary O’Neil era.

It’s so clear Fsg and edwards want a yes man. They clearly want to go down the red bull route where the DOF’s are more important than the manager. That don’t fucking win you trophies tho does it! The main issue is from the top, always. Fsg don’t want to win trophies cos it cost them in bonuses. They’re happy with top 4. It’s not a secret. Amorim has everything we need in a manager and he’s apparently not the right one. Then what the fuck are we looking for? Oh yeh, probably a manager that won’t cost us a big buyout and a manager who always says “yes sir.”

The latest news is that Amorim will NOT join West Ham, and he's just asked Liverpool FC for improved financial terms. Allegedly he wants a 3-year contract and 10m net a year. If true, it means he's just using West Ham as a bargaining chip to improve his future contract at Liverpool. If true, I wouldn't want someone like that to manage Liverpool.

"He's less qualified than Brendan Rodgers"...? What does it mean to be "qualified" here? How can we know? Some appointments work, others don't. For example, was Guardiola "qualified" when Barca appointed him in 2008? He had no prior experience, yet he has turned out to be a fantastic manager. You never really know.

I’m afraid we are victims of klopps success and our love for him. Amorin,Alonso haven’t experienced the premiership as managers, plus they are both young and in the latter , West Ham probably fits his entry into the league and a stepping stone. I said Gary O’Neil weeks ago and got told to F off , remember he’s had / having premier league experience & I wouldn’t be at all surprised if we aren’t interested , plus he has nothing to lose

Arne Slot is leading candidate for the job reporting by Paul Joyce 👀

No he isn’t it’s as simple as that.

A Wolves side who sold all their best players and where tipped for relegation and now behind everyone's beloved De Zerbi by a point. He knows the club and has improved every single Wolves player. Inzaghi for me should be number 1 won everything bar champions League with Inter and works on a strict budget.

Hansi Flick also not a bad choice for liverpool if Amorim not joining

You have to trust Edwards with whatever he does. One thing for sure, people in the KZfaq comments and Twitter will not be able to have a nuanced conversation about this 😂.

What's the difference between O'Neil and Amorim? at least O'Neil has midtable premier league experience, this is making Gerrard more attractive.

I’m all for choosing someone who isn’t one of the hipster’s choices like Amorim or Motta… but Gary O’Niel? Jesus Christ

Fuck no, I'd rather have Gerrard!

I think we should go for Tuchel, probably a stop gap until the managerial landscape changes, but will keep us competitive in the interim.

O'Neill says a bit about where the club's mindset is, even with Slot it does a little bit. But unfortunately not a lot of solid, good options out there

I know O'Neil worked for liverpool when klopp first came in so has a understanding of the club so maybe he's a short term option that Hughes and Edwards are looking at till they get the guy they want long term

Let's not lose our heads about this. No one outside the club know what's really happening, the club hired Klopp, they'll hire a manager that suits our status and trophies we're aiming for!

How the mighty have fallen Gary o Neil

Did we really went from Xabi to Amorim then to GARY O'NEIL?! Oh my days we are screwed..

The problem with Klopp going is wrong timing. There literally aren’t any fresh elite managers out there it’s quite a poor state of affairs because most are at the beginning of plying their trade still only 1 or 2 clubs managed in to their careers so this is a vital decision for the club and could backfire massively. Obvs Edwards and Hughes will be studying but the only two realistic choices had to have been Alonso and Amorim because let me tell you Gary o Neil managing us or even being mentioned true or not true says not a lot of options really. You honestly reckon most of those players at the club will want to work with o Neil full time and long term? I don’t think so. Hopefully it’s Amorim and the West Ham rumours are just false.

I'd rather we bring in Gerrard now. It could be a win win scenario. If he does well fantastic, but if its a shitshow we could go back for Alonso the following season.

Anyone else looking forward to the UEFA Conference League qualification battle with United next season. Holy F!!!

Rafa , Ged , J K all won a big domestic title before moving to the #Reds . Roy Evans , B R , Woy didn't .

