This is just a way too negative way to look at things. You don't become a manager who is considered to be good enough for Liverpool, if your focus before taking the job is on how you are going to replace that legendary manager and how you then deal with replacing two great players and then coming to the conclusion that it's just too big a challenge. I would imagine top managers would rather look at what he'd team is like, what they can do with the players who are there and how they could strengthen the team. You don't need mourinho like arrogance, but top managers will have faith in their abilities. That doesn't mean they' can't be aware of the challenges, but they also will be focusing more on how they can overcome them instead of worrying about failing. I get the feeling that with Alonso it had nothing to do with having to follow klopp and replacing key players. It seems rather that he's eyeing the Real job next year.

Thats a very professional belief but the human in anyone will consider it in my opinion. Anyway my point isnt whether they will be intimidated by it, my point is around the reality of the situation and whether any manager we have been linked with is able to deal with that .

Some really fucking outrageously stupid takes on Robbo here in the last 2 pages.


Should read his thread - christ. Some people are getting what they want if he misses out Sunday

In Curtis' case, I think part of it is his tendency to pick up injuries right when his form is at its peak. But Elliott being left in the U-21s, despite having a better season than any United player, is baffling. There is no planet where Mainoo should be getting caps ahead of him. But just another example of Southgate being a chancer who bows to media darlings and unproven hype.

Who is Elliott getting in ahead of as an attacking midfielder?

Agreed they are but every club has to replace every player at some point that is how it is.

They are going to be hard to replace but so is KDB.

Our biggest loss is Klopp and as much of a twat that he is Pep is the same for City.

Nunez?

Maybe. Not yet though. But its Van Dijk and Salah as our absolute best so replacing them whilst also replacing a legend manager isnt easy and I think it will prove to be too difficult for the next manager.

Salah and Van Dijk are literally our two best outfield players. You also cant just disregard Robertson, he is still our best player on that side.
