Glad this is done early and we can plan.

Same level of anxiety if it was Xabi, Amiron or Slot. No guarantees and a period of transition and uncertainty ahead.

Let's get behind him and give him time.

Hope he gets us which is key to the relationship he will have with the fans.

Now find a number 6!

Klopp, an impossible person to follow (see Fergie and Moyes). So we go for Slot, not a big name in any shape but has won the league with Feyenoord and Hollands version of the FA Cup. So he follows Klopp, like a lamb to the slaughter and after 1 or 2 mediocre seasons we then get somebody big. Perhaps Xabi has won more and wants a change. Perhaps manager X X or X become available. I might be wrong but then I might be right in thinking this is a no brainer calculated loss. Say we bring in a big name now that can't follow Klopp, then what...this way the big name doesn't follow Klopp, he follows an under achieving Slot.
Obviously it goes without saying that I hope he does well, before anyone shoots me down.

Be assured that if he is shit, then he will get the sack. He wont be shift forever and ever.

Pretty similar sentiments myself all round. One thing that irks me is the timing, not sure why this couldn’t have waited until we said goodbye to Klopp.

I can understand what you mean with the timing. But at the same time, it can't wait until we're into the summer before we even approach him, and once we have approached him, it's very difficult to keep that out of the news. It was the same with Klopp announcing he was going - I could imagine both he and the club didn't want to make it public then, but their hand was forced.

Also, while the timing is a bit distracting from Jurgen's last few games, our form and the way the Klopp era is ending is pretty dreadful right now, so this could actually have a positive effect on the players to have certainty over what comes next.

It’s also a big win for certain players who currently seem like a bit of a misfit. Most notable are Elliott, Gakpo, Szobo.

Why is that?

It’s good to read all the positive comments.

Glad we’ll sign him before the season ends so he’ll have some time to do his research, think about the squad etc

slotter can watch the next few games now to do some homework before he starts
will be interesting to see if he speaks to klopp and pep to get there thoughts on the players

Yup. Happy that this is getting sorted early doors and he can do just that.
Good shout. He got to get in touch surley, though it wouldn't surprise me if it was Jurgen that reached out.
Going to be interesting if he rates the kids highly. Also Gravenberch, I hope he gets the nod he's part of the future. Do rate that lad and am a but bias.

Interesting summer ahead.


Oh, and Slotter