Imagine we're still in January and we somehow get a brief glimpse into the future and catch this clip! FFS

I'll say this for Gary - until he took over @ B'mouth, Solanke was going nowhere and doing nothing and now he's playing something like the very talented player he promised to be when he was in our youths, and I credit him with that. When he was a player, I'd hoped we'd sign him; not as a 1st 11 but as a reliable sub, because he was very clever and usually did the simple things very well (something we were in short supply of at the time). Maybe in the future, but not yet.

Get Jose M in on a 1 year deal until Xabi Alonso is ready . Jose to steady the ship until Xabi is ready and available

It’s like we are back before klopp came in.

Antonio Conte top secret for manager his ship is in liverpool.

I've heard that it's Pep Lijnders as he has not signed with Ajax and Bekitas but they are keeping it a secret for now.

As long as we don’t get Moyes. 😱

Who we speaking to next?? Mark Robins?

A Key issue here is Edwards is data driven, that never works when selecting managers. Data only points to 30% of a picture, it never shows complexity of issues . Xavi is quitting Barcelona, and has proven himself wining La Liga with no budget. Miguel Ángel Sánchez of Girona, 3 seasons in La Liga, no budget, 14,0000 capacity ground, will finish 3rd in La Liga, was up there till 4 weeks ago. You still have Dortmund Manager Edin Terzić , use to managing big club with 80,000 capacity crowds. Picking managers from prem league outside top 5, is road to disaster

I'm confused on why everyone is saying Almorim won't come to Liverpool now?

Got a horrible feeling we are looking for a stop gap manager while we wait for Xabi.

I do like O’Neil as a manager he has done well BUT don’t think he is ready or right for Liverpool….my preferences are Alonso, Amorim, Motta, Slot

it's an interesting shout and you can see why united were sniffing around. It'd obviously be an enormous gamble and he doesn't have champions league/European experience

Gary O’Neill does fist pumps like Klopp to be fair

He’s one of the best young managers around tho whether he’s ready for this I don’t know. Liverpool could do much worse.

In this era of tactically astute managers I am averse to going for just a "motivator" and it's the new breed of managers which I believe is the reason Klopp is calling it a day; he knows his tactical inflexibility and inability to outmanoeuvre the opposition manager and rely on his usual 4-3-3 and set instructions are no longer cutting it; we have had poor results against Arsenal for example. Amorim or De Zerbi for me. Understand it's a question of money for Amorim and pleased to hear it isn't about philosophy or hierarchical set up. The money gap can be bridged. Get this over the line Michael Edwards please! With the Lavia, Caicedo debacle our standards have dropped - now that Edwards is back a swift, no-nonsense managerial appointment of Amorim will demonstrate a reinstatement of our lofty standards of pure professionalism and efficiency in matters relating to appointments.

Outside of Alonso and Amorim, no one available is good enough. Especially if this manager must not fail to get a major trophy (league or UCL) within his debut season to make it an acceptable season.

It looks like FSG and Edwards are not looking for serious choices... there is Flick, Inzagi and Nagellsman but we are looking to restart the project, what a joke... Top 4 and banter era are back

Absaloutly no frigging way. No where near the level we should be looking at, he hasnt had the experience so it would be a huge risk.

Thiago Motta has been doing great with Bologna, they are about to qualify to champions league.

From Klopp to this twonk...goodnight & good luck!

Hughes sacked O'Neill after a great job keeping Bournemouth up. There's no way we get him

I can't believe this .. This could very messy

Tuchel is a very good tactician and may fit in better with the Liverpool way of doing things than at Bayern or PSG - even if it's short term. Liverpool need a manager who is confident at the highest level.

The names we are linked with is very worrying. None of these managers are good enough. Might aswel call Rodgers back FFS 🤦🏼‍♂️ worrying times ahead

Out of all options that are on the table, Gary o'Neil must be the most boring pick of them all. Might as well be a wet blanket. He's done an alright job at Wolves and Bournemouth, but nothing spectacular, theres nothing to get excited about with him.

Choosing the wrong coach due to financial reasons, or if he is under management and accepts anything, will lead to Liverpool falling into the abyss The coach is the captain of the ship and is the one who guides him to safety FSG and Edwards, after he has a share in FSG, will become like them in thinking because it is all about profits and money in the pockets. Liverpool abandoned Amorim for financial reasons and wants to have control and say in the choices??? Mourinho-Conte - Tuchel I do not think that options are possible because they will expose FSG's stinginess to the world This is one of the reasons why Klopp has run out of energy, which is the dirty management. In the end, they are the owners of the investment Being stingy with a few million will cost the project team and the end of FSG They are good at cheating and manipulating the media and it is a sustainable model Simply after a kloop period We want a coach to win titles If FSG has the ambition, let's go If not, then let them sell the club to someone who values the aspirations of the fans We are tired of the toxic atmosphere in the FSG period. There is nothing smooth about it Drama drama

How long till big Sam is on the list.

Proper finished if this is the type of conversations we’re having Gary poxy O’Neil

Rather bring in Gerrard and go in for Alonso next season if Gerrard fails

#PakoAyestaran is assistant boss @ #AstonVilla

Looks like Varys from game of thrones is our next manager ffs. How do you go from klopp to Arne slot I’d rather have Arnie Scwartzenneger. De zerbi or Mourinho I’m not assed about what people say about Mourinho he’s a proven winner and would do well with us. Forget the history with Mourinho he would come in with passion and do his best and make us winners

We need ‘bounce-back-ability’ we need Dowie. If not, then Neil Warnock to be parachuted in from his country abode in Devon.

In a word no. Although in the future who knows as I think he's an excellent manager & has big potential. However that aside, I'll be VERY disappointed if Amorim goes to bloody West Ham instead of us?!? Not keen on any of the other known candidates. Some really poor options being talked about here. WTF is actually happening? I'm concerned. It's now occurred to me that it's becoming more & more likeky the next manager is a just a stop gap.

Damn, Liverpool is about to put us fans into depression mood very soon. Cheap owners don't wanna pay release clause

This is cause don't want to pay big fee for manager I think

We need Zidane!

Not a Snowballs chance in Hell.

i think hes a good manager and it wouldnt be hod*son levels but my word...........would be incredibly underwhelming

Richard Hughes believes he is not good enough for Bournemouth, what about Liverpool.

This is becoming an absolute mess. We’ve got three guys who are up for contracts three of our best players and we’re filling around and we can’t settle on a manager. In this video talks about absolutely nothing. Not looking promising at the moment.

I would go for Antonio Conte now give him a 2 year deal Conte is good for two seasons the he starts whining He is a winner id rather have conte than any of the spoken about ones Emery would be nice as well we cannot get a gaffer whos still learning his trade Conte is a top manager with nothing to prove

I don't know why we aren't getting Amorin? Provided he wants to join us over West Ham, why aren't we?

Heard he failed the Interview

No it would be Rodger’s or Hodgson all over he’s done nothing at Bournemouth. If Liverpool want to win the league any new manager has to have won a title as a minimum

No

Give José Mourinho 2 years contract

Really like him and think he will be a top manager but way too soon for him

Just hoping this is a very late April Fools Joke.

whoever we get were doomed. how the fk can you replace jurgen. hes the best manager in the world.

What are we doing ?

I'd rather bring Roy Hodgson back than bringing O'Neil in. 😂

What's happening Liverpool? are we now at the stage where we got names in a pot and just blind picking one out? If that's the case why not the Ipswich manager? has had a great season with them...please liverpool get it sorted...UP THE REDS!!!!

If it's not Amorim, then Unai Emery must be considered

What the hell is this club doing? We’re not even getting our 5th choice managers & players now? It’s embarrassing

No.I do think O'Neill is a good midtable level manager but not Liverpool level

Absolutely no way

I'd consider Stevie now, no messin

we're a mess

said it before and i will say it again, Zidane for 2 years and then go back for Alonso

Motta??

Bourrmaff ?? 😂

Can we get him cheap enough more like it

Who?

Only read the headline , are you f***ing kidding

Let us rot for a couple of seasons so all these clowns disrespecting Klopp realise what we had.

Next GrahamPotter
